*Bug 764245* <https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=764245>
-multi-column reports include incorrect sub-reports

Just to save double-work:
Is this something that you are already close to resolve?

Hi Carsten,

Feel free to jump in. I still haven't gotten around to it.

My intention to fix this was to introduce uuids for report instantiations as
well and save those with each saved report instance. Then these numbers can be
used in the multi-column report as well.

As said on the bug report, since this breaks the current save/load interface
we'll need to increase the saved-reports file's version number.

But perhaps you have a better idea.

Geert


The major fail that I reported has been fixed, I can see there is some tidying to be done.

Geert: since you are looking at
         .gnucash
which contains
        saved-reports-2.4
is it worth splitting out
        saved-reports-2.4
into component reports in a sub directory ?

That is the very obvious way I kept rebuilding
        saved-reports-2.4
when it was breaking frequently.

i.e. should the relocation of .gnucash include a rethink of
        saved-reports-2.4
because in some situations it can become unwieldy (think multiple sets of side by side charitable accounts and that is before you get to the budget reports!)

P.S. I'm not moaning, the multi-column reports are much more reliable than when I reported them.

P.P.S. reading through
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=764245
again, I'm fairly sure something made it better, I just can't remember what it was right now and it isn't obviously in the bug thread.
