Request Summary:
It would be nice to have some kind of hashtag management.
Enable the ledger owner to make hashtags show or not when posting transactions;
To change existing transactions' their hashtags.
(something like the labels idea in gmail.)

Request Summary:
I'd like to be able to do the 4 basic math operations when typing an entry, 
instead of having to type an exact a value, I wish to do something like this:
  1.5+4.7+2 money food


Notes:
There's a potential ambiguity when using division and dates. But I'm sure you 
guys can figure out a way to avoid that :D

Most users and professionals utilize a book keeping system to keep track of 
financial records. One way to do this is by utilizing various tools to produce 
reports on financial activity. 

As it stands, Bkper can produce charts and graphs to show financial activity 
based on a specific query, however it does not provide the ability to 
automatically generate and save reports. 

The idea behind this is that at a user specified time (say for instance at the 
end of the week or month) the Bkper system will automatically generator a 
predefined report (defined by the user) and save the report into the Bkper 
system. Not only will these reports be saved so the user can review them later 
they should also be manageable in that I can search out a report for a specific 
time. 

This functionality would be highly useful for users who are trying to view 
their financial history. Instead of having to manually enter hundreds of 
queries to compare activity over a year, it would be nice to compare a few 
monthly reports to get the same effect. 

Cannot access bkper.com due to DNS lookup failure. Confirmed across multiple 
devices on my end.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Create a transaction using the simple one input: e.g. 12.5 money food
2. Notice that you typed a "wrong" value and attempt to fix it by clicking the 
transaction.
3. Type in the new value 13.5 and click "Save"

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Surprisingly you can't save because you have not entered a description (that 
you didn't have in the first place)!
I would expect to have my updates saved without being annoyed about a 
description.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Web - Google Chrome Version 43.0.2357.134 (64-bit) on Archlinux 4.1.2-2-ARCH

Please provide any additional information below.
Description should not be a required field in any scenario.

Please search through existing issues first to ensure that the bug has
not already been reported.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.edit an existing transaction
2.paste the following description: #atendimentos Carlos Drummond de Andrade


What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
1.the html input is not proper rendered. 
2.even after reseting the input and pasting the string from a text editor (ansi 
support) you still you can´t get rid of the redering problem.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
No idea
Chrome version: 44....

In the bkperApp API when I have a transaction 
I would like to get the reference about the poster. 

For example: 
transaction.getPosterId()  (Google account Id would be great)
transaction.getPosterEmail()

This would work simular to transaction.getId() 

Like this it is possible to automate stuff related to this. 

When one user records the draft and another user confirms (post the 
transaction), the user column changes to the one who confirmed and the post 
date changes to the datetime of confirmation. 
This behavior loses important information (draft recorder and time) for the 
user who maintain the data. Would be good to have all those information 
available for the Ledger admin.

Open Financial Exchange (OFX) has been around for a very long time and is 
therefore supported from MANY financial institutions (it's what Quicken was 
built upon). Many banks still carry this legacy API around providing a great 
interface for obtaining recent transactions. 

More information can be found here: 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_Financial_Exchange

A quick and easy way to add support for users to post bank account transactions 
to their ledger would be providing integration with OFX. Users can easily find 
the information they need through a directory: 
http://www.ofxhome.com/index.php/home/directory

The idea behind this is that a user can 'add' a bank account to their ledger. 
This would require filling out all applicable details required to initiate an 
OFX session with a bank. This information would be saved (except for the 
password which should be required whenever a request is initiated) and used for 
future transactions. A user would request the recent transactions and be given 
the opportunity to import them into Bkper.

This feature is what makes institutions like Mint very popular. While not as 
inclusive as Mint, it would still be a very powerful tool for users using Bkper 
as a double entry system to keep track of their assets (by reducing the effort 
required to manually search and transcribe transactions). It would be a good 
tool for Bkper.

Provide all interfaces also em Spanish language

If you live on the border of two countries, or regularly travel, it's normal to 
conduct transactions in different currencies.

Please enable recording of the transaction currency, and then move on to 
transactions with multiple currencies, per:

http://www.mscs.dal.ca/~selinger/accounting/tutorial.html#Table-4.4

I cannot seem to open the Bkper side panel from Google Sheets anymore. Each 
time I open from Google Sheets Add-on for Bkper under "open", the Bkper side 
panel fires up but it is blank after that and not showing anything any more.

