Version history:
------- -------
4.7 - 7 March 2021
The seventh release of the 4.x stable series.
Between 4.5 and 4.6, the following bugfixes were accomplished:
Bug 648335 - Display Created Transactions setting
Add a preference for the 'Review Created Transactions' setting in
the 'Sinse Last Run' dialog so that the default can be specified.
Bug 743753 - Nearest in time security price selection is incorrect in
reports
Add new price source - 'nearest before report date' will ignore
prices *after* report date.
Bug 743999 - Deleting a digit from an existing number greater than four
digits in length generates an error message.
Because the grouping is off. Checking grouping on input is pointless
so just ignore the grouping separator when parsing number input.
Bug 753283 - Current Selection Highlight Lost After Transaction Edit in
Scheduled Transaction Window
Bug 787813 - Price change from editing a transaction not reflected in
pricedb.
Bug 794877 - Intro text of "Online Banking Setup" is outdated
Bug 795804 - Extremely slow save
Only update the status bar when the percentage changes by at least
1% because running the mainloop is expensive on macOS and Microsoft
Windows. This speeds up all operations that run the progress bar with
overly-fine resolution.
Bug 796761 - Newline (char(10)) is inserted into the end of the string if
copy & paste text from excel into the description field of
transaction
Bug 797787 - Feature request: preference setting to open new tabs adjacent
to currently active tab
Tests preference; if enabled then new tab inserted after current. if
disabled then new tab is at the end.
Bug 797928 - Since last run asks for security price when no shares traded
Bug 798093 - Changing the symbol/abbreviation of a security after the
trading account was created breaks GnuCash.(Reopened)
Bug 798133 - Gnucash crash when any custom action is entered
Bug 798144 - Reconciliation uses different number than entered
If a number was pasted into the balance end value with a currency
symbol the number would silently fail on evaluate and cause the wrong
value to be used. With previous changes to the GNCAmountEdit widget
a warning symbol will indicate a validation error and prevents going
forward.
Bug 798148 - "Accounts" page Present (USD) column uses future prices
Bug 798151 - Value entry box not tied to associated transaction in Since
Last Run assistant
Bug 798156 - glib 2.68.0 breaks gnucash
Bug 798159 - Keyboard shortcut bug in 'manage document link'
Bug 798162 - Type Ahead Initialization Problem
Bug 798170 - Unbound variable: gnc-budget-lookup when running saved report
Budget Report via gnucash-cli
Bug 798177 - Price of new stock transactions not saved in price database
Bug 798186 - Incorrect result editting account in register when
overtyping a part selection.
Bug 798188 - The Invoice Editor -> Printable Invoice toolbar button
crashes on Windows
Bug 798196 - not building with Boost 1.76
Bug 798199 - Pasting invalid value in date column crashes GnuCash
Bug 798202 - Register input ignores theme on KDE rendering black text on
black background
Bug 798203 - g_assert fault while reversing transaction
Bug 798204 - Creation of Imbalance Accounts
Bug 798212 - right-click the down-arrow in the date register changes
focus to first split
The following fixes and improvements were not associated with bug reports:
Improve transaction sorting on effective num field so that alpha
charachters and numbers larger than 1 billion will be ordered. Ordering
is now numeric for leading numbers (so that 9 sorts before 10) and
lexical beginning with the first non-numeric character. Note that if
one of the values begins with an alpha character ordering will be
entirely lexical. Lexical sorting is localized; as in the rest of
GnuCash only standard ASCII numbers (codepoints U+0030 - U+0039) are
treated as numbers.
Add import preferences for the difference in time considered when matching
an existing transaction to an imported one. A difference less than the
matching-date-threshold raises the score of the match; a difference
greater than match-date-not-threshold lowers the score.
Add experimental report "IFRS weighted-average cost basis report". This is
a work-in-progress to help calculate the cost basis of securities
priced in a foreign currency.
[income-gst-statement] amend headers post Brexit. UK left EU, therefore
VAT headers have now changed.
Plug a bunch of memory leaks.
Change how the print_info is obtained for the register: Currently the
register sets up some 'print_info' values using the default account
but if the register is a stock register they should be obtained from a
parent account with a currency.
Change monetary value for gnc_default_share_print_info: Share values are
not currencies so set the monetary value to 0 for the GNCPrintAmountInfo
Parse the register monetary cells for a currency symbol: Add the ability to
strip the currency symbol from a registry monetary cell if it is pasted
with one so it can be validated.
SKR-49 Account Template: Add codes 4500-4504, drop a duplicate, correct
code 0674.
[gnc-plugin-page-register] Disable reverse on blank split
Make balancing transactions with trading accounts easier by removing and
recalculating all trading splits. This ensures that there will be only
one trading split pair per exchange and relieves the user of having to
adjust the trading splits to match the accounting splits.
Don't bother scrubbing for orphans if there's no transaction currency. If
it found one it would try to create an orphan account with no currency
which will crash later.
[chartjs] upgrade chartjs to 2.9.4. Fixes CVE-2020-7746
[report-core] disallow define-report with incomplete export info. If
exporting is allowed, 'export-types and 'export-thunk must both be
defined.
[test-engine-extras] augment book data generators
ignore .vscode folder
Reorder and relabel price source list for better coherence
Python Bindings: Provide a deprecated GncPriceDB.lookup_latest_before_t64
to avoid breaking user scripts.
Update gnucash_core.py with gnc-pricedb function name change
Change some functions to use const gnc_commodity for gnc_pricedb
Reformat schedule transaction source files for white space
Add depreciation warnings for the removal of individual option tool tips
Remove individual tool tips from radio button options
Removes the function gnc_option_permissible_value_description
ESC key was not working on load of Scheduled Transaction Editor
[budget.scm] show correct tooltip for report option
[html-acct-table] Remove unused 'pre-adjusting balances option
Bugfix: export-code for category-barchart reports would fail.
This stems from trying to handle file-name when calling export code.
Export code no longer require file-name, The export-code returns a
string in the html-document object instead. Remove all file-name
handling in reports. No backward compatibility issues because most
users would not copy a GnuCash >=4.6 report code onto a <4.5
installation.
[gnucash-cli] improve discoverability of export-type. Formerly, selecting
--export-type EXT would dump the cryptic "Report REPORTNAME has no
export code". Modify to hint the user on acceptable reports with
export-code.
New API
[report-utilities] Functions to dump splits in whole book:
gnc:dump-book - splits grouped by account
gnc:dump-all-transactions - splits grouped by transaction
gnc:dump-split - dumps single split
Rename a couple of gnc-pricedb functions that have not been used:
gnc_pricedb_lookup_latest_before_t64 to
gnc_pricedb_lookup_nearest_before_t64
gnc_pricedb_lookup_latest_before_any_currency_t64 to
gnc_pricedb_lookup_nearest_before_any_currency_t64
Add retrieval functions for price before the date given:
gnc_pricedb_convert_balance_nearest_before_price_t64 that retrieves
the balance using the last price dated before a specified date
like today for the preset value.
gnc_pricedb_get_nearest_before_price does the retrieval.
Deprecations
gnc:get-start-next-year
gnc:get-end-next-year

