11:24:57 *** warlord-afk is now known as warlord
11:25:06 <warlord> lebow: process it as a payment
11:25:26 <lebow> what is the payment account ?
11:27:26 <warlord> Whatever you want it to be; you can always change it later.
11:28:06 <warlord> choose anything in the dialog (e.g. your checking account), then in the register you can change it from your checking to, say, Income:Sales
11:29:03 *** gander has joined #gnucash
11:29:04 <lebow> well say I want to do this... Write an invoice for the work that I had to have some one else do ... and apply that invoice to the vendors balance
11:29:06 <lebow> can I do that ?
11:29:53 <Jaran|zZzZZz> i got a hierarchy of accounts and in the account overview the "total"-column correctly contains the sum of the totals of sub-accounts. but this doesn't work with columns like "cleared"
11:29:54 <Jaran|zZzZZz> if B is a sub-account of A then "cleared" shows the correct value for B but shows 0 for A
11:29:54 <Jaran|zZzZZz> Account Cleared Total
11:29:54 <Jaran|zZzZZz> A 0 150
11:29:55 <Jaran|zZzZZz> B 50 100
11:29:57 <Jaran|zZzZZz> C 30 50
11:30:01 *** Jaran|zZzZZz is now known as Jaran
11:30:03 <Jaran> why doesn't "Cleared" under A not show 80?
11:31:09 <warlord> lebow: That logic sounds backwards.. Why would one of your vendors need to pay one of your customers?
11:31:21 <warlord> Jaran: collapse the tree -- is it better then?
11:31:28 <lebow> sorry... another vendor
11:31:41 <Jaran> warlord: nope, still shows 0
11:31:47 <warlord> There's no way to tie vendors together.
11:31:57 <warlord> Jaran: then the cleared amounts aren't totaled.
11:32:17 <lebow> Is there any way to record the details of the charges and tie it to the vendor
11:32:34 <Jaran> warlord: well apparently not :P but is that a bug? or a feature? at least to me it doesn't appear to make sense
11:39:53 *** jmgreen has joined #gnucash
11:45:46 <warlord> lebow: there is no way to tie a one vendor bill to another vendor bill.
11:45:51 <warlord> Jaran: I dont know.
11:45:59 <warlord> Sorry guys, gotta run.
11:46:02 *** warlord is now known as warlord-afk
11:46:07 <Jaran> hehe ok
11:46:17 <Jaran> gonna file a RFE then i gues

14:14:25 <nowhere_man> hi
14:14:44 <nowhere_man> I'm trying to figure how to properly depreciate
14:15:05 *** warlord-afk is now known as warlord
14:15:21 <warlord> nowhere_man: periodic transfers from Asset:xxx to Expenses:Depreciation
14:15:50 <nowhere_man> in the guide, depreciation is an asset account
14:16:09 <nowhere_man> my only issue is that I lose track of the expense
14:16:32 <nowhere_man> that is, the computer I buy doesn't show up anymore in Expenses:Computers
14:16:59 <nowhere_man> but in Asset:Fixed Assets:Computer:Cost
14:17:33 *** twunder has joined #gnucash
14:18:03 <warlord> nowhere_man: that's correct, because when you buy an asset it ISNT an expense.
14:18:09 <warlord> The expense comes when you depreciate it.
14:18:26 *** jmgreen has quit IRC
14:19:11 <nowhere_man> I see, as it's an asset, I don't lose anything, I merely transform money into something material...
14:21:34 *** twunder has quit IRC
14:21:40 *** twunder has joined #gnucash
14:25:02 <warlord> exactly
14:25:45 *** twunder has quit IRC
14:25:51 *** twunder has joined #gnucash
14:28:34 <warlord> okay, i'm off again. later.

17:41:53 <nowhere_man> hi back
17:42:10 <nowhere_man> I just installed GnuCash 2.2.0 for a friend, under Windows XP
17:42:16 *** cortana has joined #gnucash
17:42:20 <nowhere_man> she has two issues, though:
17:43:26 <nowhere_man> 1) she can't use the dot on the keypad to add decimals
17:43:48 <nowhere_man> she has to use the comma on the central part of the keyboard, which is annoying
17:44:07 <nowhere_man> 2) GnuCash freezes pretty often
17:44:30 <nowhere_man> I didn't find anything about the dot in the preferences, can it be changed?
17:44:41 <nowhere_man> and are the freezes a known issue?
17:47:45 *** benoitg has joined #gnucash
18:23:50 *** andi5 has joined #gnucash
18:23:50 *** gncbot sets mode: +o andi5
18:24:22 <andi5> nowhere_man: for the freezes, take a look at http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=395327
18:26:54 <andi5> wrt the decimal.... what regional settings does your friend use? in the control panel, regional settings, there are "standards and formats", "location" and "language for non-unicode programs"... you might take a deeper look at the adjustments of "standards and formats"
18:28:50 <nowhere_man> I suppose she don't want all numbers to be displayed with a dot, just the dot to be parsed as decimal separator
18:35:00 <andi5> well, just post your answers here, i have to leave.... better yet you entered a bug at http://bugzilla.gnome.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=GnuCash (unless there is already one (http://bugzilla.gnome.org/query.cgi))
