| > Correct me if I'm wrong, but I dont think this is a feature in the text-only approaches. I unless I'm missing something, all those features are available to me now. > If one day I need an accountant to review my finances, or if I suffer an audit by the tax man, I can send on the single .gnucash file with all my data. I can do the same with a git repo, or a zipfile. > an accountant/auditor can easily install Gnucash and generate reports with only basic knowledge. I'm not sure I understand the advantage here. A professional could install beancount too, and run the same scripts I do. My real life experience is they don't actually want this level of depth. > Another nice feature is the file linkage features, where I can directly link my payslip pdf files to the gnucash entries. I have folder structure on my GDrive with all of my stored bills, payslips etc. You can link to external documents in Beancount and possibly the others and it's kept in the same archival system: https://beancount.github.io/docs/beancount_language_syntax.h... It looks like I'm not missing out? |
