When performing a search, show a total of matching transactions
Often, when I'm performing a search, it's to find all transactions of a given category, and frequently the total of the results is a value that's relevant.
Examples:
I might search for EmployerName inside the category of my HSA account within the past year to find the total contributions made so far to my HSA for this year so I know how much more I'll need to contribute.I might search for Jack in the Box inside the category of food to know how much money I've spent at Jack in the Box to determine if it's an area I…

About the financial calculator
Would it be possible to improve the financial calculator?
It would be interresting to have more settings. Like in JxLIvret (http://www.cbanque.com/download/jxlivret.php)

Attach files or locations to Accounts
Recently the ability was added to attach files or Locations to a Transaction. It would be great if this was also possible for accounts (in case this is easier: Location would be enough). Often an account is related to a certain Folder, e.g. bills from one Company or bank Statements. In particular for bank Statements and credit Cards, you wouldn't want to attach the file to each trx, but rather be able to quickly open the Folder and open the document manually.

Add a retirement planning tool
It would be very useful to have an inbuilt retirement planning tool that would:
-Use assets (if approved by user) in developing plan
-allow different assumptions such as inflation rates, ROIs etc.
-Show projected net-worth
-Track progress against set plan
-Allow modeling of variations to plan assumptions1 vote -
allow the user to set the zoom level or font size.
I'd simply like to be able to increase the font size of the GnuCash display much like a browser does. I can't always find my reading glasses and changing the screen resolution is not the best workaround when I have multiple apps open such as a browser window when I'm checking my records against my bank's online statement or working through paperless statements and receipts.

option to change a automatic split transaction when entering a new transaction
If i had previously entered a transaction as a split, the next time I enter the transaction it automatically comes up again as the last entered transaction. This is nice in some situations however, do not always want this feature. If have a split one time, I do not necessarily want the same split on the next entry. This seem to be the most irritable with splits, but it may apply to other straight entries as well. Can there be an option to decline the suggesting entry or possibly select a different entry other than what is automatically generated?

Swap coulmns as needed
Would it be possible to exchange the position of columns as needed? I can do this with Excel and LibreCalc. This would be helpful because I could make each transaction register appears with the columns the same way as my physical register.

Scheduled Transaction Editor - Possibility to arrange scheduled transactions into folders and sub-folders
Those having many scheduled transactions know full well how hard it can be to browse the whole list in order to look for the specific one you need to edit. It would me much easier if scheduled transactions could be grouped in some way.

Merge several transactions into a single split transaction (and the other way around)
Sometimes you initially expect several transactions from/to the same payee. For example, you expect the monthly rent payment from a tenant, (which may be you have entered as a scheduled transaction) but in month M he/she also has to pay for some yearly tax (which, again, may exist as a separate scheduled transaction). But he/she decides to make a single bank transfer for the total. In such cases, it would be very convenient to have the possibility to select the two transactions and merge them into a single one so that the list of transactions in the bank account remains…

Create a "Memorized Transaction" feature from autofill data which lists all your payees.
The autofill feature is nice, but it would be good to see a list of all your payees in one place so we could pull transactions from a specific payee, and rename misspellings,etc... Basically a list of payees that we can add or delete from which is generated off autofill...

I am a new adopter of GnuCash and I must say it is incredible! Thank you for developing! What I want is a future balance predictor
I have entered every bit of my financial life in to gnucash. Since most of my transactions are automated I have entered them in scheduled transactions. It is now 12/30/15. What I would like to see is some sort of feature where I could input date 1/31/16 and see what my asset and liability balances would be at that time once all of my scheduled transactions for that period ran. If you could make that, it would be awesome! Thanks.

add sector allocation report
Some kind of reporting structure that can produce a pie chart or bar graph showing some kind of sector allocation report. This can be useful not only for stocks but also for other assets or maybe income/expenses.
For example, if I spend money at McDonalds, Pizza Hut and Dominoes, I can see a report that shows how much money I spent at each individual place, but if I can categorize Pizza Hut and Dominoes as Pizza places then my report can show me how much I spent at non Pizza places vs Pizza places!

allow to sort accounts by total in income & expense statement
Presently, in the income & expense statement report, the income accounts are sorted alphabetically. I suggest they could be sorted by decreasing total, so that the most significant amount appears first. (the same for expense accounts)

Enlarge Arrows to Change Month
In the date dialog box, the arrows on each side of the month should be enlarged. Many times when I click on an arrow, the dialog box disappears and the focus returns to the current month shown in the box.

Graphs w/o legend and dates
Hi,
I toyed recently with the multicolumn Report and found that it can be nicely used to have many Graphs (e.g. single expense accounts over time) displayed as an overview. However, having the leveng and the timeline at the bottom of the graph strongly Limits how much you can fit where. When you go for quite small Graphs, the area is dominated by the legend and the timeline Dates.It would be nice if all reports which Display some graph have the Option of not showing the legend and the individual Dates.

Allow linking bank transactions to invoices from multiple customers
When a client pays by credit card or via their phone through a payment service, (eg. Snapscan.co.za in South Africa) our bank account registers a single transaction per day for all clients who paid with that service. Currently there appears to be no way to link the bank transaction to multiple invoices from different customers.
There is also a bug/oversight in the current functionality - it only allows you to link to multiple invoices if you select them all at the same time. If you link to one invoice, then realise you have another for that client and link that…

BUDGET: A total RE-ENGINEERING
First of all, Budgeting tool is like a joke in GNU Cash (till version 2.6.8) because:
- It does not support multiple currencies when it has to add up from sub accounts to main accounts. It affects ALL, and I mean ALL, the budget reports, because it never fits the budget with the real transactions.
For example: I have a "Son Expenses" sub account (in Euros) into my "Family Expenses" (in Dollars). When I register EUR 100 in "Son Expenses" it add USD 100 in "Family Expenses" instead of, let's say USD 112.13 (http://themoneyconverter.com/ES/EUR/USD.aspx on 10-05-2015). So it will not…
