* 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.
Improve python shell output and explanatory comments.
Ensure that python help displays help.

[window-reconcile] Refactor common actions into WidgetSetAmount.
Force WITH_PYTHON=YES for distcheck to ensure that it works from the
tarball.

The fifth unstable release leading to the new 4.x stable series. This is the release-candidate: Barring any serious bugs it's what we'll release as 4.0.
Between 3.905 and 3.906, the following bugfixes were accomplished. Some of these will also be fixed in GnuCash 3.11, some are for 4.0 only.
Bug 797808 - Caps Lock Breaks Almost Everything
Bug 797811 - GnuCash crashes with segfault when saving to mysql when
database already exists.
The following fixes and improvements were not associated with bug reports or new features:
Add missing #includes into gnc-imp-settings-csv-price.cpp
Found in failed win maint nightlies.
[business-core] string-hash doesn't guarantee unique hash, use guid
string instead.
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.
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.
Input Method handling in the register is moved to the GtkEntry where it
belongs.
Between 3.10 and 3.901, the following bugfixes were accomplished:
Bug 796531 - transaction report: export file/location associated with
transaction.
Displays the Transaction Association link in the Transaction
Report and when selected will open the association outside of
Gnucash as it currently does when opened from the register.
Bug 796932 - Invoices order when assigning paymentssorts documents in
dialog-payment.c by date, then by document ID.
Bug 797052 - Autofill Selection is Corrupted After Clicking Description
Bug 797185 - [transaction association window] sorting by column.
Bug 797185 - Allow sorting on all Transaction Association columns
Bug 797220 - delete account allows move of all transactions to account having
non-matching currency
Bug 797236 - Regression: Reconcile window transaction list resets to top
when new transaction created in account.
Bug 797264 - 3.5 can't use Chinese IME input.
Bug 797329 - Using Japanese IME to enter transactions results in unexpected
field jumps
Bug 797388 - GnuCash 3.6 segfaults regularly.
Bug 797648 - Cannot reconcile both splits of a transaction with 2 splits for
bank account subaccounts if only 1 is cleared
Bug 797659 - Liabilities in budget report no longer calculate correctly
Bug 797689 - Child dialog windows are demoted behind parent window when task
switching.
Bug 797707 - CSV Transaction Export: custom dates should be insensitive by
default
Bug 797717 - Summary bar changes height when opening a menu or scrolling over
an option
Bug 797737 - Import matching can match an imported transaction to an existing,
previously matched transaction
Bug 797743 - Monetary amounts are occasionally rendered in fractions
Bug 797745 - Unable to change default report currency
Bug 797748 - missing header "algorithm"
Bug 797750 - SIGSEV in swig-engine.c
Bug 797754 - In an account register, scrolling stops working when the mouse
pointer re-enters the scrollbar after leaving it.
Bug 797760 - Broken register split activity--cannot delete splits, unable to
tab complete account name.
Bug 797761 - Customer report beta: opening balance tax column shows garbage
string
Bug 797768 - View Lots sorting numbers not right.
Bug 797770 - Reconciliation report does not consider credit transactions
The following fixes and improvements were not associated with bug reports or new features:
Add an Invoice section to dialog-utils for when the path head changes.
Change the position the register pop up so it aligns better.
Fix the alignment of the Notes label in Transfer dialog.
Set the initial Split horizontal paned position to be half way when the
window is realized.
Set the expanding columns in the lot viewer to be the 'Title' and the
'Description'. Also ellipsize the description to help with long
transaction descriptions.
Change the alignment of the numeric values in the lot viewer to be right
aligned so the numbers line up.
[new-aging] speed up split->ownerseveral speed ups
1. split->owner will now cache results, bypassing gncOwnerGetOwnerFromLot
and gncInvoiceGetInvoiceFromLot for repeated calls to the same split.
2. previously each call to split->owner would allocate a new gncOwner. Now
a new gncOwner is only allocated during a cache miss. the list of
gncOwners is maintained and is purged when split->owner is called with
#f. There is no need to maintain a to-free list of gncOwners anymore.
3. instead of slow gncOwnerReturnGUID to test equality, use gncOwnerEqual.
Fix crash in case filter is less than 4 parameters.
Change the Options GtkCheckBox to use its own built-in label and remove the
label in the first column.

