Nice find.

On the report start date issue, are you using a specific custom date or one of 
the presets?

Mine are all set to ’start of accounting period’ and my book’s accounting 
period is set to ’start of current year’. I’m not seeing any loss of start 
dates.

Perhaps some other date setting is where the issue lies.

Regards,
Adrien
