12:44:30 <Asali> I create several personnal report but if I can create them, I can not delet them form my personnal report menu
12:50:02 *** ErKa has quit IRC
12:53:57 <warlord> Ah, so you want to remove a Saved (Custom) Report... There's no way to do that in the UI. You need to exit gnucash and then edit your saved-reports file.
12:54:00 <warlord> (by hand)
12:55:43 *** tim_abell has joined #gnucash
12:58:18 <Asali> How I can edit them
12:59:04 <warlord> "them"?
12:59:27 <warlord> choose your favorite text editor, open the saved-reports file, and remove the report settings from there.
13:00:37 <Marcel> On wich folder I can find this saved-reports file

17:24:50 <olsen> warlord, i've thought of it... when i have a book open (expense account for an example, or my bank account) - i want to be able to press "lock transactions" and then the program must ask me to confirm the action and then all actions within must be locked (also splits must be locked and the transactions must ofcause be locked on all affected books) - how much would that cost?

18:17:21 <daum> hi all i'm having aproblem doing payroll, I need to pay an employee of my company, i'm trying to follow the gnucash guide, but i don't see where the person ever actually gets paid
18:18:11 <daum> could somehone help me out here
18:30:16 <daum> it seems like i should just do a entry in my assets->checking to credit it and debit expenses payroll? no?

19:34:32 <artisted> Hello everyone, i'm looking for some informations, i'm using Gnucash for my cie, and i'm trying to do a report of earnigs and spending (with details of all categories) from the first day of the year to the last day of a year, ,, how could i do this ?
19:35:36 *** nomeata has quit IRC
19:39:38 *** XiXaQ has quit IRC
19:40:54 *** XiXaQ has joined #GnuCash
20:08:13 <warlord> daum: Yes, you would credit checking and debit expenses:payroll.
20:08:42 <warlord> artisted: not sure what "cie" is but.... Profit&Loss report is what you want.
20:09:27 <warlord> olsen: "when you have a book open" -- do you mean "register open"? Because then you go and say "expense account for an example" which leads me to think you mean "when [i] have a register open"...
20:10:05 <warlord> And then... what transactions does it lock? ALL the transactions in the register? What about those that haven't cleared? Or those that cleared on this side but not the other? Or transactions that are post dated (in the future)?
20:10:16 <warlord> artisted: you're welcome.
20:10:21 <warlord> (please respond here)
20:10:32 <warlord> ... it's rude to PM without asking permission first.
20:11:16 <daum> warlord, the question i have is how do i get it to show up so when i go to emplyoee reports that i paid him?
20:11:36 <warlord> what do you mean "employee reports"? What employee report?
20:11:50 <daum> uh
20:12:08 <daum> reports->business->employee report
20:12:27 *** tim_abell has quit IRC
20:13:01 *** artisted_ has joined #gnucash
20:13:19 <artisted_> warlord: i do i specify it, which date to date i want him to calculate ?
20:15:03 <warlord> daum: Oh, that's not about payroll at all. That's for employee "expense report" reporting.
20:15:24 <warlord> artisted: sure, set that in the report options, just like every other report.
20:16:06 *** jcreigh has quit IRC
20:16:12 <daum> warlord, oh i'm just trying to figure out what report will show me the total amount paid to them? since I don't see where gnucash will know that i paid them if i just credit my checking and debit expense payroll
20:16:42 <warlord> daum: Profit&Loss report.
20:17:19 <artisted_> warlord: when i do in the report collum and select profit and loss, it set the report without asking me and preferences
20:17:32 <daum> warlord, cashflow?
20:18:21 <warlord> daum: sure, that would work too.
20:18:40 <daum> warlord, but it doesn't show the expnse to a certain employee over the year
20:18:47 <warlord> artisted: yessss...... it used the default settings.....
20:18:50 <warlord> and...???
20:19:05 <daum> ie, in next january i will need to do a 1099 for each of my employees so i need to know the total paid to each
20:19:09 <daum> how do i figure that out?
20:19:12 <warlord> daum: does that employee have their own Expense:Payroll account?
20:19:25 <daum> ohh
20:19:27 <daum> smart=)
20:20:17 *** artisted has quit IRC
20:21:03 <warlord> :)
20:21:15 <daum> thanks
20:21:24 <daum> was reading the docs thought i was going to be doing crazy splits and stuff=)
20:22:40 <warlord> daum: You dont need crazy splits as an employer.
20:22:49 <artisted_> warlord: how do i change the default settings ?
20:27:43 <warlord> artisted_: As I said... in the report options.
20:29:15 <artisted_> warlord: and where would be those options ?
20:29:42 <warlord> See that button labeled "Options" in the toolbar?
20:29:48 <warlord> Or... in the Edit Menu?
20:30:23 <artisted_> under edit i have preferences, style sheets and tax options
20:36:46 <warlord> Do you have the report up in the window?
20:37:33 <artisted_> warlord: yes
20:38:24 <warlord> Ummm... What version of gnucash is this?
20:38:41 <artisted_> 1.8.11
20:38:51 <warlord> See that button labeled "Options" on the toolbar? It's between Export and Print.
20:39:06 <warlord> AHHHHH!!!!!! Geeze, that's old. Yeah, okay, that doesn't have the menu option.
20:39:23 <warlord> Umm, I dont even remember what the 1.8 interface looks like anymore; I haven't run 1.8 in ... 5 years?
20:39:30 <warlord> 2.4 is current.
20:40:49 <warlord> (if you don't see it... try making the window bigger)
20:40:59 <artisted_> warlord: ok,, ,i'm using a mac and it's so complicated to upgrade , i dont know exactly how to do it, even when i did it some years ago
20:41:14 <warlord> did you use fink or macports?
20:41:34 <artisted_> i dont remember
20:41:36 <warlord> gnucash2 has been out there for years! ....
20:41:40 <warlord> You really should update.
20:41:48 <warlord> 1.8 is ... OLD.. and really not supported anymore.
20:42:01 <artisted_> i know i have fink commander but it doesnt update the list
20:42:54 <artisted_> is there anywhere a .dmg or .zip for gnucash 2. x
20:43:19 <warlord> no.
20:45:09 <warlord> sudo fink install gnucash2
20:45:16 <warlord> You might need to "fink selfupdate" first.
20:48:44 <artisted_> ok,, and how do i do that ?
20:51:46 <warlord> which part didn't you understand?
20:52:31 <artisted_> i guess all the parts
20:53:51 <warlord> http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/MacOSXInstallation
20:54:03 <warlord> I already told you what commands to type ...
20:54:45 <artisted_> those commands you type it in which window ?,, i'm sorry but i dont understand well that part
20:55:43 <warlord> terminal
20:56:21 <artisted_> ok thanks
