Hi Cristian,
Second patch review below. General comment: good to see the increased use of DocBook XML tags!
In this patch, I realise most of the content is copied over from the Guide. So probably the best way would be to commit it as it is in BugZilla now, then commit another revision on top of that with improvements as below. Or you could incorporate everything into a single patch–upto you.
Regards,
Yawar

This sentence doesn’t make any sense. It’s probably been in there a long time :-) I think it should be: … How many days before the due date to warn about bills coming due….
Unless GnuCash really can warn you in the future…. :-)
