In register displays differentiate where past/current transactions and future transactions meet
Currently all transactions in a register alternate between the same colors making is difficult to find where the break between past/current date and future date transactions meet. It would be helpful if a visual clue like a line with an contrasting color could be placed between the 2 record sets.

Have notes appear on the same line as the transaction
This is not my idea but azalea4va 's.
I just want to place it for a vote.Currently there is the option to have Transaction Notes appear as a second line on the transaction.
azalea4va seems to have created already the code to place the notes on the transaction line next to the description.
This is an option that I would welcome in GNUCASH.
And it would not mean that the existing placement of the Notes should go away for the people that wish it.Maybe azalea4va could provide an option that the notes can be placed

Allow multiple currencies/securities in QIF imports
It would be great if QIF imports could handle multiple currencies/securities in different split transactions.
My actual use case is to create a stock transaction that contains some split transactions due to tax withholding, regulatory fee, commissions.
Currently QIF investment transactions do not support split categories, so I could not use QIF investment transactions to represent the desired transaction.
Currently the normal QIF bank/split transactions do not support different currencies/securities in different splits so I could not use that either.
OFX format does not support split transactions either.
It seems only the CSV import supports my use case now. However,…

Hotkey Toggle for Reconcile Field Value
When entering values on a ledger transaction entry, there's no way to toggle the value of the R (reconcile) field without using the mouse. I'm recommending that <ctrl+r> be a hotkey combo that toggles this value for open transactions during the data entry process.

Split toggle button (expand/collapse all transactions)
I use the "Transaction Journal" style (Prefs > Register Defaults > Default Style) to constantly compare splits between months.
Although this mode is the most useful to me, as the transactions start increasing, it becomes tedious to find a specific transaction and overwhelming to look at all the available information when you're scrolling through.
It would be extremely useful to have a toolbar button that toggles between the existing "Basic Ledger" and "Transaction Journal" modes, which would act as a "Collapse All" / "Expand All" option for all available transactions.

A Security Ageing Report for determining Short/Long Term Capital Gains
An Ageing report for securities to determine Capital Gains - both Long / Short term.
Some Securities may be classified as 365 days for LTCG, others 3/5 years. Settings for securities may be set in the security editor itself when creating the security. eg Shares have 1 year as LTCG, Mutual Funds have 3 years as LTCG, Bonds have varying terms, etc1 vote -
Reconcile window: Add number of transactions for "Funds Out" (debit) and "Funds In" (credits).
This minor modification will help in tracking down discrepancies by comparing these numbers to the ones on the bank or credit card statements.

Auditing report to show what changes were made when (and, later, by whom)
An auditing report shows recent changes sorted by date. This would be very helpful when trying to sort out issues caused by simple data entry error.

Improve the documentation on setting up hotkeys (or make it more intuitive)
Currently I can (apparently) set up hotkeys. The process is not intuitive at all and requires significant background knowledge.
SUGGEST: Add examples which show names of common keys
SUGGEST: Make the whole process more intuitive by allowing hotkeys to be configured in the preferences

use ctrl-pgup and ctrl-pgdn for next/prev tab rather than requiring the ctrl-alt
It's more standard and easier/faster to not require the alt key in addition to the ctrl key

Allow scrolling of tabs
Currently if I click on the horizontal arrows on the tab row it selects the next/previous tab. That means if I am on one end and want to go to the other end I have to cycle through all of them.
Better to have one or more of these options:
* Allow tab row to be extended to multiple rows so that multiple rows of tabs can be seen at one time (you often see this on preference dialogs)
* Resize the tabs if the number of tabs doesn't fit so that it does fit, even if I can't see…1 vote -
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:

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
