Description Bruce Leary 2008-01-15 14:33:00 UTC 
Social Security pays on the n'th Wednesday of the month.  It would be nice to have an option on the monthly schedule for n'th day-of-week such as the 2nd Tuesday or 4th Wednesday.  It would also be nice to be able to specify last day-of-week of the month such as last Monday or last Saturday.

This specifically does exist in 2.2.x; see options at the end of the list for Monthly frequency.

I stand corrected about the last day-of-week of the month.  However, the other part of my request is not currently available as far as I know.  Should I reenter this enhancement request?

No, this one will suffice.
Comment 5 Robert Stocks 2008-05-29 17:26:27 UTC 
Additionaly the last weekday of the month would be usefull as that is when I get paid. Not a saturday or a sunday

Thank you for taking the time to explain your enhancement request.

The described enhancement is a good proposal and would be an advantage for the software. However, as a volunteer-driven project with limited resources, the GnuCash developers have their own priorities about the features which are most likely being worked on in the near future. In that sense, the current GnuCash developers decided not to work on your proposed feature in the next 4-6 months. In case you would like to have this feature implemented in any case, you have the following option: 1. Start to program in gnucash yourself - see http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Development . 2. Convince someone who is not yet part of the GnuCash team to join the team and implement your feature. 3. Pay some of the GnuCash developers to implement your feature - ask on the mailing list gnucash-devel@gnucash.org in that case. Thank you very much.

Feel free to file other bugs or enhancement requests that you find, though.
