  1. Add user levels access (username/password), Setting MySql or Postgresql Database

    Need user level access, with username and password.

    Need database setting, for administrator only, not for all users. This is very important, to make database secure from all users access.

    Thank you

  2. file associate drag file

    would be amazing if you could associate a file with a transaction by dragging that file onto the ledger. Or if there was a hotkey available to make it faster to work with files.

  3. make it easy to switch from Quickbooks.

    Because Quickbooks is pushing all of their customers to moving toward the cloud based system that does not work well at all, I already know many businesses and individuals who want to switch. The biggest obstacle for them doing it is the impossible task of getting any historical data and transactions imported from their existing books into GnuCash...

  7. 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,…

  9. 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.

  13. Budget reports: collapse and expand account tree

    In budget reports, the display depth of accounts can be set in de the report options. It would however be useful if (sub)accounts could be collapsed or extended by clicking on the account on the higher level. Then there is no need to open the options first and regenerate the report.

    Same goes for charts like the expense charts: when the report is generated with for example the second sub-account level, the user should be able to click on a part of the chart to open the (3rd level) subaccounts of that account.

  14. Transaction Report - Trend Analysis by time intervals

    The customisation of transaction report is a really useful feature but it does not allow users to do a trend analysis over a period of time. Currently I can configure the transaction report by selecting the accounts that I want to include and also select the time period but there is no feature to select the time interval for a given time period. For example if I want to analyse how my expenses are trending on a monthly basis for the current financial year I have to run individual monthly reports. It would be really useful to have an option…

  15. Add support to generate electronic accounts in iXBRL

    In the UK, we can file for accounts electronically. I believe it's by exporting the accounts in a format called "Inline eXtensible Reporting Language" (iXBRL).

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XBRL

    https://www.gov.uk/company-filing-software

    The following is a list of software tested by Companies House that they recommend to companies for electronic filing. When or if GnuCash adds this support, it could also be added to this list.

    https://www.gov.uk/company-filing-software/filing-annual-accounts-returns-and-tax-accounts

    It appears this format is also accepted in the US, and Singapore as well.

  16. Multiple attached URLs / identifiers per transactions

    (Or files, that would also be useful.)

    Closely related to existing feature request: https://gnucash.uservoice.com/forums/101223-feature-request/suggestions/1951947-user-defined-fields-attributes

    I often have a single transaction represented in multiple systems. For example, say I pay a grocery order which is split between me and my flatmates.

    • The grocery order has an "order number" associated with the merchant (a string like abc-12345-xyz).
    • The order also has a URL with the merchant.
    • We use Splitwise to split transactions, so I'd also like to attach the Splitwise URL to the transaction. (Basically if I pay $250 for groceries, there's a maybe $50 split that goes to "Expenses:Groceries", then…

  17. Collapse all accounts shortcut

    Hi sir, I use Gnucash as a warehouse management software, almost have two thousand subaccounts and thirty parent accounts.

    collapse account one by one is slow, scroll up to the top level also need some time.

    Is it possible that add a global shortcut that can collapse all accounts directly ?

  18. add a relative period option before end date in reports

    I would like to set my end date in reports as "end last month/quarter" and have start dates that are relative to the end date so I get a report that summarises the last three, six, or twelve complete months so that I can see a moving window of data as the year progresses.

  20. Could you please fix the export issue in Chinese

    Thank you for creating this great software!
    I'm new to GnuCash and begin to love this software. But I found that the export csv function is not working correctly when the tree or description is in Chinese.
    It works fine in exporting xml. But xml does not includes all transactions.
    I'm afraid that I will lose all my transactions when I have to change computer.

    Thank you again for your great work!
