Derek, Some of the standard reports automatically update the account selection when they are invoked. See, for example, the Advanced Portfolio report, which automatically selects new commodity accounts each time it is run. My recollection was that standard reports based on a class of

Is it possible that you are missing an account in one of the reports? For example, if you ran the report, then added an account, that new account would not be included by default in the report if you refresh it. You need to manually add the new account into the report. This also applies to
