01:22:30 <markvorhoff> Hello all! I am a new GnuCash user. I would like to have GnuCash display the difference between my Checking Account and my Credit Card account. Is it possible to make GnuCash do this automatically and show it in the summary bar, similar to how GnuCash displays Net Assets there? Or can I have a little custom report that will show me. I know that I can do this with a calculator or in my head with a little effort. I just wanted to kn
01:22:30 <markvorhoff> if there is a way I can automate it. Thanks for any feedback!
01:38:45 <fell> markvorhoff: run a cash flow report between the accounts?

01:43:08 <markvorhoff> fell: hmm I'll have to figure out how to do that. Thanks!

02:06:20 <markvorhoff> fell: If you have the time, do you think you could tell me how to do that?
02:10:25 <fell> Reports->Income&Expense->Cash-flow
02:11:33 <fell> Edit->Report options
02:12:38 <fell> Accounts tab: select your accounts
02:13:42 <fell> General tab: select date range
02:14:18 <fell> and adjust the other options as desired
02:24:53 <fell> BTW, did you see http://code.gnucash.org/docs/C/gnucash-guide/cc-together1.html#cc-puttoget-reports ?
02:38:59 <markvorhoff> Thanks for the directions! I had found the cashflow report before, but i was stumped by the Accounts Tab. It seems impossible to select just my Checking Account and my Credit Card, and exclude everything else.

02:40:39 <markvorhoff> I mean the Accounts Tab in the Cash Flow Options dialog box.
02:41:06 *** GabrieleV_ has joined #gnucash
02:41:12 <fell> Yes, it is a powerful tool.

02:41:55 <markvorhoff> I'm looking at the link you sent, too.
02:47:17 *** jralls has joined #gnucash
02:53:40 <markvorhoff> Thanks for your help. I must be missing the yellow brick road, somehow. My goal is to have a report that automatically subtracts the current credit card balance from the current checking balance. I haven't been able to discover how to make Cash Flow or Transaction Reports do that.
02:58:51 *** jralls has quit IRC
03:02:05 <fell> select them in the Account Summary report?

03:14:52 <markvorhoff> Hi Fell, thanks, I finally figured out how to use the Cash Flow Accounts Tab properly. The key (pun alert) was that I had forgotten how to select individual items from a list without selecting the intermediate accounts. Thanks for the help in getting me going in the right direction!

20:10:32 <Goodspeed> Hi there
20:10:47 <Goodspeed> Is it ok if I ask an accounting question, which I'm trying to do in Gnucash?
20:11:49 <Goodspeed> I hope it is... Where would I group reservations (let's say I'm saving up for something) is that assets or equities?
