Try a Transaction Report.

Select only that expense account in Options > Accounts tab

I can't bring up my instance at the moment, but I *think* in the Options > Accounts tab there is a 'filter' section after the main accounts selection. If so, select only the credit card account there.

If not, in the Display tab, set it to show the 'other account name' so at least you can see the info on the report.

If you don't get results for the desired date window, set the date window from the beginning of the book until perhaps end of 2026.

If you still don't get results, filter by more than one credit card if you have one.

If that still doesn't work, then remove the filters, show all transactions for the expense account displaying 'other' account name and just wade through them. You likely have a data entry error somewhere that your filtering is preventing you from seeing them.

Adrien

Tried from the expense account and it still doesn't return any transactions.

AS for your suggestion to run an income and expense report, I have never run 
reports and under 'income and expense', I tried Trial Balance selecting only the 
'Doctors & Dentists' account and the dates I wanted.  Then I clicked on the 
related link and it showed me the expenses in the account, but from the beginning 
of time (at least from when I started using Gnucash in 2015).

Thank You,

Reverse the workflow. Open "Doctors & Dentists" register, and perform find to 
the Credit Card account first. Then as a second stage refinement add dates. See if that 
shows. If it doesn’t show then most likely those transactions have incorrect contra leg. In 
that case review of each every transactions will be needed to hunt it down. Alternate I can 
think of is to generate an Income and expense report with those accounts and dates to see if 
they are there.

Thanks, I tried 'New Search' for just the account, but it still returns nothing.

Only thing to watch out is that make sure that you select 'Type of search'
to 'New search' when updating/modifying the search criteria as default
selection is to refine the search, otherwise those transaction are not
assigned to "Doctors & Dentists" anymore.

I suggest take two steps approach ... first find all transaction from credit
card account that are assigned to "Doctors & Dentists" and then refine it to
be between dates in the second step refinement.

Subject: [GNC] Problem with "Find"

I tried to "Find" transactions in my credit card account that were charged
to the expense account "Doctors & Dentists" between the dates 07/22/2026 &
08/24/2026.  I selected "Account", "Choose Accounts", then selected
"Expense" and the "Doctors & Dentist" account.  I also added the 2 dates as
additional criteria.  It found no transactions and I know there were at
least 2.  I tried doing it again, this time leaving out the dates, knowing
that I could just look at the last month.  Again, it found o Transactions.

What am I doing wrong or is this a bug?


Thank You,
