Version history: ------- ------- 5.6 - 31 March 2024 The following bugs have been fixed: Bug 798946 - start/end of current/last quarter have off-by-one error Bug 799093 - Cannot reconcile since v5.4 Bug 799179 - SLR won't allow change from "Reminder" to any other state Bug 799210 - Bad encoding of accented chars in account names in "Import CSV" wizard Bug 799213 - SIGSEGV caused by revising an auto completed transaction Bug 799222 - Crash when changing the parent of an account that has had two or more levels of sub-accounts auto-created using the register in the current session. Bug 799224 - Import of QIF gets Bug detected during duplicates (partial fix: If the new-splits object is null, it means the new account tree from the current import has no splits. Therefore the (apply min|max dates) will fail. Omitting the date query is a simple fix to prevent crashing. This is a partial fix because the crash is likely a symptom of another bug which causes the new account-tree to be empty. Bug 799225 - QIF Importer Crashes Silently after "Start Import" Button: Don't allow a QIF investment transaction without an action (buy/sell/etc) Bug 799246 - import matcher will rename incorrect splits Other repairs or enhancements not marked as bugs: Numeric parsing and string handling improvements in the Engine and XML backend. [gnc-dense-cal.c] sx popup: show date in preference (cf.locale) format because the date format preference is user-facing and customisable. It's jarring if the preference is dd/mm/yyyy and the display shows mm/dd/yyyy in accordance to the locale. Correct misleading description about creating Scheduled Transaction. Date parsing efficiency improvements. Update minumum Python version to 3.8, made necessary by updating the C API in the Python bindings. Replace deprecated distutils.sysconfig with sysconfig. distutils is not present in Python 3.12.2. Query user via dialog for date when creating a reverse transaction. More C++ conversions Avoid deprecation warning for -py3 in swig >= 4.1 [gnc-commodities.cpp] gnc_new_iso_codes is a std::unordered_map Replace some naked for loops with C++ algorithms Convert gnc-commodity to C++ and make GncQuoteSources a C++ class. [test-commodities.cpp] add some tests for gnc_quote_sources Remove the SLR status sort as it is too confusing Allow sorting of the transaction column in the Since Last Run dialog by schedule name or occurrence date. To sort by schedule name, a schedule name is first selected and then the column header is pressed to change order. To sort by occurrence date, a date is selected and then the column header is pressed to change order based on the date of the first occurrence. A tool tip has been added to indicate the sort order being used. [gtest-gnc-numeric] add operator comparisons with example int64 numbers [assistant-stock-transaction] store & retrieve associated account as metadata Update Form/Schedule line references for 2023 for the US Income Tax Report Update another gnucash-help to gnucash-manual [invoice.scm] centralize layout components into layout-key-list instead of maintaining 2 assoc lists. [invoice.scm] normalize header section generators, changing the functions to require 1 options argument only Update invoice.scm: Add spacing for long Invoice ID's (Displayed as "Reference" on the Invoice) New and Updated Translations: Croatian, Dutch, English (Australia), English (New Zealand), English (United Kingdom), French, German, Hebrew, Hungarian, Indonesian, Japanese, Norwegian Bokmål, Polish, Portuguese, Slovak, Spanish, Swedish 5.5 - 17 December 2023 The following bugs have been fixed: Bug 607000 - SLR visible transactions Change the Since Last Run dialog to show only transactions with a non-empty Status. Bug 792241 - Allow sorting scheduled transactions Bug 798025 - SLR Value entry not tied to location Disable scrolling and the horizontal scroll bar while an entry has focus. Bug 798760 - SLR OK button to complete value entry With this change the Since Last Run dialog's OK button will commit an in-progress edit and advance to the next edit requiring input. It will close the dialog only if there are no more edits. Bug 798760 - SLR change reminder with value entry Change transaction state from Reminder to ToCreate when the user has provided the needed value and clicked OK. Bug 798890 - Printing Problem Bug 799087 - Import - Unbalanced (need acct) transactions now show in red (previously orange). Bug 799090 - Right Clicking scheduled transaction Ensure that the selection highlight changes to the item under the pointer when right-clicking in the SX Editor. Bug 799092 - GnuCash 5.4 leaves background process running on exit Clear the schema_hash at app shutdown via gnc_prefs_remove_registered and make that function available to the Python bindings so that python programs can do so too. Bug 799099 - Crash when trying to get quotes Bug 799104 - "Asset Chart" broken Bug 799108 - "Since Last Run" crashes if there are any errors creating a scheduled transaction: Capture errors and display them in a dialog box instead. Bug 799113 - "Start Import" button reports "Failed" Bug 799121 - Parse error on CSV import on MacOS Bug 799130 - split-register.c:1847:gnc_split_register_save: assertion failed: (xaccTransIsOpen (blank_trans)) Bug 799134 - Fails to build with GCC 14 (‘find_if’ is not a member of ‘std’; did you mean ‘find’) Bug 799138 - Port to new Python C config API Bug 799143 - FTBFS on 32bit architectures Bug 799144 - Date Completion is broken after 5.4 upgrade Bug 799148 - Reliable crash when saving a modified saved report configuration Bug 799150 - Can't paste text (with Ctrl+V) in Notes field in Account Tree View Bug 799151 - gnc_date_get_last_mday () does not account for leap years correctly. Bug 799152 - normalize_reldate_tm() does not handle dates with months greater than 11 or less than -11 correctly. Bug 799156 - normalize_struct_tm() does not normalize seconds,minutes, and hours correctly. Other repairs or enhancements not marked as bugs: Cancel the QIF import instead of inserting the default directory if the user cancels the file-selection dialog. Memory leak fixes Rename the scheduled transaction edit/new/delete menus to resolve a shortcut conflict. Allow saving the sort column in the Since Last Run dialog Ensure that Print Checks obtains for the check amount the sum of all splits in the current register account and subaccounts. Ensure that report page actions are re-enabled after editing options. Some actions (Print, PDFExport, and Report Options) had been left disabled. Ensure GncDateEntry always reverts to today if the user enters an invalid date string. Direct cmake to find the base installed Python3 instead of the latest version installed. Reference Cmake Issue 24126, Cmake Issue 24878, and CMake merge request 8287. Note that this requires CMake 3.20 or later; users of older versions will still get the newest installed Python version. CI: Run distcheck on one workflow to catch quickly instances where someone adds a file but forgets to update the distribution. Primarily of interest to developers: We've added a new CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE, Asan, with two options -DLEAKS and -DODR, both of which default to OFF. This creates a non-optimized, with-symbols build with the Address Sanitizer hooks compiled in. While the primary motivation is a CI run to ensure that there aren't any memory allocation errors revealed in the test suite, this is also a useful build to use when debugging a segfault crash, many of which are caused by use-after-free errors. When building on non-Apple platforms -DLEAKS=ON will add leak detection, dumping a stack trace for the allocation of any leaked heap or free-store allocations. Similarly and on non-Apple platforms only -DODR=ON will log violations of the C++ one definition rule. Also of interest to developers: A new cmake option -DCOVERAGE. When on and in a non-optimized build this will instrument the program and libraries to count usage for every source line. The option also adds three targets, lcov-initialize, lcov-collect, and lcov-generate-html. The primary motivation is to assess the completeness of tests in CI, see https://gnucash.github.io/Coverage-HTML for the latest results.

Bug 798925 - Python bindings: "invalid unclassed pointer in cast to 'QofInstance'". Bug 798944 - Program crashes when matching transactions Bug 798950 - Bug Report: Incorrect Currency Conversion and Provider Invoice Payment Recording * When balancing lots use the split amount, not the value * Recalculate the values using deduced exchange rates after adjusting split amounts. * Be conservative when recalculating values after breaking up a split to avoid imbalances caused by rounding. Bug 798958 - gncScrubLotLinks will infinite loop in some conditions Bug 798982 - GetQuotes crashes if Finance::Quote returns an empty date. Bug 798983 - Empty Orphan account appears after entering transactions in 5.3 Bug 798990 - Notes No Longer Autofills Bug 798991 - Incorrect Account Name Order in Transaction Report Bug 798995 - Keystrokes ignored during ledger entry Bug 798998 - Job Report Not Working Bug 799004 - Update of Prices attaches incorrect Date Bug 799010 - gnc-register-account-sel-limited-option errors doesn't work Bug 799020 - widget of gnc-register-list-option disregards user's clicks Bug 799021 - Saved report renders default of gnc-register-list-option Bug 799036 - Import prices from a CSV date problem Bug 799039 - gnc:strify produces unusual results or crashes GnuCash when fed an option from gnc-lookup-option Bug 799048 - Hover on tab not correct Bug 799051 - Shortcut Ctrl + Tab not working in 5.3 Bug 799054 - Stock Assist not functioning Bug 799060 - Consistent Crash in Invoices Bug 799068 - csv export active register not working Bug 799069 - Multicurrency Invoice Payment Bug 799075 - Saving display tab changes in Report Options does not work. Bug 799084 - Unable to create new scheduled transaction Other repairs or enhancements not marked as bugs: [import-main-matcher.cpp] After clicking/toggling A/U+C/C checkbox, reselect the row because it'll be much faster to use keyboard navigation -- use up/down/left/right to target desired checkbox, hit repeatedly to repeat the same action over several consecutive rows. Implement support for !Type:Prices records in the QIF importer. Modernize construction of GObjects using G_DECLARE_DERIVABLE, G_DECLARE_FINAL, etc. Fix yet more leaks. [DBI backend] Change DBI test URLs to environment variables from cmake configuration definitions. Restore the Stock Transaction Assistant to full operation. Fix the Fancy Date file property so that it saves. Fix formatting error in po files project-id line. [simple-business-create.py] Overwrite an existing file instead of crashing. Update github action package versions. Add parsing mixed number and fraction (e.g. 10 1/2) to the gnc_numeric string constructor. Bump minimum cmake version to 3.14 and drop some conditionals for older versions Major speedup in the SQLBackend by replacing C++ exceptions with std::optional for null values. Refresh the GUI on completion of the import matcher so that the imports are immediately reflected in the register. Improve online quote retrieval error reporting. Test loading and saving XML files with and without compression [import-main-matcher] always defer_bal_computation during import to speed up both importing new transactions, and destroying existing ones. GncGtkListUIItem::set_option_from_ui_item: Iterate over selected items Instead of all possible items. Convert gnc-ofx-import.c, import-parse.c, import-utilities.c, import-format-dialog.c, import-account-matcher.c, import-commodity-matcher.c, import-settings.c, import-pending-matches.c, import-match-picker.c, import-main-matcher.c, and gnc-pricedb.c to .cpp By default, filter out online_wiggle in test-gnc-quotes. Running ./bin/test-gnc-quotes from the command line will still include online_wiggle Replace yahoo_json with alphavantage in test-gnc-quotes. yahoo_json is too unstable. Include timezone in price-quote date diagnostic messages.

Missing from the 5.2 release notes is that Chris streamlined the transaction scrubbing so that each transaction gets scrubbed only once. This improves--in some cases substantially--the time to load and to run Check and Repair. New and Updated Translations: Hungarian, Dutch, Portuguese, French, Italian 5.2 - 25 June 2023 Between 5.1 and 5.2, the following bugfixes were accomplished: Bug 777472 - reconcile does not work if transaction selected Check that there's no outstanding activity in the current register page before starting a reconciliation. It is still possible to start modifying a transaction after the reconciliation window is open but this will stop the most common issue with the process. Starting a reconciliation from the account tree is left unprotected. Bug 798564 - GnuCash is slow when there are a lot of open tabs/registers Lazily load registers as is already done with reports. Bug 798597 - The word "Separators" needs two separate versions Use "Character-separated" when it's a choice between that and fixed field width and "Select Separator Character" when it's a heading. Bug 798695 - Deleting everything from the "Transfer" cell after suggestions pop-up restricts search to the first 30 accounts Skip the search on an empty value and return all accounts in the combo box as it normally does if the account list is opened without searching for something. Bug 798796 - Account list incomplete in report options Allow stock/fund accounts that are descendants of Bank accounts to be selected for the Advanced Portfolio, Investment Lots and Investment Portfolio reports. Bug 798809 - Multicolumn report error when reopened after saving. Bug 798839 - Edit -> Preferences string not translatable (reopened) Bug 798862 - Merge identical strings (reopened) Ensure similar strings are identical and use double line view instead of double line mode. Bug 798879 - RFE: [Transaction Report] add Running Total option Bug 798885 - Accented character in folder name on Account Export (reopened) Bug 798899 - Gnucash crashes during CSV import when using a template if the destination account is changed from one used in the template Bug 798901 - Wrong value for very small prices from Finance::Quote. Bug 798916 - Exchange rates fetched from openexchange off by factor of 10 Bug 798919 - Inconsistent signs in creating budget Bug 798923 - OFX import is no longer matching security nor asking for stock account. Bug 798930 - invoices won't sequence to the next number Bug 798948 - XML file corrupted by saving twice in extremely short period Bug 798952 - Unable to set day threshold or counters in properties. Bug 798960 - Transaction completion horizontal scrolling opens without the new text being visible and remembers previous position/width Bug 798966 - Uninitialised variable used in dialog-account-picker.c:dialog_response_cb() The following fixes and improvements were not associated with bug reports: The type-ahead selection of transaction descriptions has been substantially overhauled based on extensive user feedback. Matches are now only on the beginning of words and are now sorted by age since last use. This both substantially reduces the number of matches and prioritizes the most recently used as being the most likely candidates for re-use. To help distinguish cases of long descriptions where the match would be outside the popup's viewport the viewport is automatically scrolled horizontally so that the end of the left-most (right-most in rtl languages) matches is centered in the view. Completion can be aborted with the key or a new Don't autocomplete selection that's the first entry in the popup. Fix lockup on Windows in type-ahead selection of transaction descriptions. More budget-module sign fixes and improvements. Lots of memory-leak fixes, GLib modernization, and code cleanup by Richard Cohen, Simon Arlott, & Chris Lam. Bugfix xaccTransGetTxnType: avoid returning TXN_TYPE_LINK incorrectly: A TXN_TYPE_PAYMENT will have non-APAR splits; a TXN_TYPE_LINK will not have non-APAR splits. This bug manifests as a regular TXN_TYPE_PAYMENT transaction being later voided being incorrectly changed to TXN_TYPE_LINK. Including brokerage fees in Money Out calculation (if not ignoring them) in advanced-portfolio.scm report and updating the "advanced" tests to reflect selling fees being included into the money out value. [stock-txn-asst] Don't use the initial value in amount edit widgets unless they're valid. Otherwise the invalid value will log an error that will prevent later valid input from working. Bugfix: Actions > Online Actions > Show log Window does not open when it is first clicked. cmake: check gdk only when building GUI Get the tooltip working on "Online Banking Setup" New and Updated Translations: Chinese (Simplified), Chinese (Traditional), Croatian, English (Australia), English (New Zealand), English (United Kingdom), Estonian, French, German, Hungarian, Lithuanian, Marathi, Norwegian Bokmål, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Spanish, Swedish, Ukrainian 5.1 - 30 April 2023 Between 5.0 and 5.1, the following bugfixes were accomplished: Bug 765920 - Running balance not accurate when sorted different ways Renamed option to "Account Balance" to avoid confusion with running total. Added helper function to ensure running balance and balance forward are only shown when transaction are grouped by account and sorted as in register. In that case column heading remains "Running Balance" and balance forward is shown. Otherwise column heading is renamed "Account Balance" and balance forward is not shown. Also added missing code for Common Currency conversion. Bug 797879 - [Transaction Report] running balance column not consistent with amount column for SAME transaction date Bug 798461 - balance sheet shows positions with zero balances despite report options Bug 798775 - Why is General Journal called "Register" in the tabs? Bug 798802 - Online Price quote - Stocks not working GNU 5.0 Windows Bis Bug 798802 - Online Price quote - Stocks not working GNU 5.0 Windows Bug 798807 - Keyboard shortcuts not working Bug 798808 - Saved reports shown on main menu Bug 798810 - Income Statement (multicolumn) - account sorting is 'reversed' each time you restart. Bug 798812 - crashes after I open a customer report and select… Bug 798813 - Under File->Import, Missing OFX/QFX menu item Bug 798815 - flatpak run --command=gnucash-cli cannot download quotes since 5.0. Bug 798821 - Crash when running report in window Bug 798834 - CSS-based Stylesheet Help Button not working Bug 798839 - Edit -> Preferences string not translatable Bug 798844 - "Assign as Payment" does nothing in 4.14 & 5.0 Bug 798845 - User Config and User Data link broken Bug 798851 - Account Balance 'include subaccounts' not saved Bug 798854 - Softkey 'Save Config' remains dark Bug 798862 - Merge identical strings Bug 798863 - Crash on clicking Settings button second time Bug 798864 - Budget Reporting on select reports are wrong Bug 798869 - Transaction Import MAP Bug 798872 - Reload inoperative for reports Bug 798877 - Program crashes upon selection of CSV profile Bug 798885 - Accented character in folder name on Account Export Bug 798886 - [Transaction Report] Subtotal upper headings do not follow font style of lower headings Bug 798893 - several menu tip messages in reports are marked translatable but unused. Bug 798894 - TOTD with ellipsis broken. The following fixes and improvements were not associated with bug reports: Add filters to the File>Open dialog in File mode to show only files with GnuCash extensions, only those matching GnuCash's backup file pattern, or any extension. Select the first result in the Customer/Vendor search dialog. This allows faster keyboard navigation -- Find Customer, input search string, press ENTER, use up/down to select desired object, press ENTER to open object. Improve foreign currency handling in budget report Improve handling of the blank transaction when the register is sorted in reverse: * Change the preference option 'Future transactions after blank transaction' * Change tooltip for 'Blank Transaction' in register to mention moving to the blank transaction. * Show the blank transaction at top of register Prevent infinite recursion from gnucash_item_edit_focus_out when using an input method. Create obsolete features list with first member book_currency. Obsolete features set in the book will be removed from the book's KVP and ignored. Restore existence, but not implementation, of GNC_FEATURE_BOOK_CURRENCY. At least one user has managed to get it set on their book so even though it was supposed to be unimplemented it got through somehow. Restoring it allows books with it set to load. Offer to force edit non-identical fields when multiple matches are selected in the import matcher window. Previously, only identical Desc/Notes/Memo were unlocked for editing. Guard against there being no namespaces in the new security dialog Fix Finance::Quote use on Win32 by dealing with Win32 \r\n newlines on return from finance-quote-wrapper. Fix some menu labels that were not marked for translation Fix category in CSV export with simple layout. If Trading accounts is enabled, and the transaction is a transfer between two accounts of differing commodities, the CSV simple-layout export would incorrectly show "--Split Transaction--" as the category. When configuring Guile use pkg-config before searching for binaries.

The following fixes and improvements were not associated with bug reports: Fix crash in gnc_owner_get_owner [gnc-account-sel] fix entered_text leak Fix missing statusbar tooltips for popup menus Popup menu missing from sx template transactions window New and Updated Translations: Chinese (Simplified), Croatian, Hungarian, Japanese, Portuguese, Portuguese (Brazil), Spanish, Swedish 4.14 - 26 March 2023 Between 4.13 and 4.14, the following bugfixes were accomplished: Bug 797477 - Manual foreign transaction from APAR to another doesn't trigger price input Bug 797725 - Untranslatable string "For Period Covering ~a to ~a" Bug 797903 - Transaction window: The 'blue line' is always (erroneously) topmost when t. sorting order is inverted. Bug 798570 - Totals for the income, expenses and remaining to budget incorrect for one specific date. Bug 798625 - "Last up through report date" changed in 4.12 Don't adjust report dates with time64CanonicalDayTime. They're set to 23:59:59 local which is always >= neutral time at which prices and transactions are timestamped. Local noon is before neutral time for all time zones east of UTC+2. Bug 798679 - Unicode normalization should be used for comparison but not stored. Change to NFC normalization for all comparisons because the Unicode meaning of compatible might collide with the user's intent. Bug 798702 - Crash in gnc_plugin_page_focus_idle_destroy() closing a report before it completes. Bug 798705 - ] New: UI string mismatch: OK vs. Next Bug 798712 - Regional Decimal Point not recognized in budgets Bug 798717 - Reports > Business > Fancy Invoice duplicates company details Bug 798732 - : Type of balance carry forward accounts for german skr49 account template fixed Bug 798734 - Aging Reports don't handle mixed currency payments and invoices without Trading Accounts Bug 798737 - Minor grammatical error - 'for' missing in 'You will be asked a conversion rate for each.'

Allow C decls after statements, legal since C99. [kvp] Use static strings and boxed in gvalue_from_kvp_value. Saves allocating and copying complex values, avoiding potential memory leaks. L10N:DE:Updating accounts from 0001 to 8000 DATEV-SKR04 2022-01-01. Payment dialog - always list all possible post accounts. Before only the post account in the currency of the selected vendor or customer was available. Revisit invoice payment in multi-currency context: * Show proper amount in dialog when applying or editing an existing transaction as payment user chose a new transfer account and the old currency is neither the new transfer account's currency nor the post account's currency) Edit/assign payment - be more prudent not to lose data We can't handle the case where a transaction has splits in more than one APAR account. Instead of only warning that some of them will be lost refuse to continue and leave it to the user to fix the transaction first. Multi-currency - show split amount rather than transaction value Activate feature GNC_FEATURE_EQUITY_TYPE_OPENING_BALANCE [balsheet-pnl] move out of experimental into regular menu.

The following fixes are in 4.904 only and will not appear in GnuCash 4.14: Bug 798558 - Irregular line spacing in Account Tree View Bug 798773 - Help file launches in browser when using command-H to hide GnuCash This is a MacOS-only problem. Note that for the fix to have effect you must remove the file accelerator-map from GNC_CONFIG_HOME when GnuCash isn't running. Bug 798778 - GnuCash quits abruptly when attempting to edit options for certain reports. Bug 798781 - Printing multiple checks prints duplicate checks Bug 798787 - gnc-register-owner-option currently broken The following fixes and improvements were not associated with bug reports: Fix quotes codecvt to wchar_t error on Windows. Budget totals for one period would be wrong when increasing the number of periods. Change the handling of accelerator maps. Gtk no longer supports changing these from the menus and the save no longer writes out the accelerators that have their default values, so to assist users editing them we have generated default ones that we include with GnuCash and have disabled saving when quitting GnuCash. At startup GnuCash will check for the presence of the file accelerator-map in GNC_CONFIG_HOME and if it's not found will copy in the default one. Properly parse plus signs while importing numbers in a CSV file. Fix CSV price import file loading CsvImport - actually do as the warning indicates: If an invalid column is found in a preset, replace it with a NONE column, rather than not inserting a column at all. New and Updated Translations: Chinese (Simplified), Croatian, Hungarian, Japanese, Portuguese, Portuguese (Brazil), Spanish, Swedish 4.903 - 12 March 2023 Between 4.902 and 4.903, the following bugfixes were accomplished: The following fix will also appear in GnuCash 4.14: Bug 798765 - Increase the limit for Maximum Slices in the Expense Piechart The following fixes and improvements were not associated with bug reports: Add JSON::Parse to gnc-fq-update. Guard against some possible null pointer dereferences Change the reconcile window toolbar icon for 'Other the Account' to 'gnc-jumpto' Change toolbar 'Blank' icon for invoice page to match register Change the short cut from CTRL+Page_Down to CTRL+b and change the toolbar icon to 'go-jump'. Remove -Wno-pointer-sign, adding the necessary casts in gnc-gwen-guic.c Remove -Wno-error=parentheses, added for gcc 8.0 and gtk 3.14 Remove redundant uses of cmake -E env [c++options] Save an empty SCM string for nil or empty option values. Avoids crash at reload due to unknown variable. [c++options]Really fix the gnc_option_db_lookup_string_value leak New and Updated Translations: Chinese (Simplified), Croatian, English (Australia), English (New Zealand), English (United Kingdom), Hungarian, Macedonian, Polish, Portuguese, Russian, Ukrainian 4.902 - 5 March 2023 Between 4.901 and 4.902, the following bugfixes were accomplished: The following fixes will also appear in GnuCash 4.14: Bug 798748 - Transaction Notes field's value does not appear in reverse transaction. Bug 798754 - Build fails with gcc 13 and glib > 2.76 Bug 798759 - Register widths for 'with sub-account' not saved Bug 798600 - CSV import of multi-split security transactions fails to load capital gain. Transactions with capital gains processing can have splits in transaction currency with a zero amount and a non-zero value. To properly import those, prefer the value column even if transaction currency equals account commodity. Previous (wrong) assumption was that in case of a same-currency split, the amount would always be the value. Update csv transaction export format to include split values. In the csv importer the 'GnuCash Export Format' option will now include values. For compatibility with filex exported from older gnucash versions the previous preset is still available under the name 'GnuCash Export Format (4.x and older)'. The following additional bug fixes are in unstable only: Bug 782141 - Import CSV - Multi-currency support can cause rounding errors Replace the column types 'Deposit' and 'Withdrawal' with 'Amount' and 'Amount (Negated)' that are conceptually applicable more widely. Also introduce column types 'Value' and 'Value (Negated)' to allow construction of splits in commodities different from the transaction currency. While Value is the number in the transaction currency, always use 'Amount' in single-currency transactions. Bug 793306 - Price is not imported from CSV Bug 796955 - Import CSV - Single-line two-currency transactions can't be imported Bug 797033 - The CSV Importer should not obey with the "automatic digital point" setting Bug 797383 - Import transaction via CSV selects the commodity as a currency, results in an invalid transaction that is uneditable, and a corrupted price database. Change the transaction currency to the from or base account's parent account currency if the from or base account is not denominated in a currency. This allows to import stock transactions directly into the stock account. Bug 797903 - Transaction window: The 'blue line' is always (erroneously) topmost when t. sorting order is inverted. Bug 798334 - Importing transactions from CSV with space as thousand separator Bug 798572 - Parse numbers with two minus signs as a positive numbers Bug 798691 - Memo field not updated on CSV import using U+C Bug 798732 - : Type of balance carry forward accounts for german skr49 account template fixed. The accounts listed are of the EQUITY type and not ASSET. Bug 798749 - Fails to read gsettings on startup Bug 798753 - UX improvements in new import dialog Bug 798763 - "Manage Document Link" keyboard shortcut is missing The following fixes and improvements were not associated with bug reports: Always use the Company Name from book options in reports, removing the Company Name report option. Fix the register sheet being insensitive when in reverse order Allow C decls after statements. Legal since C99. Make the scheme tests fail immediately if they load an external gnucash file. [c++options] Restore the ability to set plot sizes in pixels. [c++ options] Restore forward & backward compatibility, fix crash. CsvTokenizer - add additional test case for escaped quotes It simulates the case where csv fields are fully quoted and an escaped quote ("") is found in some field. This case is handled correctly, adding the test to guard this in potential future modifications. [dialog-employee] toggle sensitivity instead of visibility of GncAccountSel [eguile-utilities.scm] remove fmtnumber. deprecated in maint. Sort the gnc tree view column menu Delete action on account page not disabled on edits. L10N:DE:Updating accounts from 0001 to 8000 DATEV-SKR04 2022-01-01 GSettings migration: Ensure that the current version is set on a new GnuCash installation and that migrations applicable to versions of GnuCash later than the current one do not run. Turn on -Wunused Rename Hellow World report to Sample Report. Generic Importer - allow user to modify exchange rates for unbalanced transactions. Make logging accessible from python modules Allow C declarations after statements Good for declaring variables at point of use New and Updated Translations: Czech, Hungarian 4.901 - 5 February 2023 Between 4.900 and 4.901, the following bugfixes were accomplished: The following fixes will also appear in GnuCash 4.14: Bug 797477 - Manual foreign transaction from APAR to another doesn't trigger price input Bug 797725 - Untranslatable string "For Period Covering ~a to ~a" Bug 798734 - Aging Reports don't handle mixed currency payments and invoices without Trading Accounts Bug 798737 - Minor grammatical error - 'for' missing in 'You will be asked a conversion rate for each.' Bug 798740 - Build fails with gcc 13 Bug 798747 - Crash in Investment Portfolio report. The following additional bug fixes are in unstable only: Bug 753307 - Custom Report be selectable as default Report for Printing Change the preference in Business->'Report for Printing' to be saved as a book property and allow the selection of any Invoice Report to be used as the default. Bug 794028 - CSV import, default to matching full account name If the account map doesn't yield a result, try to map the import string against existing accounts' full names Bug 796955 - Import CSV - Single-line two-currency transactions can't be imported Use a provided price if the transfer account uses a different commodity from the base account's; apply it as transfer amount = base amount * price. Add a transfer amount column option to avoid the rounding that might arise from having an inexact price. Bug 797756 - Currency format setting is ignored Bug 798292 - csv Import Transactions Ignores Multi-Splits Bug 798475 - GNCAccountSel could have shortcuts Bug 798730 - Open report doesn't remember selected accounts over restart Bug 798739 - Advanced Portfolio report fails The following fixes and improvements were not associated with bug reports: Move the Balance Sheet P&L Report out of experimental into regular menu. Rename the Deposit and Withdrawal column labels in the CSV import assistant to Amount and Amount(Negated) for clarity when importing into something other than a bank account. Improve muti-currency invoice payment: * Show proper amount in dialog when applying or editing an existing transaction as payment. * Be more careful not to waste the existing payment split * If the user changed the payment amount while starting from an existing transaction unreconcile the changed payment split * Avoid needlessly changing transaction currency (only do so if the user chose a new transfer account and the old currency is neither the new transfer account's currency nor the post account's currency) Payment dialog - always list all possible post accounts instead of only those in the currency of the selected vendor or customer * Refuse to continue when a transaction has splits in more than one AP/AR account to avoid losing data. Add widget names to import dialogs so they can be manipulated with css Fix some memory leaks Ensure original splits are freed in xaccTransRollbackEdit Add ability to show placeholder and hidden accounts in the GNCAccountSel widget to hide placeholder and hidden accounts. By default these accounts are hidden, but with the use of a secondary icon a popup menu is presented where the list can be configured to show them. Also when the GNCAccountSel is set to a specific account with with gnc_account_sel_set_account, the placeholder and hidden properties are checked and appropriate changes made so the account will be visible. Activate feature GNC_FEATURE_EQUITY_TYPE_OPENING_BALANCE Wrap function decls in extern "C" in all headers so that they can be included without wrapping the include statements. New and Updated Translations: French, Hebrew, Hungarian, Italian, Russian, Ukrainian 4.900 - 8 January 2023 New Features A new Stock Transaction Assistant to guide you through entering most investment transactions for stocks, bonds, and mutual funds. You can access it from Actions>Stock Assistant when you have the Accounts page ora Stock or Fund account register open. A new Investment Lots report showing a graph of capital gains and losses in a period by investment lot. Note that if you don't use the View Lots dialog to manage capital gains and losses this report won't have anything to show you. Use Reports>Assets & Liabilities>Investment Lots to see the report. A new tab on the New/Edit Account dialog called More Properties includes entries to set a high and low limit on an account. That's coupled to a new column that's available on the Accounts Page, Balance Limit. If you set a high or low limit and the account balance falls above or below the respective limit an indicator will be shown in the Balance Limit column. The description field quickfill in the register now displays a drop-down list of possible completions instead of just one inline completion. File import menu items for the MT940, MT942, and DTAUS formats is replaced with a single Import from AQBanking that supports importing any file format supported by AQBanking, including the frequently requested CAMT. Between 4.13 and 4.900, the following bugfixes were accomplished: The following fixes will also appear in GnuCash 4.14: Bug 798588 - sx scrubbing was using incorrect free function Bug 798625 - "Last up through report date" changed in 4.12 Bug 798679 - Unicode normalization should be used for comparison but not stored. Bug 798702 - Crash in gnc_plugin_page_focus_idle_destroy() closing a report before it completes. Bug 798705 - New: UI string mismatch: OK vs. Next Bug 798717 - Reports > Business > Fancy Invoice duplicates company details The following additional bug fixes are in unstable only: Bug 403979 - Balance column shows only low order digits when too narrow If the column is too narrow to display the whole number it will display the leading digits with an ellipsis (…). Bug 769256 - Change New Account Dialog Rearrange the New and Edit Account dialog to move the parent selector under the description field followed by the account type as a combo (i.e. drop down) list. The following fixes and improvements were not associated with bug reports: Unicode normalization for string matches is changed from NFKC to NFC. This means that font and positional variants will no longer match and is unlikely to affect most users. See Unicode Normalization Forms:Canonical and Compatibility Equivalence for the technical details. The Gtk menu structure has been rewritten to use the newer GMenu/GMenuModel system. This change is mostly invisible to users, except that to keep menu accelerators (like Q to quit) working on macOS we had to let macOS handle the events. That will affect using cut, copy, and paste in dialog boxes because the menu will intercept them. That's temporary, we hope to have it fixed for GnuCash 4.901. The Finance::Quote interface is rewritten in C++. This new design will allow much better capture of diagnostics from Finance::Quote making troubleshooting problems much easier. The perl Finance::Quote utilities gnc-fq-check, gnc-fq-dump, and gnc-fq-helper are removed and new commands added to gnucash-cli: --quotes info replaces gnc-fq-check and --quotes dump replaces gnc-fq-dump. New API: The options system has been rewritten in C++ with Scheme wrappers for report options. While this is invisible to most users, those who have written custom reports should look for deprecation warnings when the custom reports are reconciled. The main difference is that option creation and registration is now done in a single function call. Note that gnc:new-options is now gnc-new-options. There are several similar changes. All of these are wrapped in bindings/guile/options.scm with the old names, but are marked to raise deprecation warnings to encourage you to change. The wrappers will be removed in GnuCash 6.0. Deprecations: See the deprecation warnings in options.scm as noted above. New and Updated Translations: Chinese (Simplified), Croatian, Hungarian, Polish, Portuguese (Brazil) 4.13 - 18 December 2022 Between 4.12 and 4.13, the following bugfixes were accomplished: Bug 760274 - The Statusbar "forgets" when register doesn't have focus Bug 798545 - Crash when updating document link on vendor bill Bug 798614 - Croatia to join the Euro Bug 798629 - gnucash crashes attempting to import OFX file Bug 798633 - 4.12 build failure on 32-bit Linux: "No code for module" Bug 798640 - Segfault when running saved report Bug 798649 - Crash when closing Edit Style Sheets dialog while Style Sheet Properties dialog is still open. Bug 798653 - Schedule Calendar event description pop up window does not track mouse position Bug 798657 - Import Summary language is wrong Bug 798664 - Result of 'gnucash --nofile' is marked dirty Bug 798669 - Multicolumn Balance Sheet not printing exchange rates include equity accounts in the exchange rate commodities list. Bug 798672 - Preferences are not saved nor loaded, ERROR g_settings_new_full: assertion 'schema != NULL' failed Bug 798680 - Not able to match a reverse transaction of a previously matched transaction. Bug 798681 - Previously imported investment income transactions may not be filtered. Bug 798694 - Cursor in the wrong place after pasting with auto-completion The following fixes and improvements were not associated with bug reports: Don't normalize text when pasting from the clipboard or appending descriptions or notes during imports. [register] Delay post-ime reset of the selection to works around bug 798587. [ofx import] Clean up importing investment transactions for smoother workflow and better UI behavior.

