Yes I had thought about symlinks too but I wasnt sure if it would work as expected. In my case, since reports are saved one time - I doubt I will need to modify them again soon. Hence for me copying is better option. Amish. On Friday 13 October 2017 09:04 PM, Geert Janssens wrote: I'm not

Instead of keeping the program and data on two machines, how about saving it all on a cloud storage and just install GC on the two machines.. On Oct 10, 2017 12:20 PM, "Carsten Rinke" wrote: > Hi Ben, > > what do you mean by machine specific? > > If you transfer your gnucash data file betwee

Default location for saved reports on Windows 10 is "C:\Users\\.gnucash\saved-reports-2.4" I'm pretty sure I've just copied that same file across to my Ubuntu Linux installation as well - will check tonight and see where it is for Linux. Cheers Dave H. On 11 October 2017 at 09:23, David Carlson

There is a section in the GnuCash FAQ about what files are where for the various OS's. IIRC there is a .gnucash directory under ~user or some such which can be copied and pasted into another machine, even under a different OS but that would overwrite whatever is there. Do not try that without bac

Hi Ben, what do you mean by machine specific? If you transfer your gnucash data file between machines, I thought it should also possible to transfer the saved-reports-2.x file between the machines. Agreed, a combined file would make the transfer handling easier, but if you keep in mind always

Add that to the wish list. I often switch from one computer to another and keep the same version of GnuCash on each machine, however, the saved reports are machine specific. It would be nice to link the reports to the gnucash data file. Not sure how it works internally right now. ben On Tue, Oct

Hello I have been using Gnucash from long now and I have been using reports option from long too. However I face one particular issue. I have two companies, so I have two gnucash files. Each having similar asset accounts (called IGST / CGST / SGST) and similar reports to be generated on th
