  1. Allow csv import of historical quotes

    Ever since the online quotes support ended, update stock prices has become a tedious process. The user must go through the gui, find each stock and enter each price one at a time.

    Yahoo and others allow users to export stock information to a .csv file. Provide a mechanism to allow users to import stock prices from a .csv file. Perhaps something similar to how users can now import transaction data from .csv.

  2. GnuCash for Synology DSM

    GnuCash is available for Linux distributions like Fedora, Ubuntu, etc.

    Nowadays network attached storage (NAS) is quite popular. NAS-systems are relatively cheap and offer great value (file station, photo station, backup, etc.). NAS-systems from Synology (and many competitors) are based on Linux.

    It is beneficial for small companies that GnuCash becomes available on NAS-systems like Synology DSM.

    Typically a NAS is always running. The continuous availability makes it easy for somebody to update a GnuCash administration on a NAS by using a webclient. Without much effort, somebody else may check the same GnuCash administration at a later time.

  3. 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
    on a new…

  4. Batch (bulk) editing of transactions

    In addition to categorizing multiple transactions at once, additionally being edit any field in multiple transactions. Could be a "find/replace" feature added to the "find".

  6. Quick goto-date shortcut in register window

    When reconciling invoices it is cumbersome to page-up / page-down in the register window until getting to the date of the invoice; search is no help because sometimes the transaction is posted by the bank a few days after the invoice date. Solution: Ctrl-G, type in a date, Enter

  8. Remember print settings

    Each time I print an invoice, I need to reselect settings (date format, fields I want to show an hide, invoice style). I'd like to have those settings persistent.

  9. Allow 0 decimal places in currency

    Displaying amounts without the pennies/cents/kopeks sometimes makes sense.

    Some currencies (e.g. Yen/Rupee/Zimbabwe $) have a pretty low value, so the 1/100ths of it aren't used in daily transactions.
    Yet the preferences only allow 1-8 decimal places. Why 1-8?

  10. Make the import dialog keyboard friendly

    When importing bank transactions, the current import dialog requires us to double click each entry to assign an account. It would be much more efficient to be able to use the keyboard to navigate through the transactions and type in an account to assign the transaction to. In effect, the import dialog would behave a little more like the standard transaction view.

  11. Add new currency: "IRT (Iranian Toman)"

    Because while IRR is the government's official currency, people rarely use it, and practically all Iranians use IRT instead of IRR.

  12. 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,
    Melroy

  15. Improve transaction matching

    When importing QFX: does not seem to account for the check number. Matcher does not show check number detail, so if I have multiple checks with the same amount, it's really hard to match things up. Also, if I choose "U+R", it overwrites my check descriptions with generic description from the QFX. Would be nice to just update the date and perhaps amount, if needed, but leave the original description. Also does not seem to want to match to anything older than about 2 months (Someone held the check for awhile.)

  16. Add "Include Subaccounts" checkbox when getting online transactions

    Similar to the Include sub account checkbox when reconciling an account, it would be very useful if when retrieving online transactions that the matching algorithm had the option to consider transactions within subaccounts. This feature would enable Envelope Budgeting - where I have one actual checking account but within GNUCash I subdivide it into several "envelopes", and pay for things out of those envelopes. Currently if I download transactions then modify them to debit the sub account, upon next downloading transactions the same ones come back, because they matching doesn't consider subaccounts.

    I should also mention, your software is excellent…

  17. Fix the moving Entry Date problem by getting rid of entry time.

    Reference: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=137017

    Currently GnuCash stores the entry date by setting it to midnight local time then converting it to timezone Z (which is either UTC or GMT depending on the operating system). Changing timezone to the west will change the entry date to the day before.

    This proposal would fix the problem by saving only the date, without any timezone adjustments, so it would remain fixed regardless of the timezone in which it was entered.

  19. Have an option to change the transaction color

    It would be very helpful to have the ability to highlight either a transaction or a group of transactions by various colors. This could be used to highlight the end of a quarter, a transaction in need of review, and could be used to group transactions based on user preference ie green transactions are credit payments and red ones are credit charges. Basically, they could be used to easily make certain transactions stand out on the register, making it easier to spot those transactions. Making transactions easier to spot, makes things more productive and less error prone.

  20. look up vendor addresses when printing checks

    I print to many of the same vendors every month, using preprinted checks and window envelopes. I can print the check, but must fill in the address on every check. If there were a lookup of the vendor table and fill in the address, it would greatly simplify check printing. I would pay for this feature.