Before I could export transactions. Now, I cannot see anything at all.

Please see enclosed file.

Thanks.

Currently a user is only able to view data of a group of accounts in graphical 
format. In other words, all information regarding a group query (I.E 
=group:'Assets') is only show in the form of various charts and graphs. 

A useful feature for users would also be the ability to view a list of all 
transactions that have occurred within that group. This list would look just 
like the default list view when doing account queries (I.E acc:'Rent'). 

A preferred way to implement this would be to allow queries like the following: 
group:'Utilities'

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Attach an file on the main input text;
2. Click on the red arrow to edit the new draft;
3. type any keys on the description box;

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
i expect to see mu hashtags on the autocomplete list

I'm not sure if this is the road Bkper is wanting to go down, but compared to 
other tools of this nature this is the one feature I see missing (case in 
point: Mint, GNUCash, etc.). 

Ideally this would be implemented in the same manner tools like GNUCash do it: 
Provide an option for putting a monthly and/or yearly budget on existing 
permanent accounts. Provide an option to review current monthly transactions 
and how they compare to your budgeted amount (along with an overall view of the 
budget totals). Provide notifications on exceeding budgets. 

These are just the basic starting steps on integrating budgeting into Bkper. 
Thoughts are welcomed.

For example: a restaurant bill came to $50 including $5 in tax. 

The $5 would be a debit into an ITC (input tax credit) account, $45 would be 
debit to Meal expense account and the $50 total would credit a payable account 
(or bank account)

Request Summary:

French translation is now online,
let me know any translation problème by quoting the words and maybe with url 
or screenshot
Suggestion would be appreciated


Notes:
Provide any additional information which might be useful here.

By now, the system only allows to confirm a draft one by one, or to autopost by 
turning on the autopost mode on configuration.

Would be nice to select many transactions at a time and post with one click.

Another nice feature would be to turn the autopost only for certain record 
actions, for example, by clicking on record with the "shift" of "alt" button 
pressed.

Greetings,

The following query is failing to return any results on my end:

'=#gas acc:"Home Savings" #rent'

As well as:

'=#gas #rent'

But this works:

'=#gas'

Is this a bug or is in intended to not be able to search multiple hash tags and 
accounts together? 

As stated here https://code.google.com/p/bkper-issues/issues/detail?id=2, there 
is a lack of documentation for recurring transactions.

Please support more date formats, esp the ISO8601 standard YYYY/mm/dd format.

It will be useful because a transaction sometimes involve an invoice and a 
payment proof/receipt.

Please search through existing issues first to ensure that the bug has
not already been reported.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.Entering an amount with 4 decimal places screws up input
2.Entering a huge number beyond 2,100,000,000 does not register


What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
7.5569 -> 75,569.0000
Entering more than 2,100,000,000 gives and Invalid Amount Message

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Online version of Bkper and on Windows 8.1 using Chrome 64 bits


Please provide any additional information below.

The above problem is annoying. Also, it would be good to include up to 8 
decimal places so that we can make accounting for bitcoin and other crypto 
currencies.

Crypto currencies often go beyond to tens of billion of units because of their 
small values.

Some accounts only allows me to download the account activities in a QFX 
format, instead of the standard OFX format. 

It would be nice to have an QFX processor.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.Attach anyname.json file in a transaction

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I would expect one of two possible responses:
  - Success: file accepted
  - Fail: file not supported

I got a weird error: Only image files are supported, 

Strangely a file name pointing to C:\fakepath\items.json seems to be attached,
but I have no idea what you mean by C:\fakepath 

;-)

I´m using G Chrome 44

When I update my sheet by bkper add-on, the description of the columns change.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Open the query wizard by clicking the query box dropdown
2. Pick an account or group and choose any dates criteria
3. Click the search button

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I'd expected to see the entries filtered by the account and date criteria 
provided. Instead the account part gets dropped and just the dates are used to 
filter. The account info gets removed even from the query field.
If I type in everything in the textbox the query works. It's just the wizard 
that fails. Which also makes it not possible to save such queries.


