Well, it seems odd to me that "Double" display (as Adrien noted)(thank

also odd to me that the report knows to switch the values of the
individual transactions, but is unable to remember that fact when it
comes to the total

I have searched, looked, and read what I could find about journal entries in
GC but I am no closer to understanding what I need to do to enter a journal
entry. I am not an accountant and am using GC for my personal bookkeeping. I
have entered journal entries in Quickbooks in the past but don't
Enter the date and description. On the first time Credit Cash for the amount.
On the second line, Debit Drugs for the amount.
That should do it.

I'm not sure how this is a challenge, especially since both John and
David C. pointed you in the right direction in the docs. Perhaps you are
associating the term "Journal entry" with something special?
To begin, set your View preference to "Basic" and on the
Preferences:Accounts tab, uncheck
Hello,
The attached screen shot shows three iterations of a standard Piechart.
Each has its own set of accounts and slices, but each is set to plot its
chart to the same 485 by 240 dimensions--and yet, each one is clearly a
different size! While the first is an Expense piechart, I believe that

I think Frank is on the right track. The original poster is coming from
Quicken which I have never used. I think it is similar to Quickbooks
which I have used a little. Journal entries are used for corrections,
some transfers between accounts, etc., in Quickbooks.
Gnucash does not have a special n
This is also similar to NetSuite, which is an on-line double entry
bookkeeping service, and where "journal entries" are a special case
transaction, even though by definition everything is really a journal entry.

Hi All,
I've been using GnuCash for several years now, tolerating the bugs and
idiosyncrasies on the hope that it would improve with time. That hope has been
borne out to some degree, but I'm still waiting on many issues. It's been a
while since I bothered to install a new version, so I am aga
I agree, the FAQ example is incorrect. It doesn’t reverse the sign of
Business:Expenses when it should.
Even if that were a contra-income account, it would still normally have a debit
balance (+) and get reversed.
The same goes for using the ‘Credit Accounts’ setting.

I could understand why a chart with more slices might default to a larger size,
but it appears the bottom two charts both have 3 slices, yet are different
sizes.
However, since they are set to all be the same size, they should all be the
same size.
What happens if you use the percentage option

Thank you for your interest. The first day of the week is, of course, a

Thanks for the insights.
How does first day of the week affect reports in GnuCash? The only report I can
think of that might be an issue is the Expenses/Income vs. Day of the week, but
each day is reported separately, though Sunday is listed first in the key, it
is a pie chart. All other

From that page it seems that they didn’t provide a means for setting first day
of the week.

locale and either edit or add the line:

Hi Guys,
I'm having a problem figuring out how to move the vertical lines

mouse cursor on the vertical line, hold down the right mouse button, and
move left or right to change the width of of the columns. When I do

Any tab open when you exit should be re-loaded when you next open GnuCash.
So just have the Cash account register open when you close the app.

Running ver 3.6 now but one of the prior versions allowed me to use my mouse
scroll wheel to cycle through the open tabs. I can no longer do that, so I
have reverted to putting the tabs on the left side instead of across the top
to allow quick access to them. Otherwise, I had to hit the right arrow
James,
Keep in mind that in the register view the description column is a special
case that essentially defaults to use all the space that is not explicitly
given to other columns.
This means setting the other widths first, then dragging the right edge of
the description column title box leftward
Rick,
Do you keep the mouse pointer over the the tab area when scrolling?

Hi Ken,
Thanks for thinking about my little problem. However, I don't see how this
would help. The regular Mac interface gives me the option to change the start
of the week from the locale's default. GnuCash should be reading that change
like all the other date-aware applications. It does not.
Hi Frank,
Thank you for thinking about my little problem.
I don't understand why we would assume this is a bug in GTK. If GnuCash tells
GTK to create a calendar with Sundays as the first day of the week, it should
obey. The problem is that some code is not looking at the locale setting on my

Maybe I'm being thick here, but it's still not easy. We need to start with
the knowledge that *internally* income amounts are negative -- after all
they usually balance with positive asset amounts. Also, liability amounts
are also internally negative, but no one seems to have a problem with that.

I tried it today on Debian.
I have set up some accounts as Liabilities and want to change them to Income.
This can’t be done by deleting the accounts and transferring the transactions
to another account because only Liability Accounts are offered as alternative
destinations.
I would like to export the transactions to CSV,
