09:02:55 <Johnny> I have trouble with HBCI. I've successfully configured AqHBCI for two banks (different companies, different servers etc.); I can get transactions and balance just fine, for multiple accounts at both banks. But I cannot issue transactions with both banks; both complain about "impossible to issue a transaction with zero amount" (they banks are german, so I only have a german error message, sorry). Is there a known bug in the current stab
09:02:55 <Johnny> or AqHBCI (both were downloaded a few weeks ago, GC 2.2.9 with libaqhbci-10.dll 2.3.3.0, Windows XP)?

09:30:05 <Johnny> Oh, and for whatever reason my client disconnects me frequently - I'll be checking the HTML logs for answers later ;-)

09:33:46 <cashnewb> I want to set GNUCash up first of all to handle business expenses only (invoicing, no payroll). How do I do this without setting up all the other accounts? Also, if I want to track personal expenses, I don't find a way to set up an account without having to define in initial balance. Any help there?
09:34:09 <jsled> good, because gnucash can't do payroll. :)
09:34:19 <jsled> you can select only the business accounts, if you wish.
09:34:23 <cashnewb> Well at least I'm off on the right foot :)
09:34:24 <jsled> the Common accounts aren't required.
09:34:33 <jsled> you don't need to enter opening balances, either.
09:34:46 <cashnewb> Really. I actually read the documentation and thought it said that.
09:34:56 <jsled> Opening balances are just appropriately-dated transactions against Equity:Opening Balances … you can add them later.
09:35:48 <cashnewb> And all subsequent balances will be adjusted after a backdated Opening Balance, I guess.
09:35:55 <jsled> yup
09:36:33 <cashnewb> So any transactions can be entered any time. That's very handy.
09:56:40 <cashnewb> Did you ever think of setting '/ignore * crap' in your logs so that all the joins and parts don't clutter the discussion?
10:04:59 <jsled> nope

16:49:44 *** warlord-afk is now known as warlord
16:50:03 <warlord> raleightile: I believe it takes it from the "memo" of the posted invoice or payment txns
16:54:07 <warlord> johnny: you might want to ask on the gnucash-de mailing list, as HBCI is germany-specific.
16:58:02 <raleightile> warlord: I have Job / Billing ID / Notes
16:58:29 <raleightile> on payment I have a memo
16:59:00 <raleightile> so maybe it is just empty on the lines showing Invoice?
17:01:08 <warlord> When you post the invoice it asks you to enter a memol..
