07:30:25 <zotium> Hello GnuCashers! I just used this awesome app today, and I've filled up the Account Register page all the way down to the bottom, how do I add new rows at the bottom so that the blank rows start at the top instead of at the bottom?

14:01:39 <fretegi> good afternoon folks
14:02:33 <fretegi> so i have a simple question, what is the easiest way to take my gnucash files from one computer and use them on another? I cannot seem to find a place in the preferences tab to tell me where the data files are stored or how to tell it to open a different one, any thoughts
14:02:34 <fretegi> ?
14:14:01 <Simon> File -> Open
14:14:27 <fretegi> where is the file stored on the other machine to get to?
14:16:30 <fretegi> i went to ~/.gnucash/books but theres only a tiny file there on my linux machine. when i have used gnucash on windows the files were much bigger and if i recall correctly there were like 4 of them for each acct.

16:52:12 <ari> If I input in a vendor bill (BUSINESS > VENDOR > NEW BILL) but have a rebate on that bill (i.e. $30 back for an empty beer keg) is there a proper way to do it? Or should I modify the account directly (i.e. debit the cash account and credit the expense account)?
16:52:41 <ari> (It's not AP because alcohol is C.O.D., at least in Oregon)

18:27:23 <warlord> @tell zotium you can't. the blank line is always at the bottom, just like in your check register.
18:27:23 <gncbot> warlord: The operation succeeded.
18:27:26 *** aqua___ has quit IRC
18:29:16 <warlord> @tell ari you have a few options. One is to change the existing bill. One is to apply it to the next bill. Another option is to "Process Payment" and then change the destination account from Bank to e.g. Expenses:Keg
18:29:16 <gncbot> warlord: The operation succeeded.

19:28:33 <ari> Thanks warlord.
19:31:10 <ari> If I go the route of changing the existing bill how do I put a 'rebate' in there? Are you suggesting that I just reduce the price of one of the line items by the rebate amount?

20:30:23 <warlord> @tell ari or add a new line which is a 'negative'
