That data is managed via GSettings, which on Linux uses dconf as back-end. I
have no idea how dconf manages its internal database unfortunately. It's tied
into dbus but that's a black box for me.

in the .gcm file. Same for invoice number.

Liz,
The saved reports are in /home/liz/.local/share/gnucash/saved_reports2.8.
GNC_USERDATA_DIR is the location for the user preferences data and does not
refer to the users gnucash data files which are always stored in a location of

I’m sure this is really simple but I’m not successful.
I installed gnucash on new computer but I can’t find an option to
import all my old accounts from old computer. I’m sure this has been
asked before, but I can’t find any instructions on how to do it.

Several option:
1. If you remember where you stored your gnucash data file on the old computer,
use your
system's file manager to copy it to the new computer (either via a network
share, cloud drive
or usb stick. Then on the new computer, start gnucash and use File->Open to
