Each account has some behaviours and it's solely based on the account name as of today, I have plans to make these behaviours configurable. But this also requires a lot of work since nearly all the places implicitly assume the behaviour based on the account name. I need to figure out a way to make the changes gradually. Given the amount of work required, this is not an immediate priority.
Thanks for your respond! I am going to using some directives like capture
in ledger or alias
in hledger to replace some account name with the paisa style account name.
But It doesn't work. I am confused
What doesn't work?
capture
directive from ledger manual
The manual said: Ledger will display the mapped payee in print and register reports. maybe capture
directive only works inprint and register reports.
When I use alias
directive, It works in balance report and dashboard
Got it. Paisa uses balance command in the editor page only and csv command to export the data, which is used on all the other pages. If csv command returns Income
, then every other place would work.
So the temporary solution about issue is using alias
directive.
for hledger user, use alias Revenues = Income
for other language user, use statement like alias Vermögen = Assets
(German), alias 资产 = Assets
(Chinese) and so on.
I will close the issue and wish that paisa UI can be translated to other languages in the feature.
I am a hledger user and the Income account in hledger called revenues. I want to use revenues rather than Income. So could Paisa can add a config so that I can match my current account name to the Paisa style account name?
In addition, I am Chinese. So I wish the top level account name in Paisa can support UTF-8 char or CJK char.
