I think pretty much most if not all reports have the 'Accounts' tab in 'Options' where you select which accounts you want to report on. (the 'Account Report' being the one exception I can think of, since the account is already specified) You need to click the Options button on the toolbar, the

Hmm is right.  I just tried to duplicate the issue and couldn't.  It must be something a little more subtle, or GC got into some bad state. On 3/5/22 12:53, john wrote: Hmm. I have for many years kept my books in an encrypted disk image (dmg) that I back up on Google Drive. After a restart I

And on that note, I highly stress to anyone getting started (or even old hands) to not try to artificially combine receipts for convenience. You could if you wanted to, but I guarantee, you'll want to 'refactor' some of those line items one day, or wish you could. Just enter receipts as mult
