[GNC] Currency symbol (INR) not showing on Tax Invoice report

[Deva -]

Thanks Christopher.

Went back and tried the Printable/Easy/Fancy invoice reports and the currency symbol shows up fine on those reports. So it’s only the Tax Invoice report that has a problem.

My preference still remains the Tax Invoice report because it allows me to change column headings. For instance, I have renamed the column header for “Action” on my report to “SAC” because this is the place I capture the GST related code that’s mandatory in our invoice. Since Printable/Easy/Fancy invoices don’t allow me change column headers, I have to use Tax Invoice for now.

However, following up on the wiki links in Frank’s mail further, I overlooked an aspect in the second wiki, where it says I can set the currency symbol to any text I want in the security/currency editor. So I went into that currency editor and changed the rupee symbol to just text - INR. Now instead of the symbol, it shows the text INR for all amounts on the invoice. I can work with this for now, but the problem remains a puzzle.

Only flip side is, now even my account tree page shows INR instead of the rupee symbol and takes up more column space. I kinda liked the symbol display, but alas we live to fight the battle another day!

Thank you all for your help. Much appreciated.

Cheers.

This seems to be the eguile-based "tax invoice" report.

Perhaps you can try the other "Printable/Easy/Fancy Invoice" reports and let us know?

With MacOS it'll be very difficult to investigate this; usually we'd advocate 'bisecting' i.e. try various releases until the exact breaking one is found, but I'm not sure this is feasible with MacOS.

Sorry, and good luck.

Hello,

I am on GnuCash 3.4, Mac OS 10.13.6 (High Sierra).

Please see attached for a sample invoice I generate out of GnuCash based on the Tax Invoice report (sensitive data has been masked). Today was the first time I tried to run this report from GnuCash 3.4 and I noticed that the INR currency symbol is showing up as a missing symbol icon.

Any suggestions on how to fix this?

I tried turning off the display of currency symbol in the report via Edit->Report Options, but didn’t see anything to that effect.

Cheers,
Deva
