Hmm...

Okay I tried these:

Liabilities:AP

1. Open register
2. Reports > Account Report

Result - this generated an AP Aging Report, not the usual 'Account Report' one would expect.

Liabilities:AP

1. Open register
2. Reports > Transaction Report

Works as expected

Liabilities:(Other Liability)

1. Open register
2. Reports > Account Report

Get a report titled "Transaction Report" and it does look similar to a Transaction Report, but options are more limited like Account Report, not advanced like Transaction Report, the results are correct, *but* indeed the signs are not honoring the preference. (negative means greater liability)

Either file a bug, and/or just use the Transaction Report to start.

Thank you very much for your answer and sorry for the confusion. I can
confirm that the Transaction Report handles the Debit and Credit values
in the same way the ledger does.

My question was related to the Account Report. When I open an account
ledger and use the Reports menu to generate an Account Report, I am
presented with running balance values that are exactly the opposite of
the values that I get in a comparable Transaction Report.

Please specify the report.

I just tried a Transaction Report on my AP account and it works properly.

I am using GnuCash 4.2 with the option to reverse the balance of credit
accounts (such as Liability) activated. In the ledger of such an account,
GnuCash calculates the balance in the expected manner: Debit transactions
decrease the balance.

When I create a report of such an account using the Reports menu, however,
this behavior changes. In the resulting report, Debit transactions increase
the balance. Is this the expected behavior? And if this is the case: Is
there a workaround that be used to modify it?