Bug 798385 - Description to often only "Landesbank Hessen-Thuringen Girozentrale" Prepend the Ulitimate Creditor or Ultimate Debtor to the transaction description. Bug 798565 - Import map editor: deletion of a map does not mark gnucash document as dirty Bug 798573 - Tab Width Behaviour Formerly when the notebook tabs on the left or right, the space used fluctuated depending on tab label width. This change sets the label width to the preference setting when the tabs are on the left or right but when top or bottom the width is set to the number of characters when shorter than the preference setting so they take up less room. Bug 798578 - MT940 imports broken - all transactions have date of first transaction Bug 798585 - segfault running sample script simple_business_create.py. Bug 798588 - sx scrubbing was using incorrect free function Bug 798590 - Transaction report: wrong type argument in position 1 Bug 798598 - Selecting a line in a Vendor Credit Note changes display of Subtotal cell to 0.00 Bug 798611 - Date changing when changing timezone by one hour When getting a date from the date editor anywhere in the program set the time to neutral time instead of the beginning of the day unless get_date_internal is called with GNC_DATE_EDIT_SHOW_TIME in which case the user-provided time is used. Bug 798616 - Can't register amount greater than 9,000,000,000 Because when loading the value the split in the xml backend doesn't yet have a parent so the code tried to convert to GNC_COMMODITY_MAX_FRACTION and if the numerator was larger than 10^10 that would overflow. To fix it this changes the "don't know" response in get_currency_denom and get_commodity_denom to GNC_DENOM_AUTO which will normally leave the denominator alone. The following fixes and improvements were not associated with bug reports: It is now possible to edit the description, notes, and memo fields of new transactions in the import matcher and to do so for multiple transactions. The option is accessed via a context menu on selected import lines. Show GnuCash's installation and configuration configuration paths in the About dialog. List the same from the command line with a --paths option. Add account hierarchy templates for locale es_AR Continued work on the Stock Transaction Assistant. If you want to try out this new way of recording your investment transactions start GnuCash with the --extra option. The stock assistant is available on the toolbar and from the Actions menu when a register for a STOCK or FUND account is focused. Replace the very obsolete ghelp: URI scheme with help and install the documentation according to the XDG documentation spec on non-Mac Linux systems. This ensures that the Help menu documentation items work with Gnome 42 and later. Conforming to the XDG documentation spec, rename the root page of the Help manual to index from help. This has the happy side effect of removing some special-case code from the macOS documentation links. Standardize the top-level Equity and Assets account names in the French templates to "Capitaux propres" and "Actif" respectively. [gnc-ab-utils] concise string accumulator [gnc-glib-utils] gnc_g_list_stringjoin skips NULL data [ifrs-cost-basis] identify sale/purchase according to truth table instead of via flawed heuristics [ifrs-cost-basis] add options used as a report footer [lot-viewer] Show Open & Close dates only when they have a value.

[date-utilities] avoid report crash if start > end date [html-chart] add percent formatter for numbers for older javascript. [trial-balance] set default price-source to average-cost to minimise complaints (see Bug 798550) Use macos-latest github runner for mac tests. [dialog-price] Price Database: Insert help buttons Disable transaction type (i.e. Bill or Invoice) in Invoice/Bill Registers, determining the type by inspecting the money flow. Fix python tests dependencies so that ninja check works from a clean build directory with Python enabled. Review of account templates C—missing placeholders, redundancies Fixed a variety of fixed memory leaks, poor list handling, and dangling reference errors.

The following fixes and improvements were not associated with bug reports: Partially fix Bug 771095 by inserting a help button in the Since-Last-Run dialog. Lock down GITHUB_TOKEN permissions on workflows. [g_option_context_get_help() returns a char* which must be freed. [assistant-stock-transaction] dividends must include stock account. Fix arch linux CI build failures. Add a help button to the financial calculator dialog. [assistant-stock-transaction] avoid resetting txn_types unnecessarily. [assistant-stock-transaction] reorder of Pages - date before type. [import matcher] Only append description if there's something to append to. Otherwise just set the new string. [balsheet-pnl] test "lvl <= depth-limit" outside add-indented-row this will be the first step trying to fix bug 798502. the bug likely resides in the (if) conditional in (add-account-row). [gnc-main-window] page->window is not main_window, skip warning. This function gets called for both regular register *and* the embedded register in the SX template editor. The latter is not a main_window, and launching the SX editor would lead to warnings. [gnc-plugin-page-register] if account==NULL, skip AccountIsPriced because gnc_plugin_page_register_ui_initial_state may be called for non-account registers (eg the sx editor) and account may be null. [gnc-account-sel.c] prepend & reverse while building acct list and don't use confusing double pointer Fix use-after-free in unable to save database dialog. [account.cpp] restore breadth-first search for 2 functions gnc_account_lookup_by_name and gnc_account_lookup_by_code were searching breadth-first and accidentally changed to depth-first in 4.7. [reports] use new function names [account.cpp] gnc_accounts_and_all_descendants converted from scm [CI]Work around new git security measure. [balsheet-pnl] faster definition of balance lists [gnc-numeric.cpp] Reduce logging level of gnc_numeric exception message because exceptions are expected in some use cases. Redo icon handling in cmake Using globs for file copying prevents cmake from discovering newly added icons. Writing rules that explicitly use lists of icons will fix this as a new icon in the sources will have to be added to the list and will force reparsing by cmake. We have to maintain the lists anyway for our dist target so there's actually no extra work involved for the devs. [assistant-stock-transaction] better Dr/Cr imbalance error message New API: gnc:accounts-and-all-descendants-sorted gnc-accounts-and-all-descendantsNone Deprecations: gnc:account-path-less-p gnc:accounts-and-all-descendants New and Updated Translations: Arabic, Chinese (Simplified), Croatian, English (Australia), English (New Zealand), English (United Kingdom), French, German, Hebrew, Hindi, Hungarian, Italian, Korean, Nepali, Norwegian Bokmål, Polish, Portuguese (Brazil), Russian, Spanish, Swedish, Ukrainian 4.10 - 27 March 2022 The eleventh release of the 4.x Stable Series Between 4.9 and 4.10, the following bugfixes were accomplished: Bug 684507 - commodity namespace should be localized Bug 741674 - Newly created Scheduled Transactions appear in existing search windows Bug 797501 - Currency symbols in Hebrew (RTL) language Bug 797772 - Allow reconciliation report to double filter by both posting and reconciliation date Bug 798164 - Import transaction window does not allow changing the transaction description. Bug 798272 - up/down arrow keys do not work in account selection pop-up Bug 798375 - Transfer Account Selection not editable after typing error Bug 798386 - Cannot increment date by 1 day with Japanese keyboard.Allow ';' to increment the date because on those keyboards + is shift-;. Bug 798391 -OFX import routine keeps prompting for accepted (and reconciled) transactions when imported again Bug 797610 - Scrolling is too fast to follow Bug 798392 - Reports do not display when Reports JavaScript dependencies are located at a filepath that includes special characters like hash ("#") Bug 798395 - ofxdirectconnect downloads crash gnucash 4.9 Bug 798408 - The calculation in budgets UI and reports are wrong. Bug 798411 - Untranslated/Unused string [pt only] Bug 798415 - Due Bills Reminder Dialog - Right align 'amount'This was a right-to-left language (e.g. Hebrew) problem. Bug 798435 - Crash on print after printing checks Bug 798438 - on reconcile window, click on the last column 'R' does not order the entries according with the status Bug 798448 - Column 'num' cannot be null Bug 798458 - Build failure with gcc 12 Bug 798474 - Windows 10: Mouse scroll wheel on register only scrolls 1 pixel at a time (instead of 1 line at a time) The following fixes and improvements were not associated with bug reports: Added a BETA Stock Transaction Assistant to help create a variety of securities transactions. To try it out start GnuCash with the --extra option, open a stock-type register, and select Actions>Stock Assistant. Please note any issues on Bug 798004. Remove the hard-coded default namespaces"AMEX", "NASDAQ", "NYSE", "EUREX", and "FUND" from the New Security dialog. These namespaces were added to the list of existing namespaces; it was necessary to create a commodity that used one of them to make that one an actual namespace, so users who have commodities in e.g. the namespace NYSE will still see that namespace in the selection list. Reasoning: The list was necessarily incomplete and confused new users. Fixed the Income Statement report table formating so that all sections get laid out to the same width. [Python Bindings]Implement some comparison and arithmetic operators for GncNumeric Budgets are sensitive to readonly status Disable some budget features if book is readonly Fix suppression of "cut split/transaction" warnings for the current session These were not working because they were missing from the temporary warnings settings schema. The warnings could only be dismissed permanently. Add them to the temporary warnings section of the settings schema. Currencies in several locations not displayed correctly for Hebrew [category-barchart] Added option to show ratios [html-chart] Add format style option for numbers Better wording for tax table changed info message. [register] Checkbox any value other than 0x20 (ASCII space) is true. Because it can be X or U+2716 now and could be something else in future. Fixes in particular the disappearing tax-included and tax-table in the Invoice/Bill entry register. [gnc-budget-view.c] modify GList in reverse because the GList modification in gnc_budget_view_refresh works on the tail end (see g_list_last being chopped off successively, followed by g_list_append successively), wherease it's much faster to work on the head end. Therefore: reverse, modify, and re-reverse. [Python Bindings]Provide the complete set of QOF enums in gnucash [Pyton Bindings]Provide wrapper for qof numeric predicate Python bindings already have some wrapping objects for qof predicates. This adds the one missing for GncNumeric comparisons. Additionally fixes a wrong number for QOF_NUMERIC_MATCH_ANY in example file. Remove commodity-table.scm, no longer required after adjusting qif-dialog-utils Preferences, Import: UPDATE AND RECONCILE should be UPDATE AND CLEAR on preference "Enable update match action" tooltip text. [register] Enable horizontal scrolling with a touchpad. [business]Add diagnostic messages to GncEntry and GncInvoice. Replace code style guidance with reference to the wiki Coding Standard page. Update Form/Schedule line references for 2021 for the US Income Tax Report Update the register help label when cell read only Change AR/AP Type cell to be read only The Type cell in AR/AP registers should not be changeable from the register so make the cell read only. Tip-of-the-Day, new tip: the full file path is shown in the status bar. [assistant-qif-import] Prevent ambiguous mnemonic Mnemonic N clashes with GtkAssistant "Next". Change to D which does not clash. Numerous performance and code-clarity improvements. New API: None Deprecations: None New and Updated Translations: Chinese (Simplified), Chinese (Traditional), Croatian, Czech, Dutch, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hebrew, Hungarian, Italian, Norwegian Bokmål, Portuguese, Portuguese (Brazil), Romanian, Slovak, Spanish, Spanish (Nicaragua), Swedish, Turkish, Ukrainian 4.9 - 19 December 2021 The tenth release of the 4.x Stable Series Between 4.8 and 4.9, the following bugfixes were accomplished: Bug 797502 - (RTL) - Right edge of the reports are locked while scrolling down Running gnucash in Hebrew, the right edge of the reports are locked while scrolling down and do not scroll with the rest of the report. Bug 797618 - Spanish translation of Shares and Stock Bug 797678 - OFX importer should supplement, not replace, existing Notes (and Description and Memo) fields Add an "Append" checkbox to the bottom of the "Generic import transaction matcher" window to the left of the "Reconcile after match" checkbox. When ticked, this causes the imported Description/Notes to be appended to the matched transaction Description/Notes respectively. The selected ticked/unticked state of the "Append" checkbox is saved in a key value pair for the import account, so the next import for that account will automatically default it to the saved state. As these mods are limited to the code for the matcher window, this should work for all the imports that use it - ie ofx & csv file imports (both tested) & aqbanking (cannot test). Bug 797772 - Allow reconciliation report to double filter by both posting and reconciliation date Bug 798222 - Account search dialog: Pushing enter does nothing Bug 798266 - Dropdown picker menu for category does not appear Bug 798313 - "File/Import/Import Transactions From CSV" crashes Gnucash. Bug 798320 - Error message indicating a crash of GNUcash when closing application - MacOS 10.15.7 (19H1419) Bug 798325 - New Currency for Venezuela (VED) Bug 798327 - Ofx import stops too early for multi-account OFX and one account has no new transactions Bug 798335 - No longer possible to change trading account Strip trading splits only if "Use Trading Accounts" is enabled for the book so that users who want to manage trading accounts by hand may do so. Bug 798341 - Right align in Hebrew - Account screen Bug 798346 - crashes when running check & repair Bug 798352 - Decimal Precision when Entering Mutual Fund Transaction Let xaccParseAmount parse up to 12 decimal places instead of 8. Bug 798382 - Typo corrections in comments The following fixes and improvements were not associated with bug reports: More memory leak plugging and GList efficiency improvements. Fix build with cmake older than 3.18 3.18 introduced 'cmake -E cat', but we still have to support versions starting from 3.14. [account-piecharts] don't use gnc:make-internal-option Several improvements to the experimental IFRS cost-basis report. Fix two minor issues with displaying links in the Document Link dialog. Fix obsolete links to bugzilla.gnome.org in translations. L18N: Fix glossary/es.po:906: duplicate message definition... 901: ...this is the location of the first definition [budget-flow] delay creating exchange-fn until a valid budget exists because it needs budget period end-date. [options.scm] Addon previous commit... need to initialize with guid [options.scm] gnc:make-budget-option stores guid instead of object because object may become stale if UI is used to delete it, leading to stale pointer and segfault. storing guid is safer, and will return null if budget is deleted. Support SEPA internal transfer Fix issue with failure to run reconciliation with all accounts present in a multi-account OFX file. Do that by saving a GList of statements, rather than a pointer to a single one. Also freeing of info happens during the call to process_next_file. Import of OFX files with many securities opens too many matching dialogs Because ofx import is currently split per target account, and since each security has its own accounts, importing such OFX is a tedious process. The fix is to only split the transactions if we identify a potential transfer, currently based on amount, date and accounts. To do that, we insert transactions one by one into a list, making sure we have not already inserted one that has the same date, and the same absolute amount. If we have, we keep this potential transfer for a second phase. A naive approach would loop through added transactions for each new transaction by that ends up being O(N^2), which matters if we have many transactions. Instead, I'm using a hash to make this O(N log N). [date-utilities.scm] remove unused date selectors code & string Adjust GNC_DEFINE_TYPE_EXTENDED_END To match new signature of g_once_init_enter and g_once_init_leave. glib headers should not be included with 'extern "C"'. Add explanatory note for gnc_add_scheme_deprecated_module test code [test-engine-extras] don't create splits of opposing amt/value signs Splits' value and amount should never be of opposite signs. Fix test book which had created this incorrect value/amount pair. Strengthen env-create-multisplit-transaction to disallow test book errors. [trep-engine] new option "Date Filter" to specify dates to filter by [dialog-sx-since-last-run] don't allocate repeatedly to combine strings [test-transaction] "Report Currency" renamed to "Report's currency" Separate the warnings for "cut split/transaction" and "delete split/transaction" [gnc-autoclear] Move autoclear algorithm into gnome-utils GSettings - fix GObject warning when old prefs-version is unset This will happen when current master (future 5.0) has been run at least once. [utest-gnc-pricedb] add tests for gnc_price_list_equal [reconcile-view][bug] dr/cr query tests amount instead of value Because split->amount and split->value are generally of equal sign, EXCEPT in stock transactions whereby split->value can be zero and split->amount is non-zero. e.g. a stock split transaction. Querying the split amount instead will allow stock accounts with stock splits to be reconciled. [split-register-model.c] Hide price==1 for zero-amount splits mainly of interest in zero-amount zero-value splits in the stock register eg dividend splits. [core-utils] introduce gnc:format (gnc:format str [binding value]...) str will contain ${binding} which will be replaced to value. [test-core-utils] uses srfi-64 [import-main-matcher] show destination acct for auto-match GSettings - add 'deprecate' and 'obsolete' conversions for user preferences 'deprecate' is technically a noop. It serves to remind maintainers the 'deprecated' preference is to be obsoleted in the next major release. 'obsolete' goes one step further in that it will cause gnucash to reset the preference, effectively clearing the value stored in the preferences backend. This is the final phase of a preference. Following this it will be completely removed from the GSettings schema in the next major release. Notes * 'deprecate' and 'migrate' are related. Both are a reminder the preference is to be obsoleted in the next major release. 'deprecate' does only that though while 'migrate' will also trigger a copy of the old value to a new location in the databse. * This commit readds a couple of preferences that had been removed in the past to be able to properly obsolete them (and to test the obsoleting code) New API: None Deprecations: None New and Updated Translations: Chinese (Simplified), Chinese (Traditional), Croatian, French, German, Hebrew, Italian, Norwegian Bokmål, Portuguese, Portuguese (Brazil), Spanish, Ukranian. 4.8 - 28 September 2021 The ninth release of the 4.x stable series. This is a snap release to fix a crasher bug on Linux. The only changes are [gsettings] Avoid crash from settings schema not being registered. Rethink how gsettings migration file is constructed GSettings hotfix - resolve crash due to bad schema reference 4.7 - 26 September 2021 The eighth release of the 4.x stable series. Compatibility Notice In order to allow flatpak users to share preferences with installations outside of the sandbox we need to change the preference path from /org/gnucash to /org/gnucash/GnuCash. This release of GnuCash does that and it will automatically migrate existing preferences. It does not, however, continue to write preferences to the old path and it runs the migration only once. If you go back and forth between GnuCash 4.7 and an older versions you'll have two sets of preferences, one for GnuCash 4.7 and later and another for GnuCash 4.6 and earlier. This includes the file history list and last-opened file. Between 4.6 and 4.7, the following bugfixes were accomplished: Bug 87847 - RFE: Create a 'checkbox' cell type Bug 766052 - Job report payments wrong when payment contains splits Bug 797596 - New-owner - improved representation of payments with multiple non-APAR splits Bug 798142 - Tax rate appears as a fraction Bug 798180 - Update to macOS Big Sur 11.3 breaks Finance Quote Bug 798205 - Some transactions dropped with no apparent cause or warnings for credit card ofx import Do not exclude from import a transaction that has an FITID which matches an already existing split. This is because it (1) may be a coincidence and therefore the transaction needs to be added or (2) could be on a transfer from the account being imported to another bank account which has already been imported, and so needs to be matched, not added. Bug 798208 - management fee transactions are ignored on OFX import Bug 798211 - Equity statement double calculates unrealized gain Bug 798219 - apply/OK truncates exchange rates from 4 to 2 decimal places; enter doesn't Bug 798221 - Transfer funds between accounts with different currencies crashes Gnucash on macOS Bug 798224 - Scheduled transactions are created with date-entered copied from the template transaction. Bug 798229 - GncDate::c_formats is being created and destroyed twice resulting in a double free crash on every exit. Bug 798234 - Cut Transaction discards the reference to the description/memo strings so that Paste Transaction will paste uninitialised data (or other strings) Bug 798235 - Reconciliation Ending Balance not recalculated the 2nd and subsequent times Statement Date is updated. Bug 798237 - Logging during XML file loading degrades performance significantly Bug 798238 - "New security" dialog doesn't save the "Display symbol" Bug 798250 - Gnucash permanent hang on save while loading report Bug 798256 - Crash in recnFinishCB Bug 798298 - Re-imported transactions no longer ignored Bug 798303 - account list is sorted wrong by amount Bug 798312 - Opening the help for dialogues in the wrong language. The following fixes and improvements were not associated with bug reports: Lots of memory-leaks plugged Change the preferences path to org.gnucash.GnuCash to comply with flatpak requirements and migrate existing preferences to the new paths. This won't provide for automatic sync between a system-installed GnuCash and a flatpak one unless the system-installed one is GnuCash 4.7 or later. Please see the Wiki for more information and a procedure to convert your existing preferences. Cleanup - minimal glib=2.56.1 - drop all conditionals on older versions Add code to handle ofx files that include transfers between accounts During transaction import, ignore splits whose account is not the destination account Do not drop a potential match just because it has an online_id. Now that we don't exclude from import a transaction with an FITID that matches an already existing transaction, if one accidentally re-imports a transaction, this allows it to be automatically matched against the previously imported transaction. Add test for Transaction GetDate() in python bindings, pursuant to Bug 798284. In find customer dialog, add a column for "Shipping Contact" parameter Prep early splash screen messages for translation Change text for SX preference option 'Review created transactions' to better align with existing SX text. Fixed an XML backend problem where trying to open a locked file would clear the lock even if one didn't ask to, so the next attempt would find the file unlocked even if still open in another instance. Fix 2 crashes in Generic Transaction Matcher Handle very large denominators from Finance::Quote's OpenExchange source Update file extension in man pages per mailing list post. Changed some option names: * From "Show Accounts until level" to "Levels of Subaccounts" * From "Extra notes" to "Extra Notes" * From "Report title" to "Report Title" * From "Invoice number" to "Invoice Number" to ensure it matches all other invoice reports. Fix missing mnemonic keys after changes to GNCAmountEdit With the changes to GNCAmountEdit, the way the mnemonic keys are associated to the entry widget of the GNCAmountEdit needs to change so have created a function gnc_amount_edit_make_mnemeonic_target which does the same as GNCDateEdit. Fix rounding in Stock Split Assistant to correct earlier commit that rounded the share price to that of the currency. [Portfolio Reports] Allow share digits to 9 decimal places to match the maximum commodity fraction. New API: None Deprecations Date options with a time of day setting. Removing the only use, an example in hello-world.scm. GnuCash doesn't use this value in any of its own report options and the feature will be removed in GnuCash 5. Related to bug 798297 Pref "Use 24-hour clock" obsolete?. gnc:owner-report-create New and Updated Translations: Chinese (Simplified), Croatian, Finnish, French, German, Hebrew, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese, Portuguese (Brazil), Swedish, Ukrainian 4.6 - 27 June 2021 The seventh release of the 4.x stable series. Between 4.5 and 4.6, the following bugfixes were accomplished: Bug 648335 - Display Created Transactions setting Add a preference for the 'Review Created Transactions' setting in the 'Sinse Last Run' dialog so that the default can be specified. Bug 743753 - Nearest in time security price selection is incorrect in reports Add new price source - 'nearest before report date' will ignore prices *after* report date. Bug 743999 - Deleting a digit from an existing number greater than four digits in length generates an error message. Because the grouping is off. Checking grouping on input is pointless so just ignore the grouping separator when parsing number input. Bug 753283 - Current Selection Highlight Lost After Transaction Edit in Scheduled Transaction Window Bug 787813 - Price change from editing a transaction not reflected in pricedb. Bug 794877 - Intro text of "Online Banking Setup" is outdated Bug 795804 - Extremely slow save Only update the status bar when the percentage changes by at least 1% because running the mainloop is expensive on macOS and Microsoft Windows. This speeds up all operations that run the progress bar with overly-fine resolution. Bug 796761 - Newline (char(10)) is inserted into the end of the string if copy & paste text from excel into the description field of transaction Bug 797787 - Feature request: preference setting to open new tabs adjacent to currently active tab Tests preference; if enabled then new tab inserted after current. if disabled then new tab is at the end. Bug 797928 - Since last run asks for security price when no shares traded Bug 798093 - Changing the symbol/abbreviation of a security after the trading account was created breaks GnuCash.(Reopened) Bug 798133 - Gnucash crash when any custom action is entered Bug 798144 - Reconciliation uses different number than entered If a number was pasted into the balance end value with a currency symbol the number would silently fail on evaluate and cause the wrong value to be used. With previous changes to the GNCAmountEdit widget a warning symbol will indicate a validation error and prevents going forward. Bug 798148 - "Accounts" page Present (USD) column uses future prices Bug 798151 - Value entry box not tied to associated transaction in Since Last Run assistant Bug 798156 - glib 2.68.0 breaks gnucash Bug 798159 - Keyboard shortcut bug in 'manage document link' Bug 798162 - Type Ahead Initialization Problem Bug 798170 - Unbound variable: gnc-budget-lookup when running saved report Budget Report via gnucash-cli Bug 798177 - Price of new stock transactions not saved in price database Bug 798186 - Incorrect result editting account in register when overtyping a part selection. Bug 798188 - The Invoice Editor -> Printable Invoice toolbar button crashes on Windows Bug 798196 - not building with Boost 1.76 Bug 798199 - Pasting invalid value in date column crashes GnuCash Bug 798202 - Register input ignores theme on KDE rendering black text on black background Bug 798203 - g_assert fault while reversing transaction Bug 798204 - Creation of Imbalance Accounts Bug 798212 - right-click the down-arrow in the date register changes focus to first split The following fixes and improvements were not associated with bug reports: Improve transaction sorting on effective num field so that alpha charachters and numbers larger than 1 billion will be ordered. Ordering is now numeric for leading numbers (so that 9 sorts before 10) and lexical beginning with the first non-numeric character. Note that if one of the values begins with an alpha character ordering will be entirely lexical. Lexical sorting is localized; as in the rest of GnuCash only standard ASCII numbers (codepoints U+0030 - U+0039) are treated as numbers. Add import preferences for the difference in time considered when matching an existing transaction to an imported one. A difference less than the matching-date-threshold raises the score of the match; a difference greater than match-date-not-threshold lowers the score. Add experimental report "IFRS weighted-average cost basis report". This is a work-in-progress to help calculate the cost basis of securities priced in a foreign currency. [income-gst-statement] amend headers post Brexit. UK left EU, therefore VAT headers have now changed. Plug a bunch of memory leaks. Change how the print_info is obtained for the register: Currently the register sets up some 'print_info' values using the default account but if the register is a stock register they should be obtained from a parent account with a currency. Change monetary value for gnc_default_share_print_info: Share values are not currencies so set the monetary value to 0 for the GNCPrintAmountInfo Parse the register monetary cells for a currency symbol: Add the ability to strip the currency symbol from a registry monetary cell if it is pasted with one so it can be validated. SKR-49 Account Template: Add codes 4500-4504, drop a duplicate, correct code 0674. [gnc-plugin-page-register] Disable reverse on blank split Make balancing transactions with trading accounts easier by removing and recalculating all trading splits. This ensures that there will be only one trading split pair per exchange and relieves the user of having to adjust the trading splits to match the accounting splits. Don't bother scrubbing for orphans if there's no transaction currency. If it found one it would try to create an orphan account with no currency which will crash later. [chartjs] upgrade chartjs to 2.9.4. Fixes CVE-2020-7746 [report-core] disallow define-report with incomplete export info. If exporting is allowed, 'export-types and 'export-thunk must both be defined. [test-engine-extras] augment book data generators ignore .vscode folder Reorder and relabel price source list for better coherence Python Bindings: Provide a deprecated GncPriceDB.lookup_latest_before_t64 to avoid breaking user scripts. Update gnucash_core.py with gnc-pricedb function name change Change some functions to use const gnc_commodity for gnc_pricedb Reformat schedule transaction source files for white space Add depreciation warnings for the removal of individual option tool tips Remove individual tool tips from radio button options Removes the function gnc_option_permissible_value_description ESC key was not working on load of Scheduled Transaction Editor [budget.scm] show correct tooltip for report option [html-acct-table] Remove unused 'pre-adjusting balances option Bugfix: export-code for category-barchart reports would fail. This stems from trying to handle file-name when calling export code. Export code no longer require file-name, The export-code returns a string in the html-document object instead. Remove all file-name handling in reports. No backward compatibility issues because most users would not copy a GnuCash >=4.6 report code onto a <4.5 installation. [gnucash-cli] improve discoverability of export-type. Formerly, selecting --export-type EXT would dump the cryptic "Report REPORTNAME has no export code". Modify to hint the user on acceptable reports with export-code. New API [report-utilities] Functions to dump splits in whole book: gnc:dump-book - splits grouped by account gnc:dump-all-transactions - splits grouped by transaction gnc:dump-split - dumps single split Rename a couple of gnc-pricedb functions that have not been used: gnc_pricedb_lookup_latest_before_t64 to gnc_pricedb_lookup_nearest_before_t64 gnc_pricedb_lookup_latest_before_any_currency_t64 to gnc_pricedb_lookup_nearest_before_any_currency_t64 Add retrieval functions for price before the date given: gnc_pricedb_convert_balance_nearest_before_price_t64 that retrieves the balance using the last price dated before a specified date like today for the preset value. gnc_pricedb_get_nearest_before_price does the retrieval.

