01:32:52 *** assid has joined #gnucash
01:32:57 <assid> heya
01:33:19 <assid> im kinda new to gnucash..
01:33:41 <assid> is there any way to convert categories back into categegories instead of seperate ledgers
01:34:29 <assid> or ledgers which arent "my" acccounts ?
01:34:34 <mishehu> there's really no such thing as categories
01:34:41 <mishehu> they're all account types of some sort
01:34:55 <assid> like if i pay XYZ service.. its showing up as an accout on my main accounts list
01:34:59 <assid> but its not my account
01:35:00 <mishehu> that's simply how gnucash operates. it's called dual-entry
01:35:19 <assid> right i understand in accounts theres a dual entry for every debit theres a credit
01:35:45 <mishehu> I have no idea what you mean by it showing in the main account. what's the main account? there's a tree of accounts
01:35:52 <assid> okay
01:36:07 <mishehu> if you could describe ina little more detail it would help
01:36:20 <assid> if assid pays mishehu from his ABC BANK. why is mishehu showing up in the accounts listing
01:36:34 <mishehu> what's the account listing?
01:36:47 <mishehu> that's the part I'm not understanding
01:36:48 <assid> every account ever transacted against..
01:37:04 <mishehu> you mean like Expenses::Utilities or something?
01:37:05 <assid> like if i pay you from my bank account.. it shows my bank account and it shows your account
01:37:20 <mishehu> yes, that's how its supposed to work
01:37:36 <assid> but i just want to see the accounts owned by me..
01:37:48 <assid> the transaction/ledgers i credit /debited from should come under that
01:37:58 <mishehu> if I pay my electric bill from Assets::Current Assets::Some Bank, it has a second half of the transaction that posts to Expenses::Utilities::Electric
01:38:24 <assid> hr,mmm i think i need to understand how to do this correctly
01:39:04 <jsled> http://code.gnucash.org/docs/guide/txns-registers1.html
01:39:13 <assid> also i would like to have this be able to interoperate the data between my phone app and gnu cash (im using easy money on android)
01:40:52 *** JasonBoxLaptop has joined #gnucash
01:51:47 <assid> can i export into qif ?
02:02:59 <assid> okay i think im understanding how to work with this...
02:03:11 <assid> now my problem is. how do i make it work with my mobile app...
02:03:34 <assid> i dont wanna have to make multiple entries twice
02:47:56 <assid> is there any alternate /addon for android support
02:48:04 <assid> id really like to have a singular system for all this

23:23:36 <mishehu> unfortunately I don't think any of us want to advise you on how to do your tax return
23:23:55 <mishehu> the laws are complex and vary from region to region