What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
I'm accessing on the Web, using Google Chrome Version 43.0.2357.132 (64-bit)
on ArchLinux 4.0.7-2-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT

The following query works inside of the Bkper application:

'after:$m before:$m+1'

However, when attempting to use the same query for making a balance report, an 
error is thrown:

TypeError: Cannot read property "length" from null. (line 137, file "Report", 
project "BkperApp")

The code that generated the above error:

q = "=after:$m before:$m+1"
r = ledger.getBalanceReport(q)

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.proceed the regular bkper app authentication on chrome
2.browse http://bkper.com

What is the expected output? 
#be redirected to the product home page

What do you see instead?
#I´m redirected to the site home page.
#I would like to review the product license and product plans - but I can´t.

As workaround I go to incognito windows (ctrl-shift-n).

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
GChrome 44

Please provide any additional information below.

The current methods of exporting data out of Bkper only include exporting as a 
CSV document and exporting queries utilizing the Google Docs extension.

Some users may find it useful to have a third method of exporting monthly 
financial reports. These reports would be all inclusive in detailing account 
and transaction activity for the whole month. Each group should be broken down 
into accounts with their respective starting and ending values and each account 
should include all transactions for that month.

The purpose of this report is for a user to be able to have one document that 
shows all data for a given month so that they may store it for historical 
purposes.

At the current time a user is not able to append an attachment to a transaction 
after it has been added to the system, even if it has not yet posted. 

Requesting the ability to be able to upload and attach an attachment to a 
transaction even after it already exists in the system. 

If I provide a date in future, says 16/06, its considering last year, not the 
current.

This is cumbersome. It would be far simpler if consider current year always.

The user should have a ability to share a Ledger with other people, but just 
for recording purposes, not letting them to access any information of the 
Ledger.

This is very useful when setting a Expense Reimbursement process, where you 
have a lot of different users recording to the same Ledger on the go, to keep 
track and calculate their expenses and the reimbursements, but not letting them 
to see the expenses of each other.

Sometimes we delete some drafts by mistake. 
Would be good if drafts go to trash instead of deleted directly, so we can 
recover it.

Google is closing Google Code per [1]; please migrate this bug tracker to 
another service. I suggest GitHub for the moment.

In August, Google Code will become readonly.

http://google-opensource.blogspot.ca/2015/03/farewell-to-google-code.html

At the current time a user must manually add transactions (unless using a 
third-party script) each month, even if a specific transaction occurs on a 
monthly basis. This is problematic for businesses who have multiple reoccurring 
transactions and do not wish to have to keep up with posting them every month.

A proposed solution is to implement a feature to allow a user to add 
reoccurring transactions into the systems. These transactions would have a 
clear path of cash flow (credit/debit), an amount, and a reoccurring date (I.E 
every 15th of the month, or twice a week on Friday's). 

An enhancement to the above suggestion would be for Bkper to automatically 
suggest reoccurring transactions based on the user's recorded habits. However, 
this SHOULD NOT be the only means to add a reoccurring transaction and the 
system should only suggest the transaction and not force it.

An easy to user interface should be provided to manage these transactions so a 
user can edit and/or remove them on the fly. 

What steps will reproduce the problem?
0. [email protected] # my inbox address
1. EMAIL=... # my google address
2. In linux, email the OFX transactions on the command line: metasend -F $EMAIL 
-b -t $D -s "OFX 2015/01" -m application/octet-stream -f 2015-01.ofx 
3. Transactions do not appear :-(.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
OFX transactions should have been imported by email. They never appear.

Would be nice if the system avoid duplicates when recording transactions.

A good rule to find what is duplicate is a transactions with same date, 
description and amount.

Request Summary:

I would love to not have to have a Google Plus account to use bkper… I 
don’t feel it necessary.


Notes:
Provide any additional information which might be useful here.

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1.navigate to : http://help.bkper.com/article/9-transaction-status

2.scroll down the page

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

google drawing referred by: 

https://docs.google.com/a/nimbustecnologia.com.br/drawings/d/sjlryml_DqGzNl9IFSz
H1AA/image?w=373&h=352&rev=47&ac=1

requires permission to be displaed

Would be good if the user could fetch the latest transactions to mobile.

Specially when reinstalling the app, the user misses the local data, that is 
very helpful for autocomplete.

By now the system only allows user to remove/revert one transaction at a time.

Would be good to have a way to select many drafts and remove all at once.