Between 4.4 and 4.5, the following bugfixes were accomplished:
Bug 783283 - Multi-Currency payments use wrong date
Also properly handles the user clicking the cancel button on the
transfer dialog. It will now just return to the payment window,
waiting for further user input.
Bug 797621 - GnuCash freezes temporarily and sometimes crashes when
selecting Sales Tax Table in Invoices
Bug 797630 - Check for missing dependencies of 'Get Quotes' to avoid
Gnucash crash.
Bug 797906 - GnuCash data file is locked after a "save-as" to mysql
database.
It's more general, any save-as to a different backend type, i.e.
xml->sql or sql->xml, left the previous book locked.
Bug 797924 - Crash when searching for customer to process payment.
Bug 797997 - File gnucash could note be found
On Microsoft Windows when run from a CMD shell and passing a path
that contains non-ASCII characters.
Bug 798019 - Currency rates in OFX file are ignored
Use currency_rate information from OFX file if available. Requires
LibOFX v 0.10.0 or later.
Bug 798044 - Adding splits to a lot is extremely slow
Bug 798060 - Invoices are missing on Customer report after upgrade
Bug 798070 - Opening balance does not update when creating account from
Account Hierarchy
Bug 798078 - Report 'Income Chart' prints stacktrace when end date before
start date
Bug 798085 - Incorrect transactions import of entires with large number
amount

U amount has larger range, and must override T amount whenever they're
not equal.

trading account was created breaks GnuCash.
Makes it possible for the user to rename trading accounts or securities
independent of each other.

