07:30:32 <warlord> ari, just enter a negative amount.
07:33:28 <warlord> you really do not want to be entering amounts directly into a/r or a/p. and if you do it wont affect your reports properly, so your bills-due reminder wont notice the manual transactions.
07:38:17 <warlord> @tell ari just enter a negative amount. It works just fine, so long as the total is positive. You really do not want to be entering amounts directly into a/r or a/p. and if you do it wont affect your reports properly, so your bills-due reminder wont notice the manual transactions.
07:38:17 <gncbot> warlord: The operation succeeded.

09:35:23 <david847> Hi I am trying to enter a stock sale at a profit into a security account but I cannot get gnucash to create the profit line with 0 shares and 0 price in the security account. It wants to put shares in this line as well as the sell line. In the tutorial and concepts guide it says to tab out of the transaction, but that is not working for me.
09:36:33 <david847> Do I need to enter the lines in a certain orderr?
09:37:54 <warlord> david847: no, but you need to enter touch exactly two of the qty/price/total columns
09:39:51 *** Topcat has quit IRC
09:40:03 <david847> I shall try that now.
09:52:20 <david847> This time it worked. Thank you.

16:10:47 *** fuzzybunny69y has joined #gnucash
16:38:38 *** akruz has joined #gnucash
16:38:46 <akruz> hello
16:39:02 <akruz> my equity account is not equal my net assets
16:40:15 *** fuzzybunny69y has quit IRC
16:41:06 <akruz> in fact, my equity acount is just the opening balances
16:42:11 <akruz> my assets, my expenses are not changing the equity acount
16:42:49 <akruz> and if i send anything plus to balance, my net assets keep unbalanced
16:45:11 <warlord> akruz: correct
16:45:44 <warlord> equity accounts show equity at a point in time. Use a report (like balance sheet) to compute instantaneous equity.
16:49:42 <akruz> ah ok
16:50:07 <akruz> hum... since you are here :)
16:50:24 <akruz> i can program something like this to gnucash:
16:50:40 <akruz> a report that put a limit based on my assets
16:50:56 <akruz> lets say that you expend money in cloths every month
16:51:41 <akruz> and you wnat to put a limit like that: no more than 10% of all your assets in expenses with cloths
16:52:06 <akruz> so the report will show how much you still have and if you pass that limit, how much you have passed
16:52:26 <akruz> lets say that your asset is 1000
16:52:42 <akruz> so you can expend 100 in cloths
16:52:59 <akruz> if you expend 80 it will say that you have 20
16:53:04 <warlord> sounds like the budget report
16:53:14 <akruz> and if you expand 120 you have -20
16:53:24 <akruz> what is this
16:53:58 <akruz> o wait, found it :)
16:53:59 <warlord> you set up a budget and then compare to your actual expenses
16:54:08 <akruz> oh coll
16:54:12 <warlord> i've never used the feature
16:54:16 <akruz> :)
16:54:24 <akruz> i will look at it
16:54:24 <akruz> ty
16:54:51 <warlord> yw
17:04:10 *** geroldr has quit IRC
17:13:07 *** geroldr has joined #gnucash
17:25:59 <akruz> i looking at it, but i have to create a sheet to make the rest
17:26:16 <akruz> because it's not saparate a % of your assets
17:35:45 <warlord> true, it is not completely a total % of your assets.

18:07:06 *** drax has joined #gnucash
18:13:32 *** akruz has quit IRC
18:14:34 <drax> maybe in a future i will make a function in the gnucash code
18:14:57 <drax> but first i need to know the language and learn (i think is phython)

19:39:08 *** kpreid has joined #gnucash
20:02:18 <warlord> drax: nope, gnucash is 80% C
20:02:38 <warlord> There are some python bindings.. And the reports are in Scheme.
20:04:08 <warlord> But basically you'll most likely need to be in C or Scheme to extend GnuCash effectively.

20:17:13 *** ari has joined #gnucash
20:19:16 *** ari has quit IRC
20:19:45 <drax> i know c
20:23:52 *** ari has joined #gnucash
20:24:49 <warlord> Well, that will get you 80% of GnuCash.
20:28:13 *** ari has quit IRC
20:35:02 <drax> o great :)
20:35:23 <drax> in fact i know c++ uU
20:53:30 *** ErKa has joined #gnucash
20:53:51 <warlord> It's C, not C++
20:53:58 <warlord> but C++ knowledge might help
21:45:13 <drax> yes
