I have not migrated to release 3.x yet, so I have not seen that new Transaction Report (General / Add options summary) yet. I hope it includes a list of selected accounts, name and path for the data file, and, if possible any other details such as last file save time and whatever else to try to

There's mechanism for printing report settings, but it's only enabled in the Transaction Report (General / Add options summary). Import/Export of settings is more difficult because many options are datafile-specific eg selection of accounts, report currency. The current saved-reports

Nice. On all counts. This might also address some recent list topics about migrating from one OS to another. If the report settings were exportable/importable, via an app function, that would make things easier and allay some concerns. Regards, Adrien > On Dec 18, 2018, at 3:42 PM, David

Steve My understanding is that the matcher tokenizes the description and possibly the memo field and constructs a probaility table for combinations of tokens being used as the basis of assigning a transaction to a given account and matches the incoming transaction tokens to the stored tokens to

The slot value is a score. You may find that some fragments have several entries with different scores. The Bayes matcher finds all of the fragments in a string and sums up the scores for each GUID. The GUID with the highest sum is the match. For example suppose you have the string “Joe’s Fish

OK, I figured out that .gnucash does not describe the file format which is either compressed or non-compressed XML depending on the compression setting you choose. So I switched to non-compressed and look at the bayesian elements and it's not what I would have expected. The expressions that
