  1. OFX file import.

    When selectinga file for OFX import, restrict the files listed to *.OFX (or *.QFX) rather than showing all the files in the selected directory - as in currently done with QIF imports where only *.QIF files are shown.

  2. Can GNU Cash keep the creation (of an account, of a line, etc.) on the screen without exiting the entry mask at each validation ?

    After a validation, you should maintain the mask, clear the fields for a new entry + create an exit button.

  5. 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…

  8. 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
    Says the guy who doesn't have to do it -;). And doesn't have the ability.

  9. 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.

  10. Allow batch export/printing of files associated with expenses/transactions over time range

    One feature I utilize extensively is the "associate file with transaction", so that I have proof of an expense which I deduct against my income. However, for the benefit of someone ever being audited, one should be able to export a year of expenses, and have the receipts automatically labeled and exported in a graphical manner too. I currently use a set of python scripts I wrote to:
    1) Determine the transactions that occur over my desired range (i.e. Jan. 1 2016 to Dec. 31 2016).
    2) Converts the file for each receipt to a PDF with image magick, and…

  11. A series of related ideas that will improve register readability and create a tagging mechanism

    1. Add a notes column (narrow by default) to the "main" register display line. Monitors are wider and adding a narrow column should not hamper those who prefer double-line mode to see notes. But allowing for a notes field effectively doubles the number of transaction per screen for those for whom seeing notes is important. I have modified my source code to accomplish this, the chnage is trivial to implement.

    2. Allow users to associate a foreground color with an account, that color whould be used for the acount name when displayed in a register. By allocating different colors to different types…

  13. Add Price Editor batch import for currencies

    In my country Nicaragua, the central bank publish the exchange rate between USD and NIO, so we can get the value of 1 USD in NIOs with anticipation,

    I was trying to use the Online Price Retrival, but it use yahoo fincances, the yahoo finances does not have choice of change to NIO currency.

    I was thinking that it could be useful to import several exchange rate of multiple currencies at same time, using a csv file.

  14. Add Classes To HTML Report

    In order to properly format printed reports for maximum layout and style flexibility, it would be ideal for Gnucash to:

    1) Generate html code with classes for all elements such as tables and divs. Also enclose all text data with the <span> tag.

    2) Allow users to set the path to a local 'custom.css' file, which would then be declared in the report as:

    <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/home/user/gnucash/css/custom.css">

    3) Allow Gnucash to output the pdf file using the html report as input.

    This would go a long way for users that need more than the basic printouts produced by the…

  15. Allow pasting of passwords for Online Account Actions (HBCI)

    In preor versions credentials could be pasted in the confirmation dialogs. This feature made it convenient for the use of password managing programs which store secure passwords. Having to enter a password manually discurages the user to use secure passwords for their online accounts.

  19. Better sorting of scheduled transaction

    Currently, scheduled trx editor sorts by next booking, even including non-active trx. I suggest that:
    - Non-active trx are moved to the end of the list.
    - Sorting order is saved (in the sense of e.g. alphabetcially descending)

    The second item would be more important to me, but the first one is a nuissance too. Most of my inactive trx are quite old, so the "next transaction" is way in the past and therefore much earlier than any active trx, resulting in a long list of inactive trx, before I get to anything relevant.

    Alternatively, I would suggest to allow…

  20. Not sound the error beep for every little thing

    GNU Cash (running on Win10) keeps beeping on every little thing that is done for one's convenience. For example, if I hold down the backspace key to delete everything until the cursor hits the left edge, GNU Cash gives an error beep after the cursor hits the left edge. Or if the left or right arrow keys are kept depressed to reach the beginning or end of a line.

    Error beeps get annoying for somethings that the user understands he/she is doing on purpose (this is done all the time in other programs).

    Error beep should be reserved only for…
