Gnu Cash

[David T.]

Folks might want to look at https://lists.gnucash.org/pipermail/gnucash-user/2011-May/039979.html <https://lists.gnucash.org/pipermail/gnucash-user/2011-May/039979.html>. John W.’s post outlines a pretty clear way to accomplish what he called a reconciliation report. I haven’t tried it out myself, however.

If that’s not what’s wanted, then the first step on getting a new report would be to outline what precisely goes into a “reconciliation report.”
