Hi William

Based on my interpretation of the gnucash-cli --help text, and this Reddit forum post, I don't think that it is possible to pass date parameters to reports from the command line.

https://www.reddit.com/r/GnuCash/comments/mf834b/how_to_use_gnucashcliexe_on_windows_to_run_a/

If you are au courant with Python you could probably achieve a transaction list for a custom date range fairly easily using PieCash:

Good luck!

Update:  I tried also setting a fixed Start Date and end of "Today", as
well as a fixed start and end date.  All configurations give the same
error.  Again, no error in the GUI.

Thanks,

Hello,

I would like to script a report that will show me all transactions on
credit cards since their last closing date.  I'll maintain closing dates
outside of Gnucash.  I have the report set to show me all transactions
since the start of the previous quarter (so it is rolling) through today.
I would then filter out transactions prior to the closing date in
post-processing.

The report runs fine in the GUI, but when I try to run from gnucash-cli I
get the following error:

     ERROR <gnc.engine.sx> Bad End Date: Invalid or before Start Date

The -R show command shows options regarding the dates that ought to work:

General / Start Date: relative . start-prev-quarter
General / End Date: relative . today

So I can't think of a situation where the start of previous quarter would
be missing or before today.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Bill
