Don't use bean-report.
Use bean-query as much as possible.
See this thread for a light into what the future might hold, I want to
delete that code:

The other key is to not "close" calendar or financial years; while crossing
the new year date line, just continue accruing your transactions as normal.
It's only at reporting time that you open and close the period (see "open
on" and "close on" syntax in the from clause).
See this doc: http://furius.ca/beancount/doc/query

The intro document explains pictorially what the "open" and "close"
operations do:

I hope this helps,



P.s. thanks for the great project!
