Re: Report error An error occurred while running the report.

While there is no "SIMPLE" way to un-reconcile an entire account, I have had to do this once or twice in the past and have found what I believe is the easiest way: Open Account Journal Open Search Dialog (CTRL-F) Search for ALL of these conditions: Reconcile : IS :

Re: A BASH script to help get tax-related data from gnucash

If you have set the accounts as tax-related, why wouldn't you use the Tax Schedule Report?   This works rather well, especially if you assign specific tax lines to your accounts. See chapter 10 of the help for detailed instructions.  David On Fri, Dec 15, 2017 at 13:17,
