Version 4.0 of the widely known financial accounting program GnuCash has been released.
(income, expenses, bank accounts, stocks) It features a hierarchical account system, can split a single transaction into multiple parts, and directly imports account data from the internet. It is based on professional accounting principles, comes with a set of standard reports, and allows the creation of custom reports, both new and modified from the supplied ones.
Significant changes include a command-line tool for performing a number of functions outside the graphical interface, support for accounts payable and receivable, improvements in translations, and much more.
New features:
A new standalone executable module, gnucash-cli, allows for simple operations from the command line, such as updating prices in the book. There is also the option to generate reports from the command line.
The column width used in invoices, bills, and employee vouchers can now be saved by default for each document type.
When deleting accounts, it is checked that the target accounts to which the balance is split have the same type.
Support for localization has been added to the Python API.
A new transaction association dialog allows for setting, modifying, and removing associations.
Associations can now be added to invoices. The actual association, when present, is added as a link that appears under the notes.
The attachment 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 multiple files simultaneously. This does not work on MacOS.
The new Multicolumn report menu contains the old user-defined multicolumn report and a new Dashboard report, which includes income and expense reports, a chart of income and expenses, and an account summary.
The Income-GST report now includes support for UK and Australian Value Added Taxes. Report options have been changed from source invoices to sales and purchase source invoices to ensure proper capital purchase reporting. This is incompatible with previous versions of the report and will require restoring saved configurations.
The OFX import, which contains balance information, will now prompt for immediate reconciliation by passing the balance information in the file to the reconciliation information.
Support for AQBanking version 6. This is necessary to support the new FinTS protocol from the European Payment Services Directive (PSD2).
