I'm now starting to use the Budget Report and would really like one feature (/it would have been more, but in my research I've found that you can export your reports to HTML which addresses the majority of my printing issues/). I'd like you be able to specify the number of reporting periods when

azalea4va, Your report addresses many of the issues I've had as a new user of the gnucash budget reports. However, I have not been able to successfully install your report. I'm assuming that it will show up under Reports -> Budget as "Budget+ Report", but I cannot see it there or anywhere else

All, I'm trying to create a report with some options that are disabled when others are not selected. Below are my 2 options. When I select the Memo option I get a critical error. Does anyone know why the set_selectable field is null? Am I missing some initialization. CRIT

Hi Nelson, Such is life in the real world. GnuCash is not designed for the real world, just a simplified approximation. GnuCash reports just one main balance. You can get more by using the reconciled, cleared, present, future minimum and total columns in the main Accounts tab, but that is

Hi John, What I am doing today is exactly you are saying. I have a "pending" account and I would record two transfers: - $1 bank-a -> pending - $1 pending -> bank-b postdated by 5 business days. What bothers me with this approach is that when I go online on bank-a I see a different

David, I am well aware that the problem I am raising is not a very common one and want to thank you for your answer. The thing is that I have to work with tens of accounts and each transitory state is extremely important. Imagine that when I have a number of pulls pending on an account becomes
