The current report is for me an important tool for cost analyse. Select a cost center and you see on one side the cost elements and on the other the related cost objects. The only issue: It is in no way related to "cash". So we should probably rename it.

Right, https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kapitalflussrechnung lists 3 different structures and more in the discussion. If we want to create this, we should group them by default according IFRS https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IAS_7 with options to adjust the structure. > I really would like to have input from users with actual accounting > backgrounds on > 1. what a cash flow report really should display > 2. whether our current cash flow report actually does that or is in effect a > totally different kind of report with a misleading name. > > Geert Frank _______________________________________________ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user If you are using Nabble or Gmane, please see https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Mailing_Lists for more information. ----- Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
