Yes, I appreciate the comment.
In my original post I mentioned that I was testing out an app called
backblaze, an automatic backup to the the cloud. I asked where and how I
would find the GNU backups, since the folder where GNU stuff is saved is
full of files, and would have been backed up by

No, you risk data loss at the point of opening the backup.

Interesting!
I am running GC v3.4 on Window 10 Home and updated to 1809 (Build 17763.292) a
couple of days ago.
GnuCash continues to run without any problem.

You should speak with a local CPA, but I’d posit that if you receive a bill for
the full amount, then the taxes are all for one year and belong in that year.
You are simply being allowed to pay the bill in installments but it is
otherwise fully owed.
There might be a hitch if the bill received

Not sure exactly what you mean with respect to "a different heading."
As a general rule, I’d enter all transactions in the account the money is
coming from.
So if you are entering an expense, open your cash or checking account that you
are using to pay the expense, and enter it there.
Hi,
my general rule of thumb is to always entering from an asset or
liability account.
(Which might have something to do with the fact that in the software I
use at work one account is autofilled from the last transaction).
This way its also easier to keep track of bank accounts balance

Gareth,
There is no way that GnuCash automatically debits or credits an asset
account when you enter a transaction from an income or expense account. You
have to manually enter the second part of the transaction to create the
appropriate debit or credit to the asset account. When you have entered

What version of GNuCash are you using and on what platform
(Linux/Windows/MacOS)?
How were you trying to import your data from the bank? Directly using an
on-line connection or by downloading a datafile and then importing that file
into GnuCash?
If the latter what was the format of the d
From within the /Applications folder right-click on Gnucash.app and choose
‘open’.
You will be asked if you want to open an app that was downloaded from the
internet. You of course want to.
GnuCash should launch.
From then on, you can keep it in your dock and launch from there.

Adrie
