year end

[Blair Lowe]

Hi,

Thanks for all the info so far: it is greatly appreciated.

OK I looked at the options for the "accounts receivable report". That is
the problem here. It only has one date that you can set, and if you now
(in 2005) set it to December 31, 2004, it will not show data in 2004:
major issue. We need to span years, for example, from 2004/03/01 to
2005/02/28.

Is there somewhere else that we can set a start and end date for the
accounts receivable report, and other year end type reports?

BTW, we are using gnucash rpm version: gnucash-1.8.8-0.9

Thanks,
Blair.
