[GNC] [Bug 798864] Budget Revalues for the Income are positive numbers.porting on select reports are wrong

[Richard Lindgren]

Sounds like you understand my problem. However, since I'm not a programmer, I hesitate to tackle this patch. Maybe it is easier than it looks and is probably the best fix? I'm just nervous here.

Let me ask this basic question. When I am creating my Budget, I have assumed this:
        1. All Income values are positive numbers.
        2. All Expense values are negative numbers.

With that being said and used, my reports work for; a) Profit and Loss Report and b) my Budget Report.

Now the question is, where do I go from here?

Richard

candidate patch

Here's a candidate replacement for budget-income-statement.scm, or the patch pasted below. You can overwrite the budget-income-statement.scm somewhere into the Program Files\gnucash\etc...\ (you'll need admin access).

It changes the definition of net-income from simple summation to a recalculation of balances of both income and expense budget amounts. I think this is the correct fix.