Between 4.4 and 4.5, the following bugfixes were accomplished: Bug 783283 - Multi-Currency payments use wrong date Also properly handles the user clicking the cancel button on the transfer dialog. It will now just return to the payment window, waiting for further user input. Bug 797621 - GnuCash freezes temporarily and sometimes crashes when selecting Sales Tax Table in Invoices Bug 797630 - Check for missing dependencies of 'Get Quotes' to avoid Gnucash crash. Bug 797906 - GnuCash data file is locked after a "save-as" to mysql database. It's more general, any save-as to a different backend type, i.e. xml->sql or sql->xml, left the previous book locked. Bug 797924 - Crash when searching for customer to process payment. Bug 797997 - File gnucash could note be found On Microsoft Windows when run from a CMD shell and passing a path that contains non-ASCII characters. Bug 798019 - Currency rates in OFX file are ignored Use currency_rate information from OFX file if available. Requires LibOFX v 0.10.0 or later. Bug 798044 - Adding splits to a lot is extremely slow Bug 798060 - Invoices are missing on Customer report after upgrade Bug 798070 - Opening balance does not update when creating account from Account Hierarchy Bug 798078 - Report 'Income Chart' prints stacktrace when end date before start date Bug 798085 - Incorrect transactions import of entires with large number amount Quicken 2005 introduces U amount which sometimes differs from T amount. U amount has larger range, and must override T amount whenever they're not equal. Bug 798093 - Changing the symbol/abbreviation of a security after the trading account was created breaks GnuCash. Makes it possible for the user to rename trading accounts or securities independent of each other. Bug 798096 - can't duplicate TX previous to red line threshold Bug 798098 - Crash popup show when have 3 Windows in OSX Bug 798100 - Equity totals calculating incorrectly Prevents creation of non-currency opening balance accounts. Bug 798101 - Do not #undef __STRICT_ANSI__ Remove defines and undefines for Windows, they were needed with MinGW classic but are not with MinGW-w64. Bug 798104 - Menu item for "Import Account" is wrong in danish Bug 798112 - An error occurred while processing mysql ... A "Feature" of MYSQL is that it allows C-style backslash escapes in string constants and replaces them with the actual character (e.g. \n is converted to 0x0a). This causes round trip problems if the escape is one of the allowed ones and a MYSQL error if it isn't. Disable the feature so that MYSQL follows the SQL standard. Bug 798132 - Invoice Importing crashes when importing low quantity values. Bug 798135 - GtkEntry text with search list: shows selected entry again for no reason Bug 798147 - Notes entry crashes program Bug 798149 - CSV transaction Import setting loses account name if it is changed after setting is memorized Account guid is saved as well as the full account name and when recalled the account is looked up first by guid, if this fails the full account name is checked which if successful immediately updates the saved base account setting with the account guid for future use. If unsuccessful the account combo is blank with a error message as before. When save CSV settings button is used, both the Guid and full paths are saved so previous versions can still use the full path as before. Bug 798150 - Error on report over time Caused by incorrect handling of Daylight Savings beginning at midnight. Bug 798154 - Tooltips wrong when multiple charts in one report The following fixes and improvements were not associated with bug reports: Fix building based on unix makefiles Make the chart on the report page icon larger to align better with the account page icon. Allow the context menu when GncCellRendererTextView is in edit mode. Restructure early locale initialization * Move macOS specific bits to its own source file. As this is objective-c use .mm extension * Use common function signature for macOS and Windows init function and include via common header file Fix GncDateTime::format_zulu to emit the UTC timezone instead of the GncDateTime's timezone with the UTC timestamp. Fix the implementations of gnc_foo_get_day_neutral. As implemented these returned 10:59 AM local on the day but neutral time is 10:59 UTC. gnc_invoice_window_print_invoice return NULL if invoice is NULL. [dialog-invoice] invoice editor reuses invoice report tab. Allow for Header Bar use in CSV transaction Assistant There are a couple of action buttons that are added to the CSV transaction assistant with added alignment based on the action area being a GtkBox which causes errors if the header bar is used so test for the action area type and use appropriate specific functions. Drop default locale currency special case for euro The condition mentioned in the comment no longer applies. All European locales on Windows (MingW64) properly present EUR as currency these days. Fix fencepost error in calculating the week_num for POSIX timezone rules. Include the contents of PROJECT_DESCRIPTION in the PACKAGE_PREFIX. If it's defined. PACKAGE_PREFIX is used to name tarballs and set their base directory. The translation project has requested that we name freeze-string tarballs with a pre1 suffix; this makes that possible. Update python/gnucash_business.py to reflect rename of gncOwnerApplyPayment.

Balsheet-pnl report: show most recent period first by default Change register page icon to a padlock if read only When a resister is read only make whole sheet insensitive. Add account name to the read-only-register dialog box because under some circumstances it may be unclear to which register the message applies. Strictly use use-modules to import Scheme symbols: Guile 3.0 doesn't like the alternatives. This can cause problems resolving symbols if the source of those symbols isn't yet compiled and hasn't been symlinked into the builddir. Don't try to reload report if the first attempt raised an html error. Barcharts: Limit account drill-down depth to 6. I18N:glossary: add mortgage terms ARM, APR, FRM Change the icons used for the file locked dialog box. Add support for the opening balance accounts flag Up to now, opening balance accounts have been identified by means of fixed names and their translations.

Updated Translations: Croatian, Finnish, German, Hebrew, Ukrainian 3.906 - 21 June 2020 The fifth unstable release leading to the new 4.x stable series. This is the release-candidate: Barring any serious bugs it's what we'll release as 4.0. Between 3.905 and 3.906, the following bugfixes were accomplished. Some of these will also be fixed in GnuCash 3.11, some are for 4.0 only. Bug 797808 - Caps Lock Breaks Almost Everything Bug 797811 - GnuCash crashes with segfault when saving to mysql when database already exists.

Updated Translations: Ukrainian 3.905 - 14 June 2020 The fourth unstable release leading to the new 4.x stable series. See 3.902 and 3.903 below for additional requirements and features. Between 3.904 and 3.905, the following bugfixes were accomplished. Some of these will also be fixed in GnuCash 3.11, some are for 4.0 only. Bug 796993 - Gnucash should warn the user in case of missing Alphavantage API key instead of silently failing Bug 797531 - Improve behaviour when following a hyperlink to a split that's filtered in the register. Currently if a jump to a filtered register is made, this could be from a report, other register, reconcile window and transaction associations and the destination split is not shown the jump will end up at the last active cell. This could be confusing so add a test for the destination split being visible and warn the user with an option to temporarily clear the filter. Bug 797746 - [reports] German umlauts not escaped Bug 797790 - [Transaction Association] Change dialogue: use existing information to determine the default folder. When there is no association set, if the file option is chosen set the default folder for the file chooser to that of the path head preference. Bug 797791 - [Windows] list of command line options after 'gnucash.exe --help'? Make gnucash-cli a console application on Windows so that its output will be redirected to the connected console. Bug 797799 - Add Tip of the Day for "Notes" field Bug 797804 - Date entry field is glitchy (v3.904 regression) The following fixes and improvements were not associated with bug reports or new features: Ensure balance-sheet balances do not ignore closing entries, including them in closing balances from profit&loss. [balsheet-pnl] value-collector doesn't need to ignore closing. The value-collector is only used to tally account balances for asset&liability accounts. These accounts never have closing entries. No need to test closing property. [trep-engine] don't create intermediate cells object. From cell-calculators (a list of column-info), the cells object (list of column-data) was created unnecessarily. use cell-calculators directly. [gnucash-cli] --report show/list outputs to stdout and their error messages output to stderr. I18N: Improve tooltip about double-line-mode. Suggestion by Adrien Monteleone. Drop unused boost::locale::generator instantiations. We now have one single case in gnc-locale-utils and all code uses gnc_get_boost_locale to get the proper locale. Fix translations using boost::locale::translate Fix report dependencies that caused Xcode build failure. Update Schedule Transaction Template dialog status bar. Copy the functions from gnc_main_window that updates the status bar with the action tooltips to gnc_window so that both GncMainWindow and GncEmbeddedWindow can use without duplicating code. Add the Register width menu options to the Scheduled Transaction Template dialog. [balance-sheet] hide trading-accounts if use-trading-accts? is unset. Fix a null parent error in the New Account Hierarchy Assistant. Updated Translations: German 3.904 - 7 June 2020 The third unstable release leading to the new 4.x stable series. See 3.902 and 3.903 below for additional requirements and features. 3.903 was the feature-freeze release. However, the command-line arguments for both gnucash and gnucash-cli have been adjusted as follows: --add-price-quotes is changed to --quotes get --run-reports is changed to --report run --name Added --report list to produce a list of available reports. Added --report show --name to describe the options changed from the default values in the named report. The intent is to have command categories with subcommands to better enable a richer command line capability as illustrated with the new report commands list and show. Between 3.903 and 3.904, the following bugfixes were accomplished. Some of these will also be fixed in GnuCash 3.11, some are for 4.0 only. Bug 797739 - Tweak Transaction Report Column Defaults Bug 797774 - Add tooltips to abreviated header columns for all table like GUI elements The Bill/Invoice due reminder has a column header of 'CN?' which was unclear of meaning which is 'Is this xxx a Credit Note'. A tooltip was suggested but a better fix is to change the column to display the 'Type' so you would see Bill, Invoice or 'Credit Note' just like you see in the find dialog. Bug 797775 - Rate/Price displayed as fractional in CSV Export Change the CSV transaction exporter to follow the Preference setting of 'General->Force Prices to display as decimals'. Bug 797781 - Num Field Regression - characters in wrong order when typed. The following fixes and improvements were not associated with bug reports or new features: Add a tooltip for the 'C' column in the Chart of Accounts To match existing one character headings for 'Place Holder' and 'Hidden' columns. Add first version of gnucash-cli manpage Rework command line option parsing to store values directly in class member variables [cli-reports] modify to open session readonly 3.903 - 1 June 2020 The second unstable release leading to the new 4.x stable series. See 3.902 below for additional requirements and features. New Dependency: Boost program_options. New Features: A new separate executable, gnucash-cli (gnucash-cli.exe on Microsoft Windows) for doing command-line things like updating the prices in your book. gnucash-cli gains the ability to run reports from the command line. Specify reports to run by name or guid. It also provides an export format and an output file name without which it will output the report to stdout. Report Synopsis: gnucash --run-report=[reportname/guid] datafile.gnucash gnucash --run-report=[reportname/guid] --output-file=x.html datafile.gnucash gnucash --run-report=[reportname/guid] --output-file=x.html --export-type=TYPE datafile.gnucash When deleting accounts the destination accounts of moved splits will be checked to ensure that they're the same as the source. If they're not you'll get a warning and the opportunity to pick another account or to carry on regardless. New type-ahead search added to sequential search when selecting an account in the register: Instead of typing the first few characters of a top level account, the separator, the first few characters of the next level account and so on you may instead type a few characters of any part of a full account name and the drop-list will be filtered to contain only matching accounts. Once you have a small enough list you can use the arrow keys to select the account that you want. Python bindings are now localized and their strings available for translation. The new reports introduced in the Experimental Reports menu are moved to the main menu and the old reports hidden; the old reports can be unhidded by running GnuCash from the commandline with the --extra argument. That will cause the old reports to appear in their regular locations on the menu labeled legacy. Note that new reports use different options and layouts and you may need to adjust your saved report configurations. A new Transaction Association dialog, available from the new Update Transaction Association item in the register context menu, provides the ability to have multiple associations for a single transaction. Associations may now be easily removed. Allow Associations to be added to invoices. The actual association when present is added as a link button which is shown below the notes. A symbol is now displayed on transactions in the register when they have an attachment and the selected font supports the symbol. The OFX file importer can now import more than one file at a time. A new report menu supbmenu Multicolumn contains the old custom-multicolumn report and a new Dashboard report containing Account reports for expenses and income, an income-expense chart, and an account summary. When importing, the matcher will no longer offer to match a transaction to one that has already matched in a previous import, nor will it offer to match more than one imported transaction to a single existing transaction. When no file is open don't ask to save it when opening another file or quitting GnuCash. Support for UK VAT and Australian GST added to the Income-GST report. The reports options are changed from source accounts to source sales and purchase accounts to permit proper reporting of capital purchases. N.B. This is incompatible with previous versions of the report and will require regenerating saved configurations. Add option to save Layout for Business items. Add two menu items under windows, one to save an existing layout for Invoices, Bills and Vouchers to there respective default layouts so the user set column widths will be used. The second menu item will reset the column widths to defaults and remove the default layout. Open Business items will also save there column widths to the page section so these can temporarily have different widths. Newly Revised Reports Income GST Significant Code Changes: gnucash-bin.c has been split into 4 parts, mostly C++: * gnucash.cpp, the GUI executable. * gnucash-cli.cpp, the command-line executable. * gnucash-commands.cpp, implementation for the commands that can be run from the command-line. * gnucash-app-core.cpp, common code required by both the command line and gui programs. * There's also an auxiliarty file, gnucash-windows-locale.c because the localization code proved resistant to compiling as C++. We're planning another auxiliary file for the MacOS localization. A new mock facility for several engine classes to permit better-isolated unit testing of components that depend on those classes. Register filter and sort values are saved in the book's state file (book.gcm) in the user's configdir instead of in the book. QofSession no longer creates its book, instead one must create a book first and pass that to qof_session_new()/QofSession::QofSession(). Add option to save Layout for Register itemsAdd two menu items under windows, one to save an existing register layout based on the register type to there respective default layouts so the user set column widths will be used when opening registers. The second menu item will reset the column widths to defaults and remove the associated default layout. Open registers will also save there column widths to the page section so these could can temporarily have different widths. Add option to save Layout for Business items. Add two menu items under windows, one to save an existing layout for Invoices, Bills and Vouchers to there respective default layouts so the user set column widths will be used. The second menu item will reset the column widths to defaults and remove the default layout. Open Business items will also save there column widths to the page section so these can temporarily have different widths. Input Method handling in the register is moved to the GtkEntry where it belongs. Between 3.10 and 3.901, the following bugfixes were accomplished: Bug 796531 - transaction report: export file/location associated with transaction. Displays the Transaction Association link in the Transaction Report and when selected will open the association outside of Gnucash as it currently does when opened from the register. Bug 796932 - Invoices order when assigning paymentssorts documents in dialog-payment.c by date, then by document ID. Bug 797052 - Autofill Selection is Corrupted After Clicking Description Bug 797185 - [transaction association window] sorting by column. Bug 797185 - Allow sorting on all Transaction Association columns Bug 797220 - delete account allows move of all transactions to account having non-matching currency Bug 797236 - Regression: Reconcile window transaction list resets to top when new transaction created in account. Bug 797264 - 3.5 can't use Chinese IME input. Bug 797329 - Using Japanese IME to enter transactions results in unexpected field jumps Bug 797388 - GnuCash 3.6 segfaults regularly. Bug 797648 - Cannot reconcile both splits of a transaction with 2 splits for bank account subaccounts if only 1 is cleared Bug 797659 - Liabilities in budget report no longer calculate correctly Bug 797689 - Child dialog windows are demoted behind parent window when task switching. Bug 797707 - CSV Transaction Export: custom dates should be insensitive by default Bug 797717 - Summary bar changes height when opening a menu or scrolling over an option Bug 797737 - Import matching can match an imported transaction to an existing, previously matched transaction Bug 797743 - Monetary amounts are occasionally rendered in fractions Bug 797745 - Unable to change default report currency Bug 797748 - missing header "algorithm" Bug 797750 - SIGSEV in swig-engine.c Bug 797754 - In an account register, scrolling stops working when the mouse pointer re-enters the scrollbar after leaving it. Bug 797760 - Broken register split activity--cannot delete splits, unable to tab complete account name. Bug 797761 - Customer report beta: opening balance tax column shows garbage string Bug 797768 - View Lots sorting numbers not right. Bug 797770 - Reconciliation report does not consider credit transactions The following fixes and improvements were not associated with bug reports or new features: Add an Invoice section to dialog-utils for when the path head changes. Change the position the register pop up so it aligns better. Fix the alignment of the Notes label in Transfer dialog. Set the initial Split horizontal paned position to be half way when the window is realized. Set the expanding columns in the lot viewer to be the 'Title' and the 'Description'. Also ellipsize the description to help with long transaction descriptions. Change the alignment of the numeric values in the lot viewer to be right aligned so the numbers line up. [new-aging] speed up split->ownerseveral speed ups 1. split->owner will now cache results, bypassing gncOwnerGetOwnerFromLot and gncInvoiceGetInvoiceFromLot for repeated calls to the same split. 2. previously each call to split->owner would allocate a new gncOwner. Now a new gncOwner is only allocated during a cache miss. the list of gncOwners is maintained and is purged when split->owner is called with #f. There is no need to maintain a to-free list of gncOwners anymore. 3. instead of slow gncOwnerReturnGUID to test equality, use gncOwnerEqual. Fix crash in case filter is less than 4 parameters. Change the Options GtkCheckBox to use its own built-in label and remove the label in the first column. widgets. Enable the Options Checkbox label to be used to toggle values. Add enum SplitRegisterTypeGroup to group registers. Change state_section parameter for gnc_table_save_state Fix clang error about type mismatch GtkWidget* != void* aka gpointer. HIG, I18N: Improve Budget menu entries I18N: fix translator comments in window-reconcile.c I18N: Fix several issuse with 'Help not found' strings [QofLog] Replace hashtable with tree of vectors: 16x speedup. Make qof_log_set_file static. Used only internally. Move QofLogModule typedef to qoflog.h where it belongs. [balsheet-eg] don't use safe-cadr and safe-cdr They are safety hacks which indicate inability to deal with lists. Use lists properly. [eguile-utilities] deprecate single-use function used only by balsheet-eg.scm [balsheet-eg] use "foreign" css class correctly. [eguile-gnc] don't catch errors in eguile-gnc Initially select the last account chosen in the account picker dialogs. Separately keeps track of last investment account, security account, and income account. One issue is that gnc_import_select_account doesn't tell the caller if it put up a dialog or found the online ID on an existing account. This means the last account may be one the user didn't manually select. Transaction matcher dialogue was not closing when changing book. Correct parent widget for import new account dialog. No Selection on load for Bill Terms. Change the selection process so it selects the first entry if present on load and also selects a newly created entry when completed. Change the Tax Table dialogue to be based on a GtkWindow.

L10N:de: "Für" klein in "Ergebnisrechnung für Periode" etc. I18N: Msgmerge recent changes I18N: Hotfix for bug 797725Add a translator comment L10N:de_CH: Ein weiterer Tippfehler im Kontenrahmen KMU [test-stress-options] fix combinatorics testing Premise: pairwise combinatorics testing is only possible when all options have at least 2 options. The "General Journal" report is unique because it starts with the Transaction Report options generator, and adds a few hidden options. Unfortunately the Transaction Report receives the "General/Stylesheet" option, with only 1 default stylesheet. The General Journal report therefore has 1 stylesheet option with only 1 choice, and is not acceptable to jenny for pairwise testing. It would fail the combinatorics testing. Adding other stylesheets did not successfully allow pairwise testing. Therefore the simplest way to test General Journal is to disable multichoice testing whereby num(choices) is only 1. [Account.cpp] more xaccAccountTypeGetFundamental types Fix the crash that occurs when opening a new book when the transaction-matching dialog has been opened then closed. Display report zoom factor with one decimal space. Fix transaction post_date being set to midnight local. Respect the environment LD_LIBRARY_PATH for loading Scheme modules and tests.

The install location changed as part of expunging libgnc-module. Updated Translations: German, Swiss German, Ukrainian Known Problems: Bug 797708 - Reconcile Dialog on Import Bug 797746 - [reports] German umlauts not escaped 3.902 - 27 April 2020 The first unstable release leading to the new 4.x stable series. 3.901 should have been the first release but it had build problems after tagging. Baseline requirements Operating Systems: Linux: Ubuntu 18.04LTS MacOS: 10.13 Windows: 8.1 Software Dependencies: C++ standard is now C++17, requires gcc 8.0 or clang 6.0. Cmake 3.10 boost 1.67.0 gettext 0.19.6 for general use, 0.20 to generate gnucash.pot. glib-2.0 2.56.1, gtk 3.22.30 googletest 1.8.0 ICU, any version. libdbi 0.8.3 libxml2 2.9.4 swig 3.0.12 Now required for building from tarballs as well as from git. Webkit 2.4.11 Mac & Win32, 2.14.1 Linux/BSD New Features The matcher window columns are changed from R to C and from U+R to U+C, reflecting that the matcher marks transactions cleared but doesn't reconcile them. OFX imports having balance information will now offer to immediately reconcile, passing the balance information in the file to the reconcile info. Improve quickfill in the account pickers to filter the choices based on any part of the name. The GnuCash widget hierarchy for CSS has been revised to be more consistent with Gtk practice. You may need to spend some time with the GtkInspector to get your custom CSS back the way you like it. New Account - Online Account match list to the Import Map Editor. New invalid maps dialog in the Import Map Editor Optionally include the account code option in budget view. Account matcher will decline to match accounts with a different commodity from the imported split if the import information includes the commodity. Ellipsize the Description and Memo fields in the account matcher. Enable adding notes to budgets. (Bug 693180) Support for AQBanking Version 6. This is required to support new FinTS protocols and the European Privacy Directive. GnuCash 4.x will not migrate old gconf settings from GnuCash 2.4.x. New/Revised Reports Owner Report Significant Code Changes The source directories have been rearranged and most of the loadable modules (e.g. libgncmod-engine.so) are now normal dynamic libraries (libgnc-engine.so), shorn of their gnc-module adapters. Make sure that you clean and rebuild your build directory. All functions marked as deprecated in 3.x are now removed. If you have custom reports be sure to examine gnucash.trace for deprecation warnings and update your reports before trying them in GnuCash 3.91. libgncmod-generic-import is now libgnc-generic-import. Scheme no longer uses libgncmodule, always do (use-modules (gnucash foo)) Autocompletion improvements for the transfer-account field. New test for invalid mappings for online accounts and a dialog to fix them. jqplot is replaced by chartjs. Separate most Guile binding code from the code that it wraps. It's now located in bindings/guile. Improve Google test integration in cmake. CMake now requires only GTEST_ROOT and only when cmake isn't able to find Google test without help.Unit tests for Scheme code with SRFI64. Deprecations (will be removed in GnuCash 5.0) gnc:substring-replace-from-to Between 3.10 and 3.901, the following bugfixes were accomplished: Bug 693180 - Add notes to budgeting values Bug 773198 - Move several reports to Example directory/menu Bug 773199 - Rename and rebuild Welcome to GnuCash Report Bug 773200 - Rename Sample & Custom Report Group Bug 782455 - Modify Add Reversing Transaction feature Bug 797114 - Fixing an SX due to deleted account stuck in an error loop Bug 797270 - Budget Chart report - translation of header and dates Bug 797338 - Change "U+R" and "R" labels to "U+C" and "C" in Import matcher Bug 797351 - General ledger register transaction becomes "zombie" after deletion Bug 797415 - cannot build without libsecret-1-dev Bug 797472 - Add option to choose account templates Bug 797485 - Show account hidden column on CoA. Bug 797486 - Add dialog to cascade placeholder and hidden Make changes to the existing cascade colour dialog to allow the selection of cascading colour, placeholder and hidden account properties Bug 797489 - No option to use account codes in Budget View - Part2 Add option to allow the account code column to be shown in the budget tree view and as such the account tree view can be sorted by this column Bug 797605 - RFE: Customer/Vendor/Employee Overview should also have "Process Payment" toolbar Bug 797612 - Add a dialog to the imap_dialog to show invalid maps Bug 797670 - scheduled transaction editor can remain open when switching file, which causes seg fault when later closed Bug 797677 - Price Database Saving Wrong Price for Foreign Currency Bug 797684 - GTK_DEBUG=interactive - Bail out - gdk_window_set_cursor_internal Bug 797697 - Enable DEP and ASLR for the Windows build Added hardening flags. The following fixes and improvements were not associated with bug reports: Fix 3 problems with the scheduled transactions calculations * Set a monthly recurrence on the 10th with a start date on the 20th of this month. The editor correctly shows the next occurrence to be on the 10th of the following month. The schedule transaction summary dialog incorrectly shows the next occurrence to be on the 10th of this month (before the start date!) * Set a monthly recurrence on the 19th, with a start date on the 20th of this month. The editor's calendar marks incorrectly show the next occurrence to be on the 19th of this month (before the start date). * Set a monthly recurrence on the 18th, with a start date on the 20th and an end date on the 17 of the following month. The calendar should show no mark, but fails to erase the marks that were present. Fix issue when editing the account tree view notes field When you try to edit a multiline account notes field in the account tree view you end up with just one line with control characters as it is being edited with a GtkCellRenderText cell. To fix this I have added a new cell renderer based on a text view. Fix failed build of python tests and failed test in 3.10 tarball. Updated Translations: Croatian, Hebrew, Ukrainian 3.10 - 10 April 2020 The eleventh release of the 3.x stable series. This is a snap release to reverse the changes to the reconcile window's filtering reconciled transactions with a reconcile date after the current statement date when computing the starting balance. It seems that many users' books have accounts with reconcile dates in the future that were suddenly filtered out, creating an incorrect starting balance and making it impossible to reconcile the book. The following bugs have been fixed: Bug 620848 - Transfer Funds window - add Notes field Bug 797006 - Balance is misleading in open subaccounts when different currencies are involved Bug 797318 - Amounts ending in zero displayed as fractions Bug 797659 - Liabilities in budget report no longer calculate correctly candidate fix. Bug 797666 - libgnucash/engine/test/test-recurrence.c: In function 'check_valid': 'result' may be used uninitialized Bug 797676 - Register displays amount in transaction currency... instead of register currency. Other repairs or enhancements not marked as bugs: [window-reconcile] when reconciling, warn on splits having a reconcile date > statement_date [window-reconcile] when inputing statement_date, warn if it's after today [find-transactions] add search for reconciled date Show transaction value, not amount, for registers with subaccounts. If the register has subaccounts in different currencies and a transaction has splits in more than one, the transaction will incorrectly appear to be unbalanced if we total amounts because the balancing logic works on split values. Revert "Bug 797659 - Liabilities in budget report no longer calculate correctly" Reverted for snap release. Not tested thoroughly yet. Add instance argument to Session constructor in python bindings. Enables a python console to connect to the running GnuCash's session. Make python console less noisy without --debug. Provide locals and globals of calling context to the python console's shell on shell init Make pycons/ishell.py compatible with Python 3 and current IPython [eguile-utilities] prevent crash in balsheet-eg.scm [eguile] escape-html -> gnc:html-string-sanitize [qif-to-gnc] Properly mark intra-QIF internal transfers. Translations Updated: Ukrainian. 3.8 - 29 December 2019 The ninth release of the 3.x stable series. Note for German FinTS users: This release includes the latest fixes in support of the PSD2 changes. The Mac and Windows bundles include the current beta releases of AQBanking and its support library needed to work with most German banks' implementations of FinTS. Translators, Note Well: The obsolete "disambiguation prefix" translator comments are removed in favor of three-parameter gettext(). See https://lists.gnucash.org/pipermail/gnucash-devel/2019-September/044199.html The following bugs have been fixed: Bug 412151 - Not handling exception when guile is compiled w/o regexp support Disable qif-import and make-regexp if guile is compiled without regex.

