Compatibility Notice

In order to allow flatpak users to share preferences with
installations outside of the sandbox we need to change the preference
path from /org/gnucash to /org/gnucash/GnuCash. This release of
GnuCash does that and it will automatically migrate existing
preferences. It does not, however, continue to write preferences to
the old path and it runs the migration only once. If you go back and
forth between GnuCash 4.7 and an older versions you'll have two sets
of preferences, one for GnuCash 4.7 and later and another for GnuCash
4.6 and earlier. This includes the file history list and last-opened
file.

Between 4.6 and 4.7, the following bugfixes were accomplished:

    Bug 87847 - RFE: Create a 'checkbox' cell type
    Bug 766052 - Job report payments wrong when payment contains splits
    Bug 797596 - New-owner - improved representation of payments with multiple
                 non-APAR splits
    Bug 798142 - Tax rate appears as a fraction
    Bug 798180 - Update to macOS Big Sur 11.3 breaks Finance Quote
    Bug 798205 - Some transactions dropped with no apparent cause or warnings
                 for credit card ofx import
                 Do not exclude from import a transaction that has an FITID
                 which matches an already existing split. This is because it
                    (1) may be a coincidence and therefore the transaction
                        needs to be added or
                    (2) could be on a transfer from the account being imported
                        to another bank account which has already been imported,
                        and so needs to be matched, not added.
    Bug 798208 - management fee transactions are ignored on OFX import
    Bug 798211 - Equity statement double calculates unrealized gain
    Bug 798219 - apply/OK truncates exchange rates from 4 to 2 decimal places;
                 enter doesn't
    Bug 798221 - Transfer funds between accounts with different currencies
                 crashes Gnucash on macOS
    Bug 798224 - Scheduled transactions are created with date-entered copied
                 from the template transaction.
    Bug 798229 - GncDate::c_formats is being created and destroyed twice
                 resulting in a double free crash on every exit.
    Bug 798234 - Cut Transaction discards the reference to the description/memo
                 strings so that Paste Transaction will paste uninitialised
                 data (or other strings)
    Bug 798235 - Reconciliation Ending Balance not recalculated the 2nd and
                 subsequent times Statement Date is updated.
    Bug 798237 - Logging during XML file loading degrades performance
                 significantly
    Bug 798238 - "New security" dialog doesn't save the "Display \ 
symbol"
    Bug 798250 - Gnucash permanent hang on save while loading report
    Bug 798256 - Crash in recnFinishCB
    Bug 798298 - Re-imported transactions no longer ignored
    Bug 798303 - account list is sorted wrong by amount
    Bug 798312 - Opening the help for dialogues in the wrong language.

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

    Lots of memory-leaks plugged
    Change the preferences path to org.gnucash.GnuCash to comply with flatpak
       requirements and migrate existing preferences to the new paths. This
       won't provide for automatic sync between a system-installed GnuCash and
       a flatpak one unless the system-installed one is GnuCash 4.7 or later.
       Please see the Wiki for more information and a procedure to convert your
       existing preferences.
    Cleanup - minimal glib=2.56.1 - drop all conditionals on older versions
    Add code to handle ofx files that include transfers between accounts
    During transaction import, ignore splits whose account is not the
       destination account
    Do not drop a potential match just because it has an online_id.
       Now that we don't exclude from import a transaction with an FITID that
       matches an already existing transaction, if one accidentally re-imports
       a transaction, this allows it to be automatically matched against the
       previously imported transaction.
    Add test for Transaction GetDate() in python bindings, pursuant to
       Bug 798284.
    In find customer dialog, add a column for "Shipping Contact" parameter
    Prep early splash screen messages for translation
    Change text for SX preference option 'Review created transactions' to
       better align with existing SX text.
    Fixed an XML backend problem where trying to open a locked file would clear
       the lock even if one didn't ask to, so the next attempt would find the
       file unlocked even if still open in another instance.
    Fix 2 crashes in Generic Transaction Matcher
    Handle very large denominators from Finance::Quote's OpenExchange source
    Update file extension in man pages per mailing list post.
    Changed some option names:
        * From "Show Accounts until level" to "Levels of \ 
Subaccounts"
        * From "Extra notes" to "Extra Notes"
        * From "Report title" to "Report Title"
        * From "Invoice number" to "Invoice Number" to \ 
ensure it matches all
          other invoice reports.
    Fix missing mnemonic keys after changes to GNCAmountEdit
       With the changes to GNCAmountEdit, the way the mnemonic keys are
       associated to the entry widget of the GNCAmountEdit needs to change so
       have created a function gnc_amount_edit_make_mnemeonic_target which does
       the same as GNCDateEdit.
    Fix rounding in Stock Split Assistant to correct earlier commit that rounded
       the share price to that of the currency.
    [Portfolio Reports] Allow share digits to 9 decimal places to match the
       maximum commodity fraction.

Deprecations

    Date options with a time of day setting.
    Removing the only use, an example in hello-world.scm. GnuCash doesn't use
       this value in any of its own report options and the feature will be
       removed in GnuCash 5. Related to bug 798297 Pref "Use 24-hour clock"
       obsolete?.
