I'm afraid the previous 'reverse accounts' strategy was flawed. If both *income & expense* accounts are selected for reporting, until about 2.6.19 the strategy was as follows: Total Income: $1000 Total Expenses: $800 Grand Total: $1800..... which is meaningless Now, the report can be as follows, depending on reverse-accounts status: Total Income: $1000 Total Expenses: $800 Grand Total: -$200 The grand total will add *un*reversed amounts, and, bearing in mind income accounts are technically negative, will produce a "Grand Total" of -$200. Instead of figuring out which reverse-amount strategy to follow, I'd recommend enabling 'display/amount=double' which will explicitly place the amount in (IMHO) the correct debit/credit column. The only downside to this is that the 'display/subtotal-table' will then be unavailable. _______________________________________________ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user If you are using Nabble or Gmane, please see https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Mailing_Lists for more information. ----- Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