The new versions may be found in Reports>Experimental. [stylesheet-css] a user-customisable CSS based stylesheet New stylesheet. Exposes a single text box for full CSS customisability. Allow account selection by typing into the post-to field of the payment window When sizing some register columns take account of 'Tot' being added. Take account for the pop up button border in the register. Change the date sample so it has the maximum text width possible [new-owner-report] bugfix: balance row needs variable linked cols Improve translations by scriptedly removing the removed colon suffix. [report-utilities] bugfix: aging-list was incorrect. off-by-1 error. [report-utilities] bugfix: overpayment works for AP accounts. Swap the buttons around on the Budget Open dialogue Swap the OK and Cancel buttons so they conform to the normal layout. [report-utilities] bugfix: fix overpayment detection For 1 payment to >1 invoices, previously would miscalculate overpayment. [budgets.scm] Budget reports handle both natural & reversed budgets. This change is protected by a Feature: Using it will prevent the file from being opened by earlier versions of GnuCash. [gnc-budget-view.c] totals - 5 fundamental types previous showed income/expense/transfers/totals budget totals, of uncertain meaning. now shows income/expense/asset/liability/equity budget totals. The 5 lines also become sensitive to the global sign-reverse property. bindings-python - drop references to gnucash-env We no longer ship a gnucash-env script, directly use python(3) instead [balsheet-pnl] fix: single-date balsheet missed printing date [balsheet-pnl] fix: hide Equity sections when not needed * If currencies are not converted, Unrealized Gains are meaningless. Hide them. * If there are no income/expense accounts, retained earnings will be nil. Remove row. Ignore trailing noise on imported transaction account numbers. AQBanking6 uses a separate method for retrieving account numbers for account info and transactions, where the transactions method can have additional characters, most often the ISO4217 currency code. That results in match failures when importing. As a work-around, compare only the length of the account-info-generated online id when comparing it to the transaction-generated one. Note that this is only a partial solution: At least one German bank also appends characters to the transaction-generated bank id and that will still cause the match to fail. [dialog-payment] Add warning label if payment is unattached Completing a payment for a customer without associating with an open invoice is allowable and is used for prepayments. Enable a warning to inform that the payment does not have an invoice/bill document attached. [aging] update error reporting This error handling was for transactions in APAR accounts whereby Transaction Currency != Owner Currency. An example is a manually entered transaction, then assigned as payment to a customer with a different currency. Update to modern API calls. Show the culprit split details. Fixed example output: IGNORING TRANSACTION! Invoice Owner: [None:] Transaction:Txn Splits are: Split Split Transaction Currency:GBP Client Currency:AUD Fixed German IBAN error message Allow edit of some fields for posted invoice Allow editing of some fields for posted invoice. For reasons, see bug report: https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=797400 [average-balance] show monetaries instead of numbers in data table UK VAT template: replace obsolete EEC and EC by EU Implements the presentation of static optical TAN challenges (photoTAN and QR) inside the enter TAN dialogue. [budget] fixcrash: fix crasher for some periods eg. the following combo would previously crash: - periods from next to current - use accumulated amounts [budget] fixcrash: prevent crash if periods start > end It's silly to input start-period > end-period. Nevertheless handle it by swapping them instead of crashing. i.e. report budget periods from end to start. [budget-flow] fixcrash: exchange-fn needs to specify exchange date because some exchange-fn *do* require date eg. pricedb-nearest. use the period end-date for the exchange date. [portfolio report] There's no report-currency. Use currency. [window-report] show backtrace when report crashes * exposes a SCM string last-captured-error containing last backtrace * when rendering report-crash window, include it New Scheme Functions: gnc:html-markup-ol: creates an HTML ordered list. gnc:multiline-to-html-textt: creates html-text with
elements. gnc:make-html-table-cell/min-width: Create a table-cell with min-width style attribute gnc:collector+ and gnc:collector- New Deprecations: gnc:html-table-append-ruler/at! gnc:html-table-remove-last-row! Translations Updated: Chinese(Simplified), Croatian, German, Hebrew, Ukrainian 3.7 - 8 September 2019 The eighth release of the 3.x stable series. Note for German FinTS users: This release in concert with AQBanking 5.8.0 is the first release to support the new product registration requirement that goes into effect 15 September 2019. The following bugs have been fixed: Bug 605602 - precision of Financial Calculator seems to depend on locale Bug 746937 - Template transaction splits are loaded in reverse order and then not sorted before saving. Actually not sorted after loading because the template accounts weren't being committed. Bug 752395 - Start Day of weekly report doesn't respond to change in locale Redefines some functions to ensure weekly grouping in transaction report obeys locale's start-of-week. Bug 784623 - GNUCash does not work with sql backend, I can open in read only mode. Upgrade the splits table as well, an oversight from the original fix. Bug 793018 - Balance (with >>eguile<<) - Report Title can't be changed Bug 795251 - googletest detection cannot be overridden Bug 796819 - bad icon with Spanish localization Temporary fix for Farsi, which was afffected, too. As it is maintained by TP, the final fix has to come from them. Bug 796952 - Report formatting (justify) is broken Previous patch reverted and replaced with a more correct one. Bug 797085 - Import Bills & Invoices – headers not translated. Make strings translatable. Translators: This adds 22 new translatable strings. Bug 797158 - gnc:make-account-sel-limited-option is not working Option was being deliberately reset to default_value every time. Bug 797171 - Allow multiple credit/debit columns to be selected Bug 797279 - Reports RTL do not support RTL - fix reports Bug 797279 - Reports RTL do not support RTL - fix string fix guile-2.0 string handling to prevent munging unicode in report-titles etc. while loading/saving reports Bug 797295 - problems with entering swedish åäö in company address Bug 797297 - GNUCash is in English even though MacOS is set-up to French. Bug 797301 - Register Menu View > Refresh doesn't work in 'with sub-accounts' window Bug 797306 - "URL cannot be shown" when one clicks an account line link in report. Bug 797316 - New Mauritanian ouguiya MRU not supported Bug 797319 - Mauritanian ouguiya MRO shows too few decimals Bug 797339 - Online banking frame to small Bug 797349 - "A"ssociate header badly translated. Note to translators: This is about msgids of the form "Associate:A". The correct msgstr includes the part up to the ':' verbatim with only the part to the right of it tranlated, e.g. "Associate:П" from uk.po. Each such msgstr has a comment explaining this. Bug 797353 - Add copyright and release info in appdata file Bug 797355 - General Journal report seems to be off balance Previously, for general-journal, each split was being analyzed, and only the source split was counted for totals. This change will means the source split *and* its peers are accounted for. Bug 797377 - cmake fails on debian-8 and ubuntu-14.04 with gnucash.appdata.xml.in does not exist Bug 797378 - QIF file import fails: Loading gives wrong type argument in position 2 Bug 797389 - Random Crashes while attaching a document. Other repairs or enhancements not marked as bugs: New feature: Multiselection in the import transaction matcher. Use control-left-click, shift-left-click, or click-and-drag to select multiple unmatched transactions to match them with a single account, then right-click to bring up a single-item context menu sith "Assign Transfer Account". Set a FinTS product version key when the installed AQBanking supports it. Reworking of many translatable strings with context to use the modern gettext three-parameter function instead of the ':' hack noted in bug 797349. Stop duplicate entries for the invoice taxtable cell Do not log an error when no default tax tables are set. Fix cmake dependency tree so that make/ninja check works without having to first run make/ninja. Remove the accelerator for the Clear buttons on the Loan Calculator because they were all the same and also the same as the Close button's accelerator. Change the transfer account notation for single-split transactions in basic view from "--Split Transaction--" (they're obviously not) to "None". Correctly parse decimal values between 0 and -1 (e.g. -0.5) in register caclulations: The negative sign was being stripped. Require CMake 3.5 or later for all platforms. Rework the building of libgtest.a from source when the builder sets GTEST_ROOT or the distro doesn't provide a pre-build one. Fix crash when trying to display a tooltip in the register split view when a split has focus. Fix repeated requests to create a new account when you click No. Suppress bogus error when creating a new account from register split view. Fix price conversion report crashes in Balance Sheet PNL and all average balance calculations. Upgrade the Budget reports to support accumulated accounts. Redefine gnc:debug to use QofLog instead of writing to stdout. Change the Balance Sheet PNL account depth to mean the deepest *selected* account rather than the deepest account. Set the Owner Report date option to default to today. Much Scheme cleanup and more testing.

Bug 797232 - dialog-ab.glade was written for gtk 2.16. Bug 797233 - Balance Sheet, Chart of Accounts, and other reports... crash when involving foreign currency stocks. Bug 797240 - Multicolumn report not showing each report name reportname was not correctly applied as the chart-title Bug 797241 - Some reports skip transactions of the last day of the selected period Bug 797244 - Remove the invert prices for less than 1 Bug 797246 - Cleared Balance Remains Red After Turning Positive Bug 797249 - Cutting home account causes transaction to disappear Bug 797262 - Change "Today date format" Bug 797266 - Missing translation settings Bug 797277 - Assets over time ignores nested liabilities Bug 797278 - Create an option for type of commodity for Price import Currently when you use the 'Commodity From' column for Price imports it can match against the wrong commodity like COP (Conoco Philips) would match against the currency COP (Columbian Peso). To fix this add a new column type 'From Namespace' and rename 'Commodity From' to 'From Symbol' so they match the Security Editor. Bug 797281 - Gnucash crashes when attempting to match online accounts Other repairs or enhancements not marked as bugs: Rewrite the Customer Summary Report to correctly handle multiple currencies. Improve the Owner Report's find-first function to consider currency when selecting the account. Prevent cutting the "anchor" split or pasting another split on top of it in account registers so that the transaction won't suddenly disappear from the register page. Displays an explanatory dialog just like trying to delete the anchor split does. Allow deleting, cutting, and pasting over all splits in Journal View registers which don't have anchor splits because they're not associated with any account. Disable editing the "blank split" (the new split at the bottom of a transaction in split view) if the transaction itself is read-only. Use the customer and vendor currency instead of the default currency from preferences when generating bills, invoices, or credit notes. Allow assigning a single target account to more than one transaction in the import matcher. To do this select the new transactions and right-click to open a single-item context menu. Click the menu item to open the account selection dialog box. Note that imported transactions that match transactions already in the eriger, i.e. those marked "update" or "reconcile and update" are not eligible for inclusion. This feature still has some rough edges that are being addressed for the next release. Use the default currency from Properties>Accounts for the summary bar currency to make it configurable. Allow CSV export of grand total amounts from reports using the trep-engine. Fix XML file import failures into GnuCash for Android. Raise minimum CMake version to 3.5 for all platforms. Prevent crash in Aging Report when the book has no AP or AR accounts. Fix operation of the "default budget" option. Change the account-picker dialog to disable the OK button instead of raising a warning dialog if the selected account is a placeholder. Fix crash after unloading all files from the QIF import assistant. Disable the Next button in the QIF import assistant if no files are selected for import. New report "Balance Sheet-PNL" combines a Balance Sheet and an Income Statement in a single report. Rework localization in C++ on Win32 builds, fixing several crashes and speeding up file loading by 10x. Create a console window for displaying stdout/stderr. Define __MSWIN_CONSOLE__ and recompile to enable. Keep the selection in the Securities Editor on the commodity after editing it. Allow the Securities Editor to stack separately from the main window. Much more Scheme cleanup and refactoring. Python console improvements, including switching to Python3 and not killing GnuCash when quitting the console. New API: The following functions can now be used in scheduled transaction credit/debit calculations: gnc:amort_pmt gnc:amort_ppmt gnc:amort_ipmt API Deprecations: gnc:html-table-prepend-column! gnc:html-acct-table-num-cols gnc:html-acct-table-append-row! gnc:html-acct-table-prepend-row! gnc:html-acct-table-append-col! gnc:html-acct-table-prepend-col! gnc:html-acct-table-remove-last-row! gnc:html-acct-table-render gnc:second-html-build-acct-table Updated Translations: Croatian, Farsi, German, Romanian, and Ukrainian Known Issues: Bug 787813 - Regression: Price database should allow multiple buy/sell prices on the same date Bug 791825 - Accounting Period dates (among others) stored with a TZ-sensitive time.

Note for Windows and MacOS users: The Gtk GUI framework has fixed several substantial bugs in the Windows and MacOS backends, some of which are so recent that they are not included in the latest release. In order to ensure that the GnuCash all-in-one bundles have those important fixes we are departing from normal practice and shipping builds from the Gtk repository instead of from release tarballs. The following bugs have been fixed: Bug 639049 - Asset Barchart Report includes also the first day of next month transactions If the original date is an end-of-month date, we take it as an indicator they always want monthdelta dates to be end-of-months. This works for monthly/quarterly/halfyearly/annual. Bug 748431 - Wrong average balance for transactions during DST Replace average-splits with custom loop, cycling through the balancelist and splitlist, creating interval summaries along the way.

Bug 796829 - Report HTML - HTML table rows are prepended not as list elements Bug 796831 - Report-HTML - append table column correctly. Bug 796877 - test-stress-options fails. Bug 796946 - Mortgage and Loan Repayment Setup tool crashes when exiting "Loan Repayment Options" page.

Bug 797031 - Import customer & Vendors: import can create customer and vendors without address data Bug 797041 - enum confusion in qoflog. Bug 797046 - Tools / Price Database / Currencies UI not working since 3.4. Bug 797067 - Date displayed incorrectly in register. Bug 797074 - Reports with averages are displaying fractions Convert amounts to decimal prior to adding to html-table. Also adds tests to make sure averages are displayed in 2 decimal places. Bug 797098 - Quitting Gnucash shortly after clicking Save may abort file save. Bug 797105 - Incorrect local-symbol for SZL currency Bug 797136 - Balance sheet report "Show Exchange rate" broken when foreign currency is sold completely For cases where total(amount)/total(value) = 0/0, the price is reported as 0. Other repairs or enhancements not marked as bugs: API: Add dedicated api to query build-time, version related compile constants and use it in several location in the code for consistent behaviour. Budget: Save and restore the Account filter settings. Build: Fix deprecation warnings for g_type_class_add_private. CSV Tokenizer: Add additional test to guard against quote parsing regressions. GUI: Replace ambiguous mnemonic for File>Export>Export Active Register... GUI: Rearrange menu accelerators for Actions>Online Actions menu items GUI: Add mnemonic for File>Import>Import Bills... GUI: Move Balance-Forecast report to Reports>Assets & Liabilities GUI: Move Void Transactions item in Report Options from the Accounts tab to the Filter tab. I18N: Fix erratic localization of dates on Windows. Date format selection on Windows relies on Windows National Language functions and those are unaffected by the POSIX setlocale(). We have in the past relied upon gtk initialization to handle this but it has not been reliable since the move to Gtk3. Note that this applies only when the locale is set via a Unix-style environment variable (typically LANG) or in the environment file; it's unnecessary and ignored when using the localization settings in Region & Language. I18N: Unify phrases to remove untranslated msgids. I18N: Restore the global locale after Guile munges it. There's no way to change the environment locale on Windows so calling setlocale(LC_ALL, ""), as guile does in its init routine, reads the user's Language and Region settings instead of the environment variables. We save the discovered environment locale and call setlocale with it again after Guile has initialized. Importing: Remove old (non-SEPA) online transaction code, because now in 2019 the banks will only offer SEPA transactions and no others. This in turn means we don't need the old ktoblzcheck checking functions at all so also remove the dependency. Importing: Usability improvements for Bayes editor window Remove the "Are you sure" question as it is simply annoying but does not help. Fix some string wordings to be more understandable. Online Banking: No longer force existence of local BIC code. Online Banking: Entering of TAN must use normal visibility The visibility of the entered content was set to FALSE (=invisible) always, which was wrong for certain types of input as indicated by the GUI_INPUT_FLAGS. This should now be honored and visibility set to TRUE (=visible) for the correct flags. Online Banking: Fix reconcile timestamps when importing balances. Used to be start-of-day, but needs to be day-neutral. Performance: Provide a single static instance of C++ locale. We can't use std::locale::global because all streams imbue it by default and if it's not 'C' (aka std::locale::classic) then we must imbue all the streams that we don't want localized, and that's most of them. Performance: Add GncDateTime::timestamp(). To provide a C++ implementation of gnc_date_timestamp and to avoid using the expensive and localized GncDateTime::format(). Performance: Implement a faster date-time serialization function. Has the side effect of recording all date-times in XML files in UTC instead of local time with a timezone. This will help users who like to keep their files under version control because the time strings won't shift every time Daylight time begins or ends. Performance: >Fix XML load CPU hotspot: Scrub.c xaccTransScrubPostedDate The refactoring provides roughly 10% reduction in user CPU use for XML file load by moving an expensive function to within an if-clause where the result is used. Performance: Speed-up of txn match dialog: Suspend GUI refresh during deletion of selected lines. Performance: Sorting speed-up: Cache the bool value of Transaction's is_closing property. Register: Accept URLs or file paths for files associated with transactions. File paths can be relative or absolute. A preference is provided. Reports: Speed up the budget and cash flow report calculation by iterating over accounts only once. Reports: Heavy scrubbing for code readability and performance. Reports: New Report by Ryan Turner: Balance Forecast Report This report forecasts the combined balances of the selected accounts based on the scheduled transactions and plots them on a line graph. You can set a "reserve" amount, which will draw a red line on the graph, so you can easily see if your forecast dips below a given value. There is also a "future minimum" line which shows what the lowest future balance will be at a given point. I find this useful in conjunction with the "target" line for planning. Reports: Fix crash when loading saved-report with unknown choices. If a saved-report with e.g. relative date, multichoice option is unknown, the report would crash, and the Report-Options would segfault. This commit fixes both: report-date defaults to 'today', multichoice-options defaults to default-value. Following this commit, if a report loads a saved-report or .gcm from a future version, a gnc:warn will be emitted and the report will not crash; it will use relative-date today. Multichoice will remain the default value. Report Options will not segfault. The user will be notified via a gnc:gui-warn dialog Reports: Date intervals at end-of-month: Instead of recursing the date, we calculate the next month using an index-based multiplier, and apply modulo/remainder as appropriate to determine the next month/year. Then we attempt to create new mktime, and if the resulting mktime's month is not as expected, reduce the mday by 1 until resulting month is correct. This fixes monthly intervals for end-of-month days. Test via monthly/quarterly deltas, and also includes leapyear calculation. Reports: Date-grouping must allow indenting. Indenting checkbox was erroneously disabled when: sortkey = date, date-subtotal = not 'none. Reports: Table display It is intuitive that if the user wishes to show the subtotal-table, and hide the transactions, then both the main (hidden) transactions and subtotals must be hidden as well. Reports: Update US Income Tax information for 2018.

Scheme: Replace account and split utility functions with SRFI-1 functions. Scheme: Testing (create-transaction) adds price trading commodities/currency this will modify a test which was calibrated to record purchase price only. fix transaction creation to add prices for both purchase and sales, and also fix test which was assuming no sale price was bring recorded. Scheme: Testing (env-create-multisplit-transaction) This is the general case for any transaction creation. Rewrite other transaction creation routines to use it. All tests still work unchanged, which confirms this function works well. This will allow tests to create multisplit transactions, of an arbitrary number of splits. If the list-of-split's values are not balanced (i.e. total 0), the engine will create an Imbalance-CUR split. The motivation is to allow creation of complex multisplit multicommodity transactions eg USD50 + GBP20 (USD25) = EUR66 (USD75) as well as their prices GBP/USD = 25/20 and EUR/USD = 75/66. * USD -50 * USD -25 = GBP -20 * USD +75 = EUR +66 This will be useful in creating tests for stock-based reports, whereby stock sales need splits in STOCK/ASSET/INCOME accounts. Scheme: Redesign gnc:account-get-balances-at-dates, replacing the ignore-closing? parameter with a split->amount function parameter having a default value of xaccSplitgetAmount. (split->amount split) should return the amount of the split or #f; in the latter case the split is skipped. This allows for a more general account balance list accumulator with novel balance strategies. For example a split->amount function could test void status and return xaccSplitVoidForerAmount on void splits; test description/memo for some content and vary the returned amount accoridingly; or test the split and return 1 or 0 creating a counter. To recreate the ignore-closing use case pass (lambda (s) (and not (xaccTransGetIsClosingTxn (xaccSplitGetParent s))) (xaccSplitGetAcmount s))) Scheme: Replace some option names. Automatically convert usage of the old names and issue a warning.

Bug 796967 - gnclock table not removed when using PostgreSQL. Bug 796978 - Deleting a split of same account as register cancels the transaction without warning Bug 796981 - Gnucash crashes with critical error when selecting another file Bug 796982 - Import Bills & Invoices: change in un_escape() routine causes description and notes fields to be mangled. Bug 796988 - Untranslated string in CSV transaction importer Bug 796989 - some date/time does not honor user locale Bug 796994 - Unable to generate Tax Report because of pricedb error Other repairs or enhancements not marked as bugs: Set up filepath utils to determine the GNC_CONFIG_HOME in the same way as GNC_DATA_HOME Until now GNC_CONFIG_HOME was more or less hard-coded. Now it can be set via environment variable GNC_CONFIG_HOME. In addition it will automatically be created to avoid potential user confusion. Redesign gnc-uri-utils gnc_uri_get_components will now return NULL as protocol if the input is a normal file system path instead of a uri (it used to return 'file') gnc_uri_get_protocol will now return NULL if the input is a normal file system path instead of a uri (it used to return 'file') gnc_uri_is_file_protocol now returns FALSE if protocol is NULL (it used to return TRUE) gnc_uri_is_file_uri now returns FALSE if input is a normal file system path instead of a uri (it used to return TRUE) a new function gnc_uri_targets_local_fs will return TRUE only if its input is either a file uri or a normal file system path. This function is now mostly used instead of gnc_uri_is_file_uri in the current code base a new function gnc_uri_is_uri is added to check whether its input is a valid uri (has protocol, path and hostname for non-file uris) refer to 'scheme' instead of 'protocol' as that's the more formal term used in uris This involves renaming 3 functions: gnc_uri_get_protocol -> gnc_uri_get_scheme gnc_uri_is_known_protocol -> gnc_uri_is_known_scheme gnc_uri_is_file_protocol -> gnc_uri_is_file_scheme The *_protocol variants are marked as deprecated. Additionally a number of local variables have been renamed from protocol to scheme to support this change. Show warnings for deprecated declarations We're about to announce our own set of deprecated functions in libgnucash. That would be pretty pointless if we also would silence all deprecation warnings at the same time... More report code-cleanup by Chris Lam, including deprecating the following functions: gnc:account-get-balance-at-date gnc:account-get-total-flow gnc-commodity-numeric-string gnc-commodity-value->string gnc:double-col gnc:options-add-include-subaccounts gnc:options-add-group-accounts gnc:options-add-currency-selection The following modules are deprecated: report-system/collectors report-system/report-collectors Invoice: Remove H1 title and superflous option. Printing the title twice is silly, so remove the option and the H1 display of the title. Note that the remaining title is in a div named "invoice-title" so it can be styled with CSS as the user pleases from the Report Options Layout tab. The preference, use formal accounting labels does not update the header With a register open and you change preference 'use formal accounting labels' it does not update the register header so add a call back for the preference. Make the grid lines of totals Budget tree view track the preferences Make the grid lines of the totals tree view track the preferences to match the account tree view above it. Add routine to fix Account Color being set to "Not Set" Previously the account color slot has been populated with "Not Set" when any field for the account has been edited and saved. This routine should run once and remove all such entries. Performance fix in dom_chars_handler: use g_strndup instead of g_strdup In the appdata/metadata file, rename the ID from org.gnucash.Gnucash to org.gnucash.GnuCash to match flathub, and add a launchable ID to link it to the desktop file. Added double-click-on-file for the CSV transaction, price, and account importers and exporters. Cleaned up a variety of issues reported by the clang static analyzer. Allow the text options widget to use all remaining space The text option widget used for report options has only about 3 lines visible currently and will not use any available space in the dialogue. Change the packing for this widget to expand and fill the remaining dialogue space. If there are more than one text option widget on a page then the available space will be shared equally. Add short_labels for a few toolbar buttons with long names. That should fit a few more buttons on the toolbar. Update iso-4217-currencies.xml, adddding VES - Bolivar Soberano, minor updates of other VE currencies. Python 3 bindings fixes and improvements from Christoph Holterman and Sumit Bhardwaj.

