When starting GnuCash, allow selection of any recently opened accounts
Gnucash opens with the last opened set of accounts. If then a new instance of Gnucash is started, you get a dialog complaining about lock, and gives option to Open anyway, Create new file, or Quit. It should also give option to open another set of accounts.

Tracking Liability Repayments as Expenses without Double Counting them
It would be great to have an expense report that could actually count transactions moved directly from assets to offset liabilities. I find it that i need to create an expense account, then zero it out in order not to double count it. I want to see all expenses, plus debt repayment expenses that go directly from assets into liabilities in one report.

Add "Granularity" Option to "Future Scheduled Transaction Summary" Report.
For my original request details pls refer to "Bug 638644 - (Steffie) Scheduled Transactions need incorporation into Budget".
I raised my original request when i used v2.4.0, but months ago i upgraded to
v2.4.2 when i read that one of its enhancements was "Add a new report: Future Scheduled Transaction Summary". I thought this might address my previous
request, above. However it merely presents a summary for the specific items at the end of the nominated period [eg, end of month / year etc], and completely
omits all the interim ups and downs that are so critical to active budgeting.…1 vote -

Save all screen positions
When I click on the "reconcile" link, a window opens up centered between my two system screens. I drag it to the "active" window and close it. Next time I open the "reconcile" window the position is not remembered.

allow multiple select in generic importer
It would be great if you could highlight multiple transactions when importing an OFX file, and assign the same account (and action) to them all at the same time. This functionality currently exists in the QIF importer, but not in the generic importer.

Allow user to post and pay a vendor invoice at the same time
When entering invoices, often the open, posting, and payment date are all the same. Currently, it is a two step process. It would be nice if there was a 3rd button that gives the user the option to "Post" and "Pay" the invoice in one action.

Add item count in the split
Another improvement which could simplify GnuCash usage is item count in the transaction. When I am buing N items of the same kind in a single transaction I can create N splits (which is not very convenient) or use one split and lost possibility of price tracking.
Things are even more complicated when I want to track price of petrol for example. The only way to do this is to create Petrol account ('currency' of this account is litre) and transfer from Cash through Petrol to Expenses.
Probably this 'special account' approach is the only one that fits double entry…

Provide a tool for disallowing unwanted quickfill transactions
Please write a tool that shows all the entries that are in the quickfill database, with an option (perhaps a checkbox) for each to bar it from use by quickfill if the user chooses. Restoring the option (unchecking the checkbox) would allow it to by used again by quickfill.

Add "tomorrow" to the list of symbolic dates for defining reports
The symbolic dates (eg - today, start of financial period, start of previous month, etc) are useful in creating "everlasting" report definitions. However, to create a report of forward transactions one needs to enter the date, as "today" will include transactions also appearing in "to date" reports.
Alternatively, an ability to add an increment (or decrement), in days, from an existing symbolic date (eg: today+1) might be even more useful and flexible.

Allow adjustment of tax amount on invoice to match vendor invoice
When entering invoices, the "Tax" at the bottom of the invoice may not match the vendor's sales tax amount. I have to create an additional entry to a suspense account to get it to calculate correctly. Some vendors appear to calculate the sales tax on an item by item basis while other subtotal the taxable items and then calculate the sales tax.
It would be nice to have an option that allows for an adjustment to the sales tax computation in the invoice to match the amount on the vendor's invoice without having to add another line to the invoice.

implement standing orders via HBCI
Standing Orders (German: Daueraufträge) are not supported by GnuCash at the moment. But the underling libary AqBanking has support for it. It would be nice to have this feature in GnuCash.

Track mileage intuitively
It would be nice to add mileage to a job/invoice/bill as a separate field, and get a total for it in a report for use on taxes at the end of the year. Although I've seen old forum posts about how this can be done with workarounds, it's not very convenient or intuitive. Since mileage tends to be associated with clients/vendors in the real world, why not make it easy to utilize those existing relationships, and save having to create duplicate invoices/bills (one for assets traded, one for miles) for the "same transaction".

The ability to enter everyday purchases with calculated tax without first defining a vendor
E.g. Business dinner/lunch includes taxes. Each restaurant has to be defined as a vendor so tax calculated and applied automatically. Otherwise, each affected account must be updated manually.
