Set the default frequency of scheduled transactions to monthly
99% of my scheduled transactions are on a monthly basis and almost never do I use a daily scheduled transaction.
It makes sense (if others' usage is similar to mine) to either set the default frequency for these scheduled transactions to "Monthly" or (if my usage is not similar) to either (a) have a preference to set or (b) keep track of whatever was used last and make that the default for the next one.

Make the need for ALPHAVANTAGE_API_KEY env var (or preference) clear while setting up
I was setting up multi-currency and just quickly followed the instructions that came up. It failed. Turned out I needed an Alpha Vantage API Key in order for it to work. I didn't find this out until I went deep into the trouble-shooting docs even though this is apparently a basic requirement.
If this is a requirement, when someone is setting up multi-currency include that as a step and ask them to enter it at that time.
WHERE I LOOKED IN DOCS: Section 9.6.3 where it says this:
Run Install Online Price Retrieval which can be found in the GnuCash…

When a number is entered in both columns (credit/debit) keep most recently entered number rather than deleting both
I was setting up my personal finance and got mixed up with column names and put all my credit card transactions in "Payments" instead of "Charges". After 20-25 transactions I realized my mistake and quickly went down the list typing in the number into the "Charges" column from the payments. I assumed it would delete the number in the "Payments" column. Instead it deleted BOTH numbers and saved the resulting transactions, thus making it so I had to go back to my source document (which, since I summarize and sub-total some transactions, was a pain in the neck).
If I…

CNY currency change to CNH
Currently GnuCash uses CNY as Chinese Yuan currency name, is it possible to change it to CNH, insce CNY is Chinese Yuan used in Mainland China, which is not available to exchange for other currencies, and CNH is the offshore version of the same currency (therefore can be exchanged for other currencies). Detail please see here https://www.dailyfx.com/forex/fundamental/article/special_report/2018/09/12/cnh-vs-cny-differences-between-the-two-yuan-.html

How To: Remove Entries from Recent File History List
After searching forever and finding no answers, but seeing other people also ask ... the question remains, how to remove the history of opened accounts, say for example you have several test accounts in various locations or named the same ... example: business.gncash, but 3 versions... obviously it's very helpful to remove what is not currently used or named unique.
Most people use Windows right ?
Open regedit (type regedit in the run box, press ok)
Open HKEYCURRENTUSER
Expand Software then GSettings then org then gnucash
Click on the History folder to see a list of names and…1 vote -
A/Payable Shows red amounts on some transactions
Recently payable account shows a red minus value after a payment? Searched for ever to find why all other transactions are normal.
By total accident discovered that if auto number invoice is used, then its normal.
Adding an invoice number makes a red entry.
The solution, make sure the payables account has the same invoice number for recording and paying, by default it does not add the invoice number on one entry, add it manually and balances show normal then.
Perhaps add a tip somewhere on this in help file or cause gnucash to copy custom invoice numbers on debits…1 vote -

Add buttons to navigate between online price retrieval and security editor
Adding securitites and setting up online price retrieval can involve a lot of clicking to switch between the retrieval tool and the security editor. Please add a button "Retrieve prices now" to the window allowing to edit/create securities. And add a button in the retrieval tool "Edit Security" for existing ones when selecting the security.

Ignore dummy split in memorized transaction for proper calculation of exchange rate and Trading Accounts
At the moment, memorized split transaction works perfectly if it involves a pair of regular accounts (and a pair of trading accounts).
However, in the case of stock dividend entry, another dummy split will be needed to indicate the relevant stock for proper reporting in Advanced Portfolio. For example:
Asset\Citibank\USD 100.00
Trading\Currency\EUR 92.00
Asset\Stock\ABC
Income\Dividend 92.00
Trading\Currency\USD 100.00Due to this extra split, the exchange rate windows won't popup to calculate the equivalent amount for the other account as well as the trading accounts.
It would be nice if some extra logic could be added in processing the memorized transaction…

Add an ability to set the fraction traded to smaller than 1/1000000000
There are plenty of crypto currencies where the smallest denomination is less than the current limit. (E.g. ETH on Ethereum blockchain has 1e-18 and so do many tokens there).

Move blank transaction to the top of register
We have options to view transactions from newest to oldest by date for easier to check our transactions.
But, I need to move to the bottom for every time i want to put my new transactions into the register. It's look like not good practice.
Please, Add the option that make "Blank Transaction" Move to the Top of Register.1 vote -
Pre-fill descriptions in post invoice dialog box
When posting an invoice the user is prompted to enter the post date, due date, transaction number and description/memo.
This idea is to pre-populate the description with data already entered in the invoice details. Users would be able to select invoice data, vendor name/number, invoice number, due dates, job name, customer name/number, customer charge back, billing ID etc etc
This pre-populating will reduce data entry when posting the invoice to the general ledger

Change default invoice report to a user-created custom one
When creating/editing/viewing an invoice, one can easily click the "printer button" so a report about the invoice is generated, in a format that can be sent to customers.
However, the default report isn't exactly beautiful and readable, so I created a custom report and saved the template. This way, I can send better invoices to my customers. Unfortunately, I have to open my custom report, search for the invoice and, finally, generate the result I want.
That got me thinking: it would be so more practical if I could choose the default template or custom report to be used by…

Scheduled Transactions "except on weekends" should have an option for holidays
Different countries have different holidays, but the holidays could be entered on the initial setup by the user. The program could reference the list so it doesn't have to be hard coded for each country.
