I'll add a nuance that filtering by date first will produce a report where the first transaction *should* reflect the balance as of that point. (but not before) That is, you can subtract the first transaction to obtain 'Balance Forward' if you include the 'Running Balance' column. (you'd have

You can first filter the register view by date, then run the account report, but that won't be any different than the result from the Transaction Report. You won't get an 'opening balance' or 'balance forward' from previous dates that way. If you set up the members as 'customers', invoice
