What I haven't been able to find is how to get the search to occur across all accounts. For instance, I occasionally enter a receipt into the wrong account and only find it while reconciling, so I want to search across all accounts for the misplaced value. It seems like Find only searches in the current account no matter what I do with the Account filters (or if I don't use them at all).
