Mike,

I’m using 3.5.

I don’t think the Running Balance column is ‘broken’ so much as it is now 
showing something you weren’t expecting.

I can achieve the same effect by selecting multiple accounts to report on 
instead of just one and using Single as the detail level.

Running Balance shows you the running balance as of that transaction *for that 
account*. So if you are showing splits of a transaction to other accounts, 
those individual lines will show the running balance of their own accounts, not 
the main one you are trying to report on.

If you have something like this:

Assets:Checking
Expenses:Auto
Expenses:Sales Tax

Then each line will report the running balance for each account separately. 
Certainly, the Auto & Sales Tax splits don’t affect the running balance for 
Checking, just the Checking split does. (as it balances the other two, you 
wouldn’t include them again)

What I’m guessing you are looking for is to see the transaction detail, but 
only show the running balance for the First split account, which would be the 
one you are running the report for. (Checking in the above example)

I can’t find a way to suppress the Running Balance for the other splits.

If you are wanting to report only a single account, but still show split 
detail, try opening the register of the target account and then running an 
Account Report.

It will by default, show all splits as proper debits and credits, but only 
display the running balance once per transaction on the same line as the 
debit/credit of the target account.

Regards,
Adrien

Re: [GNC] Export files for audit

Thanks.

I ran across a FAQ on the wiki that explains that, and I think it will
work well.

I just created a Transaction Report with the detail I need, and saved
it as an HTML file.  Then I opened the HTML file with LibreOffice/Excel
and formated it how I needed.

It looks pretty similar to what our Treasurer submitted last year to
the auditor.

Side Note- I noticed that the Running Balance column broke when I
selected Detail Level to Multi-Line in the Transaction Report.  This is
in GnuCash 3.4+ (2018-12-30) on Debian 9.  Does anyone know if that is
addressed in 3.5?  I'm so close to the end of the fiscal year I wanted
to wait to upgrade to 3.5 until after I closed this year's books.

Thanks for the help,

Mike

This is end of my first year as Treasurer of a PTA, and my first year
using gnucash.

What is the best way to export or print a year's worth of gnucash data
for an auditor to review?

What is the auditor asking for? Is the auditor willing to install 
gnucash (in which case you could send the FILE which is the books and 
the auditor could look at whatever).

I say, “Ask the Auditor” but otherwise, check out the Transaction Report. It is 
probably the most detailed available.

There are also the General Journal and General Ledger Reports.
