Description Pedro Vaz 2012-07-18 17:46:48 UTC

I created a transaction report called "Error in Transaction!" that should only include the following categories:
 - A000382
 - A000383
 - A000384

If you run it you will see that on 2012-07-12 the report takes into account the entire split transaction amount, instead of filtering A000068 out. I would expect a total for the month of July to be 9.4+10.4+54.3= 74.1, instead of 63.6, leaving the 10.5 out from category A000068. Even though the transactions are from the same split transaction, the last has a category that should not be included in the report.



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a transaction report
2. Run report that filters per category
3. The report considers split transactions totals instead of checking the splits
4.
Actual Results:  
Incorrect report

Expected Results:  
Total Month of 2012-07-01 = -74.1K, approx

Have you tried basing your report on a "Transactions by Category" report?

Comment 3 Pedro Vaz 2012-07-18 19:21:46 UTC

It works correctly with Transactions by Category, thank you.
But shouldn't the other report work the same way also?

Comment 4 Alvaro Soliverez 2012-07-18 19:36:48 UTC

The total shown in that report is not per category, but for the accounts involved in the transaction. As you filter per category, that amount remains unaffected.
Also, for the most simple cases, it would be possible to calculate the amount, but if two or more accounts are involved in a transaction, it gets tricky. And having multiple accounts and multiple categories is not so uncommon (ie. salary transactions).