Bug 796858 - TypeError: in method 'qof_query_int32_predicate', argument 2 of type 'gint32' on gnucash.gnucash_core.QueryInt32Predicate. Other repairs or enhancements not marked as bugs: Set toolbar buttons to show both icon and text. And make the icon small to recover some vertical screen estate. The motivation for this is that Gtk has dropped the ability for users to change a toolbar's appearance. And as our icons are often less than descriptive many users benefit from having textual descriptions as well. This is the best compromise we can make until the gui gets an in-depth redesign. Add preference for forcing prices to decimal display. Anticipating that some users might prefer to see exact prices, add a preference to General>Numbers to configure whether prices are rounded to decimals or are displayed as exact fractions. Revert the "Average Cost" pricing changes made in 2.6.17. These changes broke trial balances in many books. Allow saving to xml over an existing sqlite3 file and the other way around. Add customer/vendor ID in client section of invoices. Partly fixes bugs 430259 and 742086; full fixes would require not-backward-compatible data model changes. Change the default filter for General Ledger. The General Ledger default for the number of days shown is 30 but for the Register it is 0, meaning show all. So change the default filter based on ledger type and use this when determining if the setting should be saved or removed. Fix gtk accelerator mixups by explicitly disabling actions that are not relevant. For example, File->Print and its variants for various page types all use the same 'p' as global accelerator. It was possible to have gnucash invoke the 'Print Report...' action instead of the 'Print Invoice...' action when hitting p on an invoice page. If no report page was open at this point, gnucash would crash. If a report was open, gnucash would invoke the print action on that report instead of opening an invoice report for the invoice. [job-report] Prevent Crash if there is no AR account Add the ability to cascade account colours in account tree. The colour on an account that has sub-accounts can be applied to its sub-accounts; by default only those sub-accounts that don't have a colour set are affected, but there's a preference to override that. Speed up loading the preference dialog by blocking register updates until the dialog is fully loaded. Update change_tax_code.py, add basic test for python query. Simplify GNCQueryView's data model: It was managing a number of redudant parameters which were leaking memory all over the place. The information that was tracked could easily be extracted from the underlying GtkTreeView, GtkTreeModel or GtkTreeSelection when needed. Open customer/vendor/employee report when double-clicking an the respective owner the cust/vend/empl overview page. Update Overview of README based on https://lists.gnucash.org/pipermail/gnucash-devel/2018-September/042748.html Many new tests for reports. Some substantial speedups when loading large amounts of business transactions from a SQL backend. Clean up a lot of memory leaks. Remove all use of Timespec in the program. Provide deprecated wrapper functions supporting timespecs for custom reports; users should update the reports as soonas possible. Updated Translations: Farsi, Ukrainian 3.2 - 25 June 2018 The third release of the 3.x stable series. The following bugs have been fixed: Bug 787401 - Test Report System - Report Definition. Bug 794617 - Can't compile with -DWITH_GNUCASH=NO due to scm-gnome-utils. Bug 795101 - Scroll Bar in Reconcile Window Floats in and covers the check boxes. Bug 795247 - datepicker broken in Persian. GnuCash passes dates as integer y/m/d without using locale-specific formats, so we need to strip out 'E' and 'O' from the format when scanning dates or determining separators in gnc-date. None of '-', 'E', or 'O' are supported by boost (and '-' causes errors), so strip them out from formatters in gnc-datetime as well. Bug 795253 - Have problems input Chinese. Bug 795272 - QIF importer causes application crash if action is invalid. Bug 795276 - Invalid date on price stops file from being parsed. Bug 795362 - Special variable "i" not parsed in function calls. Due to balance tests with insane random values. Bug 795471 - Impossible to Edit Budget Unless Maximized. Bug 795519 - Credit card payment after reconciliation. Bug 795666 - Backslash '\' in Description field spoils CSV Import without helpful error message. Bug 795831 - When read only threshold set, dates are silently changed. Display a message box informing the user of the change. Bug 795944 - Cannot store change to Business Suppliers data. Bug 796079 - Repeatable Crash in Tax Report Options. Bug 796081 - Tax Schedule Report - An error occurred while running the report. Bug 796083 - Reconcile Selection Doesn't Work Anymore. Bug 796117 - Connecting 3.1 to an existing mysql db drops all data Provide a backup recovery function that instead of dropping primaries and restoring backups merges the primaries and backups. This should handle a worst-case safe-save failure where the backup tables don't have a complete set of rows for some reason. Bug 796256 - Main Window stays hidden when starting after closing main window while minimized. Bug 796369 - Notes lost or perhaps just not displaying when using SQLite backend. This bug caused data loss if you saved your SQLite3 database to a different file or database. The problem is that in SQLite3 (though not in MySQL or PgSQL) the subquery ((SELECT DISTINCT guid FROM transactions)) (note the double parentheses) returns only the first guid in the subquery's results. Some transactions are loaded by special queries and those queries are also used to retrieve the transaction's slots so they weren't affected. Bug 796398 - Restrict accelerator keys to valid date range. Bug 796409 - Incorrect Current Value for Stocks. Missed calculating the value in the register summary bar. Bug 796423 - Cannot Input Chinese, seems does not work with other IME too. Toggles not in view with all rows selected weren't being redrawn. Bug 796484 - csv import: iostream error Unfortunately it turns out that we can't use filestreams because they can't take path arguments containing Unicode on Windows. Bug 796527 - invalid currency on scheduled transactions. * Don't even check for price/exchange rate on template transactions, there's no point. * Check all split commodities are valid, abort transaction creation if not. * If the template transaction's currency isn't used by any of the splits set the new transaction's currency to the first-found currency if there is one, otherwise to the first-found commodity. Bug 796537 - Transaction Report cannot sort by "num". Bug 796586 - QIF import incorrectly converts unicode characters from UTF8 encoded file. Bug 796595 - QIF Import Select Account button to add a new account is labled gnc-account-new but should be New. Bug 796600 - stock split cash-in-lieu income/asset labels backwards. Bug 796614 - Reconciliation report contains incorrect transactions. Bug 796638 - configuration not properly saved for CSV transactions import form. Other repairs or enhancements not marked as bugs: Transaction report improvements: * Performance: Do all filtering ops before sorting. * Move the options summary before the subtotals table. * New unit tests * Enable computing averages in subtotal grid. * Generate the subtotal grid only if the primary sort key enables subtotals. * Fix subtotal grid to support multiple commodities. * New filters. * Much cleaning and refactoring of the internals. Cache the num-split-action book option to avoid thousands of KVP queries for the same value when loading a register. Create a static string for book option KVPs to save an extra malloc/free on old compilers without small-string optimization. Add tooltip support for register cells. New unit tests for the balance sheet report and invoices. Consolidate charting code into a single module. Removed an incomplete and abandoned C implementation of QIF import. Restored libsecret support that had been left out of CMake. Replace old-style html style attributes with css. Modify emitted html to be parseable by the Guile SXML module for testing. Remove support for long-gone gtkhtml renderer. Clean up code generating html tables. Ensure full precision of doubles is saved to SQL. std::iostream's operator<<(double) uses only 6 digits of precision by default. Make float database operations more consistent, working around dbd-sqlite3's failure to support doubles (dbd-sqlite3, not sqlite3 itself). Prevent crash in gnc-tree-view.c: When getting information from the state file, protect against the key not having a '_' which is used to split the string. Add the full account name to the saved register settings If you need to delete the layout for a register in the settings file, the only thing identifying it is the account guid. To make it easier for humans, add the full account name also. When register pages are restored it uses the full account name. When register pages are restored, the account is found from the full name so if the separator changes it will fail. Instead, also save the account guid and use that as default to find the account falling back to the full name. Fix misplaced try block that caused unhandled exception if year out of range. Fix permanent storage of vendor details: Since the data types did not match for the billterms and taxtable, those references/guids were not saved to the database. Update invoice reports to use totals calculate by gncInvoice. This should give a consistent representation of invoice data across the application. Ensure gncEntry rounding is consistent. Internally calculated values in the entry are never rounded. Consumers of gncEntry's calculated values can request them either rounded or not. Next use a pragmatical approach for calculating values on invoices based on the entry values: do the rounding such that we never create an unbalanced transaction while posting. That means: * round each entry's net value before summing them in net total * accumulate all tax totals on invoice level per tax account before rounding and round before before summing them in a global tax total Hopefully this will catch a few more rounding issues in this area. A complete solution can only offered if we allow users to manually correct tax entries. This requires changes to user interface and data format so that's not going to happen in gnucash 3.x. Use Scheme SRFI-64 test framework for new Scheme unit tests. New compilers (gcc-8.0 and Xcode 9) bring new warnings, so several fixups to mollify them. Lowercase all cmake commands for better readability. Metadate migration (2.6.x->3.x) fixes for Windows. Ensure timezone is set correctly in FreeBSD. Updated Translations: Dutch 3.1 - 29 April 2018 The second release of the 3.x stable series. The following bugs have been fixed: Bug 118391 - Long currency names untranslated Bug 769686 - Notes not imported when using update and reconcile in import transactions from CSV Bug 772776 - VERY large queries (over 11000 fields in IN clause) slow down GnuCash Bug 782144 - git-master - Save Corrupts Data File / Not Open Data File Bug 792105 - Startup takes several minutes Bug 793461 - Transaction matcher window blank when importing QFX Bug 794767 - Dates default to 01/01/1970 Bug 794916 - Fails to find environment file at startup when installation prefix is '/opt' Bug 794936 - 3.0 does not open previously saved sqlite3 files properly - corrupted business data Bug 794941 - Both print icons export to pdf Bug 794953 - Ellipsize on short tab labels Correct error on when to ellipsize tab labels. Also as this is used in two places separate out this to new function so it is not duplicated. Bug 794990 - Double click does not work on saved reports When you double click on the saved report description nothing happens. This was down to a conflict on a couple of call backs and one of them was incorrectly setup. Bug 794994 - Display Alphavantage key in full Set the entry to expand so all the space is used to display. Bug 795031 - 3.0 Crashes on loading when opening 2.6.19 file Bug 795039 - Crash on startup using Technicolor Style sheet in report Bug 795040 - GnuCash crashes when searching for a newly created bill Bug 795049 - GnuCash 2.6.20-1 (Fedora Linux package) is unable to open MariaDB. Bug 795064 - Enable subtotal-only if either sortkeys are dates This will allow 'show subtotals only' if sortkeys are date-types. This allows, for example, prime-sortkey=date, yearly. sec-sortkey=date, monthly. Bug 795068 - src/optional/python-bindings missing several files Bug 795080 - Some dates reset to 01/01/1970 An odd corner case: BST apparently came off of DST at 23:00 26 Oct 2014, so midnight that day was ambiguous about being DST or not; that causes the local_date_time constructor to throw in spite of the tm.is_dst element being 0 (meaning pick standard time). Instead of just failing in that case, try constructing a local_date_time three hours later then adjust it back three hours. If *that* doesn't work then throw a std::invalid argument. Bug 795082 - CSV import crashes if a transaction's 'Account' field is empty and no default Account set Bug 795101 - Scrollbar floats and covers toggle buttons When the scrollbar appears for the reconcile windows it can float above the reconcile toggle button which make it difficult to toggle. Move this column to the start which has the advantage of aligning the amount column above the Total value. Bug 795142 - Unable to enter account codes in business sheets In Bills, Invoices and Expense vouchers you can not enter an account code in an account field like you can on a normal register, enable this. Bug 795155 - CSV import does not distinguish between deposit and withdrawal Bug 795347 - Australian (GMT+10) OFX transactions imported have previous days date Bug 795377 - Reads and saves Gnucash 2.6.19 XML file, then can't reread it, due to bad date in old file Bug 795389 - Hard to see figures in the budget window The budget view had hard coded black for normal values and dark grey for other values. Changed this so normal values are reset to default color and adjusted the grey based on default color for theme. Bug 795405 - All Dates in Price Database Off-By-One After 3.0 Upgrade Bug 795446 - On Windows there is a blank tip of the day When the tip_of_the_day.list is created a new line is appended to the list file and on Windows this causes a blank tip so remove the adding of the extra line. Bug 795471 - Budget window scrolls edited cell out of site When editing cells that have been revealed on the right by scrolling the window snaps back to the left hiding the cell being edited. This may be due to an underlying gtk issue but these changes fix the issue visually. Other repairs or enhancements not marked as bugs: On Windows the tooltip for saved reports was incorrect When the mouse was placed over a saved report description on Windows an empty tooltip was displayed. Setup the query tooltip callback so it does not display a tooltip for description column. Fix crash when loading sql book with posted transactions Add ability to recognize and use a pre-compiled libgmock.so. html-font: add default font family Windows ships with GTK2 in which the default font styles are named "Sans" "Sans Bold" "Sans Normal" etc. There is no "Sans" font in Windows; I vote to add a default "Sans-Serif" font-family which is valid CSS. This ensures exported reports are shown as intended. Several improvements to the Transaction and GST reports. csv-impport - Allow empty amount fields Treat empty amount fields as 0. This is necessary for example in the case the csv import file has both a deposit and a withdrawal column. Remove the set transient parent setting for Reconcile window The Reconcile option is already a window so it is not necessary to set this value which allows the jump to transaction to work properly. Date Format dialog flashes up when file/properties used When you select the File/Properties dialog, in the construction of that a 'Date Format' dialog flashes up while the date component is moved to the properties dialog. Can mainly be seen on Windows so remove the visible setting in glade file. Prevent throw in gnc-pricedb. If a price lookup is given an invalid time64/timespec (i.e. INT64_MAX) then just return NULL instead of trying to find the nearest price. Set GNC_VCS at build time instead of when making the tarball. Because the tarball is always made from a VCS repo. If there are no prices in the db, critical errors are flagged When dialog transfer is used between two commodities and there are no prices in the db a critical error is logged. Test for price object being NULL before retrieving the price for the error message. The following translations are updated: Slovak, Spanish Known Problems: It is not possible to overwrite SQL Databases from within GnuCash, even though GnuCash will ask if you want to. Bug 789594 Several dates, including Accounting Period, are subject to change with time zone and daylight-time changes. Bug 791825 Some HBCI information is not loaded correctly so the first transaction download will re-retrieve transactions unless the beginning date is set explicitly. Bug 792397. The new CSV importer's Price of Shares column doesn't work. Bug 793306 The new CSV importer's numeric parser can't parse numbers of the form x + y/z. Bug 793556. Python bindings may not work in some installations because the bindings are unable to find the backend modules (libgncmod-backend-dbi and libgncmod-backend-xml). Bug 794526 Get Quotes can be slow if one has a large number of saved prices. Bug 794644. The Mac localization code can set the wrong encoding for strftime causing the register's date picker to label months "Null" in some locales. Bug 794807 On Mac, the File Open dialog will crash if one types anything. (This is a Gtk+ bug). Bug 794809 An open register is not immediately updated when the Since Last Run dialog creates transaction splits in the register's account. Bug 794854 GnuCash asks if one wants to save changes when quitting or opening a file even if there's no book open. Bug 794870 Windows Defender falsly identifies the GnuCash installer as a Trojan. Bug 794967 Some Windows users have trouble using Chinese input methods on the Register; other controls work. Bug 795253 On Microsoft Windows the Tab key does not work in the register if the caps-lock key is on. Bug 795294 GnuCash will crash if one attempts to import a CSV file with more than 1400 transactions. Bug 795383 Invalid input into a formula (Debit/Credit) field is inconsistent depending on the input. Bug 795614. 3.0 - 1 April 2018 The first release of the 3.x stable series. New Features for Users: The headline item for this release is that GnuCash now uses the Gtk+-3.0 Toolkit and the WebKit2Gtk API. This change was forced on us by some major Linux distributions dropping support for the WebKit1 API. Unfortunately the Webkit project doesn't support Microsoft Windows so that platform will continue to use the WebKit1 API, though with Gtk3. We've selected Gtk+-3.14.0 as the minimum version because it fully supports CSS theming. New editors to remove outdated or incorrect match data from the import maps, a new user interfacs for managing files associated with transactions, an improved facility for removing old prices from the price database, and a way to remove deleted files from the history list in the file menu. New Reports: A Reconciliation Report based on the Transaction Report,a Income GST Report, and a Cashflow Barchart report. A new CSV importer largely rewritten in C++, adding new features including the ability to re-import CSV files exported from GnuCash, along with a separate CSV price importer. A new preference panel for the Alphavantage API key so that Finance::Quote users need not edit /etc/gnucash/environment. We've removed all references to the various Yahoo! quote sources and made Alphavantage the default. Data file directories are now located appropriately to the operating system's conventions by default: - Windows: CSIDL_APPDATA/Gnucash - OS X: $HOME/Application Support/Gnucash - Linux: $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/gnucash (or the default $HOME/.config/gnucash) It's still possible to overried with the environment variable GNC_DOC_PATH, which replaces GNC_DOT_DIR in earlier versions of GnuCash. Accounts in the Bayes import map are now linked by GUID instead of names so that the matcher won't have to be retrained if you rename an account. The Bayesian import maps are also stored in a flatter structure to allow faster access, especially in SQL. These changes mean that if you have Bayesian mapping data, once converted your database will be loadable only by GnuCash 2.6.20 and later. MySQL and SQLite3 date storage has changed a bit. Once converted, MySQL and SQLite3 database will be loadable only by GnuCash 2.6.19 and later. Numerics are rewritten to allow for more significant digits. The old 6-digit-maximum fraction is now 9-digits, and prices may have up to 18 digit precision. Chart Reports appearance is improved, including more modern chart colours as suggested by https://clrs.cc/. Transaction Report improvements, including regular expression filtering and many more options and features including a "Subtotal Summary Grid" The subtotal summary-grid will tabulate subtotals - prime-sortkey vertically, sec-sortkey horizontally. For example, with prime-sortkey = accounts, sec-sortkey = date, sec-subtotal = monthly will produce a monthly time series table. The About dialog box layout is improved and now includes the detected Finance::Quote version. GnuCash will always build the locale-specific tax modules. This was optional when building with autotools and never enabled when building with cmake. Note that the only supported tax locales are en_US and de_DE. On Macs the Reconcile Window's menu moved to the menubar. GnuCash no longer supports Guile-1.8 and now does support Guile-2.2 New Features for Developers: Several parts of the engine and the SQL backend are rewritten in C++, an effort that will continue in the next development cycle. KVP is now private to libgncmod-engine and accessible outside via qof_instance_set and qof_instance_get. KVP and GUID are reimplemnted in C++ using boost::variant and boost::UUID respectively. C++ unit tests require GoogleTest. While it's possible to use prebuilt libgtest and libgmock on some distros, building static libraries for GnuCash is preferred. It may be necessary to provide the paths to the googletest and googlemock source with CMake parameters GTEST_ROOT and GMOCK_ROOT respectively. The date implementation is migrated to boost::date-time, replacing a Glib GDateTime implementation. This makes the earliest date recordable 1 January 1400CE instead of 1 January 1CE. We doubt any users will be affected. Distribution tarballs can now be built with CMake as well as Autotools. (Rob Gowin) We've reorganized the code into a core library directory, libgnucash, and application-specific directory, gnucash. The python bindings are now in a top-level directory, bindings; code pinched from other projects is in borrowed, the account templates, check templates, and pixmaps are consolidated in data, and common holds the cmake modules and test framework code. The bin directory's contents have moved to the top level gnucash directory and bin is removed. There are now directories for gschema, gtkbuilder and ui files directly in gnucash. In principle all files of each type should go into these global directories. The only exception is if such a file belongs to an optional module. In that case the file remains located inside that module's directory. Currently we have ui, glade and gschema file exceptions in aqb and ofx importers. The build system is changed from Autotools to CMake. All options except python bindings and the python console demo are enabled by default. Highly parallel builds with Ninja are possible and recommended, except on Microsoft Windows. The Windows build system is rewritten to use MSYS2, Mingw-w64, Powershell, and jhbuild. Add a "pot" target to the build system so that translators can easily generate a new gnucash.pot from a git repository. Detect presence or absence of libxml2 and makeinfo during configuration; abort if the first is missing and don't build the (mostly obsolete) texinfo documentation if the latter is. Document both in README.dependencies. Replaced Timespec with time64 in the Scheme and Python bindings, introducing many new C time64 functions to accomodate the replacement. Timespec will eventually be removed from the C API as well. Some cruft removal in libgnucash/scm plus moving some code to its only use location. "main.scm" is renamed to "utilities.scm". The "printf" family of Scheme custom functions is replaced with the built-in "format" facility. Change a generally unnecessary warning about being unable to open a module (usually because the file is still being created) to a debug message. It appears mostly during highly parallel builds and was distracting. Appstream configuration is updated to the latest spec. Added two functions to the Scheme option API: * gnc:option-make-internal! will hide an existing option. e.g. a derived report can set the value for a Display/* option and hide it from the user. * gnc:unregister-option will unregister option. This is primarily useful for derived options e.g. another report copies from transaction.scm and removes some options and recreates them with different parameters. For example, unregister existing option from section "Accounts" name "Accounts", and recreate with different parameters e.g. limited account types. Drop intltool in favour or using modern gettext. By default we require gettext 0.19.6 as this is needed to generate a translated version of gnucash.desktop and gnucash.appdata.xml. For platforms where this isn't available, setting ALLOW_OLD_GETTEXT=ON will allow building but some strings will not be extracted to gnucash.pot Pass GTEST_ROOT and GMOCK_ROOT through to distcheck. So that they don't have to be exported in the environment if they're needed. The Python Bindings and Console are now for Python 3, and enahanced to expose more GnuCash API. Compilation of GLib Schemas during build and installation can be disabled by setting -DCOMPILE_GSCHEMAS=OFF. This is intended *only* for distribution packaging scripts that run glib-compile-schemas themselves. Otherwise note that if you install to a DESTDIR you'll need to re-run glib-compile-scemas after moving the contents of $DESTDIR$PREFIX/share/glib-2.0/schemas to $PREFIX. The CuteCash front end has been removed. The code we need from GOffice has been brought into the GnuCash code base so GOffice is no longer a dependency. The register drawing code has been upgraded to draw directly on a cairo surface, removing the dependency on libgnomecanvas. GnuCash 3.0 adds the following dependencies: Boost, ICU, Googletest. Known Problems: It is not possible to overwrite SQL Databases from within GnuCash, even though GnuCash will ask if you want to. Bug 789594 There is no theming tool for Windows or Macs so users of those platforms must apply theming by hand. Bug 791823 Accounting Period dates are subject to change with time zone and daylight-time changes. Bug 791825 Opening a large SQL database on Windows is very slow on some machines, merely slow on others. Bugs 792105, 794482. Some HBCI information is not loaded correctly so the first transaction download will re-retrieve transactions unless the beginning date is set explicitly. Bug 792397. The new CSV importer's Price of Shares column doesn't work. Bug 793306 Importing an OFX file on Windows fails with an empty matcher window. Bug 793461. The Bayes account matcher can take a long time to convert the accounts from name string to guids. This is a one-off, happening only the first time one imports into an account on GnuCash 3.0. Bug 794334. The new CSV importer's numeric parser can't parse numbers of the form x + y/z. Bug 793556. Python bindings may not work in some installations because the bindings are unable to find the backend modules (libgncmod-backend-dbi and libgncmod-backend-xml). Bug 794526 Get Quotes can be slow if one has a large number of saved prices. Bug 794644. Some users see 1 January 1970 instead of the default date in the New Invoice or New Bill dialog and on the unposted bill and invoice. Bug 794767. The Mac localization code can set the wrong encoding for strftime causing the register's date picker to label months "Null" in some locales. Bug 794807 On Mac, the File Open dialog will crash if one types anything. Bug 794809 An open register is not immediately updated when the Since Last Run dialog creates transaction splits in the register's account. Bug 794854 GnuCash asks if one wants to save changes when quitting or opening a file even if there's no book open. Bug 794870 The Online Actions menu includes some obsolete and non-functional selections. Bug 794880. 2.6.20 - 1 April 2018 This is the final release in the 2.6 stable series. The following bugs are fixed: Bug 765846 - Expense Over Time for subaccounts: An error occurred while running the report: Fix crash if acc-depth too low. Bug 791848 - GC 2.6.x does not handle ISO dates introduced with GC 2.7 Enable reading ISO-formatted dates, recognize GNC_FEATURE_SQLITE3_ISO_DATES. Bug 792008 - gnucash 2.6.19 fails to build Replace g_assert_true with g_assert for now Bug 793278 - wrong data in charts with accumulated values (like "net-linechart", "net-barchart" and "liabilities barchart") Bug 794030 - relative date functions compute wrong day of month Bug 790526 - Mathematical bug This change will fix 'num-of-weeks-since-1/jan/1970' which formerly used quotient to remove the fractional part of the division. For negative values of num-of-weeks, the number is truncated in the wrong direction (i.e. towards 0). This change uses floor instead to ensure the num-of-weeks found is the nearest integer LESS than the fractional number. Other repairs or enhancements not marked as bugs: Online HBCI actions: Remove outdated non-SEPA menu items. Add XML namespaces for all Account Hierarchy Templates. General cleanup of Account Hierarchy Templates. Fix auto-selection of splits in reconcile Really use all splits of any given day. Up to now usually the splits of the given date were not or not all included, as the time comparison didn't correctly ignore any given time-of-day of the splits. Instead, all possible time-of-days should be included. Properly detect git in case of linked worktree Account Hierarchy for India: Set LANGUAGE=hi and LANG=en_IN to access it. Improve Import menu entries Customer & vendors... use same menu label as others, replace template by tooltip, add ellipsis to entry, add comments to distinguish "Import" as verb and substantive. Provide preference panel to set the Alpha Vantage API key needed for Finance::Quote. Correct the appstream definition to match the current spec. Fix collectors and min-date handling in reports. Updated Translations: Dutch, German, Spanish, Russian 2.7.8 - 25 March 2018 The Gnucash Development Team is pleased to release Gnucash 2.7.8, the ninth release of an unstable series leading to Gnucash 3.0. This release is a Release Candidate: If no bugs requiring major work are reported the next release will be 3.0. This release changes file locations, binding APIs, report options, and can make your data file no longer compatible with previous versions. See https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/UpdateNotes for details. The following bugs are fixed only in unstable/master: Bug 787439 - Segmentation Fault in Transfer dialog after clearing Date field and pressing escape. Bug 794242 - Remove keep above setting for assistant hierarchy Other repairs not marked as bugs in git: When doing a file save from the a new start we have no key file Test for Key_file not being NULL before trying to free it. Stop critical error due to testing null filename g_filename_from_uri returns NULL if it is not a file uri so test for the file:// prefix before doing g_file_test More transient-parent fixes. Add missing response section to the account picker dialog. Glade 3.20 adds surplus padding option to action area When glade files are saved which have GtkAssistants defined a packing section is added to the assistant action area which then causes a warning so remove them. Add XML namespaces for all Account Hierarchy Templates. Increase default options dialog size: The old 400x400 was woefully inadequate for most options especially options involving account trees. Updated Translations: None. 2.7.7 - 18 March 2018 The Gnucash Development Team is pleased to release Gnucash 2.7.7, the eighth release of an unstable series leading to Gnucash 3.0. Notice that we've decided that beginning with the upcoming major release we will use two-digit release numbers and that the next stable release will be 3.0. Mainenance releases will be 3.1, 3.2, etc. The next unstable release will be 3.900 and will lead to 4.0. This release is UNSTABLE and SHOULD NOT BE USED in production. See the KNOWN PROBLEMS list at the bottom of the announcement. This release changes file locations, binding APIs, report options, and can make your data file no longer compatible with previous versions. See https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/UpdateNotes for details. New Features For Users: For Developers and Distro packagers: The Python Bindings and Console are now for Python 3. It's now possible to create a GncPrice from the Python bindings with "gnc_price_create(book)", removing the need to clone an existing GncPrice object and modify it. Compilation of GLib Schemas during build and installation can be disabled by setting -DCOMPILE_GSCHEMAS=OFF. This is intended *only* for distribution packaging scripts that run glib-compile-schemas themselves. The following bugs are fixed only in unstable/master: Bug 787439 - Segmentation Fault in Transfer dialog after clearing Date field and pressing escape. Bug 791831 - Add python3 support. Bug 794242 - Remove keep above setting for assistant hierarchy Other repairs not marked as bugs in git: Fix date corruption in SQL load. Four date elements were affected: GncEntry::date, GncEntry::date_entered, GncInvoice::opened, and GncInvoice::posted. This does not affect the stored values of the dates. Fix lost Bayesian matches in SQL backend. The import-map-bayes uses a three-part key that uses the same delimiter as a path and the SQL backend was throwing away everything except the account guid. More transient-window fixes and other Gtk3 cleanups. Add xmlns namespace declarations to all of the accounts templates that lacked it and remove the emacs mode-setting comments at the end of them. Updated Translations: Spanish 2.7.6 - 12 March 2018 The Gnucash Development Team is pleased to release Gnucash 2.7.6, the seventh release of an unstable series leading to Gnucash 3.0. Notice that we've decided that beginning with the upcoming major release we will use two-digit release numbers and that the next stable release will be 3.0. Mainenance releases will be 3.1, 3.2, etc. The next unstable release will be 3.900 and will lead to 4.0. This release is UNSTABLE and SHOULD NOT BE USED in production. See the KNOWN PROBLEMS list at the bottom of the announcement. This release changes file locations, binding APIs, report options, and can make your data file no longer compatible with previous versions. See https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/UpdateNotes for details. New Features For Users: Modernise chart colours from the dated CSS defaults to modern colours as suggested by https://clrs.cc/. Add "Subtotal Summary Grid" to the Transaction Report. The subtotal summary-grid will tabulate subtotals - prime-sortkey vertically, sec-sortkey horizontally. This will be useful, for example, with prime-sortkey = accounts, sec-sortkey = date, sec-subtotal = monthly... will produce a monthly time series spreadsheet. For Developers and Distro packagers: Rework source directory structure for gschema, gtkbuilder and ui files. There is now a directory for each respective file type directly in /gnucash as was already the case for gschema files. In principle all files of each type should go into these global directories. The only exception is if such a file belongs to an optional module. In that case the file remains located inside that module's directory. Currently we have ui, glade and gschema file exceptions in aqb and ofx importers. Drop intltool in favour or using modern gettext. By default we require gettext 0.19.6 as this is needed to generate a translated version of gnucash.desktop and gnucash.appdata.xml. For platforms where this isn't available, setting ALLOW_OLD_GETTEXT=ON will allow building but some strings will not be extracted to gnucash.pot Pass GTEST_ROOT and GMOCK_ROOT through to distcheck. So that they don't have to be exported in the environment if they're needed. The following bugs are fixed only in unstable/master: Bug 764245 - multi-column reports include incorrect sub-reports Bug 793460 - gnucash/import-export/csv-imp/assistant-csv-trans-import.cpp:1941 is impossible to translate. Bug 793467 - GnuCash crashes when trying to open a binary file instead of a CSV. Bug 793699 - start_spath could be used uninitialised. Bug 793900 - 2.7.5: test failure: 105 - python-bindings. Bug 793941 - 2.7.4: test failure on i686: 59 - test-gnc-timezone Don't test before 1916, that's not a common GnuCash use-case. Bug 793947 - Impossible to render printable invoice Bug 794031 - The checkbox "Placeholder" cann't be changed in dialog "Setup selected accounts". Enable placeholder toggle and provide callback. The text for this account tree view specifies "If you would like an account to be a placeholder account, click the checkbox for that account." but they were not enabled and no call back was defined so enabled the toggle button and provide callback. Bug 794083 - gnucash-2.7.5: cmake+make build installs Makefile. Bug 794137 - 2.7.5: test failure: 60 - test-gnc-numeric. Fixed by overloading operator<<(std::ostream&, GncNumeric) to call operator<<(std::wostream&, GncNumeric) and convert the result to utf8. Other repairs not marked as bugs in git: Csv imp settings - internalize prefix handling This information is not relevant outside of the settings code. The way it's implemented now each settings module defines its own unique prefix and the generic code can just use it when needed. Csv import - improve memory handling in the assistant class. Make it more RAII, in that whatever the class allocates, it should also deallocate. This simplifies a couple of memory handling cases. The only exception is the generic import matcher that for some reason has chosen to deallocate itself. To be fixed when more importers are converted to c++ Add some background info on memory management in CSV importers. As the assistant code combines multiple memory management models care should be taken not to mix them up. The notes should give some insights in how to do this. Also fix a few minor issues - delete default copy and move constructor/assignment for the assistant gui class - nullify a freed pointer Lots of transient parent warnings fixed. Fix Segmentation fault when going to File->New. When selecting the File->New with existing register pages open a crash can happen as the register pages get closed forcing a page-changed signal to queue the page focus function when there is no page. Add a call to remove the page focus function in the ..destroy_widget function. Also with the addition of g_idle_remove before the add when page-changed is emitted the page focus function only gets run once. Speed up GUID equality comparison. Fix CPack package version number. Currently running "ninja-build package" produces a file with an incorrect version number. This patch passes the CMake version variables into CPack to get the correct filename. Note, however, that there's more work to do to get CPack to actually be useful and the current CPack settings may be removed unless that other work is done. Add spacing between border and text in dialog "New Accounts Hierarchy Setup". With register obscured the sheet kept being redrawn When the register is obscured by another window, the sheet would get lot of draw events. This was tracked down to getting the foreground colour for the item-edit widget for the state GTK_STATE_FLAG_NORMAL. Changed this to use the value obtained from gtk_widget_get_state_flags. Use the gnc_prefs_get_bool values to update cache values. This way is a safer way to update the cache values in case the settings changed signal fails to trigger or there is a double trigger and the cached value gets out of sync with the preference value. Updated Translations: German, Norwegian, Spanish KNOWN PROBLEMS: Bug 789594 - Unable to overwrite splite3 database file Bug 791823 - There is no Gtk3 theme-setting tool for Windows. Bug 791825 - Accounting period dates off-by-1 2.7.5 - 25 February 2018 The Gnucash Development Team is pleased to release Gnucash 2.7.5, the sixth release of an unstable series leading to Gnucash 3.0. Notice that we've decided that beginning with the upcoming major release we will use two-digit release numbers and that the next stable release will be 3.0. Mainenance releases will be 3.1, 3.2, etc. The next unstable release will be 3.900 and will lead to 4.0. This release is UNSTABLE and SHOULD NOT BE USED in production. See the KNOWN PROBLEMS list at the bottom of the announcement. This release changes file locations, binding APIs, report options, and can make your data file no longer compatible with previous versions. See https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/UpdateNotes for details. New Features For Users: Locate all user data and configuration files to platform-dependent standard locations: - Windows: CSIDL_APPDATA/Gnucash - OS X: $HOME/Application Support/Gnucash - Linux: $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/gnucash (or the default $HOME/.config/gnucash) Further improvements to the Transaction and Income-GST-statement reports. Transaction Report: omit display of $0 in subtotals in other currencies. Previously in dual-subtotal columns, the dual-subtotal would attempt to print all commodities in the row. This meant if user chose common-currency thereby triggering additional commodities, the dual-subtotal would attempt to add amounts in other commodities which would be 0, and display the 0 amount. For Developers and Distro packagers: Some cruft removal in libgnucash/scm plus moving some code to its only use location. "main.scm" is renamed to "utilities.scm". The "printf" family of Scheme custom functions is replaced with the built-in "format" facility. Change a generally unnecessary warning about being unable to open a module (usually because the file is still being created) to a debug message. It appears mostly during highly parallel builds and was distracting. Added dependency information to all CMake targets, replacing a dependency on build order that was carried over from autotools. Highly parallel builds in ninja now complete without interuption. Ensure that all GtkBuilder and GtkUIManager files are correctly installed and that no configuration of build products in those directories are.. Appstream configuration is updated to the latest spec. Fix installation of a gnucash-only gschemas.compiled overwriting the system one. Note that if you install to a DESTDIR you'll need to re-run glib-compile-scemas after moving the contents of $DESTDIR$PREFIX/share/glib-2.0/schemas to $PREFIX. Added two functions to the Scheme option API: * gnc:option-make-internal! will hide an existing option. e.g. a derived report can set the value for a Display/* option and hide it from the user. * gnc:unregister-option will unregister option. This is primarily useful for derived options e.g. another report copies from transaction.scm and removes some options and recreates them with different parameters. For example, unregister existing option from section "Accounts" name "Accounts", and recreate with different parameters e.g. limited account types. The following bugs are fixed only in unstable/master: Bug 787095 - Gnucash Crashes when opening old XML file. Bug 792157 - Cannot create account with different currency Bug 792833 - User specifies source of 'num' field'; either transaction number or split action (requires at least GnuCash 2.5.0) Strip leading delimiters from KVP keys when reading them from the database. Leading delimiters are incorrectly included in databases created with GnuCash 2.6.x. Bug 792883 - cmake: no way to turn off -Werror Prepend settings to CMAKE_C_FLAGS and CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS so that values supplied on the command line can override the fixed settings. Bug 792884 - cmake: gschemas.compiled missing Bug 793122 - 2.7.3: ninja build fails. Bug 793155 - Gnucash 2.7.4 crashes on launch MacOS 10.13.4 PB1 Bug 793278 - wrong data in charts with accumulated values (like "net-linechart", "net-barchart" and "liabilities barchart") Bug 793568 - "Cash Flow" report crashes Other repairs not marked as bugs in git: An optimization in the GncDateTime string constructor provides substantial speed up of loading SQL databases, and one in Scheduled Transaction creation will speed up creation of large numbers of scheduled transactions. More dialogs have transient-for set so that they pop up over the window instead of in the upper left-hand corner of the monitor. Updated Translations: German, Greek, Slovak, Spanish A new set of business account templates for India's new GST; use locale en_IN to enable them. KNOWN PROBLEMS: Bug 789594 - Unable to overwrite splite3 database file Bug 791823 - There is no Gtk3 theme-setting tool for Windows. Bug 791825 - Accounting period dates off-by-1 2.7.3 - 31 December 2017 The Gnucash Development Team is pleased to release Gnucash 2.7.3, the fourth release of an unstable series leading to Gnucash 3.0. Notice that we've decided that beginning with the upcoming major release we will use two-digit release numbers and that the next stable release will be 3.0. Mainenance releases will be 3.1, 3.2, etc. The next unstable release will be 3.900 and will lead to 4.0. This release is UNSTABLE and SHOULD NOT BE USED in production. See the KNOWN PROBLEMS list at the bottom of the announcement. This release changes file locations, binding APIs, report options, and can make your data file no longer compatible with previous versions. See https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/UpdateNotes for details. New Features For Users: A greatly enhanced Transaction report with many new options and features including a reconciliation report thanks to Chris Lam. Removed 6-figure rounding from price calculations, allowing prices to have up to 18 digit precision. A flatter storage scheme for Bayes account-matching scores, thanks to Aaron Laws. This is a compatibility change guarded by a feature. GnuCash no longer supports Guile-1.8 and now does support Guile-2.2 A CSV Price importer, thanks to Bob Fewell. Enhanced python bindings exposing more GnuCash API thanks to Guy Taylor The following bugs are fixed only in unstable/master: Bug 616709 - Pressing delete key while editing account name offers to delete account. Bug 771667 - Change reconciled splits warning This patch displays two distinct warnings when changing protected fields of a transaction that contains reconciled splits. If the fields date, num and description are changed, then the warning list the accounts that have reconciled splits and also advises that they will be unreconciled after editing the transaction. If the fields account, transfer, debit or credit are changed then the warning advises that the split will be unreconciled after editing the transaction. There is still just one warning preference as it is all to do with fields protected by reconciliation. Bug 787497 - Disabling options cripples dist package PARTIAL FIX: WITH_OFX, WITH_SQL and WITH_AQBANKING handling is fixed. The dist files for these features are always included in the dist tarball. Bug 790526 - Mathematical bug Bug 791848 - GC 2.6.x does not handle ISO dates introduced with GC 2.7. Set a feature to prevent versions older that 2.6.20 from loading a database from which they cannot read the dates. Ideally we would do this only if the database is written to, but the current persistence design includes committing back to the database during the load so the net effect is that the flag would be set anyway. This is a compatibility change guarded by a feature. Other repairs not marked as bugs in git: Tests now pass in all timezones. More dialogs are made "transient for" so that they pop up centered on the main Gnucash window instead of somewhere on the left edge of the screen. A lot of Gtk3 issues and errors are fixed, thanks to Bob Fewell. Test struct tm* returns from gnc_gmtime and gnc_localtime to ensure that we don't crash for dereffing a nullptr. Removed the gnc:numeric type from Scheme code in favor of Scheme's own rational numbers. This allows direct conversion between Scheme numbers and gnc_numeric without the performance or accuracy penalties arising from using doubles as an intermediary. Pass KVP paths as a collection of elements instead of a delimited string. This allows keys to contain '/'. Thanks to Aaron Laws. Added a frameowrk for migrating preferences. Made separate functions for finding a widget's parent window: gnc_ui_get_gtk_window tries to find the immediate parent and gnc_ui_get_main_window tries to find the widget's parent toplevel, returning the first-mapped window. Make the splash/lock screen the transient parent for dialog boxes if the main window is not yet mapped. Rework directory determination in CMake builds. Sets paths for finding componenents depending on the state of ENABLE_BINRELOC, GNC_UNINSTALLED, GNC_BUILDDIR and whether any install paths have been set outside of CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX. GNUInstallDirs changes the name of CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR depending on the operating system and distro. When CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX is /usr, /usr/local, or any subdirectory of /opt it also changes CMAKE_INSTALL_FULL_SYSCONFDIR to /etc. An earlier commit by Aaron Laws mirrors the name of CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR to the build library directory. It's possible for builders to set any of the install directories anywhere they please. Setting any directory outside of CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX breaks Binreloc so the toplevel CMakeLists.txt now detects that and disables Binreloc. If Binreloc is enabled then all path queries use it to find paths. This works in the build directory because the gnucash executable and all of the test programs are in build_directory/bin and LIBDIR, DATADIR, and SYSCONFDIR can be found in the same root path. If Binreloc is disabled then in order to build or run programs from the build directory one must set GNC_UNINSTALLED and set GNC_BUILDDIR to the absolute path of the build directory. When those are set GNC_BUILDDIR replaces CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX in all paths that are subdirectories of CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX; paths that are not in CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX are appended whole to GNC_BUILDDIR. This process is constent between CMake and gnc_path_get_foo. GnuCash is unlikely to run from a DESTDIR without Binreloc. KNOWN PROBLEMS: On Microsoft Windows starting the AQBanking Setup Wizard crashes GnuCash. Bug 789594 - Unable to overwrite splite3 database file Bug 791823 - There is no Gtk3 theme-setting tool for Windows. Bug 791825 - Accounting period dates off-by-1 2.7.4 - 3 February 2018 The Gnucash Development Team is pleased to release Gnucash 2.7.4, the fifth release of an unstable series leading to Gnucash 3.0. Notice that we've decided that beginning with the upcoming major release we will use two-digit release numbers and that the next stable release will be 3.0.

