Chris,

Could you explain what the error is telling me with regard to option 7 and 
option 2? Perhaps the error might be refactored to give the user a little more 
context? Like, maybe to say which option is in play? 

Furthermore, I'm not sure what you're asking me to provide. Do you want the 
entire section of saved-reports.2-8 for this report? I imagine I could locate 
that...

David

This warning originates from planned upgrades to options.


If a new date option eg report date "next Easter" is created, the saved options 
will try store its representation, and an older version cannot understand it. 
This error message is meant to handle whereby previously it would crash. I'm 
not sure why it would trigger when upgrading version.


To help investigate please feel free to share the relevant saved-reports 
section... I am sure there's no sensitive data within an asset piechart 
saved-report.

Hello,

I’m a longtime user on the Mac, now transitioning over to a PC. 

I copied over my various settings files (alas! Account colors are not among 
these!) and saved reports files. Gnucash fires up, loads my data, and the 
“Saved reports configurations” are listed.

However, when I try to run one of these reports, I get the following odd error:

“This report was saved using a later version of GnuCash. One of the newer 
multifunction options ‘7’ is not available, fallback to option ‘2’.”

This error repeats numerous times (I lost count), after which the report loads.

I have no idea which option was using ‘7’, and I do not know what fallback 
option ‘2’ is.

Interestingly, the windows version in which this error occurs is 3.5. The Mac 
version I had previously was (I believe) 3.4. So, I have a difficult time 
understanding how this report can have been created in a *later* version of 
GnuCash.

Any insight would be welcome. For fullest clarity, the custom report is based 
on the Asset Piechart report.


TIA,
David
