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

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.

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?12 votes -
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.

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.

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,

Allow invoice payments to credit to other than assets or liabilities
When an invoice is created the posting entries are a debit to A/R and a credit to an Income account. When a payment is received the posts are a credit to A/R and a debit is forced into an Asset account or "Liabilities". I need to be able to direct the debit into an Expense account from time to time as a discount may have been granted after the invoice was posted. Additionally, it would be nice to be able to enter more than one Transfer Account for a single payment. Combined with the above I could take care of…

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.)

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…

Export Invoices to LaTeX
Add the ability to export the data from an invoice as LaTeX data which can be modified and run through LaTeX. Some users have created scripts to automate this process, but are out of date and cumbersome.

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.

sync data across multiple devices
We should be able to sync data across multiple devices. This would enable users to add entries as and when they occur and will also improve the convenience

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.

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.

Allow user to post and pay a vendor invoice at the same time
When entering invoices, often the open, posting, and payment date are all the same. Currently, it is a two step process. It would be nice if there was a 3rd button that gives the user the option to "Post" and "Pay" the invoice in one action.

auto-guess split when auto-filling transactions
So I have lots of reoccurring expenses which are often split (sometimes it is a business expense, which is split between a tax-deductible account and a non-deductible account, or a joint expense, where half of it is an expense and half a credit to an asset account representing the money owed), but while the amount may change, the percentage split doesn't. So auto-fill works great for getting the accounts I need, but once I enter the new total amount, the splits are all wrong and I have to manually adjust them. It would great to have gnucash auto-adjust the split…

OFX Import Improvements
Show a transaction report or something when importing an OFX file. OFX import for investment accounts has a few quirks or bugs. One very frustrating thing about it is that the user can't see how the transactions were imported (what accounts, too often the wrong one). If the transaction were shown in a new tab like what is done in with 'Scheduled Transactions' then the user could see what happened & fix it. There's a click box to 'Review created transactions' when getting 'since last run' scheduled transactions, this is what I had in mind. A report would probably work…