Enable the Options Checkbox label to be used to toggle values.
Add enum SplitRegisterTypeGroup to group registers.
Change state_section parameter for gnc_table_save_state

[eguile-gnc] don't catch errors in eguile-gnc
Initially select the last account chosen in the account picker dialogs.
Separately keeps track of last investment account, security account, and
income account. One issue is that gnc_import_select_account doesn't tell
the caller if it put up a dialog or found the online ID on an existing
account. This means the last account may be one the user didn't manually
select.
Transaction matcher dialogue was not closing when changing book.
Correct parent widget for import new account dialog.
No Selection on load for Bill Terms.
Change the selection process so it selects the first entry if present on
load and also selects a newly created entry when completed.
Change the Tax Table dialogue to be based on a GtkWindow.
When using Gnucash on Microsoft Windows and a dialog opens a further dialog
when you switch away from the application and back the last dialog that has

[test-stress-options] fix combinatorics testing
Premise: pairwise combinatorics testing is only possible when all options
have at least 2 options. The "General Journal" report is unique because
it starts with the Transaction Report options generator, and adds a few
hidden options. Unfortunately the Transaction Report receives the
"General/Stylesheet" option, with only 1 default stylesheet. The General
Journal report therefore has 1 stylesheet option with only 1 choice, and
is not acceptable to jenny for pairwise testing. It would fail the
combinatorics testing. Adding other stylesheets did not successfully allow
pairwise testing. Therefore the simplest way to test General Journal is to
disable multichoice testing whereby num(choices) is only 1.
[Account.cpp] more xaccAccountTypeGetFundamental types
Fix the crash that occurs when opening a new book when the
transaction-matching dialog has been opened then closed.
Display report zoom factor with one decimal space.
Fix transaction post_date being set to midnight local.
Respect the environment LD_LIBRARY_PATH for loading Scheme modules and tests.
Add a tip about announcements and other mailing lists.
Change occurrences of gdk_display_get_default to gdk_window_get_display()
Remove some Gtk version checks in code
Remove some Gtk version checks for CSS
Fix libgnc-app-utils.dylib install_name_dir. The install location changed as
part of expunging libgnc-module.

Fix 3 problems with the scheduled transactions calculations
* Set a monthly recurrence on the 10th with a start date on the 20th of
this month. The editor correctly shows the next occurrence to be on
the 10th of the following month. The schedule transaction summary
dialog incorrectly shows the next occurrence to be on the 10th of this
month (before the start date!)
* Set a monthly recurrence on the 19th, with a start date on the 20th
of this month. The editor's calendar marks incorrectly show the next
occurrence to be on the 19th of this month (before the start date).
* 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.
Fix issue when editing the account tree view notes field
When you try to edit a multiline account notes field in the account tree
view you end up with just one line with control characters as it is being
edited with a GtkCellRenderText cell. To fix this I have added a new cell
renderer based on a text view.
Fix failed build of python tests and failed test in 3.10 tarball.
Updated Translations: Croatian, Hebrew, Ukrainian
3.10 - 10 April 2020
The eleventh release of the 3.x stable series.
This is a snap release to reverse the changes to the reconcile
window's filtering reconciled transactions with a reconcile date after
the current statement date when computing the starting balance. It
seems that many users' books have accounts with reconcile dates in the
future that were suddenly filtered out, creating an incorrect starting
balance and making it impossible to reconcile the book.
The following bugs have been fixed:
Bug 620848 - Transfer Funds window - add Notes field
Bug 797006 - Balance is misleading in open subaccounts when different
currencies are involved
Bug 797318 - Amounts ending in zero displayed as fractions
Bug 797659 - Liabilities in budget report no longer calculate correctly
candidate fix.
Bug 797666 - libgnucash/engine/test/test-recurrence.c: In function
'check_valid': 'result' may be used uninitialized
Bug 797676 - Register displays amount in transaction currency...
instead of register currency.
Other repairs or enhancements not marked as bugs:
[window-reconcile] when reconciling, warn on splits having a
reconcile date > statement_date
[window-reconcile] when inputing statement_date, warn if it's after today
[find-transactions] add search for reconciled date
Show transaction value, not amount, for registers with subaccounts.
If the register has subaccounts in different currencies and a
transaction has splits in more than one, the transaction will
incorrectly appear to be unbalanced if we total amounts because the
balancing logic works on split values.
Revert "Bug 797659 - Liabilities in budget report no longer calculate
correctly"
Reverted for snap release. Not tested thoroughly yet.
Add instance argument to Session constructor in python bindings.
Enables a python console to connect to the running GnuCash's session.
Make python console less noisy without --debug.
Provide locals and globals of calling context to the python console's
shell on shell init
Make pycons/ishell.py compatible with Python 3 and current IPython
[eguile-utilities] prevent crash in balsheet-eg.scm
[eguile] escape-html -> gnc:html-string-sanitize
[qif-to-gnc] Properly mark intra-QIF internal transfers.

