Provide spreadsheet data extraction API
A method to allow a spreadsheet (MS Excel or OO Calc) to extract specific data from specific accounts, such that the spreadsheet can be used to provide different views of the available data.
For instance, I use GnuCash to keep track of my investment properties, but the only way I could figure to set up the accounts is by what each account was for (Expenses > Maintenance; Expenses > Bank Transfer Fees; etc.), with each property having a sub-account (Expenses > Maintenance > Property 1; Expenses > Maintenance > Property 2; etc.). Thus, I can't gather together from within GnuCash…1 vote -
Support PAYe RTI submissions (UK)
PAYe 'Real Time Information' (RTI) is compulsory submission of payroll information to HMRC in the UK. This looks to be sending a bunch of XML files with a particular format (see http://www.hmrc.gov.uk/softwaredevelopers/rti/index.htm ) whenever an employee is paid. A menu option to submit one or more selected payments, or even just raw values, would be very useful.

It would be very helpful to add transactions by applying the account numbers
On complex account trees it is much more useful to use the account numbers to select the accounts. Add the possibility to select the accounts by account number in transaction dialogue and also in account register add the possibility to add with account number instead to scroll trough the whole account list.

Better budget navigation
Allow the user to scroll each cell in the budget screen using the navigation keys(left, right, up, down). Also, provide the user with the option of going to the next cell to the right or down after updating the cell. Right now, I click on each I want to update which can be tedious. Thanks!

Improved form for mass bill entry
I need an entry form where I can just enter
date, bill number, credit, debit account, text and value, value-to-credit if the credit- to account is an asset account, value-to-debit if the credit to account is a liabilities account.
Also a log scrolling upwards would be nice so I can queue these transactions and can review if I have entered running bills id correctly or missed something out from the bills.Yours,
Jens

Easy account selection.
When selecting an account in a transaction to change it or make it new it would be lovely to have a window popup (via a button-click) that opened a list of accounts. Non placeholder accounts would have a check-box and clicking the okay button would apply the checked account/s to the transaction. Multiple boxes would create multiple splits where all you have to do is fill in the amount.
Thanks!

Allow for accumulating split transactions involving multiple charges to the same account
I'd like for there to be an option to allow for accumulating split transactions containing multiple charges to the same account into a single transaction, rather than displaying as many transactions as there are splits pertaining to that given account. The Transaction Journal view does this by default.
For instance, I often purchase more than one thing at a time from Amazon. In these instances, I find it more convenient (and logical) to record that purchase as a single split transaction (with one split per item) rather than many regular transactions, especially in cases when I had to expend a…

vendor account numbers
In Vendor setup allow for an account number.
If you do business often with a vendor you have an account number. This should be stored with the vendor information and appear automatically on an new bill when that vendor is called up. It should also appear on any payment made to that vendor.1 vote -
Make description and memo switchable in get online transactions
When doing a "get transactions" in the online menu, then the value the bank transmits in the purpose-field is set as the description-field of the resulting transaction.
It would make much more sense, if it instead would be written into the memo-field of the corresponding split (since on another bank account, the same transaction gets another purpose field).
At least it would be nice, if the user had the choice in which of the fields he wants the entry to be written.
Personally I prefer a simple and clear text in the description field, while the value from my bank…3 votes -

Provide additional choices in the "Action" box.
Choices that I believe would be helpful are the following: Charge (for example, on a credit card account), Credit (already provided), Payment (for example, by check), Receipt, Deposit (such as a non-ATM deposit or a direct deposit to one's checking account), Withdrawal, Transfer In, Transfer Out, Auto Debit (for example, a utility company automatically debiting one's checking account for a monthly utility bill), and Bill Pay (using a bank's bill-pay service to pay bills rather than writing a check for this purpose).

Add user levels to control access to features/funds/reports (username/password), to control access to features, rather than to protect from
Add username/password authentication to provide for multiple users to have different levels of access. Not so much for data encryption, but for separation. This would also work for multiple family members using the same computer.

Support for templates of national accounting systems
The possibility to create/allow the users to create a template according to the national accounting system from his/her country, with account codes and names - so that each user doesn't have to create hundreds of accounts manually, having the possibility to use that template from start. Unfourtunately, it would have to be somehow updateable...

calculate sales tax in auto fill
Most transactions I enter are
Cash: -X
Taxes:payed: X19%
Expenses:ABC19%: X81%or
Bank: X
Taxes:received: -X19%
Income:jobA19%: -X81%having to use the calculator for every single line on your account statement and every piece of paper taxes twice as much time as entering that number and the first characters of the description.
I could do my monthly tax statements in 1/3 the time if it would remember Expenses:ABC19% and Income:jobA19% to be linked to a given tax value.1 vote -
Provide a built-in accounting calculator
Provide a 'printer calculator', like a simulator of one of these (http://static1.evermotion.org/files/model_images/3e3da420fb324780b21020125fa04ec9.jpg) so that you can print out calculations and attach them to transactions.

Provide for automatic correction when amounts are recorded incorrectly as debits or credits.
Whenever a transaction is recorded in the "Action" box as a particular type, such as "Charge" or "Credit" on a credit card account, program GnuCash so that the amount of the charge or credit must be placed in the correct column. For example, whenever an entry is for a charge to a credit card account, do not allow the amount of the charge to be incorrectly entered in the "Debit" column.

more web interface for report for easy navigation
This idea focus on "navigation" between different reports
Currently, to do a report, we have to click the menu, move your mouse, click again because menu is closedsuppose i want to open multiple reports, it could be a lot easier to see a navigation menu in report page. left clicking it navigate to thew new report in current tab, without having to close an "old" tab.
shift+left click or middle clicking the link/button open a new tab without focusing it3 votes
