Was nimmt man unter #Linux für ein bisschen #Buchhaltung und Rechnungen schreiben? #GNUCash ist eine Riesenkanone, ich hab nur Spatzen. Ich mache nur einfache EÜR und schreibe eine Handvoll Rechnungen an Privatpersonen im Monat. Aktuell nutze ich #LibreOffice Calc für Buchhaltung und schreibe Rechnungen mit #LaTeX. Letzteres würde ich gern automatisieren. Serienbrief wäre eine Option, aber vielleicht gibt's da was Besseres. Steuern mache ich mit Elster, das bleibt auch so.

Thanks for asking the question, and thanks for suggesting #gnucash

Has anyone experience with other #foss #business #accounting tools, especially if they're #accountant recommended?

There are lots of blogs on the subject (eg. itsfoss.com/open-source-accoun ) but that's not the same as an accountant recommendation!

I thought #Apache #OfBiz sounded great, not least because it has web videos! m.youtube.com/user/ofbiz

It's FOSS · 12 Best Open Source Accounting SoftwareWant to use an open-source software for accounting? These are some of the best options.

Converting my #KMyMoney data to #GnuCash via massive #QIF files exports then imports, is an excruciatingly horrible process [despite the undoubted sophistication of the GnuCash qif importer, the process still involves a huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuge amount of tedious manual labour (data matching & re-categorisation), due to the substantial data structure paradigm differences between these two finance programs]. It has taken me many many days, long long days, including said all-nighter, & the process is not yet finished.

I'm doing this amount of work pretty much on a leap of faith, & atm still don't know, once i can then fully directly compare functions & features of both apps side by side, each working with my own data not just superficial samples, if it will have been worth it... ie, atm it is certainly not yet a done deal that i am formally changing my default app to GC from KMM. As a minimum the obstacles i still need to determine if i can live with or otherwise invent a workaround for, include:

  • no #Tags in GC [i use these extensively in KMM]
  • an apparent serious bug in GC's pop-up UI for scheduled transactions due or imminent
  • transaction memo-space in GC is simply woeful.
  • customisable Reports. When i last used GC well over a decade ago, it was just terrible for its reporting capability. I am excited to find that with so much more development effort & time elapsed, its Reports are now substantially better [including my mandatory would-be-a-showstopper-if-still-unavailable customisable forward-projection linear account balance trajectory plots]. I've not yet explored whether its other plots also meet my needs, or if KMM might remain better here.

Pulled an accidental all-nighter, due to Fighting The Good Fight. Then grabbed a few hours kip in bed from 0830 - 1400. Consequently, today... There Shall Be Coffee!

Fwiw, here, FtGF took the form of foolishly embarking on the exceedingly unwise project, after ~13 years using #KMyMoney [which itself came to be after a decade or so of #Quicken], of exporting all its accounts as a series of #QIF files, then attempting to import them all into #GnuCash. What could possibly go wrong?

Plenty! 😱
