It is strongly recommended to read this guide if you are new to
GnuCash or unfamiliar with accounting concepts.
An immense amount of less-formal documenation, both of
GnuCash itself and its maintenance and
development may be found in the GnuCash

Questions page should be a first stop whenever you
encounter difficulty using
GnuCash.
The primary source of user support is the user mailing list. If you prefer a web forum-like presentation, you can use it via Nabble. One must subscribe before posting, even if using Nabble.
Several of the developers monitor the #gnucash channel at irc.gnome.org. They're usually doing something else, too, and of course aren't always at their computers. Log in, ask your question, and stay logged in; it may be several hours before your question is noticed and responded to. To see if you missed anything check the IRC logs.
The GnuCash web site
has more details on these channels. You will also find pointers there
to additional useful resources such as the bug tracking system.
