Re: [GNC] TXF Categories

I have separate accounts for these; however, what I enter are guesses, as some mutual funds have dividends that are partially qualified. I don't find out until I received the 1099-DIV at the end of the year. On Fri, Mar 14, 2025 at 1:24 PM Fred Tydeman wrote: > Is it possible to edit or add to

[GNC] "Inf" in stock data => cannot update prices

In trying to do my weekly stock price update in GnuCash 5.10 in Fedora Linux 41, one of my stocks returned "Inf" in one of the price fields. It is similar to the problem I had with this stock in the past where there was a "NaN" value. I understand "Inf" is short for infinity and results from non-

Re: [GNC] TXF Categories

This is why I let my accountant do the details. I have been confusing Qualified Capital Gains with capital gains in Qualified Plans such as 401-K or IRA. I would still put each 'category' in a separate account so the accountant can sort it all out. On Fri, Mar 14, 2025 at 6:49 PM Fred Tydeman w

As a comment, I feel not having an easier form of tracking is something that possibly might be fixed in the future. I have Rental properties, & tried to set up an AP & AR for them but found it a bit daunting. (Awfully hard to undo too!). I do need a rental management system though. Most renters

Re: [GNC] TXF Categories

David, Fred is referring specifically to the assignment of txf categories in the tax options portion of GnuCash accounts. These txf categories are assigned to one or more GnuCash accounts and allow a user in theory to export their tax data directly to tax software. I would argue that, in this

Re: [GNC] Tracking UnPaid Bills

Hi. I'd just set such accounts up as sub-accounts under Liabilities. Using your example (electricity) 1) Create an "Electricity" account under "Liabilites" (alternatively, you could use the provider as the name of the account 2) Using your $120 bill as an example, when you pay $60 and owe them $60

Eric, you seem to be missing a couple of steps in your cost accounting at the point of sale ( apart from not actually making a profit on your work. You are not clearing the Assets :Inventory:Finished Goods account. This is normally cleared to an Expense:Cost of Goods Sold account by crediting th

One possible cause of this issue is that you entered a transaction at the Brokerage 1 level and then changed the account to a placeholder. Check the details of the Brokerage1 account, uncheck the placeholder flag, then open the account and see if there are any transactions. Move them accordingly

Re: [GNC] Tracking UnPaid Bills

Probably the easiest method would be to set up the companies as suppliers, using Gnucash's business function; when the bill comes in enter it into their supplier account. Then when you make a payment record it against the supplier as a part payment of the invoice. You will then be able to see which

Re: [GNC] Tracking UnPaid Bills

Yes, you COULD switch to accrual basis accounting. In which case you would enter the bill into "payables" (and the example expense "electricity). But doing that in personal accounting where MOST expenses not billed might be excessive << you are in effect naturally "cash basis" for most of your

Re: [GNC] "Inf" in stock data => cannot update prices

Fred, It returned “Inf” for dividend yield, which isn’t a number GnuCash cares about, but perhaps the parser expected a number and complained. What error did you get? Did GnuCash crash? FWIW, I tried just now and yahoo_json returned > /Applications/Gnucash.app/Contents/MacOS/gnucash-cli -V -Q
