The GnuCash development team announces GnuCash 3.7, the eighth release of the 3.x stable release series.

Changes

Between 3.6 and 3.7, the following bugfixes were accomplished:

The following fixes and improvements were not associated with bug reports:

  • New feature: Multiselection in the import transaction matcher. Use control-left-click, shift-left-click, or click-and-drag to select multiple unmatched transactions to match them with a single account, then right-click to bring up a single-item context menu sith "Assign Transfer Account".
  • Set a FinTS product version key when the installed AQBanking supports it.
  • Change translatable strings with context to use the modern gettext three-parameter function instead of the ':' hack.
  • Stop duplicate entries for the invoice taxtable cell.
  • Do not log an error when no default tax tables are set.
  • Fix cmake dependency tree so that make/ninja check works without having to first run make/ninja.
  • Remove the accelerator for the Clear buttons on the Loan Calculator because they were all the same and also the same as the Close button's accelerator.
  • Change the transfer account notation for single-split transactions in basic view from "--Split Transaction--" (they're obviously not) to "None".
  • Correctly parse decimal values between 0 and -1 (e.g. -0.5) in register caclulations: The negative sign was being stripped.
  • Require CMake 3.5 or later for all platforms.
  • Rework the building of libgtest.a from source when the builder sets GTEST_ROOT or the distro doesn't provide a pre-build one.
  • Fix crash when trying to display a tooltip in the register split view when a split has focus.
  • Fix repeated requests to create a new account when you click No.
  • Suppress bogus error when creating a new account from register split view.
  • Fix price conversion report crashes in Balance Sheet PNL and all average balance calculations.
  • Upgrade the Budget reports to support accumulated accounts.
  • Redefine gnc:debug to use QofLog instead of writing to stdout.
  • Change the Balance Sheet PNL account depth to mean the deepest *selected* account rather than the deepest account.
  • Set the Owner Report date option to default to today.
  • Much Scheme cleanup and more testing.

WARNING Do not try to use the github-generated files labelled "Source Code". They have not been processed with swig and will not build.
  • You can also checkout the sources directly from the git repository as described here.

    • To compile GnuCash from the source code by yourself, you will need at least Gtk+ 3.10, Guile 2.0, Boost 1.54, WebKitGtk 2.4, and GoogleTest 1.7.0. In addition you will need SWIG 2.0.10 if compiling from git. Please consult the README.dependencies file in the sources for the exact list of dependencies and versions.
