Liquid Ledger Personal Finance specifications

Accounting

• A new “Verify Integrity” command is available in the File menu that can help detect and repair document errors that previously would prevent documents from being saved. The new utility is automatically invoked if an internal data integrity error occurs while saving.
• Previously when creating a new account, the account was missing an opening balance transaction. This has been fixed.

Import and Export

• When running Liquid Ledger on Mac OS X 10.5.6, transactions imported from a QIF file with comma separators (such as “1,234.00”) were being imported as “1.00”. This has been fixed.
• Transactions imported from an OFX file were previously marked as cleared even if the “Mark imported transactions as cleared” checkbox was unchecked in the Advanced Options panel of the Import Assistant window. This has been fixed.
• On the “Select an Account” page, the Import Assistant now does a better job of suggesting the account into which transactions should be imported. For example, if you are importing account activity downloaded from your financial institution in OFX format, the Import Assistant now correctly selects the matching account in your document if possible. Otherwise, it suggests using the account loaded in the frontmost window. Previously, the Import Assistant always suggested importing transactions into a new account.
• Liquid Ledger would sometimes crash in the final stages of importing transactions. This has been fixed.

Interface and Workflow

• Previously when modifying a transaction's date, the transaction would jump to a new position in order to keep transactions sorted. However, the transaction would not remain selected, making it difficult to locate the transaction in its new position. This has been fixed.
• Choosing the “Ungroup Selection” command from the Selection menu previously caused the automatic sorting of transactions during editing to stop working. This has been fixed.
• The “New Group” command now inserts new transaction groups into the currently selected group instead of inserting new groups at the top level.
• Clicking on the disclosure triangle for a transaction group no longer resizes the Name column, which previously had the side-effect of unintentionally activating the horizontal scroll bar.
• When viewing a transaction in the Inspector panel, it was previously not possible to scroll the text within some fields such as the Memo field. This has been fixed.
• Double-clicking an account’s name in the navigation sidebar of the main window now opens the Edit Account Info panel.

Performance

• The application would previously quit unexpectedly after prolonged use due to a memory leak. This has been fixed.

Reports

• Previously when running the Balance Sheet report, the Total Assets and Total Liabilities sections would correctly display their totals; however, some of the accounts that contributed to those totals would be missing when a subgroup such as “Banking” or “Credit Card” contained both home and foreign currency accounts, in which case the entire subgroup would not be displayed. This has been fixed.
• The Income Statement report was previously formatting positive values in parentheses, causing a net income to be misinterpreted as a net loss. This has been fixed.
