Doing  Reports: Assets&Liabilities: Balance Sheet
In the Options: Display:
I uncheck Include accounts with zero total balances
I check Omit zero balance figures

If I take the default of 3 Levels of subaccounts
the report has lots of lines with zero amounts.

If I change the Levels of subaccounts to All,
then the zero entries go away.

Seems wrong.

I'm not so sure wrong. Let me ask you a question

These accounts that appear (even though showing zero) at a small number of levels but that disappear then the nesting level is increased enough to expand the entire tree ........ Do they have children that are not appearing because of level truncation.

Consider THIS situation << where truncation is set so that only Account X shows >>

         Account X                        (balance 0)

                Account Y                   (balance debit  10)

                Account Z                   (balance credit 10)

In other words, I might want to see an account whose balance is zero IF it has children  (being truncated) with non-zero balances. I'd at least want to think about it some  before deciding show vs don't show.    And possibly any situation where the children COULD BE non-zero. In other words, is the "exclude zero" not working as you expect because  because truncation of levels means the report can no longer "see" if below there all zero or not.
