Re: [GNC] Understanding Transaction Report options

One other thing I forgot: You mentioned having ‘Banks’ and ‘Credit Cards’ as top-level accounts. If you mean they don’t lie under Assets & Liabilities respectively, I’d reconsider. You might have trouble with Balance sheets and some other reports working properly. Of course, you can place acc

Thank you for the quick response! The light goes on. Expenses was marked as hidden and was not showing up on the account list. Your correction has resolved my problem. -- Sent from: http://gnucash.1415818.n4.nabble.com/GnuCash-User-f1415819.html ___

Re: [GNC] Understanding Transaction Report options

First off, your approach is backwards. Why are you selecting the asset/liability accounts when what you want is a report on the expense account? Just select Expenses:Telephone as the account and leave the filtering blank unless you want a subset of the expense account that only shares splits wit

Re: [GNC] Understanding Transaction Report options

I have top level accounts Banks and Credit Cards. Under Banks I have sub-accounts Checking and Money Fund. Under Credit Cards I have sub-accounts Discover, Master Card, and Visa. I may pay phone charges from any of these sub-accounts, recording the entries under the Transfer account Expenses:Tel

Re: [GNC] Understanding Transaction Report options

George, In the QIF import process, there is a step at which you can map the Quicken Accounts onto the GnuCash accounts. The Quicken Expense and Income categories should automatically be assigned as sub accounts of the GnuCash top level Income and Expense accounts. (https://www.gnucash.org/docs/v3/

Re: [GNC] Understanding Transaction Report options

Yup.  I am a Quicken data-convert. And all those accounts at 'top level' are what I got. I did not start 'fresh' with GnuCash from the outset with the GnuCash way of organizing accounts. But, accounts all have a property of 'account type' that pretty much seems like workable 'top-level' catego

(Using GnuCash 3.7.1 on Windows 10) I approach the Transaction Report options for "Accounts" and "Filter By..." as a sort of 2-dimensional thing.  Down the rows are the incomes and expenses that I want reported (sorta like Quicken's old 'categories') and across the columns are the accounts tha

OK, I'll take a shot  at this since I've been using  the  Transaction Report a lot  over the last two weeks. If you run a Transaction Report on Checking and select... Filter Type: Transactions To/From Filter Accounts... Filter By: Expenses > Utilities Then Click Apply... then gnuCash will show

[GNC] Understanding Transaction Report options

I’m having some trouble understanding the meaning of the Accounts and Filter tabs options and I find the Help and the Tutorial and Concepts Guide needs a bit more explanation. 1. Account tab:  What does the “Include transactions to/from Filter Accounts” (and “Exclude”) mean? The documentation
