In order to use SQL on the Gnucash data, it needs to be saved in that format. This requires the particular backend drivers (sqlite3, MySQL) be installed already for the format to be available as a choice in the Save As dialog. See the installation notes on the wiki for more info. There is no

You could leverage a multi-column report perhaps with a customer report in each column, that will get you invoice & payment detail, but no aggregate totals across all customers. (but each customer would have it’s own total) Then there is the P/Income Statement, but it will show you revenue by

The mapping is done inside the account structure. The best way to handle this is to create a fake OFX import with a bogus account # -- then map that bogus account number to the account you want to reset (the one that is currently bound to your real OFX account #). Then, the next time you import

I have this problem too (starting yesterday). I was going to do a post - then, late in the day, the problem went away! But now it's back again. I wonder if this is a connectivity issue with whatever GNUCash uses for currency sources? (This is hard-wired I think, and I'm not sure what that is).
