Hi Folks,
Thank you for creating this vibrant community. Just started using GNUCash
for by business.
The issue: When building a non-US currency book, I am unable to "Post" a
Vendor bill.
Steps to recreate:
OS: Ubuntu 26.04.1 LTS.
GNUCash version: 5.16
1. If I created the books and selected say CAD (Canadian dollars) as the
currency during the books in the setup wizard.
2. Create a Vendor
3. Create a Job
4. Create a Bill selecting the vendor and the job.
5. Add a few sample entries in the bill
6. Press the Post button.
7. Observe the issue - the "Post to Account" dropdown which usually auto
selects "A/Payable" is now empty and nothing to select. See screenshot 1.
8. Related issue - I tried to press the "New" button next to "Post to
Account" - there the "Account Type" originally shows "A/Payable" (see
screenshot 2) but as soon as I select a parent account for the new account
(irrespective of the currency) the Account Type blanks out with no options
(see screenshot 3).
9. Counter example, if during the setup wizard I leave the currency to USD
I am able to "Post" the bill following the above steps.
Not sure if I am missing something. Thanks in advance for your help.
Regards,
Yazad
