Thanks, I didn't know about the tag mechanism. The only relevant reports I've tried are Income Statement and Profit & Loss, and each of those has an option on the Entries page to specify a phrase or regex for transactions to be ignored. Maybe I'm not understanding your point, but my income statement and balance sheet aren't distorted in the way you describe. I don't always run monthly reports, but just now I ran one for last December and the income and expense amounts were as I expected.