MinGW classic but are not with MinGW-w64.
Bug 798104 - Menu item for "Import Account" is wrong in danish
Bug 798112 - An error occurred while processing mysql ...
A "Feature" of MYSQL is that it allows C-style backslash escapes in
string constants and replaces them with the actual character (e.g. \n
is converted to 0x0a). This causes round trip problems if the escape
is one of the allowed ones and a MYSQL error if it isn't. Disable the
feature so that MYSQL follows the SQL standard.
Bug 798132 - Invoice Importing crashes when importing low quantity values.
Bug 798135 - GtkEntry text with search list: shows selected entry again
for no reason
Bug 798147 - Notes entry crashes program
Bug 798149 - CSV transaction Import setting loses account name if it is
changed after setting is memorized
Account guid is saved as well as the full account name and when
recalled the account is looked up first by guid, if this fails the
full account name is checked which if successful immediately updates
the saved base account setting with the account guid for future use.
If unsuccessful the account combo is blank with a error message as
before. When save CSV settings button is used, both the Guid and full
paths are saved so previous versions can still use the full path as
before.
Bug 798150 - Error on report over time
Caused by incorrect handling of Daylight Savings beginning at midnight.
Bug 798154 - Tooltips wrong when multiple charts in one report
The following fixes and improvements were not associated with bug reports:

objective-c use .mm extension
* Use common function signature for macOS and Windows init function
and include via common header file
Fix GncDateTime::format_zulu to emit the UTC timezone instead of the
GncDateTime's timezone with the UTC timestamp.
Fix the implementations of gnc_foo_get_day_neutral. As implemented these
returned 10:59 AM local on the day but neutral time is 10:59 UTC.
gnc_invoice_window_print_invoice return NULL if invoice is NULL.
[dialog-invoice] invoice editor reuses invoice report tab.
Allow for Header Bar use in CSV transaction Assistant
There are a couple of action buttons that are added to the CSV
transaction assistant with added alignment based on the action area
being a GtkBox which causes errors if the header bar is used so test
for the action area type and use appropriate specific functions.
Drop default locale currency special case for euro
The condition mentioned in the comment no longer applies. All European
locales on Windows (MingW64) properly present EUR as currency these
days.
Fix fencepost error in calculating the week_num for POSIX timezone rules.
Include the contents of PROJECT_DESCRIPTION in the PACKAGE_PREFIX.
If it's defined. PACKAGE_PREFIX is used to name tarballs and set their
base directory. The translation project has requested that we name
freeze-string tarballs with a pre1 suffix; this makes that possible.

Replace stat calls with GFile to retrieve last modified info
Avoids code-page problems with non-ASCII characters on Microsoft
Windows.
[gnc-tree-model-split-reg.c] use xaccSplitListGetUniqueTransactionsReversed
which is then reversed if required. this removes the need for double
reversal.
[Split.c]New function xaccSplitListGetUniqueTransactionsReversed
Same as xaccSplitListGetUniqueTransactions but doesn't reverse the
list prior to returning. To be used by gnc-tree-model-split-reg.c
Several optimizations
* doesn't call g_list_find and g_list_append for every iteration
* uses g_hash_table to cache list of txns already added instead of
g_list_find
* does not reverse the result, thereby returning a reversed list.

improved. Any saved reports with this option will be switched to
parent-subtotal-mode enabled.

friendly which uses existing translations.
[new-owner-report] Don't create empty rows on report when splits have no
entry in the memo field.
[gnc-report] dump backtrace to console when report crashes
Because gnc:backtrace-if-exception, not used anymore, would dump

Add a tip about announcements and other mailing lists to the Tip of the
Day list.
Fix three problems with setting dates in the Scheduled Transaction editor:
* If the recurrence date is before the start date in the current month
the SX summary dialog would show the next occurrence in the current
month, before the start date.
* If the recurrence date is one day before the start date the calendar
control would incorrectly mark the first instance in the starting
month.
* Set a monthly recurrence on the 18th, with a start date on the 20th
and an end date on the 17 of the following month. The calendar should
show no mark, but fails to erase the marks that were present.

