10:13:10 *** sfalanga has joined #gnucash
10:14:32 <sfalanga> I would like to move my customer information to a new file. I've exported the "customer" list in .qsf format. Is it possible to import it into another file?
10:15:08 <sfalanga> I only see where you can import .qif, OXF/QXF and a host of other options I know nothing about. Thanks in advance.
10:17:33 <jsled> I don't believe you can import that QSF, no.
10:20:18 <sfalanga> Is it possible to change a .qsf file into a different format (perhaps .csv) that can then be imported?
10:20:40 <jsled> I don't believe there's any way to import customer, &c. information.
10:20:56 <sfalanga> <jsled> Thank you.
10:20:59 <jsled> Perhaps your best bet is to take your existing file, make a copy, and strip *out* all the transactions that are irrelevant.
10:21:18 <sfalanga> Okay, thanks.
10:26:46 <warlord> There is no way to import Business data
10:34:43 <sfalanga> warlord thank you.
10:35:06 <warlord> you're welcome.

15:37:00 *** elnino has joined #gnucash
15:38:09 <elnino> hello. I'm trying to figure out how to import csv into gnucash, and I'm having NO luck with calc2qif. The developer seems to have gone awol.
15:38:58 *** BadRabbit has joined #gnucash
15:39:10 <elnino> Or, has anyone used MT2OFX? It is this a more preferred method? (yes, iI'm running on windows)
15:39:34 <elnino> I'm getting this information from qnucash's wiki.
15:39:54 <elnino> and hoping to find some insight from those who have used these.
15:42:35 <warlord> I've never used any of those conversion programs.
15:44:18 <elnino> out of 20 some banks I use, there had to be ONE that only provides csv - can you believe it? and it's discovercard. What a pain!
15:44:34 <elnino> the rest all provide qfx or qif or ofx
15:46:43 <warlord> I'm pretty sure DC does OFX-DC?
15:47:16 <jsled> http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/OFX_Direct_Connect_Bank_Settings
15:47:41 <elnino> They only do it within the quicken and quickbooks progrma. They do not allow me to download anything but csv from their website.
15:47:59 <warlord> elnino: gnucash supports OFX-DC
15:48:57 <BadRabbit> hello together
15:48:58 <elnino> oh. I guess i just download from each of their sites and import manaully. So you're saying that I can directconnect to discovercard? as if I owned quicken or quickbooks?
15:49:25 <BadRabbit> does anybody know a location to download a windows package containing aqbanking3?
15:52:42 <warlord> elnino: yes
15:53:09 <warlord> BadRabbit: You should ask the AqB people. Why are you asking us?
15:53:15 <elnino> cool. ok. thanks warlord and jsled
15:53:22 <warlord> (We build it as part of the Win32 GnuCash build)
15:54:12 <BadRabbit> warlord: I was asking here, since I the gnucash win-installer from sf contains an aqb lib, but version 2, which is pretty old
15:54:27 <BadRabbit> warlord: aqb itself offers only lib-sources
15:55:33 <warlord> You cant upgrade to aqb 3 without rebuilding gnucash anyways.. it's not a drop-in replacement.
15:57:14 <BadRabbit> yes, I already was afraid of that, and this is, why I was asking for a full package. I was hoping, there somebody would be offering one out there
15:58:06 *** twunder has joined #gnucash
15:58:34 <BadRabbit> I normaly compile libs and programs with gentoo, but have got no experience on compiling for a win enviroment. but maybe I can build a working pkg by myself
16:00:35 <warlord> I thought 2.2.9 shipped with AqB 3..
16:01:21 <warlord> [ot] Very useful website: http://doihavetheswineflu.com/
16:06:12 <jsled> heh

16:08:29 *** bebo has joined #gnucash
16:09:49 <bebo> hello
16:11:06 <bebo> Could anybody help me about the configuration of funds online?
16:11:12 *** BadRabbit has left #gnucash
16:12:53 <bebo> hello
16:14:17 <bebo> hi
16:17:57 <elnino> hi.
16:18:32 <bebo> hi elnino
16:18:34 <elnino> I see you, but I don't know much about funds. I was hoping to learn
16:18:50 <elnino> from any answers given to your question. Sorry.
16:18:58 <bebo> You could get the real value for a fund?
16:19:44 <elnino> I looked at funds once and got all confused. So I've been focusing on my banks and credit card stuff.
