[GNC] 8.1.1. Find Transaction

Hello good folks, I wanted to check if there was a simpler way when using the 'find transaction'feature repeatedly. When searching for transactions it normally involves a batch of invoices or receipts which are not showing withing reports, most often this is due to me selecting incorrect accounts

Saving as SQlite drops the file size down to 10mb from 15mb, unfortunately no noticeable difference with reports via GNC, I assume it needs Python configuring to access DB directly. Ideally it needs to be out of the box, otherwise likely to get in further in to something that long term may not be
