Christian,
You are referring to the "Tutorial and Concepts Guide where it says:
"Account for the profit or loss as coming from an Income:Capital Gains or
Expenses:Capital Loss account. " (section 9.7.1.1)" I presume, since the
preferred method of accounting for capital losses may vary according

It's hard wired because that's what the report writer wrote, and was
merged into gnucash, as a voluntary contribution.
It's rather difficult to modify these reports and maintain full
compatibility with everyone who has used them previously and expect the
report output to be predictable. Often
Hi,
isn’t this hard wiring and expecting bad style? Could you make in a way,

Thank you, John and David:
Using an income acount to record the loss solves the issue.
I'm afraid I was misled by the Tutorial and Concepts Guide where it
says: "Account for the profit or loss as coming from an Income:Capital
Gains or Expenses:Capital Loss account. " (section 9.7.1.1).

Yes, when I create a sale transaction on the stock, a capital loss is
calculated automatically by the report and shown as a negative amount in
the Realized Gain column. That's fine by me.
The problem is that when I add a split to record the loss manually on
the Expenses:Capital Loss acount,

Hello,
In my advanced porfolio report, capital losses linked to a stock account are
added to the Income column as if they were dividends.
Could anyone using this report provide some feedback as to whether this also
happens to them? Is there a bug in the report or am I doing something wrong?
