Instead of addressing your problem/question in terms of a specific
answer, I strongly suggest you (or any new gnucash user) EXPLORE all the
options available to you for every report you intend to use. Things like
show totals before or after (or both) are OPTIONS.
Gnucash is a little strange in that you don't select options first.
Instead you run the report "default" and the use edit=>report options to
bring up the options menu(s). You then change whatever you want to
change and then "apply" these changes. For example, an Income Statement
<<aka Statement of Revenues and Expenses aka P & L >> is ALWAYS being
run for specific start and end dates so you'll want to set those even if
otherwise happy with defaults. But like I said, how you want subtotaling
also options.
So for each of the reports you intend to use, try out all your options
until you find the combination right for you.

Hello,
I am using GnuCash 5.10. This is my initial effort to move to GnuCash. I
entered all of my opening balances against the Opening Balances account as is
normal. When I look at my Accounts, I see all of the correct numbers, and I see
the totals of the sub-accounts in the parent placeholder accounts as expected.
Great.
I set the reporting period to last year (1/1/23 - 12/31/23).
When I run the Income Statement or the Balance Sheet reports, I am seeing the
following problems.
It shows the detail current asset accounts correctly, but the parent Current
Assets placeholder shows zero.
The parent of Current Assets (Assets) shows zero too.
However, at the end of the Assets section, Total Assets is correct.
The same reporting error is repeated for Liabilities, Equity, Expenses, etc.
The parent placeholder accounts show correctly on the Accounts tab of GnuCash
but are always zero on the Balance Sheet and Income Statement reports.
Is there any way to fix this?
Thanks!
Blake McBride
