07:53:14 <px`-> hallo alle zusammen. Ich hätte mal eine frage zu gnucash in begriff mit Kassenzetteln. Nutze das programm für private zwecke um meine finanzen ein wenig im überblick zu behalten. meine frage wäre, ob ich einen kassenzettel vom enkauf eingeben kann und die ganzen einzelnen produkte ihren jeweiligen aufwendungen zuordnen kann. mit mehrteilige buchen steig ich nicht durch und ist meiner meinung nach auch nicht das richtige. wäre super wenn d
08:08:35 <Fabzgy> Also es gibt Split Buchungen aber willst du das wirklich sogenau eingeben?
08:12:54 <px`-> naja ich würde schon gern unterscheiden was obst/gemüse fleisch/käse oder einfach nur (schrott) sorry gekauft wurde. bin leider einer der alles gern im überblick hat auch wenns kleinigkeiten sind
08:16:41 *** warlord-afk is now known as warlord
08:16:56 <warlord> xnox: are you sure you meant to post that here? this is gnucash, not ubiquity
08:17:42 <xnox> lol =)
08:17:54 * xnox hates xchat!
08:18:05 <xnox> warlord: no wonder nobody replied! =)
08:18:35 <xnox> warlord: my ubiquity issue is sorted now, so just nevermind me =)
08:18:45 <warlord> xnox: okay.
08:19:16 <warlord> as for px`- and Fabzgy I hope you two are helping each other. Nobody else here speaks German
08:22:05 <Fabzgy> also wie gesagt - Split Buchungen gibt es
08:22:27 <Fabzgy> Wir benutzen die für unsere Vorsteuerabrechnung
08:24:26 <warlord> Fabzgy: again, no clue what you just said.
08:24:56 <Fabzgy> warlord: should I talk in px`- in a query or is it okay to continue here?
08:25:09 *** ricardobain has quit IRC
08:25:14 <Fabzgy> if noone else speaks german we could continue in a queri
08:25:17 <warlord> If it's gnucash related it's okay here.. But you might want to translate at the end
08:25:39 <Fabzgy> he basicly asks how he can divide / split transactions
08:26:04 <Fabzgy> If he has a receipt from the upermarket he wants to divide it into meat, cheese, etc
08:26:31 <warlord> Ah! A simple question.. :)
08:26:45 <warlord> Do you have the simple answer?
08:31:51 <Fabzgy> Well I told him to split his transactions
08:32:06 * Fabzgy actually does not know if px`- is male or female
08:32:48 <Fabzgy> But I did not find a good explanation for split transactions to forward
08:34:16 <warlord> px`-: Do you speak English? If so I can walk you through entering a Split transaction (even though a description exists in the English guide, too)
08:35:25 <px`-> sorry dont speak english. only a bit schoolenglish ;)
08:36:52 <warlord> px`-: :) Well, entering a Split transaction is easy enough. I'll try to explain it in English, and if you don't understand maybe Fabzgy can translate?
08:36:58 <Fabzgy> ok
08:37:45 <warlord> I presume you are running in Basic Transaction mode, where you see one line per transaction in your register.
08:38:08 <warlord> Start by entering the transaction normally. Date, Description (I would put the store name here).
08:38:31 <warlord> For the Transfer Account, enter one of your Expense account targets. Doesn't matter which one. E.g., Expenses:Food
08:39:11 <warlord> In the Withdrawal Column (I'm assuming a Bank account, but the same works for any other account) put the total amount for the transaction, e.g. €50
08:39:44 <warlord> Do NOT hit enter. Instead, click on the Split button in the toolbar. This will expand the transaction for you.
08:40:19 <warlord> Each line will be a Split. The total of all Splits must equal zero (or, more succinctly, the total of entries on the left and total of entries on the right must be the same).
08:40:30 <warlord> Generally you will only need to make entries on one side.
08:40:54 <warlord> Now, change the number in the line for Expenses:Food to what you really spent on Food.
08:41:18 <warlord> Then click the down arrow to exist that line (or you can use Tab to go off the end of the line -- your choice -- tab might be easier)
08:41:38 <warlord> It will now create a new Split for you to use, and fill in the remainder of the balance automatically.
08:42:16 <warlord> Put in the next Expense account, Expenses:Beer. And adjust the amount accordingly. Lather, Rinse, Repeat until you've used your total.
08:42:31 <warlord> Then at the end you can hit "Enter" to commit your transaction.
08:52:39 <px`-> Ok I'll test it later. Now I have to go pick up my son from day care and shopping.
08:53:03 <px`-> I'll call again later

15:48:33 *** Fabzgy has quit IRC
15:49:14 <julliano> ?
15:50:02 <marco471> hallo: urgent and simple question>> is accrual based accounting possible in GnuCash ?
15:51:10 <warlord> marco471: of course!
15:51:22 <warlord> In fact, the biz features are, by definition, accrual-based accounting.
15:53:30 *** Askarii has quit IRC
15:53:37 <fell> marco471: currently the GnuCash business features are accrual based only. Cash based account is currently not supported.
15:53:42 <marco471> thankyou warlord! how do I get this done on Invoices? I am not finding a way to get the revenue on a different date than payment!
15:54:08 <warlord> marco471: ??? The revenue gets posted on the date you post the invoice!
15:54:25 <warlord> How are you getting revenue on the payment date??
15:56:11 <marco471> when I pay an invoice it gets on the revenue account on the same date and not the posting date
15:56:25 <marco471> I use portuguese in Brazil
15:59:05 <marco471> what am I doing wrong?
15:59:54 <warlord> Probably using the wrong accounts. Process Payment would only go from A/R -> Bank. So I don't see how it's showing revenue.
16:00:06 <warlord> Posting an invoice is Income -> A/R
16:00:21 <warlord> Are you using the business features? (Business -> Customer -> New Invoice)
16:01:12 <marco471> Yes Business etc
16:01:20 *** ricardobain has joined #gnucash
16:01:39 <marco471> what do you mean by A/R?
16:02:42 <marco471> Account Receivaable OK
16:05:02 <marco471> I am paying future Invoices today as a test of posts I made today.
16:05:31 <marco471> This may be the problem. I will change dates to see if it remains
16:06:03 <warlord> Yes, that would be the problem
16:06:11 <warlord> (well, *a* problem)
16:06:21 <warlord> check your invoice posting date.
16:06:29 <marco471> ok thanks
16:06:36 <warlord> If it's posted today and then you process payment today, then yes, that would be your confusion.
16:08:40 <marco471> Im trying this possibility