See the KNOWN PROBLEMS list at the bottom of the announcement. This release changes file locations, binding APIs, report options, and can make your data file no longer compatible with previous versions. See https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/UpdateNotes for details. New Features For Users: A new preference panel for the Alphavantage API key so that Finance::Quote users need not edit /etc/gnucash/environment. On Macs the Reconcile Window's menu moved to the menubar. The detected Finance::Quote version is displayed in the About box. Removed all references to the various Yahoo! quote sources and made Alphavantage the default. For Developers and Distro packagers: The autotools build system has been removed. Add a "pot" target to the build system so that translators can easily generate a new gnucash.pot from a git repository. Improve handling of generated distributable files Fix make dist on a clean checkout cmake with unix makefiles fails to resolve dist dependencies added from COPY_FROM_BUILD if these dependencies aren't built yet. This commit replaces the COPY_FROM_BUILD based logic with two new functions 'dist_add_configured' and 'dist_add_generated' to indicate which files should be included in the dist tarball. The latter also adds a target level dependency to the dist tarball custom command. Hence the former should be used for files that get generated during a cmake run while the latter should be used for files generated as the result of a 'make/ninja-build' run (like files for which an add_custom_command rule exists). Note: this commit also temporarily disables the dist target when building from a tarball (and hence it won't be tested in distcheck either). This will be handled in a future commit. Add DL_LIBS to gncmod-gnome-utils target. Fixes a build problem in FreeBSD. Detect presence or absence of libxml2 and makeinfo during configuration; abort if the first is missing and don't build the (mostly obsolete) texinfo documentation if the latter is. Document both in README.dependencies. Replaced Timespec with time64 in the Scheme and Python bindings, introducing many new C time64 functions to accomodate the replacement. Timespec will eventually be removed from the C API as well. The following bugs are fixed only in unstable/master: Bug 787497 - Disabling OFX, AqBanking or python-bindings support cripples the dist build target Bug 790526 - Mathematical bug Actually about the number of weeks from/to 1 Jan 1970. Bug 790845 - 2.7.3: massive test failures on some architectures Bug 792106 - Wrong dates displayed Bug 792809 - Register text difficult to read with GTK 3.0 dark themes Add a foreground css class to override the theme value. Bug 792947 - Missing translatable strings Other repairs not marked as bugs in git: The long-standing known problem, AQBanking setup crashing on Windows. Webkit crashing the MacOS Gnucash.app. Some Guile 2.2 issues are resolved. Some bugs in the new Transaction Report. Correct setting of WebKit version during configuration when the version is cached. The change to the Average Cost calulation introduced in 2.6.12 is reverted. See the extensive discussion in Bug 775368 for mor information. Fix our appstream id as per the appstream recommendation Fix incorrect minimum dates in the net-linechart and net-barchart reports. Fix a report crash if the Account Depth is too low. Updated Translations: Dutch, German, Russian, Spanish, and Turkish. The translations from goffice for the small piece of it that we use have been copied into the corresponding gnucash translations.

Bug 789928 - FTBFS with libdbi 0.9.0-5 on Debian Bug 790620 - Failed to create file "/usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/gschemas.compiled.XY789Y". Other repairs not marked as bugs in git: Adapter for new flat KVP scheme for bayes import maps to be introduced in 2.8.0. A better way to handle MySQL's 0000-00-00 invalid date indicator. Fix python build and test errors on Mac. Don't try to unref a NULL GDateTime*. Add translator hint comments to C and glade files. Improve type of bank accounts in SKR03 Stop testing GObject's handling of invalid parameters Updated Translations: Dutch, German, Russian, Serbian 2.7.2 - 26 November 2017 The Gnucash Development Team is pleased to release Gnucash 2.7.2, the third release of an unstable series leading to Gnucash 2.8.0. This release is UNSTABLE and SHOULD NOT BE USED in production. See the KNOWN PROBLEMS list at the bottom of the announcement. This release changes file locations, binding APIs, report options, and can make your data file no longer compatible with previous versions. See https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/UpdateNotes for details. New Features For Users: No new features this time, but a raft of fixes and improvements! The following bugs are fixed only in unstable/master: Bug 734865 - Assign as Payment... can silently 'unpay' a payed invoice * if the selected transaction is already linked to an existing payment, the payment dialog will present this payment again (same partner, post-to account, same selected document(s), same amount, memo, and transfer account). * if the selected transaction is not linked to an existing business transaction the logic will make a best guess as to whether the payment should be for a customer or vendor. * in both situations if the existing transaction has multiple splits that can be considered as transfer (or 'payment') splits the payment dialog can't work with it (it can only deal with one transfer split). In this case the user will be informed that only one valid transfer split will be retained and the others ignored. * the other thing the payment dialog can't handle are APAR type splits that are not associated to a lot at all. In case of transactions not part of a business transaction they will be silently ignored on the assumptions these were manually entered transactions with the intention to be linked to business transactions. On the other hand if such a split is part of a transaction that is also linked to a business payment already, a warning will be issued these splits will be removed from the new payment. Bug 778692 - Assign as payment should work for employee expense vouchers * if gnucash can deduce a partner from the transaction that partner will be proposed this works for all transactions that are part of a business transaction already and will correctly detect pre-existing customer, vendor and employee payments * if no partner can be deduced gnucash will assume the transaction to be a vendor or customer payment based on the sign * in all cases the user can change the partner type in the payment window that's presented to any of customer, vendor or employee to correct gnucash' suggestion. Bug 784623 - GNUCash does not work with sql backend. Wherin the problem is that MySQL's TIMESTAMP has a date range of 1970-01-01 00:00:01 to 2038-01-19 03:14:07 and is unable to handle time_t of 0. MySQL's TIMESTAMP also assumes that input is in the server's timezone and adjusts it to UTC. GnuCash has already done that conversion. Bug 789608 - Compilation problems when linking libraries. Bug 789928 - FTBFS with libdbi 0.9.0-5 on Debian. This one required handling a new error condition. Bug 790550 - FTBFS: missing __init__.py Other repairs not marked as bugs in git: SQL parameter quoting is corrected in the backend so that only string parameters are quoted. This caused trouble when trying to store SQL NULL; the string 'NULL' is different from the value NULL. SQL table versions weren't set consistently and a bogus version test could cause some tables to be not loaded. Better, more targeted handling of MySQL's penchant for setting date-time fields to "0000-00-00 00:00:00" if it doesn't like the input. This should be much less common thanks to fixing Bug 784623. Major repairs to the "Dense Calendar" date selector. Fix colors on graph reports so that the selections work and the defaults are no longer transparent. Two large batches of styling fixes for Gtk3 from Bob Fewell. Fix the guile-compiled path in the environment file so that GnuCash can start on Windows. Convert the graphical reports to use GnuCash's rational numbers instead of doubles for better accuracy. KNOWN PROBLEMS: On Microsoft Windows starting the AQBanking Setup Wizard crashes GnuCash. test-import-bayes built with autotools intermittently fails at line 381, where the returned value is 1 instead of the expected 6. 2.7.1 - 29 October 2017 The Gnucash Development Team is pleased to release Gnucash 2.7.1, the second release of an unstable series leading to Gnucash 2.8.0. This release is UNSTABLE and SHOULD NOT BE USED in production. See the KNOWN PROBLEMS list at the bottom of the announcement. New Features For Users: A new Cashflow Barchart report from Jose Marino Transaction Report improvements, including regular expression filtering, from Chrostopher Lam. The About dialog box layout is improved. GnuCash will always build the locale-specific tax modules. This was optional when building with autotools and never enabled when building with cmake. Note that the only supported tax locales are en_US and de_DE. The following bugs are fixed only in unstable/master: Bug 789298 - Prompt for file history update leads to crash during startup. Other repairs not marked as bugs in git: GnuCash no longer crashes on startup on Windows. GnuCash no longer crashes when loading price data. The Options Dialogs will appear over the application window instead of wherever Gdk decides is coordinates 0, 0 on the display. Owners were not correctly linked to invoices in the SQL backend. Building from a tarball with python enabled now works. Fix Reconcile dialog always showing a 0 ending balance. Fix the book being always marked dirty at startup if it contained any scheduled transactions. KNOWN PROBLEMS: On Microsoft Windows starting the AQBanking Setup Wizard crashes GnuCash. test-import-bayes built with autotools intermittently fails at line 381, where the returned value is 1 instead of the expected 6. 2.7.0 - 17 October 2017 The Gnucash Development Team is pleased to release Gnucash 2.7.0, the first release of an unstable series leading to Gnucash 2.8.0. This release is UNSTABLE and SHOULD NOT BE USED in production. See the KNOWN PROBLEMS list at the bottom of the announcement. Note: Version information in the splash screen and About dialog will now reflect the date of the last commit used to build GnuCash rather than the date it was compiled. This is to assist quality assurance and debugging efforts by Linux distribution maintainers. New Features For Users: The headline item for this release is that GnuCash now uses the Gtk+-3.0 Toolkit and the WebKit2Gtk API. This change was forced on us by some major Linux distributions dropping support for the WebKit1 API. Unfortunately the Webkit project doesn't support Microsoft Windows so that platform will continue to use the WebKit1 API, though with Gtk3. We've selected Gtk+-3.14.0 as the minimum version because it fully supports CSS theming. (Geert Janssens and Robert Fewell) There's a new CSV importer largely rewritten in C++, adding new features including the ability to re-import CSV files exported from GnuCash. (Geert Janssens) Data file directories are now located appropriately to the operating system's conventions by default. It's still possible to overried with the environment variable GNC_DOC_PATH, which replaces GNC_DOT_DIR in earlier versions of GnuCash. (Geert Janssens) Accounts in the Bayes import map are now linked by GUID instead of names so that the matcher won't have to be retrained if you rename an account. THIS WILL MAKE YOUR FILE UNREADABLE BY PREVIOUS VERSIONS OF GNUCASH. There's a new editor to remove outdated or incorrect match data from the import maps, a new user interfacs for managing files associated with transactions, an improved facility for removing old prices from the price database, and a way to remove deleted files from the history list in the file menu. (All from Robert Fewell!) Numerics are rewritten to allow for more significant digits. The old 6-digit-maximum fraction will be a 9-digit maximum by 2.8. there is still some cleanup required before the limit can actually change. (John Ralls) New Income GST Report and some improvements to the Transaction report. (Christopher Lam) Chart Reports appearance is improved (Carsten Rinke) New Features For Developers Several parts of the engine and the SQL backend are rewritten in C++, an effort that will continue in the next development cycle. KVP is now private to libgncmod-engine and accessible outside via qof_instance_set and qof_instance_get. (John Ralls and Aaron Laws) KVP and GUID are reimplemnted in C++ using boost::variant and boost::UUID respectively (Aaron Laws). The date implementation is migrated to boost::date-time, replacing a Glib GDateTime implementation. This makes the earliest date recordable 1 January 1400CE instead of 1 January 1CE. We doubt any users will be affected. (John Ralls) Distribution tarballs can now be built with CMake as well as Autotools. (Rob Gowin) The CuteCash front end has been removed. The code we need from GOffice has been brought into the GnuCash code base so GOffice is no longer a dependency. Of interest mostly to developers, we've reorganized the code into a core library directory, libgnucash, and applications-specific directory, gnucash. A new Russian translation of the Guide has been started by Dmitriy Mandel. Downloads in the usual formats are available at https://code.gnucash.org/docs/ru/; the HTML is at https://code.gnucash.org/docs/ru/gnucash-guide/. There will be no unstable documentation release at this time. There have been very few relatively minor changes to the master documentation branch; those documents may be viewed in the nightly builds at https://www.gnucash.org/docs.phtml. The following bugs are fixed only in unstable/master: Bug 87652 - KVP modification does not change 'dirty' flag. Bug 120250 - KVP XML loader ignores '0' timestamps? Bug 122895 - general ledger should be named journal Bug 343227 - Summary bar alignment patch. Bug 388500 - Add option to remove deleted files from the history list. Allows removing files from the MRU list if they no longer exist. Bug 541541 - RFE: auto-hide unused accounts Bug 608098 - Option is hard to find: Change Transaction Report to show account names in multirow txn On the Transaction report the General->Style option has been replaced with a similar Display->Detail Level option. This was done in order to make the display of some columns dependent on the value of this option. When upgrading from 2.6.x or earlier to 2.8.x and you had saved or open reports that had set General->Style to 'Multi-line' you will have to update these reports to set 'Multi-line' on the Display->Detail Level option instead and optionally resave your report. Bug 639401 - Invoices Due Reminder Bug 645786 - Fancy invoice report still doesn't use fancy date format preference Bug 647230 - Display the blank split after the "now" line instead of at the end Bug 679791 - Import Template for importing CSV files - part2 Bug 684719 - Man pages for gnc-fq-* perl scripts Bug 689489 - Be able to show file location The file location is now visible in the status bar while hovering over the recent file list of the File menu. The currently open file is the top-most file in this list so its location can be seen by hovering over it with the mouse. Bug 695610 - GnuCash Tax Invoice for Australia Bug 706021 - Test match text for valid account path Bug 726535 - Budget BarChart Report - add option to change to a line chart Bug 728136 - Rate in Job Bug 729001 - Fix a minor typo affecting the profile option in the previous commit Bug 731589 - Add account level selection on accounts option tab Bug 733186 - [PATCH] Extend account tree view search function Bug 734168 - Tax invoice can be a bill too. Bug 737171 - After account creation wizard and saving, empty account window is shown Bug 738462 - CSV Transaction Import should be able to import CSV files generated by GnuCash export Bug 738477 - WebKit is broken on Win32. Bug 741810 - Compilation fails because of creating .gnucash Bug 747377 - Fix overly restrictive input validation for IBAN of SEPA transfer. Bug 752686 - Initialize temp GValues in xaccAccountGetReconcileLastInterval. Bug 754530 - Add CSV Export Simple Layout Bug 754533 - Add the option to do a CSV export of a Register view Bug 756373 - Typos in Transaction Rpt options mouse-over text Bug 757532 - [PATCH] Make start and end rows editable by keyboard Bug 759674 - GNUCash crashes when importing invoices or bills with delimited import Bug 760107 - Change default date completion to sliding window The default date completion when entering partial dates has been changed from "always complete in current calendar year" to "complete to a sliding window starting 11 months before current month". For example if you enter "1/23" (January 23rd) while today is December 10th 2015, the date will be expanded to January 23rd 2016 rather than 2015. If you prefer to keep the old behaviour, you can restore to it via Edit->Preferences->Date/Time->Date Completion. In addition if you were already using the sliding window before, but didn't change the previous 6 months before default, you will now also get the new default 11 months before. Again if you prefer the old behaviour it can be restored via the same Preference. Bug 764268 - MT940 import select account based on transaction info Bug 769115 - db name isn't escaped well Bug 769576 - Seg Fault on Editing Scheduled Transaction's Amount Bug 778042 - These are the script changes for jqplot reports.

Implement dist, distcheck, and uninstall targets for CMake build. Updated Translations: Farsi, German, Japanese, Latvian, Serbian, Spanish 2.6.17 - 2 July 2017 The following bugs are fixed: Bug 603379 - Prevent changing some Account Options if it has transactions Followup: Relax the account type change restrictions again. In the new implementation account types can'tz be changed for an account with splits: - if the change woud force a commodity change (to/from normal accounts from/to stock related accounts) - for immutable accounts At the time of this commit the following account types are considered immutable: - Accounts Receivable - Accounts Payable - Trading accounts Bug 776396 - Foreign currency reports, amounts are not aligned correctly Improve the styling of the table element used for foreign currencies in the Balance sheet report so they end up aligned with the other currencies. Bug 780845 - link in github repo README file needs correction/editing Bug 780889 - Split-register transactions result in invalid price:type "transaction": Add 'transaction' to the schema and document it in gnc-pricedb.h. Bug 781634 - Alert on missing account currency when opening account Also separate translatable commodity namespace strings from those used in storage: There is now a separate GNC_COMMODITY_NS_ISO_GUI label to be used everywhere the user needs to read 'Currency namespace'. It's currently set to 'Currencies' and can be translated. Bug 782274 - Transactions produced by Transfer Funds or Process Payment dialogs sort to beginning of day and do not honor NUM field for custom sorting. Bug 782897 - Stock Split Assistant crashes GnuCash if you enter a New Price and that already exists in the Price DB Bug 783095 - gnucash-2.6.16 segfaults on startup Bug 784317 - typo in 'import customers or vendors from text file' dialog Other repairs not marked as bugs in git: Properly define the template namespace rather than using a local string everywhere Correctly store time64 0 in the SQL backend: The SQL backend ignored time64 0 when saving dates. time64 is a perfectly valid timestamp (1970-01-01 00:00:00) and should be stored. Clamp time64 values passed to GDateTime functions to the valid range. Fixes a bug reported on the mailing list wherein a date of 0000-00-00 in a MySql database would crash GnuCash. Such dates may come from a bad conversion of 1970-01-01 or from a crash. Add XSU to iso-4217-currencies Some banks include additional purpose information for a transaction in non-swift-section 17 (aka transaction text). If available, this transaction text is put in front of the other purpose texts to provide full transaction information. Adds a preference to control import behaivour of transaction text.

Tell the user what happened with a dialog. Bug 773945 - Select Security Dialog Not User Friendly: Add a new namespace “ALL NON-CURRENCY” to the namespace (type) selector lists on the security picker and price editor which causes the commodity list to include all non-security commodities. Bug 776247 - PriceEditor thinks Currency XXX is an actual currency and tries to retrieve prices for it.

Please check this before printing your next check. Bug 766688 - Minimal fraction of BYN should be 1/100 Bug 766960 - gnucash-make-guids fails to run due to hardcoded paths. Bug 767824 - Some UTC timezones incorrectly recognized on Windows 7 Other repairs that weren't marked as bugs in git: The gnc_gui_refresh_all statement in gnc_book_options_dialog_apply_cb causes the 'apply' and 'OK' buttons to be set to sensitive on the open Book Options dialog in some circumstances; this commit causes them to be reset to insensitive, as they should be. Check printing: make logic easier to follow. Fix adjust_sql_option_string test on Windows. Don't try to compile test_adjust_sql_options on windows, it won't link. Fix the CMake build by linking gnc-backend-dbi for test-backend-dbi. Improved adjust_sql_options_string, added tests. Improve quickfill performance on huge registers. Mac Localization: Prefer the country to the language for fall-back locales. On the theory that in countries where multiple languages are in use similar date and number formats will apply regardless of language, and especially that the default currency will be the same regardless of language. Also ensure that the specified language is in the list passed to gettext; the net effect of which is that the user will effectively get the requested localization behavior. Update README to refer to wiki Submitting_Patches and regarding pull request policy.

