Welcome

Hi there! Welcome to GnuCash 1.6, an easy-to-use, powerful, and reliable personal finance program. This virtually all-new version has an extensive list of features, and if you want to know everything GnuCash can do, check the features section of this manual. However, if you're like us and impatient to get some work done, that can wait until later.

As much as is possible, GnuCash is designed to be intuitive to use. Despite that, getting the most out of GnuCash requires understanding a couple of simple ideas used throughout the program, and used throughout the rest of this manual. Therefore, we highly recommend that you spend a few minutes reading this manual page.
