Provide an archive function
From what I can tell, the only way to effectively do an archive is to open a new account -- pick the day you want to start "as of", then place the opening balance that the account had as of that date. Then copy over the transactions into the new account. The "old" account would have all transaction before the "as of" date, and the "new" account would have all the transaction after the as of date. It's a lot of work. An archive function would be so much nicer. That way, I could get rid of transactions that are…

improve autocomplete of descriptions and categories
Entering transactions, gnucash often guesses wrong about what my intent is. I'm okay with that. What I'm not okay with is that the wrong guesses mess up my continuing input.
If I type "Ama" and then it autocompletes "Amazon", then I should be able continue typing to get it to change the autocomplete to "Amazing" by typing "zi".
When matching account names, if I type ":" then it should lock in the current autocomplete up through the next ":" in the account name.
So, when I type "Ca" and it autocompletes "Car:Gas:R32", I should be able to type "::" to…9 votes -
add keyboard shortcut to jump to the previously edited transaction
After hitting tab/enter to create a new transaction, I often immediately want to edit it. I propose SHIFT-enter to get you to the last transaction you changed.

Highlight the current date in the calendar picker
When using the calendar picker, highlight the current date (not just the date selected) to prevent errors in entry. In this example (https://www.screencast.com/t/3LuQToD7) the current date is highlighted in yellow.

Report to print any range of months of a year in a form just like the cash account does
It would need to begin withe bal on hand..then the deposits and check. In arder of occurrence with the ending balance at that point. It would look just like a section of the cash account. It should be fairly easy to do

Have a Minimum Balance setting for accounts
(Perhaps just for checking and savings accounts)
I'd like to be able to specify the Minimum Balance for an account. In the register view the balance would be displayed in red whenever it was below the minimum balance amount, the way it currently does if the balance is below zero.

Fix the position of the CLOSE button
The CLOSE button in the toolbar jumps from the second to the third position (and back) depending upon the tab in use. This has the annoying effect that when closing a series of tabs, one is all too frequently presented with a new invoice! Keeping the CLOSE button in the second position would add a degree of commonality to every tab.

Support XBRL standards (SBR)
Support the new XBRL digital format standard.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XBRL
XBRL is widely used, and even mandatory now a days by the authorities and government. In The Netherlands for example they force you to use SBR (Standard Business Reporting). SBR is also based up-on the XBRL.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_Business_Reporting
Standarizion gets more and more important. If GnuCash does not agree with focusing on digital standards, I do not see a good future.
Kind regards,

Rearrange Reports
The current income statement adds up all income and gives a subtotal. Then it adds up all expenses and gives a subtotal. Then it nets them out for total income/loss.
I need to be able to customize the income statement sorting the order of the accounts and adding subtotals where needed. For example, there is no way to create operating income by subtracting operating expenses from Sales. I'd like to break it down further and include a gross profit by subtracting GOGS from sales. Then subtract other operating costs to get Operating income. Then add other income and expenses such…

CSV Import to Liability Account - Column Naming for Debit/Credit
I import transactions from my CC statements and LOC accounts by using exported CSV files. The import dialog uses the terms "Withdrawal" and "Deposit" to indicate whether the transaction was a debit or credit. I found the terms a bit ambiguous when it referred to a liability account because, in my mind, a withdrawal could indicate a decrease in credit and a deposit could indicate an increase in credit.
I recommend that it should be possible to choose the wording for these column headings to debit/credit and that when a liability account is chosen the transactions are properly added as…

Change the "red line" to a hard date instead of "x days back in time."
This allows one to close a period, disabling changes to a register after a certain date. Right now, the red line floats a certain number of days in the past, which is helpful, but doesn't allow one to "hard-close" a reporting period.
Nice, but not as critical, would be the ability to set a different red line for individual accounts (each of which is no earlier than the books-wide, master red line).

Save different sets of columns with different Accounts tabs
Although one can set up multiple Accounts tabs with different filters applied (for example, have a cash flow tab for Income/Expense accounts, separate from an balance sheet tab for Asset/Liability accounts), it's less useful than one would like, because the set of columns used with each is ideally different (for example, Total (Period) for cash flow, versus Present for balance sheet).
Although one can configure different columns on different tabs, it doesn't stick. After exiting and reopening the program, whatever columns open apply to all tabs.

A heresy: optionally merge credit/debit columns into one, use negative/positive numbers instead
It seems to be a tradition in accounting to use negative numbers as rarely as possible. But the columns credit/debit (or in other incarnations deposit/withdrawal, spend/receive, ...) are in my view just confusing. In the end you either add or subtract to an account, so there is no point in having one column for subtraction and other column for addition.

Budget Flow
The left column of budget flow is intended to be the budget it self. The problem is the total value at the end. Instead of subtracting the expenses from incoming, it is adding both values. For instance: If I have an amount of 2000 of expenses and an amount of 2500 of incomes the total amount will be 4500 instead of 500,00. This might be happening because of a changing of some way that Gnucash handled the incomes and expenses.
I hope you improve the budget as a whole asp. Because this is a great software that has a great…4 votes -

Account page columns for multiple previous periods
On the accounts page, I'd like an available column for not just Total (period), but Total (previous period). Ideally, I'd set up an Accounts tab with columns for Total (current period), Total (n-1), Total (n-2), using the Accounts page as a more dynamic version of a cash flow report.

High DPI Support
It would be great if GnuCash would support high DPI screens. For example, my 13.3" laptop has a screen resolution of 3200x1800 and several elements of GnuCash's UI are close to invisible. This is a significant issue for many users, especially as screen DPIs continue to climb.
Gnome applications (I run Gnome shell on wayland) appear to scale very well. This gives me hope that high DPI issues in GnuCash can be addressed easily.