Updated Translations: Ukrainian
3.905 - 14 June 2020
The fourth unstable release leading to the new 4.x stable series. See 3.902 and 3.903 below for additional requirements and features.
Between 3.904 and 3.905, the following bugfixes were accomplished. Some of
these will also be fixed in GnuCash 3.11, some are for 4.0 only.
Bug 796993 - Gnucash should warn the user in case of missing Alphavantage
API key instead of silently failing
Bug 797531 - Improve behaviour when following a hyperlink to a split that's
filtered in the register. Currently if a jump to a filtered
register is made, this could be from a report, other register,
reconcile window and transaction associations and the
destination split is not shown the jump will end up at the
last active cell. This could be confusing so add a test for
the destination split being visible and warn the user with an
option to temporarily clear the filter.
Bug 797746 - [reports] German umlauts not escaped
Bug 797790 - [Transaction Association] Change dialogue: use existing
information to determine the default folder. When there is no
association set, if the file option is chosen set the default
folder for the file chooser to that of the path head
preference.
Bug 797791 - [Windows] list of command line options after
'gnucash.exe --help'? Make gnucash-cli a console application
on Windows so that its output will be redirected to the
connected console.
Bug 797799 - Add Tip of the Day for "Notes" field
Bug 797804 - Date entry field is glitchy (v3.904 regression)
The following fixes and improvements were not associated with bug reports or new features:
Ensure balance-sheet balances do not ignore closing entries, including
them in closing balances from profit&loss.
[balsheet-pnl] value-collector doesn't need to ignore closing.
The value-collector is only used to tally account balances for
asset&liability accounts. These accounts never have closing entries.
No need to test closing property.
[trep-engine] don't create intermediate cells object.
From cell-calculators (a list of column-info), the cells object (list
of column-data) was created unnecessarily. use cell-calculators
directly.
[gnucash-cli] --report show/list outputs to stdout and their error messages
output to stderr.
I18N: Improve tooltip about double-line-mode.
Suggestion by Adrien Monteleone.
Drop unused boost::locale::generator instantiations.
We now have one single case in gnc-locale-utils and all code uses
gnc_get_boost_locale to get the proper locale.
Fix translations using boost::locale::translate
Fix report dependencies that caused Xcode build failure.
Update Schedule Transaction Template dialog status bar.
Copy the functions from gnc_main_window that updates the status bar
with the action tooltips to gnc_window so that both GncMainWindow
and GncEmbeddedWindow can use without duplicating code.
Add the Register width menu options to the Scheduled Transaction Template
dialog.
[balance-sheet] hide trading-accounts if use-trading-accts? is unset.
Fix a null parent error in the New Account Hierarchy Assistant.
Updated Translations: German
3.904 - 7 June 2020
The third unstable release leading to the new 4.x stable series. See 3.902 and 3.903 below for additional requirements and features.
3.903 was the feature-freeze release. However, the command-line arguments for both gnucash and gnucash-cli have been adjusted as follows:
--add-price-quotes is changed to --quotes get
--run-reports is changed to --report run --name <report name>
Added --report list to produce a list of available reports.
Added --report show --name to describe the options changed from the default values in the named report.
The intent is to have command categories with subcommands to better enable a richer command line capability as illustrated with the new report commands list and show.
Between 3.903 and 3.904, the following bugfixes were accomplished. Some of these will also be fixed in GnuCash 3.11, some are for 4.0 only.
Bug 797739 - Tweak Transaction Report Column Defaults
Bug 797774 - Add tooltips to abreviated header columns for all table like
GUI elements
The Bill/Invoice due reminder has a column header of 'CN?' which
was unclear of meaning which is 'Is this xxx a Credit Note'. A
tooltip was suggested but a better fix is to change the column
to display the 'Type' so you would see Bill, Invoice or
'Credit Note' just like you see in the find dialog.
Bug 797775 - Rate/Price displayed as fractional in CSV Export
Change the CSV transaction exporter to follow the Preference
setting of 'General->Force Prices to display as decimals'.
Bug 797781 - Num Field Regression - characters in wrong order when typed.
The following fixes and improvements were not associated with bug reports or new features:
Add a tooltip for the 'C' column in the Chart of Accounts
To match existing one character headings for 'Place Holder' and 'Hidden'
columns.
Add first version of gnucash-cli manpage
Rework command line option parsing to store values directly in class member
variables
[cli-reports] modify to open session readonly
3.903 - 1 June 2020
The second unstable release leading to the new 4.x stable series. See 3.902
below for additional requirements and features.
New Dependency: Boost program_options.
