Hi I had the same issue needing the report in PDF so I just scripted it to run the report in HTML and then just convert that to PDF

I want to run a "customer report". I have the following command working: gnucash-cli -R run --name "Customer Report" --output-file test1 Troop892.gnucash Running with "show" isn't helpful, I would have expected it to list particular parameters for the report. gnucash-cli -R show --name "Customer Report" --output-file test1 Troop892.gnucash * name: Customer Report guid: c146317be32e4948a561ec7fc89d15c1 Some deprecated features have been used. Set the environment variable GUILE_WARN_DEPRECATED to "detailed" and rerun the program to get more information. Set it to "no" to suppress this message. It wants a customer ID, but I don't see any way to enter that as a parameter. How do I add that. I would like it to make PDFs if possible as well, but when I attempt that, I get the following message: gnucash-cli -R run --name "Customer Report" --export-type pdf --output- file test1.pdf Troop892.gnucash Only the following reports have export code: * Assets Over Time * Expense Over Time * Income and GST Statement * Income/Expense Chart * Income & Expense Linechart * Income Over Time * Liabilities Over Time * Net Worth Barchart * Net Worth Linechart * Tax Schedule Report/TXF Export Use -R show to describe report _______________________________________________ gnucash-user mailing list [email protected] To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user ----- Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