Correctly re-value splits when the transaction currency is changed. Reset the transaction currency to match the currently open account when auto-completing. Refine the MacOS X localization when the system-generated POSIX locale isn't a supported locale: Prefer the country to language when selecting an alternate locale, but still pass the original language to gettext. Check printing: extract address from invoice/bill for payment transactions Robert Fewell has contributed changes needed to allow the 2.6 series to read files from future major versions which use GUIDs instead of names to identify matched accounts with the Bayesian import matcher.

Other repairs that weren't marked as bugs in git: Revert the automatic inversion of prices whose value is less than 1.0. This corrects several regressions from 2.6.8 and 2.6.9; it proved to be to big a change for a maintenance branch and will re-appear in the next major release. Fix test failure due to trying to parse nanoseconds, which we don't actually use. Use @SHELL@ instead of hardcode /bin/sh in test shell scripts. This is a workaround for MacOS X 10.11's System Integrity Protection. Improve the revert action: Ask user confirmation and don't ask to save before reverting Have a more generic mechanism to set Save action's sensitivity and use it for Revert action as well Avoid assert in gnc_split_register_balance_trans if default_account is null. Performance improvements in the Cash Flow report. Add new account chart for Duch small businesses. Add some developer documentation.

Bug 752879 - Finance::Quote TZ Date::Manip config variable is deprecated. Bug 753146 - free(): invalid pointer on duplicate transaction when Use Split Action Field for Number is set. Bug 754617 - Gnucash should use PKG_PROG_PKG_CONFIG Bug 754764 Budget Doxygen documentation - gnc-budget-view.c. Other repairs that weren't marked as bugs in git: Clean up deprecated Gtk functions to make eventual migration to Gtk3 easier. Improve storage of prices in the price db so that there is only one per day and a preference list determines what sources can overwrite existing prices. Prices are stored in the direction that the price is greater than one to preserve precision for large prices that would be small in the other direction. Correct the Stock, Bond, Market Index, and Mutual Fund account types to ASSET in the template accounts. STOCK and MUTUAL are not compatible with currency. Clean up some non-fatal asserts.

Updated Translations: Assamese Indic, Danish, German, Gujarati Indic, Italian, Kannada Indic, Konkani Latin, 2.6.4 - 28 September 2014 Between 2.6.3 and 2.6.4, the following bugfixes were accomplished: 120199 - Incorrect sort order in "Sort by Statement Date". 434462 - register color don't work correct with system theme color. 509263 - Since Last Run dialog won't allow resizing of Status column. 610202 - gnucash silently closes when no X11/$DISPLAY is present. 630638 - 'Process payment' should allow to select equity accounts for payment 671615 - French: 'New Customer' button in Find Customer dialog is translated to 'Nouvel onglet' 688965 - Page Up, Page Down keys cause GnuCash to hang. 692249 - Add Help button in Custom Reports dialog box, 695240 - mortgage wizard empty table. 707243 - Hard-coded font colors in account tree? 711440 - Tab labels have different background colour than containing gui element. 711567 - Cannot save a custom report if a path contain diacritic chars 719457 - Template for Home Mortgage Loan isn't properly nested. 719457 - Template for Home Mortgage Loan isn't properly nested. 720427 - Review of french account templates 720934 - Barcharts with many data points have overlapping x-axis labels. 722140 - Add option to control inclusion of trading accounts in cash flow report. 722200 - configure script does not pick the correct am_cv_scanf version. 723145 - Currency display does not respect locale. 723442 - Report Options - Report Name too short. 725054 - Re-numbering sub accounts crashes the program. 725366 - Formula Parsing Error with Scheduled Mortgage Transactions 726449 - Budget Barchart does not show up if running sum is selected. 726888 - cancel button is available on all pages of assistant. 727130 - Crash when newline in Report Title 727338 - Translation and Account file updates for Latvian. 728103 - Invoice opened does not contain the Job under circumstances. 728717 - Ubuntu 14.04 - GNUcash crashes on close. 728841 - XML backend does not always store KVP slots. 729157 - Bill Term discount days are allowed to be more than due days. 729497 - Saved Report Configuration selection window resize. 730255 - Python bindings: Assigns bill entries to non-existant invoice. 731519 - The fix sets the upper limit before it sets the value of the end row spin button. 733107 - Search for reconcile status doesn't work right. 733283 - [PATCH] Loss of fractions when importing OFX investment transactions. 733506 - (ForwadDisableQIF) The forward button is not active even though a file is selected. 734183 - Set all of the denominators correctly on the currency values. 736703 - Scheduled transaction are registered without credit/debit. 732545 - gnucash-2.6.3 segfaults when started. Some other fixes not associated with reported bugs were accomplished: Add business lot scrubbing to Check & Repair->All/This transaction(s). Add context to generic translatable string. This was suggested in Bug 671615 by Jérôme Rapinat. Add scrub function to reduce the amount of lot links used. Only lot links between two or more document lots must remain. All lot links between document and payment lots can be scrubbed. Add some date format checking and make sure generated dates are the correct user selected format, not always locale format. Allow the ability to skip rows when importing transactions. Always use the price we display to calculate the current value of an account. Better period totals formatting in Invoices. CSV Export: factor out function to generate regular expression. CSV Import transform macro into function. Convert ISO-8859-1 account chart templates to UTF-8. Correct txf output to use a minus sign, rather than parenthesis. Fix document type dispay for credit notes on owner report. Fix test-backend-dbi segfault with libdbi-0.9.0. Handle the case of scrubbing a lot link between two non-document lots. Make scrub in lot viewer scrub business lots using the new scrub functions. Move account type checking functions into the engine. Prevent older gnucash versions from opening a data file if previously unhandled kvps are used. Python bindings. Add function gncVendorNextID, complementary to gncCustomerNextID. Re-enable loading and saving gnucashdotdir/accelerator-home on OSX. Refactor OS-specific ifdef to reduce code duplication, which results in reduced risk on typos in either branch Refactor get_pay_split into gncOwnerFindOffsettingSplit. In this form it can be used both for scrubbing lot links and for adding new payments Refactor gncOwnerReduceSplitTo out of reduce_biggest_split. It can now be used both for scrubbing and when applying payments Refactor gnc_doc_doc_link into gncOwnerSetLotLinkMemo and move it. It can now be used both for scrubbing and when applying payments Refactor scrub_doc_pay_link into scrub_other_link and make it more generic. It can now be used both to: * move a payment to a document lot (its original use case) * move a refund to a payment lot or the other way around Relax requirements for booleans in invoice line, accepting 'y' as well as 'yes', 't' as well as 'true'. Replace C++ reserved words for future compatibility with C++. Rework assistant csv import regex code to eliminate the mandatory dummy field. Rewrite invoice payment logic to fix lot link proliferation. SQL: Save commodity namespace changes from template. Set default currency for French account chart templates. Tweak the get_pay_split function to prefer the best possible match. Use libsecret if available since gnome-keyring has been deprecated. Use more significant digits for SX function returns. Use same default setting for quotes in csv import and export. Widen the scope of the subsplit merge scrub function. When used in a strict sense it will only merge splits that are marked as subsplits of each other. In relaxed mode it will merge any split two splits that are both in the same lot and the same transaction. double_to_gnc_numeric: Return overflow error immediately on invalid input. Ensure that the root account is saved to the SQL backend.

GnuCash Users can experience the following new features: * Preferences have been migrated from GConf to GSettings. This is a simpler and more robust backend which writes to the OS's native prefs -- defaults on OS X and the Registry on MSWindows -- and allows us to remove several troublesome dependencies including GConf, ORBit, and DBus. The change includes a migration script that will run at Gnucash startup. * New date handling which allows GnuCash to use dates after March 2038. * Guile-2 compatibility: GnuCash now requires either Guile-1.8 or Guile-2.0 * Documents outside of GnuCash, images of receipts for example, can now be linked to transactions, with the facility of opening them in the default application for the document type. * Cutsom Reports can now be saved without renaming the report, and modifications can overwrite an existing report. * The import assistant now finishes much more quickly after assigning contra-accounts. * GnuCash now requires Gtk+-2.24.0 and GLib-2.26.0. Most of the dependencies on obsolete libraries have been removed; only libgnomecanvas remains. Unfortunately the effort to rewrite the register code to use GtkTreeModel wasn't completed in time, so GnuCash is not on the cusp of converting to Gtk3. * The Business Module has been substantially revamped, including support for Credit Notes and import of customers and vendors from a CSV file. * The Num field in the register display is now optionally per-split, so for example a check number can be entered for the checking account split and an invoice number for the expense account split. * GnuCash can now open locked books read-only so that more than one user can view a file. GnuCash still does not support multiple simultaneous writers. * By agreement of all authors, GnuCash is now licensed under the GNU General Public License Version 2 or later rather than simply Version 2. This allows derivative works to be licensed under the GPL Version 3 if the author of such a work so desires. * Fixed more than 500 bugs. For those keeping score, the following changes have occurred since 2.5.10: Bug Fixes: 157247 - Asset account's "total" value should use most recent transaction prices 710823 - libofx can supply broken UTF-8 for account id 710824 - GnuCash should sanitise UTF-8 before serialising files to avoid writing broken unparseable XML. 720555 - General Ledger - Can't Enter Transaction Amounts 720556 - The Tip of the Day preference isn't getting saved 720646 - New Book Tabs on Windows Other Changes: * Don't create a second account hierarchy page when cancelling the Hierarchy Assistant or when using Actions->New Account Hierarchy on an already open book. * Reset Warnings dialog: show translated warnings * The locale-names for Help and the Tutorial and Concepts Guide have been renamed to language-only so that, for example, someone using the Swiss-German locale will be shown help in German instead of English. Translations Updated: British, Dutch, French, Italian, Lithuanian. 2.5.10 - 15 December 2013 This is the eleventh and final release in the UNSTABLE 2.5 series. It is the second beta release. Barring any surprises, we will release a STABLE 2.6.0 on 29 December. Changes since the last release have been entirely bug fixes and translation updates, though not all bug fixes had associated bug reports. Note that WebKit 1.2 is now tested for in configure; it had been 1.0, but GnuCash wouldn't actually compile with versions earlier than 1.1.5. Bug Fixes: 336843 - Attach images/files/urls to transactions: Disable the "show attachment" menu item if the transaction has no attached file. 619478 - Build warning in html/gnc-html-webkit.c 627575 - Stylesheet names with non-alphanumeric characters and saved-reports 630578 - current date instead of posting date in exchange rate, when posting a bill 632588 - Scrub doesn't fix missing currency 639371 - Welcome Sample Report reports wrong version and has a broken report 653594 - wrong amount printed on checks 705714 - QIF Import - File selection pop-up is not on top during qif import 708526 - GnuCash Crashes when opening About page: Downgrade the error to a critical warning. 711317 - Indian Rupee Symbol appears as "?" marks 715123 - Post invoice problem, cannot unpost 719481 - GnuCash report crashes with Guile2 719521 - Missing radio button in "Edit security" dialog 719726 - Click on File -> Open seg-faults 720235 - Python bindings should load environment file just like gnucash does Fix Python tests to no longer require gsettings schemas installed. Fix the CuteCash (Qt GUI based) build Multi-currency "Post invoice" improvements Protect gnc_mktime against bad dates. Protect against null account pointers in a couple of place to avoid asserts. Qif Import Assistant: Don't disable the whole dialog, just the Forward button QifImport: Fix crash from attempting to import an empty file. Add the ability to search for transactions that are, or are not, book closing entries. Move customer, bill, and invoice importers form the business menu to the file menu. Rename some directories in src/import-export so that the gschema.xml.in.in files within them don't have pathnames that are too long for tar when the GnuCash version exceeds 5 digits (e.g., 2.5.10). Translation Updates: Italian, German, French New Translations: Arabic! 2.5.9 - 1 December 2013 This is the tenth release in the UNSTABLE 2.5 series. It is the first beta release. Barring any surprises, there will be one more beta release in two weeks, followed by the release of 2.6.0 on 29 December. Changes since the last release have principally been code cleanup, including KVP storage in the SQL Backend, Python testing in out-of-source builds, test failures when using Guile-2, ensure that saved state (especially KVP) is deleted along with the primary object, use the progress bar when loading the PriceDB. Translator note: We found it advisable to correct some typos and to add two translatable strings "Bill Information" and "Voucher Information". Bug Fixes: 644044 - Lots: SQL backend loses link to Gain/Loss Txn 704506 - Connection loss to mysql after resume from hibernation 707311 - Tax Invoice fails to open when using guile 2 710871 - Python site-packages not found when not installed to default location using --prefix 710905 - Column withs, visibility, order and sort order not saved and restored 711289 - time zone handling is inconsistent between 2.4 and 2.5 712299 - Tax Invoice with guile 2 doesn't display currency symbols 715041 - Crash opening a file when a file is already open. 715184 - Bill or Invoice; a new Bill gives a new Invoice 719471 - Unused commodities saved to XML file Translations updated: German, Italian 2.5.8 - 17 November 2013 This is the ninth release in the UNSTABLE 2.5 series. This release is the last alpha release. String and feature freeze are now in effect: Only bug fixes which have no effect on UI, API, or translatable strings should be committed to trunk until after the release of GnuCash 2.6, currently scheduled for 29 December 2013. Translators: Please use the tarballs from this release to prepare your translations. New contributor Patrick has provided a beginning implementation of linking attachments to transactions. This is accessed through the Transaction menu and the transaction context menu. In this initial version, linked files are displayed in the default viewer for the file type. E.g., html files will open in a browser and jpegs will open in the default picture viewer. Bug Fixes: 707311 - Tax Invoice fails to open when using guile 2 709589 - make check fails with guile 2 711289 - Time Zone Handling is Inconsistent between 2.4 and 2.5 Partial fix that may also correct 699997 711294 - Gnucash repeatedly ask associated income account when import qfx file. Patch by Kuang-che Wu 711493 - Fix unselected account that is NULL Translations Updated: German 2.5.7 - 3 November 2013 This is the eighth release in the UNSTABLE 2.5 series. Register2 is now a configure option. Default builds, including the Windows and Mac All-in-one packages, will use only the old register. We've decided that it isn't ready for general use and the principal author doesn't have time to make it ready in time for a 2.6 release. Frédéric Perrin has contributed a change to display currency symbols whenever they are known and unambiguous. Geert Janssens has cleaned up most of the issues from the initial GSettings preference changes. There's a new configure option, --with-xdg-data-dirs to overide the environment and defaults if necessary. Building Gnucash now requires Automake version 1.11 or later. Configure will abort if --enable-ofx is set but no libofx configuration files are found. Budget periods may no longer set to values greater than the budget's num_periods, and the budget options descriptions will wrap. Contributed by Robert Ratliff.

Geert Janssens has rewritten the preferences system to use GSettings from GIO (GLib) instead of GConf. This is a simpler and more robust backend which writes to the OS's native prefs -- defaults on OS X and the Registry on MSWindows -- and allows us to remove several troublesome dependencies including GConf, ORBit, and DBus. The change includes a migration script that will run at Gnucash startup. WARNING: the saved settings in gconf are not (yet) migrated to gsettings ! running gnucash as of this commit will start you with default values for all preferences ! You can of course change your preferences, your changes will be saved properly in gsettings and restored when you restart gnucash. But what has been set in GConf before will basically be ignored. Bug Fixes: Bug 632362 - Unable to create "reversing transaction" again after it is removed Bug 654196 - "make check" fails when built with --enable-dbi Bug 674862 - 2038 bug in libdbi Bug 682280 - bill/invoice importer fails to save imported bills/invoice Bug 684670 - Interest amount calculation is wrong in Sqlite3 format Bug 699450- New budgets cause Account Name column to expand until display bigger than screen. -- Robert Ratliff Bug 708700 - "make check" fails (missing glib bits)-- Frédéric Perrin Bug 704039 - time zone is not respected in Windows -- Thanks to Kuang-che Wu Translations Updated: Dutch 2.5.5 - 10 September 2013 This is the sixth release in the UNSTABLE 2.5 series. No new features are added in this release. Bug Fixes: 334939 - Account Report and Account Transaction Report are apparently the same, but different. Change menu entry for the single transaction Account Report from "Accout Transaction Report" to "Account Report - Single Transaction" Author: Carsten Rinke 603183 - Equity statement shows incorrect changes Add function gnc:account-get-total-flow to report-utilities.scm This function filters the splits from the source to the target accounts and returns a commodity collector. It does NOT do currency exchanges. Export the new function gnc:account-get-total-flow from report-utilities.scm. Apply the new function gnc:account-get-total-flow for the "Withdrawal" calculation. Author: Carsten Rinke 629136 - Move the code that updates the sensitivity of immutable page actions from gnc_main_window_switch_page to gnc_main_window_generate_title. Patch by Guilherme Salgado. 696492 - Change report name in menu or in report output to be consistent Change the register name to "Accout Transaction Report" when the register type is GENERAL_LEDGER, INCOME_LEDGER, or default in function gnc_reg_get_name().

Author: Carsten Rinke Translations updated: Lithuatnian 2.5.4 - 4 August 2013 This is the fifth release in the UNSTABLE 2.5 series. New Features: Register2 work: Restore the delete-transaction-up/down feature, replace the filter-and-sort model with a qof query which loads only a subset of transactions to improve speed, and some date and cursor changes. Aurimas Fišeras contribued patches to make CSV Account import table header translatable, to fix translation of table headers, fix dash marker usage, and some other translation issues. Revert the Bitcoin support until the patch is rewritten with a better UI. Bug Fixes: 703897: Functions which can return null always return a Python object, Tom Lofts. 704183: ofx file import tries to match online_id against ACCTID[space]ACCTKEY even when ACCTKEY is empty, G. Paul Ziemba 704185: GnuCash 2.5 doesn't build on FreeBSD Translations Updated: Catalan, Danish, Italian, and Lithuanian 2.5.3 - 7 July 2013 This is the fourth release in the UNSTABLE 2.5 series. New Features: Save and Save As for custom report templates (Geert Jansens) Customized report settings can now be saved without renaming the report, and updates saved directly replacing the previously saved report or "saved as" to a new name. It's now possible to post multiple invoices from the find dialog. GnuCash was crashing if you searched for all unposted invoices, selected two or more of them, and posted them. This was because the list of invoices to be posted changed while it was being processed. As part of fixing this the prompt for post date, due date, etc. will only be given once, not once per invoice. Register2 work: Better commodity/currency handling, sanity checks when converting TreePaths, Posted Dates now work like the old Register, PostedDate is now recorded only as a date, with no time. Peter Broadberry contributed faster versions of several reports.

It is now the default for account registers. Geert Janssens has begun work on replacing the GConf configuration management tool with the newer GSettings API from recent versions of GLib. Tom Lofts contributed the beginning of a RESTful Python API to enable access to minimal account, invoice, and customer information in a JSON format. Christian Stimming fixed the very long wait time for the UI to become responsive when running the import matcher. Also some bug fixes, package upgrades, and minor improvements. 2.5.0 - 30 Mar 2013 The Gnucash Development Team is pleased to release Gnucash 2.5.0, the first release of an unstable series leading to Gnucash 2.6.0. This release is UNSTABLE and SHOULD NOT BE USED in production. Robert Fewell has contributed a rewrite of the ledger (Gnucash's primary interface window) to use the GtkTreeModel (select "register 2" from the menu) as well as a new CSV import/export facility for account trees. Gnucash now requires Gtk+-2.24 and GLib-2.26. We've removed most of the dependencies on libraries obsoleted by project Ridley and will be in position to move to Gtk+-3.x once the GtkTreeModel register window work is complete. This means that Gnucash 2.5 requires Debian 6, RHEL 6, or one of the more aggressive distributions like Ubuntu. Gnucash now works with Guile-2.0. The business module has been revamped and we introduce a new feature, Credit Notes. It is now possible to import customers and vendors from a CSV file as well. The "Num" field is now optionally per-split rather than per-transaction. When opening a locked "book" one now has the option of opening it read-only. Note that Gnucash is still a single-user program and that the database backends are still used only as a data store. Gnucash is no longer subject to the "2038" bug, so that 30-year mortgages can now be entered correctly. By agreement of all authors we have relicensed Gnucash to the Gnu Public License Version 2 or later from just Version 2. 2.4.12 30 Mar 2013 2.4.12 is a bugfix release.

With this new release series, GnuCash can use an SQL database using SQLite3, MySQL or PostgreSQL. It runs on GNU/Linux, *BSD, Solaris, Microsoft Windows and Mac OSX. Major changes in the 2.4.0 release include * In addition to the XML backend, Gnucash can now use a SQLite3, MySQL or PostgreSQL database to store the data. This is a new implementation using libdbi. It supports all features including the business features. In order to build with this, add --enable-dbi to the configure command. In addition to the libdbi-dev package for your distribution, you will also need the appropriate DBD (libdbi driver) package for sqlite3, mysql or postgresql. * As a replacement for the current GtkHTML HTML engine used to display reports and graphs, Gnucash can use WebKit. WebKit is the engine used by Google Chrome on Windows and Safari on Apple. In order to build with this, add --with-html-engine=webkit to the configure command. You will need an appropriate webkit-dev package. On win32, you will need to download the webkit-1.1.90-win32.zip file from the source repository and put it into the downloads directory of your gnucash build area. * Updated AqBanking on Win32. 2.3.0 - 14 May 2009 o Welcome to GnuCash 2.3.0 the first of several unstable releases of the GnuCash Open Source Accounting Software which will eventually lead to the stable version 2.4.0. This release is the very first to use an SQLite3 database as the default data store. It is intended for developers and adventurous testers who want to help tracking down bugs. o WARNING WARNING WARNING - Make sure you make backups of any files used in testing versions of GnuCash in the 2.3.x series. Although the developers go to great lengths to ensure that no data will be lost we cannot guarentee that your data will not be affected if for some reason GnuCash crashes in testing these releases. o PLEASE TEST TEST AND TEST SOME MORE any and all features important to you. Then post any bugs you find to bugzilla https://bugs.gnucash.org/enter_bug.cgi o If you have the urge to help beyond testing please get involved in the discussions on the GnuCash mailing lists which you will find at https://www.gnucash.org. Please see https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Development on how to get involved. o Major new features: * All features, including business features, are supported by a new SQL datastore, which can use SQLite3 (default), MySQL or PostgreSQL. The legacy XML data format is still supported * Replacement of the aging GtkHTML engine used for reports/charts with the WebKit engine used by Apple's Safari and Google's Chrome web browsers. o PS I'm not going to list the many minor features changed or updated in this release because obviously there is so much that has changed. 2.2.9 - 23 February 2009 Welcome to the GnuCash 2.2.9 Release.

In summary, the following features are new, compared to the older 2.0.x series: o Port to Microsoft Windows completed. Note that Windows 2000, XP, or Vista is required; GnuCash does not run on Windows 98 or 95. o Data file notice: In version 2.1.2 the format for scheduled transactions in the data file was changed. Files using the old format will be read without problems by this new version, but the new version of GnuCash only writes the new format.

As a result, if you begin using the new Gnucash, and you have data files with scheduled transactions, then these files will not be readable by older versions. If you have to make a new data file readable by older versions of GnuCash, this can be achived by deleting all records of scheduled transactions in the scheduled transaction editor. o SWIG is now used instead of g-wrap for providing language bindings. o The Scheduled Transaction list view is now improved and summarized more compactly. The Since-Last-Run dialog has been simplified. o Check printing has been improved, with new formats and simpler format descriptions. o Automatic saving of the data file was added. o Bugfixes and improvements since the last version 2.1.5 include: o Updated translations. o Improved handling of Online Banking wizard on Windows. 2.1.5 - 02 July 2007 o Welcome to GnuCash 2.1.5 aka "Release Candidate 2", the fifth of several unstable 2.1.x releases of the GnuCash Open Source Accounting Software which will eventually lead to the stable version 2.2.0.