New Features:
A new separate executable, gnucash-cli (gnucash-cli.exe on Microsoft Windows)
for doing command-line things like updating the prices in your book.
gnucash-cli gains the ability to run reports from the command line. Specify
reports to run by name or guid. It also provides an export format and an
output file name without which it will output the report to stdout.
Report Synopsis:
gnucash --run-report=[reportname/guid] datafile.gnucash
gnucash --run-report=[reportname/guid] --output-file=x.html datafile.gnucash
gnucash --run-report=[reportname/guid] --output-file=x.html --export-type=TYPE datafile.gnucash
When deleting accounts the destination accounts of moved splits will be
checked to ensure that they're the same as the source. If they're not
you'll get a warning and the opportunity to pick another account or to
carry on regardless.
New type-ahead search added to sequential search when selecting an account in
the register: Instead of typing the first few characters of a top level
account, the separator, the first few characters of the next level account
and so on you may instead type a few characters of any part of a full
account name and the drop-list will be filtered to contain only matching
accounts. Once you have a small enough list you can use the arrow keys to
select the account that you want.
Python bindings are now localized and their strings available for translation.
The new reports introduced in the Experimental Reports menu are moved to the
main menu and the old reports hidden; the old reports can be unhidded by
running GnuCash from the commandline with the --extra argument. That will
cause the old reports to appear in their regular locations on the menu
labeled legacy. Note that new reports use different options and layouts and
you may need to adjust your saved report configurations.
A new Transaction Association dialog, available from the new Update
Transaction Association item in the register context menu, provides the
ability to have multiple associations for a single transaction. Associations
may now be easily removed.
Allow Associations to be added to invoices. The actual association when
present is added as a link button which is shown below the notes.
A symbol is now displayed on transactions in the register when they have an
attachment and the selected font supports the symbol.
The OFX file importer can now import more than one file at a time.
A new report menu supbmenu Multicolumn contains the old custom-multicolumn
report and a new Dashboard report containing Account reports for expenses
and income, an income-expense chart, and an account summary.
When importing, the matcher will no longer offer to match a transaction to
one that has already matched in a previous import, nor will it offer to
match more than one imported transaction to a single existing transaction.
When no file is open don't ask to save it when opening another file or
quitting GnuCash.
Support for UK VAT and Australian GST added to the Income-GST report. The
reports options are changed from source accounts to source sales and
purchase accounts to permit proper reporting of capital purchases.
N.B. This is incompatible with previous versions of the report and will
require regenerating saved configurations.
Add option to save Layout for Business items.
Add two menu items under windows, one to save an existing layout for
Invoices, Bills and Vouchers to there respective default layouts so the
user set column widths will be used. The second menu item will reset the
column widths to defaults and remove the default layout. Open Business
items will also save there column widths to the page section so these can
temporarily have different widths.
Newly Revised Reports
Income GST
Significant Code Changes:
gnucash-bin.c has been split into 4 parts, mostly C++:
* gnucash.cpp, the GUI executable.
* gnucash-cli.cpp, the command-line executable.
* gnucash-commands.cpp, implementation for the commands that can be run
from the command-line.
* gnucash-app-core.cpp, common code required by both the command line and
gui programs.
* There's also an auxiliarty file, gnucash-windows-locale.c because the
localization code proved resistant to compiling as C++. We're planning
another auxiliary file for the MacOS localization.
A new mock facility for several engine classes to permit better-isolated
unit testing of components that depend on those classes.
Register filter and sort values are saved in the book's state file (book.gcm)
in the user's configdir instead of in the book.
QofSession no longer creates its book, instead one must create a book first
and pass that to qof_session_new()/QofSession::QofSession().
Add option to save Layout for Register itemsAdd two menu items under
windows, one to save an existing register layout based on the register type
to there respective default layouts so the user set column widths will be
used when opening registers. The second menu item will reset the column
widths to defaults and remove the associated default layout. Open registers
will also save there column widths to the page section so these could can
temporarily have different widths.

Input Method handling in the register is moved to the GtkEntry where it
belongs.