When sizing some register columns take account of 'Tot' being added.
Take account for the pop up button border in the register.
Change the date sample so it has the maximum text width possible
[new-owner-report] bugfix: balance row needs variable linked cols
Improve translations by scriptedly removing the removed colon suffix.
[report-utilities] bugfix: aging-list was incorrect. off-by-1 error.
[report-utilities] bugfix: overpayment works for AP accounts.
Swap the buttons around on the Budget Open dialogue
Swap the OK and Cancel buttons so they conform to the normal layout.
[report-utilities] bugfix: fix overpayment detection
For 1 payment to >1 invoices, previously would miscalculate
overpayment.
[budgets.scm] Budget reports handle both natural & reversed budgets.
This change is protected by a Feature: Using it will prevent the file
from being opened by earlier versions of GnuCash.
[gnc-budget-view.c] totals - 5 fundamental types
previous showed income/expense/transfers/totals budget totals, of
uncertain meaning. now shows income/expense/asset/liability/equity
budget totals. The 5 lines also become sensitive to the global
sign-reverse property.
bindings-python - drop references to gnucash-env
We no longer ship a gnucash-env script, directly use python(3)
instead
[balsheet-pnl] fix: single-date balsheet missed printing date
[balsheet-pnl] fix: hide Equity sections when not needed
* If currencies are not converted, Unrealized Gains are meaningless.
Hide them. * If there are no income/expense accounts, retained
earnings will be nil. Remove row.
Ignore trailing noise on imported transaction account numbers.
AQBanking6 uses a separate method for retrieving account numbers for
account info and transactions, where the transactions method can have
additional characters, most often the ISO4217 currency code. That
results in match failures when importing. As a work-around, compare
only the length of the account-info-generated online id when
comparing it to the transaction-generated one. Note that this is only
a partial solution: At least one German bank also appends characters
to the transaction-generated bank id and that will still cause the
match to fail.
[dialog-payment] Add warning label if payment is unattached
Completing a payment for a customer without associating with an open
invoice is allowable and is used for prepayments. Enable a warning to
inform that the payment does not have an invoice/bill document attached.
[aging] update error reporting
This error handling was for transactions in APAR accounts whereby
Transaction Currency != Owner Currency. An example is a manually
entered transaction, then assigned as payment to a customer with a
different currency. Update to modern API calls. Show the culprit
split details. Fixed example output: IGNORING TRANSACTION! Invoice
Owner: [None:] Transaction:Txn<d:28/10/19> Splits are:
Split<d:28/10/19,acc:Current,amt:$150.00,val:£150.00>
Split<d:28/10/19,acc:AR,amt:$0.00,val:-£150.00> Transaction
Currency:GBP Client Currency:AUD

report: https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=797400
[average-balance] show monetaries instead of numbers in data table
UK VAT template: replace obsolete EEC and EC by EU
Implements the presentation of static optical TAN challenges (photoTAN
and QR) inside the enter TAN dialogue.
[budget] fixcrash: fix crasher for some periods
eg. the following combo would previously crash: - periods from next
to current - use accumulated amounts
[budget] fixcrash: prevent crash if periods start > end
It's silly to input start-period > end-period. Nevertheless handle it
by swapping them instead of crashing. i.e. report budget periods from
end to start.
[budget-flow] fixcrash: exchange-fn needs to specify exchange date
because some exchange-fn *do* require date eg. pricedb-nearest. use
the period end-date for the exchange date.
[portfolio report] There's no report-currency. Use currency.
[window-report] show backtrace when report crashes
* exposes a SCM string last-captured-error containing last backtrace
* when rendering report-crash window, include it

Bug 605602 - precision of Financial Calculator seems to depend on
locale
Bug 746937 - Template transaction splits are loaded in reverse order
and then not sorted before saving. Actually not sorted

committed.
Bug 752395 - Start Day of weekly report doesn't respond to change in
locale
Redefines some functions to ensure weekly grouping in
transaction report obeys locale's start-of-week.
Bug 784623 - GNUCash does not work with sql backend, I can open

Bug 795251 - googletest detection cannot be overridden
Bug 796819 - bad icon with Spanish localization

Bug 797339 - Online banking frame to small
Bug 797349 - "A"ssociate header badly translated.
Note to translators: This is about msgids of the form
"Associate:A". The correct msgstr includes the part up to
the ':' verbatim with only the part to the right of it
tranlated, e.g. "Associate:П" from uk.po. Each such msgstr
has a comment explaining this.
Bug 797353 - Add copyright and release info in appdata file
Bug 797355 - General Journal report seems to be off balance
Previously, for general-journal, each split was being

Set a FinTS product version key when the installed AQBanking supports it.

accelerator.

Correctly parse decimal values between 0 and -1 (e.g. -0.5) in register
