Hi Michael, Yes, the base template id's shouldn't change in future gnucash versions. Once a report template gets an id (assigned by the developer that creates this report template) it will be fixed. This is not dependent on your installation or your accounting data. The only thing that could possibly happen is when a report template is removed from gnucash. That's equivalent to the report no longer being accessible via the reports menu. For completeness, if you have written your own reports in guile code, they will have their own unique ID. It would be up to you to ensure these handwritten reports get copied to the respective gnucash installations that need them in order for these report template id's to be available.
