Chris, If I save reports from GnuCash 3.4 on Linux Mint Tara (Ubuntu 18.04), the reports are saved in /home/<user>/.local/share/gnucash/saved-reports-2.8 and I have verified this contains the report config which I saved. This is where I expected to find them based on the description in https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Configuration_Locations. I am not sure what the 2.4 in your case and 2.8 in my case actually refer to. The wiki says they are related to GnuCash versions but not obviously the version which is running. David Cousens Hi David, Geert answered this 6/6/2018: 2.8, not 2.4. If not 2.8 file is found, gnucash 3 and up will search for a saved-reports-2.4, but it will only save to saved-reports-2.8. I haven't updated the wiki as it was recently changed to say: saved-reports-x.y presumably to ensure it doesn't quickly become outdated. Personally, I would prefer if it was more specific. I am finally about to release my BackupGnuCash java app 1.3.0, now updated for GnuCash 3. As it is difficult to tell if a configuration file location has been overridden by an environment variable somewhere, I've taken the tack of only looking for configuration files to backup in the default locations.