16:19:51 <elnino> so, no. =)
16:20:09 <bebo> DO you know where find information in the web?
16:20:34 *** JimRaehl2 has left #gnucash
16:21:26 <elnino> umm. I found the wiki: http://wiki.gnucash.org
16:21:38 <elnino> and there was documentation... somewhere... let me look.
16:21:59 <bebo> I know but I didnt find this information
16:22:06 <elnino> http://www.gnucash.org/docs.phtml
16:22:43 <elnino> I didn't bother looking for docs on funds. My priority was to get my budgeting in line. After that I'm definately tackling investments/funds
16:23:37 <warlord> bebo: do you have a specific question? (one that isn't covered in the docs?)
16:23:38 *** chris has quit IRC
16:23:44 <elnino> sorry, I can't be much help.
16:23:54 <bebo> Ok, I get to have the values for the market
16:24:17 <bebo> If you have problems with this I can help you
16:24:58 *** chris has joined #gnucash
16:25:09 <bebo> Hello chris
16:25:43 <elnino> bebo: http://svn.gnucash.org/docs/guide/chapter_invest.html
16:26:08 <bebo> Hello warlord, Idont find how obtain the online value for funds
16:26:25 *** MechtiIde has quit IRC
16:27:08 <warlord> bebo: what's the URL of the quote source?
16:27:15 <bebo> I put, for example, LU0115764192 in CUSIP but dont work
16:27:40 <warlord> CUSIP doesn't matter. It's the Mnemonic.
16:28:06 <bebo> Is a codification
16:28:35 *** kielein has quit IRC
16:28:37 <bebo> I want to know the value for parvest europe dividend
16:29:08 <warlord> bebo: what's the URL where you can find that price on the web?
16:29:25 <bebo> I write the LU... in the CUSIP position
16:29:42 <bebo> I try in Yahoo
16:30:09 <warlord> bebo: the CUSIP is irrelevant. The only thing that matters is the Mnemonic.
16:30:10 <bebo> Could I send you a picture?
16:30:13 <warlord> bebo: no.
16:30:20 <warlord> First you need to answer my question.
16:30:32 <warlord> Then you need to put the stock symbol in the mnemonic.
16:30:50 <warlord> then you need to tell gnucash to look for the price at the price source that has valid prices.
16:30:51 <bebo> OK, I have to empty the CUSIP
16:31:14 <bebo> sorry,
16:31:18 <warlord> You can put whatever you want in the CUSIP. It's IRRELEVANT.
16:31:26 <bebo> ok
16:31:50 <bebo> What I put in the mnemonic?
16:32:04 <warlord> The quote symbol as per the quote source.
16:32:15 <warlord> er, the stock/fund symbol as per the quote source.
16:32:40 <bebo> one moment I go to open yahoo
16:34:23 <bebo> ok, in this page http://es.finsearch.yahoo.com/es/index.php?s=es_sort&nm=parvest+europe+dividend&tp=F&r=*&sub=Buscar
16:34:37 <bebo> I look for
16:34:52 <bebo> Parvest Europe Dividend L Acc
16:35:26 <bebo> I only find the symbol, isin, market ant type
16:35:47 <bebo> I write in the mnemonic "Parvest Europe Dividend L Acc"
16:36:12 <bebo> but whe I press to get the current price He give an error
16:36:40 <bebo> I dont have problems with
16:37:30 <bebo> wall street values, or ibex values
16:37:46 <bebo> I only can get the funds values
16:38:12 <warlord> mnemonic == symbol
16:38:26 <bebo> I understood
16:38:54 <bebo> I going to try
16:39:09 <warlord> So put in LU0111493325EUR for the Symbol, and Yahoo Europe for the quote source.
16:39:47 <bebo> ok i going to test, one moment
16:40:21 <warlord> But I dont think that will work.
16:40:30 <warlord> I think it's a problem with the yahoo_europe quote grabber.
16:40:59 <warlord> (it doesn't have the date or currency)
16:41:00 <bebo> dont work
16:41:08 <warlord> I think the problem is F::Q.
16:41:15 <warlord> Try asking on the gnucash-user list.
16:41:42 <bebo> who is or where i can do it?
16:42:12 <warlord> T H E G N U C A S H - U S E R M A I L I N G L I S T
16:42:22 <bebo> in the www page?
16:44:01 <bebo> ok, warlord, thanks for your time
16:45:06 <warlord> you're welcome.
16:45:14 <warlord> I think that you need a patched F::Q
