Description Paul Gover 2018-03-04 17:23:08 UTC
I have a minimal setup with one current bank account, (plus cash and cheque accounts, but these are both empty at the moment).  There have been several transactions in the last month, all electronic funds transfer income.

When I run the "Cashflow Transactions in Last Month" report, the bank account appears as an Asset, with all the transactions listed below.  Then there is an Income section, which again has all the transactions, this time grouped by category.  Each of these sections has a total, which is correct (and identical), but then there's a grand total line, which adds these totals, to arrive at twice the true cashflow!

I'm no accountant, but I'd have expected only the Income (and Expense, but at the moment there are none) section; and perhaps Asset (and Liability, again none yet) section, but the grand total doesn't make sense to me.

I tried configuring the report Accounts to remove the Asset accounts, but that disposed of the report entirely, which I guess is reasonable.

I was just about to report this too. 

I see the same thing. I do not know what the Grand Total was meant to do but it sure does not make sense from an accounting perspective.
