Hello:
I am using GnuCash version 4.4.
When I use the "Find" option under the "Edit" menu while viewing an account
register, the "Search Results" I get seem to be a filtered version of the
account register that I was looking at when applying the "Find".
There are two differences between the account register and the Search Results
that I don't understand:
1. In the "Search Results" there are no amounts on each transaction line in the
"Tot Debit" or "Tot Credit" columns, as there are when viewing the account
register. There are amounts on the split lines, but not on the first line for
each transaction.
2. The "Balance" column on each transaction line shows "0.00" for each
transaction, whereas in the account register that column shows the balance of
the account after each transaction.
Why is value in the "Balance" column zero on every transaction line when
viewing Search Results, or put another way, what is the point of that column if
it shows no useful information? Is there a setting I can change so that the
values shown in the "Balance" column are a running total of debits and credits
on the account to which I applied the Edit → Find tool?
I’m guessing it has something to do with the Find tool forgetting what account
I’m interested in, and so not knowing which account’s running total it should
be showing. What I’m trying to do is to limit the date range for the account
register so I can generate an Account Report limited to that date range. The
problem is that an Account Report generated from the Search Results shows a
running total ("Balance" column) of zero after every transaction.
Alternatively, is there a way to generate an Account Report directly from an
account register but for a limited date range?
