I suggest creating one or a series of queries to get what you need  - then 
probably some spreadsheeting if you need to do anything advanced.

I like keeping a summary table of monthly income and expenses, but which 
also includes my mortgage payments, and for that I use this query (saved in 
fava):


SELECT year, month, root(account, 2) as Account, sum(number) as Total, 
currency
WHERE
account ~ 'Expenses' OR
account ~ 'Liabilities:Mortgage' OR
account ~ 'Income'
GROUP BY year, month, Account, currency
ORDER BY year, month, currency, Account
FLATTEN

The root(account, 2) keeps it at a high level, like Expenses:Car. You can 
simplify it further with just root 1 and no month. Then you get your year's 
summary.  I just press the download as, and then paste it into my 
spreadsheet.

As I'm writing this, I realise that my query is old (from when I first 
started playing with it) and you could simplify it with:

account ~ 'Expenses|Liabilities:Mortgage|Income'

So, just add or subtract 
AND NOT account ~ 'Assets:Not:This:One' 

 to your report and get the data that way.