We especially need people to help with updating the documentation as all texts refer currently to the 1.8.x series. Please see https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Development on how to get involved. o PS I'm not going to list the many features changed or updated in this release because obviously there is so much that has changed. 1.8.12 - 19 Oct 2005 o Online Banking/HBCI improvements: Debit notes are fixed again; Bank-internal money transfers are now supported, if the HBCI bank offers them; Setup wizard can now works with HBCI, OFX-Connect, and other AqBanking backends; Fix character encoding issues in utf-8 locales; Fix date interval in the import transaction matcher for OFX and HBCI import; Fix PIN entry bug. o New currencies added: Romanian Leu, Bulgarian Lev, Malagasy Ariary o Fix problem with long date formats in some locales (bug#170444) o Add configure macros for mips, mipsel, arm, and m68k; Fix compilation on OpenBSD 64bit architectures o Updated translations: German, Italian, Kinyarwanda 1.8.11 - 06 Feb 2005 o Add extra sanity checks and verbose error message if the setup wizard of aqhbci cannot be found. o Fix potentially missing initialization of gwenhywfar library, as reported by Peter O'Gorman on Max OS X. o Properly accumulate splits (bug #165053). Also fixes a (related) memory leak o Add explicit dependency on business-utils. o Adapt to latest changes in aqbanking; external wizard name is no longer hard-coded here but is asked from aqbanking. o Enable debit notes again in HBCI. o Update German translation. o Thomas Bushnell's patch to protect non-backup pruning (#164875) o Add the transaction guid to some error warning messages. o Fix HBCI date range for statement download. o Fix the last-day-of-month computation for leap years. 1.8.10 - 11 Dec 2004 o Don't use C++/C99 declarations. Declare variables at the top of the function. o Updated British English, Czech, Italian, Russian, German, Brazilian Portugese, Dutch, French, Spanish, translations. o Fabien COELHO's zero-balance patch to remove accounts of zero balance from the report. o Fix a broken recursion problem. Don't call show-acct? from use-acct? so we don't recurse ad flictum. This recursive call isn't necessary, just have use-acct? recurse unto itself. o look in ${srcdir} for build-config.scm.in o Work around problems with libltdl3. o don't automatically try to (require 'format), so gnucash will build on an slib-3 system. o Added quote sources for Indian Mutual Funds. o Skip the case when a token is the empty string. This caused many warnings about a NULL kvp_frame lookup. o Luigi Ballabio's automake patch to gnucash.m4 o guile-1.6 complains about string->symbol when passed a symbol. o applied Vasil's patch to improve the transaction report for HTML export purposes. o Backport of CVS-head changes to improve register open performance when working with large account trees (>500 accounts). The new code caches the quickfill tree so that it is shared by all register windows. o create gnc:current-saved-reports, as the file to store saved reports from cstim. Autoload the saved-reports file at startup (after config.user/config.auto is loaded). o Added gnc:report-generate-saved-forms that will generate the scheme code necessary to create a new report from the saved options of an old report. o Added example Menu item "File -> Save all reports" that will call the new report saving function for all reports. This would need more work so that not all reports are saved but only the currently selected one -- any volunteer may feel free to add that. o Fix saving of report: It now appends to ~/.gnucash/saved-reports-1.8 Statusbar tip is now more verbose. o Add toolbar element for saving the current report. o Add function for saving one particular report to the ~/.gnucash/saved-reports-1.8 file. Add extra menu only for customized reports. o Remove the previous function for saving all reports since it is no longer necessary. o Apply David Reiser's patch for Quicken(tm) cheques with stub. o Apply David Grant's patch to add TD Efunds. o make the desktop file HIG compliant. o change the gtkhtml order to search for >= 1.1 before < 1.1, in order to try to fix #84707 on systems with multiple versions of gtkhtml. o Perry Smith's Null Account Patch. Make sure the security is a real string before appending an account separator, so we don't try to create a "null" account. o Add option to include zero-amount splits in computations. o fix xaccAccountGetBalanceAsOfDate() to properly compute the balance at the end of the split list. o Major change for HBCI, back-ported from HEAD. The HBCI online banking is no longer based on the openhbci library but instead on the aqbanking library https://sf.net/projects/aqbanking which is Martin Preuss' successor of openhbci. This means that now aqbanking-0.9.5 is required instead of any openhbci package. o Fixes for x86_64 o Update for new LibOfx, this among other things, gives gnucash Microsoft OFC support. o Duplicate match tweaks in import code o Andreas Rottmann's patch to support g-wrap 1.9. o provide a default account name so we don't crash when someone imports a broken QIF that has a !Account without an account name. o Daniel Lindenaar's patch to implement a check-box in the Invoice Post Dialog (with a default in the File Preferences) to choose to accumulate splits when posting an invoice, or post a 1:1 mapping. o Phil Longstaff's patch to prevent duplicate pricedb entries. o Heath Martin's x86_64 patch o Mark search criteria for translation -- somehow this had been missed all the time. o Change currency mnemonic for "New Israeli Shekel" from "ILS" to "NIS". o Identified and fixed several places with untranslated strings. o Add configure check for libofx version 0.7.0 and respective error message. Update docs. o Improve importer performance by matching imported transactions only against transactions in the proper time interval. o send an event when a payment is processed so the invoice gets updated as "paid" in the search window. o Make sure we set the proper search-type when we create the query, otherwise the search will fail later. 1.8.9 - 11 Apr 2004 o Updated Polish translation by GNOME PL Team, updated French, Czech, Spanish, Russian, Dutch, German and Italian translations. o dump-finance-quote - Be more explicit when a lookup fails. o log-replay - Increase read buffer size. o Make sure to verify that the items in the reconcile hash are still around after a refresh. o When the commodity is changed, then set the currency to the currency of the last price entered for this commodity. o Add Hungarian account templates by Sulyok Peter o Patch by Geoff Kassel to work on OpenBSD (allow user to set diffcmd). o Don't test double KVPs, on the theory that they will soon be deprecated. o When computing the aging report, ignore splits that belong to closed lots. This way we wont get the wrong values when the invoice falls outside the 360-day window but its payment falls inside the window. o Add gnc_getline() function to read an unlimited line-length from a file (so you're not limited to a buffer size with fgets() and the like). It is similar to the getline(3) on Linux except the API is different and it will always set the return string. o Add workaround code for openhbci/chipcard problem. o Add gnc_lookup_date_option() function. o Add gnc_ui_account_get_balance_in_currency() function. o Add preferences for summarybar. o Add xaccAccountConvertBalanceToCurrencyAsOfDate() function o Summarybar can now display a grand total of all commodities, profits of a period of time and net assets at the end of the period; summarybar can be configured with some options under edit->preferences. o Create two new functions to centralize date-selection option creation. o Export the new scheme functions. o Modify Herbert's patch to centralize the date-selection option code. o Use the new centralized date-selection option-creation code. o Fix a typo in the help (was --diable-gui). o Add db-4.2 to the list of databases we search. o Fix a problem with opt style installs. o Rename from_xxx and to_xxx account tree widgets to left_xxx and right_xxx. o If in "accountant mode" call "transfer from" "credit account" and "transfer to" "debit account" and interchange account trees. o Remove the RECN cell from payable/receivable to stop confusing people. o Change Ukrainian "UAG" into "UAH" o Commented out setting the memo always to "Auto-created split" due to popular request. o Fix for part of bug only allow auto-create SXes which have splits to be created. o HBCI transfer template management GUI added by Bernd Wagner. o Added instructions about running under valgrind. o Added a large set of valgrind suppressions for both guile and gnucash. o Change the reg_type to SEARCH_LEDGER so all the 'action' types appear. o Remove unused 'ledger_status' widget. o At least be consistent about the background coloring of the month labels, even if we're still not using GTK themeage correctly. o Destroy the transient window when the widget is destroyed. o Make the advance and remind spin-buttons editable. o Change the upper bound on the advance and remind spins to 365 [days], with a page-size of 30 [days]. o Disallow the Scheduling of being-editing transactions in the Register, preventing a class of unbalacned SX template transactions from being entered and propogated through the system. o Fix nasty memory-corruption issue; insufficent bounds checking on array index. o Better handling of various error cases in transaction-creation. o When we have a problem parsing a credit/debit cell, indicate to the user what occurred. o Use the account-list filtering capability of the GncAccountSel to only show/allow-creation-of valid account-types in the loan-druid. o Add ':' to the token list of allowable characters in the formula cell. o Fix precedence bug screwing up loan review page. o Don't need to require format; main.scm handles it, and the default "format" (simple-format) is sufficient to handle everything we need. This allows gnucash to work with slib3. o Add code to remove "intl/Makefile po/Makefile" from AC_OUTPUT in configure.in prior to calling gettextize to make sure that you can build from CVS with recent versions of gettextize. Tested with both RH9 and RH7.3 to make sure it works with both old and new. o Move variable declaration to the top of the block. o Make sure we always have intl and po Makefiles in the configure script. Sometimes it was ripped out without being replaced. 1.8.8 - 17 Nov 2003 o HBCI - Improve error message when receiving zero balance from bank. o Add account template for Swiss German businesses "KMU" by Tom Winterhalder o Add *big* account template for German businesses "SKR04" by Betina Schmidt o Add Catalan and Turkish translation, Updated German, Italian, Czech, Greek and Dutch translations. o Add Turkish account template. Updated Greek account templates. o Remove debian scripts o Add a comment about minimum string length o Fix the ISO_DATELEN to be "long enough" o Fix handling of HBCI direct debits (fix wrong textkey). Fix and initially implement handling of multiple banks/users/customers. o Fixed extremly stupid, old bug that causes weird HBCI errors. Improved user messages. o Refactor some GUI code. Improve user messages. o BillTermDecRef should have been BillTermIncRef when setting new bill term. o Applied Frank Pavageau's patch regarding capital gains to handle split transactions. o Don't make a timespec with tv_sec == 0. Fixes some tests on the alpha platform. 1.8.7 - 14 Sept 2003 o Use instead of "libofx/libofx.h" as it's not part of our system. Fixes a dependency problem in 1.8.6 release. o Small fix from hawkfan to get tests to work when building outside srcdir. o Fix a bug introduced by Matthew -- ANSI C does not allow you to declare a variable in the middle of an expression. Move the declaration to the top of the function. o We don't need the trailing semi-colon because the #include adds one. The double semi-colon causes build failures in some cases. 1.8.6 - 11 Sept 2003 o Updated Spanish, Greek, French, Czech, Slovak translations o Fixed extremely stupid bug in the import value setting workaround. o Fixed problem with SX formula_cell calls o Merge missing part of 2003-05-28 commit. The log format changes didn't get commited for some reason, making the log replayer completely unusable. o Fixed crash during dialog startup on Solaris. o Turn off scheme garbage collection during query->scm and scm->query conversion. It shaves about 50% off the test-scm-query-string tests. o Make test-scm-query-string test deterministic by seeding the RNG with a known value. o Add a "slots" parameter to allow for future expansion. Right now this is completely ignored. 1.8.5 - 17 Aug 2003 o Add IS_PAID column and the ability to search for paid/not-paid invoices. o Add HBCI online transfer templates and make usable o Fix a bug where if you unpost an invoice and don't bring the TaxTables up to date, the total value shown in the register is different depending on whether the cursor is on the current line or not. o Don't constantly resize the invoice window every time we update ourselves. o Updated Italian, Brazilian Portugese, German, Czech, Dutch and British English translation. o Add Subtotal and Tax labels in the summary bar to print the Invoice's total amounts. o Change the log format to use GUID instead of C pointers, use ISO8601 instead of proprietary form and log the Notes field. o Port new log replay module from HEAD. o Re-enable reversed legend in stacked barcharts. Needs Guppi 0.40.4 a.k.a. Guppi CVS, though, to actually work. o Update the Polish Zloty for its new ISO currency code. o Add ability to sort by Action and Notes. o Fix the vendor window title to use the company name, not the contact name. Change the message when the company name is left blank. o Create a new "date format" widget to let the user choose a date format (and see the results of what the date would look like). o Add "Deluxe Personal Check" type. Add support for printing to "deluxe" personal checks. This prints the check "sideways" on a US-Letter configuration. o Backport the QueryList widget and associated usage (this allows more places to have sortable column displays for query results) o Improve HBCI error handling. Add more user feedback functions. o Add support for KtoBlzCheck, a small checking package for destination account numbers for German banks. Very small, very useful https://sourceforge.net/projects/ktoblzcheck o TRANSLATION_HOWTO: Added, by Jon Lapham o Add API to the plugin modules to allow post-processing (scrubbing) of the book after it is loaded from XML. This allows a plug-in to post-process the complete book. o Create a scrub function to clear up bogus tax tables due to a bug which could cause tax tables to get created ad-nausium if you post and then unpost an invoice. o Create a scrub function to clear up bogus bill terms due to a bug which could cause bill terms to get created due to post/unpost of invoices. o Enable the exchange-rate dialog on "search ledger" registers. o Raise the import window after choosing a file. o Change dialog statements to allow for embedded percent signs in the messages. In other words, don't allow user input into the format string of a printf. o Change how the billterms option menu is used so it will change properly if you change the invoice's owner. o Don't use gnc:reverse-account-balance? to determine whether to reverse the balance -- base it purely on the report type. o Fix gncBillTermCopy() so it PROPERLY copies the bill term. o Tolerate some HBCI banks failure of the GetSystemId-job. o Don't allow selection of directory for save file. o Add fancy-invoice report, to show what else is possible. It's not really useful per se, but it is another example for users. To be useful it requires some custom editing. o Limit the commodity choices based upon the current account type. o Add a new argument to the dialog creation functions to specify what types of commodities should be presented.Also tweak the title of the dialog based upon this argument. Remove the "new" button when the dialog is limited strictly to currencies. o Show the running balance column by default in the register report. o Annotate the window title to indicate whether a register is for a single account or it includes all subaccounts. o Change the register close dialog to include a cancel option. o Don't close the register if the user cancelled. o If the user has manually entered an amount, then stop automatically updated the amount when the date is changed. o Refactor many HBCI functions to eventually enable queued processing of several HBCI jobs. o Add a "retained earnings" item under equity, and change the title to include the start date (Balance Sheet report). o Don't print the "handling-request" messages when getting stock quotes. o Display selected pixmap when opening an options window. o Fix 'Save As' so it can write to non-existing files. o New data file should have same uid/gids original file. o Added Italian account templates by Lorenzo Cappelletti o Change HBCI online transfer action so that first the gnucash Transaction is created and only after that the HBCI connection is started. Necessary for later implementation of offline queueing and multi-job execution. o Clarify the part of the HBCI setup about potentially adding HBCI accounts manually. o Add a couple of extra checks to prevent crashing if the commodity attached to a price quote has disappeared. o Provide a new warning message before deletion if a commodity has any price quotes. If the user deletes the commodity anyway, removed any quotes are based on the commodity o Enhance the get prices routine to handle a request with a NULL currency. o Fix a crash where removing items in the wrong order could cause "Bad Things" to happen o Sort the bills before displaying them, so they appear in a consistent order (by date due). o Fix a bunch more rounding errors, and add more precision to the price. o Change the description and action of Invoice and Payement Transactions/Splits, to make it easier to print a check off the posted transactions. o Add Debit and Credit totals to Register report. o Differentiate between "file is already locked" and "we can't create the lockfile" so we can let the user know. o Fix the message to be more appropriate when we hit a READONLY error. o Various Postgres backend fixes o Add button for manual adding of HBCI accounts. Requires latest OpenHBCI 0.9.13 o Add saving of the HBCI_API so that bank's status changes will now be remembered immediately. o Add "(Report)" strings to the various columns displayed in the report currency. o Set the date-entered on invoice transactions to "now" instead of the post date. Thi lets us know when an invoice was actually posted, or a payment was actually made. o Support "gain/loss" balancing splits on stocks o Apply patch to fix a number of off-by-one bugs in the loan druid. o Adapted to latest gnucash-docs changes, by Jon Lapham o Add code to read XML files with real namespace declarations. o Make sure we define PWD, as not all shells define it properly. o Workaround for multi-currency importing bug. 1.8.4 - 25 May 2003 o Fix transfer dialog to nothang if OK button is clicked w/o filling in dialog properly. o Add HTML::Parser to the list of items checked/installed. o Updated translations: Brazilian Portugese, Czech, Italian, German o Fix the "View xxxbar" menu items to track properly when a new data file is opened. Consolidate the code for manipulating the View/Statusbar and View/Summarybar menu items. Work around a Gnome MDI bug as best as possible. o The numeric test regex was broken and would fail on ALL numerics, causing all imports to be of value zero. o Fix for creating new template transactions [from Scheduling existing transactions], such that they have valid Posted dates. o Fix for existing/old data without posted dates. If we encounter the condition, fixup the transaction's Posted date to that of the Entered date. o Add LOT_IS_CLOSED and LOT_BALANCE query parameter methods o Fixes for 64-bit architectures. o Add gncQueryGetBooks() API to return list of books in a query. o Add INVOICE_POST_LOT query parameter methods o Add an api to force an event even when events are suspended. Without such an API, events can be lost if the event system is suspended when the event comes in. o Added gnucash wrappers around gnome-print's rotate, translate, gsave, and grestore APIs. All to allow sideways printing (by rotating the image). o Wrap the new print-session apis. o Modify the AC_GWRAP_CHECK_GUILE() macro to take an argument, the g-wrap module directory. Then actually test that the g-wrap module loads. This should detect systems without slib installed. o New gwrap check macro o Deal properly when there are no prices for a commodity. o Supply a start date (as well as an end date) and don't print invoices that occur prior to the start date or after the end date. The aging information ignores the start date, but not the end date. This means the aging information will always be acurate through the end date (even if all the invoices and payments are not displayed). o Limit the itemized invoices/payments to the start/end date range, but print out a "Balance" line if there is a non-zero balance as of the start date. o Nikos Charonitakis's account chart updates: added new carloan account chart, updated account chart. o Use the correct columns when printing the Gain column, don't reuse the same column as profit; we want to report different values. o Don't let the user do anything with the options dialog until Apply() finishes. o Had the wrong number of arguments in gnc:account-get-balance-at-date o Add some (commented out) code to support a start date for computing the Net Income (aka Net Profit) in the Balance Sheet. o Move the instantiation of File -> Properties into main-window.scm (out of business-gnome.scm) for future cases where we might decide to ship the business modules separately. o Fix the ofx test program to make sure it links on many weird platforms. o When we are asked to reload the report, queue the request, queue a draw event, and then return immediately. When the draw event happens, load the report then. This lets you hit Apply and then OK before the report finishes loading. o Make sure we can find libofx/libofx.h o Include split transactions in the filtering of the transaction report. o Use a 'from' date to better compute the Net Income on the report. o Change the default Search Operation for numerics from "less than" to "equals" -- so by default you would search for an exact value. o "eval" changed API on guile-1.6. Use the existing API to convert a delta symbol to a delta time. o Call eval with the right number of arguments based on early or late versions. o Change the date format string to be consistent with other places (e.g. the check print dialog) and use '%' instead of '~'. o Make the Bill Due Days option selectable based on the setting of Notify Bills Due? o Don't crash if you remove the last entry and then add another one. o Deal with the case where the first transaction found for a particular company is a payment o Also print out any overpayment in the total column. o Catch errors when running the child reports so we display the failed report backtrace but also display an error and continue with the multicolumn report. 1.8.3 - 03 May 2003 o Updated translations: Italian, Swedish, Danish, British, Traditional Chinese, French, German, Tamil, Brazilian Portugese. o Turn off the report-total by default o The Euroland currency rates were inverted in the transfer dialog. o Chris Morgan's Baysian Matching code, to match transactions based on Bayesian filtering of previously matched transactions. o Fix a bug in the account name list when you you filtered down to no accounts it would ignore the filter. o The Account Separator option was moved to the Accounts page, reference correctly. o Fix the keypress handlers so they work properly for both the text entry widget and the calendar popup widget. o Force the cursor to the first line of a transaction split before disabling "double line" mode in the register. This prevents the register refresh code from trying to update a cell that is no longer visible. o Fix HBCI close-on-finished checkbutton. o Add descriptions of new HBCI actions. o OpenBSD fixes by Todd T. Fries o New report "income vs. day of week" by Andy Wingo o Fix a couple strings to improve comments when owners and accounts are missing. Direct the user to select them in the report options. o When building the "name + address" string, check if the company name and contact name are the same and, if so, only print one of them. o Fix the glade settings so resizing the window will properly resize the widgets. o Save the entry cells before adding an it to the invoice, otherwise it wont get sorted properly. o Add support in business code for the to-charge amount. o Don't ask the user in the general case when making changes to entries. Generally the user should be allowed to make whatever changes they want without being pestered. o Guile-1.6 requires empty lists to be quoted. o Symbols are not strings in guile-1.6. o Fix "WeekDelta" and add TwoWeekDelta. o Pop up a dialog if the user tries to transfer from a non-currency account, and don't let them do it. o Evaluate the date during get_predicate() in case the user just "hit return" (and the auto-evaluate didn't happen). o Fix crash during import of investment accounts. o Fixes for GCC 3.3 warnings o Fix HBCI user messages where chip cards were confused with key files. o Adapt to latest changes in OpenHBCI CVS. o Applied Tomas Pospisek's patch to the transaction report. o Fix the description of gnc:mdi-show-progress. o Enable changing the "ID" for different business objects. o Fix the percentage calculations so we don't get GtkCritical warnings. o Disable the test-scm-query-import test, since it breaks on guile-1.6 o Move currency conversion to gnc-pricedb.c o Improve report for stocks and funds not denominated in report currency. o QIF imports don't assume that a date of the form XXXXXXXX is always YYYYMMDD. Make sure a 4-digit year "makes sense" o Fix hbci and ofx test for handling --disable correctly. o Fix openhbci macro again so that it uses a C check program. 1.8.2 - 09 March 2003 o Updated translations: German, Slovak, Spanish o Updated HBCI requirement to 0.9.6 o Postgres fix for PG-7.3.x o More fixes for guile-1.6 support o Fix QIF Import for split transactions (#105139) o Remove "display balance in Euro" columns from the main window o Add "display balance in Report Currency" columns to the main window o Fix the transfer dialog / exchange-rate dialog so it doesn't round the values input by the user. (#106332) o Fix configure so tests wont fail on GCC 3.2.2 o HBCI: avoid sending online transfers twice o Dont override the user's toolbar style (#102041) o Import: don't punish transactions with an online ID o Add engine support for employee expense vouchers 1.8.1 - 09 February 2003 o Release of new stable version 1.8.1 o Fixes for qif import crashes o Update translation po/it.po by Lorenzo Cappelletti o Remove the tip that says that this is a development version. o Remove the "development version" string when running "gnucash --version" o Add heuristic for duplicate matching by check number. o Various bug fixes, remove Finance::Quote requirement for rpms built on RH 8.0 1.8.0 - 02 February 2003 o Release of new stable version 1.8.0 o Fix problem getting quotes from trustnet. o Add new script that dumps all the data returned by F::Q for a stock. o Apply Bill Nottingham's patch to use db4/db_185.h o Updated translations, po/en_GB.po by Nigel Titley, po/it.po by Lorenzo Cappelletti o Fix HBCI problem with negative account balances. o Add preference (on advanced tab) to enable HBCI debug messages. o Fix the Recurrence-Frequency example-calendar date calculation to show upcoming instances correctly. o Add HBCI user messages about what is supported by the bank. o Fixes for gcc 3.x build problems with postgresql backend o Many more fixes for the postgresql backend o Fix the "bill reminder" so it doesn't create a query if there are no payables accounts. o Fix some of the accounts in the tree to be more accurate to the real world. o Only set ReadOnly status for Invoices, not Payments. o Fix several bugs in QIF importer o Recognize even more error codes from OpenHBCI. o No longer assume that transaction with type OFX_OTHER are investment transactions. o Don't add income accounts to bills, or expense accounts to invoices. This should help further reduce user confusion with what to do when entering invoices. 1.7.8 - 20 January 2003 o Welcome to Release Canidate 3 o Fixed build issues introduced in last release o Fix compile errors on SuSE 8.0 + 8.1 o Update translations, po/ru.po by Vitaly Lipatov, po/el.po by ta_panta_rei@flashmail.com o Ignore certain splits with an "amount" of zero. o Convert from the old to new symbols for Russian Roubles. o Invoices change a couple of columns.

Remembered across invocations of gnucash. o Default the save directory to the directory of the last file used. Default the exports directory to the directory of the last file exported, or the user's home dir for the first export. Remembered across invocations of gnucash. o Correctly handle the case where no stocks have been defined and the user asks gnucash to get price quotes. o Work around bug in ghttp library so that intl users whose whole units/fractions separator is a comma can request web pages. o Add "Default Report Currency" preference. o Set invoice currency based on owner's currency. o Use invoice's currency for printing the invoice. o Make the progress bar argument a double instead of an int. This gets around an issue with guile 1.6. o Add a checkbox to search-for-all o Changes to make the build system work on multiple architectures and with multiple versions of the autotools suite. Make generated g-wrap sources depend on config.status. o Remove restriction on guile versions > 1.4 Provide a version dependant load path variable for the SRFI location. (Empty in 1.6 since they're bundled with guile.) o Limit QIF matches against only the accounts in the old group, so we don't match against ourselves. This should limit the matches to only "reasonable" matches. o Remove "user name" and "user address" preferences, as they are no longer used by anything. o Create a taxtable option type using the new generic optionmenu code o Create a default customer and default vendor taxtable option for the "File Properties" option menu. o Reset the search-type to "New Search" if we end up displaying no results. o Use the "New Search Limit" pref to decide when to start a new search vs. when refine the search. o Create two new global preferences: "Notify Bills Due?" and "Bills Due Days" o Added sources needed for OS X to dist. o Lots more bugfixes, see changelog. 1.7.7 - 05 January 2003 o Welcome to Release Canidate 2 o Give the user better feedback on exactly what the exchange rate means. o Better handling of corrupt XML data files. Print better error messages for unknown tags, or mismatched start/end tags. o When checking for gtkhtml-1.1, make the lack of pkg-config a fatal error. Also check for pkgconfig o Updated translations, po/de.po, o Fix HBCI reparent warnings. Make the PIN dialog a bit nicer. o Fixes to Postgresql backend. o Changed the "ALTER TABLE table ADD COLUMN..." statements to conform to the current Postgres implementation (and SQL 92) standard by putting the DEFAULT modifier in a separate ALTER statement. This was reported by Christopher B. Browne. o Implement unpost function in invoices. o Correctly open a help window when the initial URL contains a label component to it. o Make the reconciliation window respect the 'include subaccount' flag any time it opens a register. Consolidate logic for opening a new register. Enhance the reconciliation start window to update the ending value when this flag is changed. o If the amount is monetary, map the keypad decimal key to the correct decimal character for the locale. o Fix malformed URLs for bringing up a report options window. o Add new option for specifying sort critera for piecharts and barcharts. o The report title should change when the report name field is changed in the options. o Add a smart function for going "back" from the "load a file" page. If there are any files loaded it returns to the "loaded files" page instead of the initial druid page. o Add support for i18n of price source strings. o Add icons to gtk only windows. o Search on NOTES add code to prevent searching on template-txn accounts so SXes don't show up in find results. o Create a 'file compression' option and pass the data into the backend. This is an option in the preferences. o Provide a simple checkbook set of accounts o When editing an exchange rate, always change the _VALUE_ of the split, not the amount. This has the affect of keeping the visible number the same and changing the "other" account. o Add a set of business accounts to the account setup o Give a much higher importance to the date heuristics in the OFX import. o Disable skipping transactions which already have an online id during matching, untill a fix for the "transfer between two accounts" bug is properly fixed. o Large set of fixes to the build system by John H. Pierce 1.7.6 - 22 December 2002 o Welcome to Release Candidate 1 o Put the build date into the about box for development versions o Deal with broken QIF files that give broken bang-fields. In particular, handle the case where it supplies "!Type Bank" instead of "!Type:Bank" o Fix g-wrap test to fail properly if it cannot find g-wrap-config o Add "Edit Exchange Rate" menu items to the Actions menu and the context menu o Fix the amount display so that the exchange dialog always shows the "amount" in the the local (register) currency. o Add an additional module to check for (LWP aka libwww-perl) before attempting to call Finance::Quote. o Updated translations, po/nl.po by Hendrik-Jan Heins , po/uk.po by Volodymyr M. Lisivka , po/el.po, accounts/el_GR by Nikos Charonitakis o Major update to generic import architecture/transaction matcher. o Change HBCI to using new Transaction Matcher GUI o Require openhbci 0.9.4 for HBCI version choosing. o When not retrieving stock quotes for an account, dim the price source labels as well as the option menus. o Consolidate all knowledge about Finance::Quote sources into one place. Functions to record whether or not F::Q is installed properly, and if so, whether a particular source is available. o Change default new SX frequency to monthly o Filled in a long-thought of idea for a formula cell: can contain text unlike a pricecell, but doesn't really want to do auto-complete like a quickfill cell [what we had been using]. This allows us to provide the gnome formula cell which can remap the keypad '.' character based on locale o Disallow the deletion of accounts with ReadOnly Transacation in them. You must first "delete" the RO Txns before you delete the account. o NOTE: As of now you ABSOLUTELY REQUIRE G-WRAP >= 1.3.3 o Loan Druid re-written o Add menu items and code so a user can limit transactions in a register to any combination of the Reconciled/Cleared/Voided/Unreconciled states. o Give user feedback during the rendering of a report. o Remove old user docs and tools that are now in gnucash-docs o Fix for large accounts overflowing the data types used in the register code which are causing crashes. o Add support for new GnuCash icon made by Jakub Steiner o Connect up help buttons in dialog's to help files o Lots more bugfixes 1.7.5 - 02 December 2002 o Fix for a problem with multi-currency that could result in data corruption.

There is a new target, make doc, that can be used to build the documentation if you have doxygen installed. o Catch the condition gracefully when OpenHBCI config file does not exist. o Compute the implicit exchange rates for ALL transactions when necessary. No longer requires the pricedb for printing split values. This will display all transactions in the currency of the current account, regardless of the number of splits in the transaction. o First pass at getting multi-currency transactions to work from the register. o Lots more bugfixes 1.7.3 - 17 November 2002 o first beta release o improved libofx configure support. Add --with-ofx-prefix so users can define where to look for libofx. o fixed missing ofx files in tarball o updated gnucash.spec file to work with rh8 o added new cashflow report contributed by Herbert Thoma o New functions to get/set read-only status on a transaction, and to print a warning message if a transaction is read-only. o Added a bunch of currencies. o MAJOR improvement to OFX investment support.

Very broken. All new register design -- modularized. Many versin 1.0 ledger functions missing. Splits added to engine. May not compile, will probably core dump. This is alpha level code, not for general use. 1.0.18 - 14 June 98 o Fix Quicken QIF import to recognize "transaction cleared" flag. o Add RedHat RPM spec files. o Fix a bug in configure.in re. motif flags. o Enable European-style dates with --enable-eurodates o Fix core dump reading QIF files o Fix core dump closing certain windows o enable prompt to save to file when WM closes window o fix garbling to description field when cancel button hit 1.0.17 - 14 Feb 98 o Fix core dump when deleting account with open register windows. o Fix core dump when transfering money to deleted (non-existant) account. o Fix tabbing between ledger entry and record/cancel/close buttons. o MS Money QIF import fixes. o obscure fix to Xbae table widget that may fix some mystery core dumps. o add CBB, MS-Money QIF export sample files o add SCO UnixWare, OpenServer build files o precompiled SCO UnixWare 7 and OpenServer 5 binaries 1.0.16 - 7 Jan 98 o Leap year fix o Solaris compile patches o precompiled AIX 4.1 for IBM RS/6000 binary 1.0.14 - 6 Jan 98 o Debian package version o QIF File format patch for reading CBB-exported QIF's o Date bug fix 1.0.11 - 11 Dec 97 o large variety of bug fixes, patches, enhancements. 1.0b1 - 29 Nov 97 o Many, many changes by Linas Vepstas to give double entry bookkeeping, sub-accounts, income/expense account types, and the beginnings of support for the QIF data format. o All "non-standard" libraries needed for xacc (xbae, libhtmlw, and libComboBox) are now part of the xacc distribution, to make it easier to build xacc. o Applied XbaeMatrixSetCursorPosition patch (needed for quickfill) to Linas's modified xbae src. (So quickfill works again.) o configure script to make it easier to build xacc. o The environment variable XACC_HELP will tell xacc where to find the files for the hypertext help. If XACC_HELP isn't set, xacc will default to "./Docs" as the help path. 0.9 - 08 Sep 97 o Lots of code-cleanup. o Adjust Balance window. o Reconcile window! Makes it easy to reconcile your account at the end of the month when you get your new bank statement. o Hypertext, context sensitive help. A pretty nice add-on, thanks to libhtmlw, from NCSA Mosaic. (Now someone just has to write some decent help pages!) o Fixed busy cursor. Previously the code the switched cursors caused the program to crash, so it wasn't enabled. Now it works, and is enabled. 0.7 - 14 Jul 97 o Started adding support for account types other than "BANK". Still no support for Portfolio and Mutual accounts. (They are greyed out in the "New Account" window for now.) o Changed the balance field to use red/black text to denote negative/positive balance (instead of using a sign... If you define USE_NO_COLOR when compiling, it will revert to the old method of displaying a '-' in front of negative balances) o Fixed bug in automatic transfers that cause the "From" account to always be the first account, and the "To" account to possibly be incorrect. Also, added "[To: ]" "[From: ]" (with to account name, and from account name) to the start of the memo field, so you can keep track of where the money comes from/goes to. 0.6 - 28 Jun 97 o Fixed balance/reconciled field (in bottom right corner of register window. (It sorta works now, with lesstif. I don't know about motif... you have to leave the current transaction for the balances to be recalculated.) o Rearranged directory structure... the source was growing to too many files to have it all in one directory. 0.5 - 6 Jun 97 Mostly, minor bug fixes o verifyDate -- affects when accelerator keys in the register window cause the date to cross a year boundary o Fixed handling of the date in the transfer window. Before if the user pressed the "transfer" button with an incomplete date in the date field, the resulting date would be undefined. o If the user doesn't enter data in the description field, The number field, the memo field, or one of the amount fields, the the new transaction isn't added when the user leaves the new transaction, or presses "Record" o Now user is prevented from entering more than one '.' in the amount fields in the register and transfer windows. Also, the user is prevented from entering more than two '/' in the date field in the transfer window. o Fixed a (very small) memory leak in the transfer window. o Fixed a bug in the transfer window that resulted in a different amount subtracted from the "from" account as was added to the "to" account. o Fixed bug that caused a segfault when deleting the last transaction in the register window. o Now if the user is in the last transaction (the empty transaction) in the register window, the "Delete" button does not do anything. 0.4 - 3 Jun 97 o Added "Balance" and "Reconciled" balance to the bottom right corner of the register window. o The main window uses an Xbae-Matrix widget now, instead of a list, in order to line up the account names, types, and balances in nice columns. 0.2 - First (mostly) functional release. Most of the buttons, and menu bar choices actually do something now. 0.1 - First demo release. Lots of buttons, and menu bar choices Don't do anything. The register window is still pretty buggy.
