We probably need to keep pointing this out to people new to gnucash
because it is counter-intuitive (being backwards)
With gnucash you FIRST "run" a report, which brings the report up with
default settings. Then you use edit=>report options to select the
options that you want for this run of the report. The report will change
when you "apply" these changes. They will stay that way as long as the
report is open (tab still there). But you can also "save" a report.
Personally, if not leaving a report open, I reset the options that I
want at the next running of the report to remain conscious of the
options being used. But that's because personally I am not running with
many options set. Were I, I'd probably save BUT that introduces the
potential error of WRONG saved report being brought back (say you have
several, same report but different options.
NOTE: There are SOME reports where you should always be setting some
options. For example, the explicit effective dates.
