Re: [GNC] 8.1 Find (^F) set default search preferences?

I don’t know of a way to save search criteria, however, when you do a Find, you get a results tab. If you do a subsequent find, you’ll effectively be narrowing the search results. (because you’re running the find from the results tab, the new find window is using that as the data set) So if

Maf, The transaction report capabilities have changed dramatically between 2.x and 3.x, so the OP would need to be using 3.5 to get those features. But otherwise you are correct. David On April 27, 2019, at 9:29 PM, "Maf. King" wrote: On Saturday, 27 April 2019 15:53:38 BST V. Vatsal via

Priit, I suspect you imported the transactions for Swedbank, and then imported ones from LHV, correct? When you do this, you must ensure that you take the time in the second import to ensure that the transaction from Swedbank to LHV is matched to the transaction from the first import. They
