[GNC] Matchmakers import filters lost with upgrade of GC
Dear users of GnuCash, I have been using GC for 7 month now and there's a lot I like about this programme. One thing that keeps bothering me: when I upgrade to a new version (I build it myself), all the settings are lost. Especially the saved import settings from the Matchmaker. I wonder where these settings are being stored. Obviously not in the accountancy file itself, since that is reused every time. At a first glance, it seems to be here: /home/ulrich/.local/share/gnucash/ GnuCash-VCWK.gnucash.gcm But this file is not removed when I upgrade. Also, it is not version specific (as far as I understand) I use Linux (Ubuntu with KDE). Thanks in advance for any help. -- नमस्ते (Namasté), Ulrich ¤º°`°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°`°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°`°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°`°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°`°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°`°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°`°º¤ø " Can't talk to you without talking to me; we're guilty of the same old thing.

Re: [GNC] Report Options
To add to Stan's answer, you can select your preferred report to use for printing invoices via File->Properties->Business->Default Invoice Report In Gnucash 4.x and older the choices are limited to the four base reports included in GnuCash. Starting with gnucash 5.0 the list has been extended with all your saved reports that are based on one of these base reports. So if you configure an invoice report to your taste and then save it as a saved report configuration, you can select that configuration in the business properties - again starting with 5.1.

Transaction matches are saved in the book, as are preferences set in the File>Properties dialog and most book-related non-presentation data. Window and tab layouts and other presentation-related data are stored in the .gcm file for the book. Report configurations are saved in a file named saved-reports-2.8 in that same directory. Preferences set with the Edit>Preferences (Gnucash>Preferences on macOS) and most other data that's not specific to a particular book (e.g. the last 10 files you opened in GnuCash) are stored using GSettings. That last is the one thing that's changed in the last 10 years: It uses schemas to declare entries, and in 4.8 we changed the schema names from org.gnucash to org.gnucash.Gnucash to work better in flatpak builds. 4.8 and later include a conversion routine that runs at startup but there have been occasional reports of it failing. However that's a one-time thing: If you were running GnuCash 5.1 and had the preferences set to your liking and they went back to the defaults when you started 5.3 something else is going on.
