OK, guess I wasn't clear (my bad) the "find" action is am invoking is
from the account hierarchy not from within a register. No account
registers are open and only showing the account tab.

I fail to understand why the total credits/debits at the bottom of the
report are NOT equal when the search criteria is for a single
description and a single expense account.  The search results may
contain splits for more than one asset account (credits) and will show
splits for only the expense account gas (all debits).

The debit/credit splits all appear correct, it is the totals and running
balance which are strange. Usually the debit total is correct and credit
total will be equal to only the latest entry(s).
