Account Report/Register Report

[Robin Chattopadhyay]

Hi-

Using Linux Mint 18.3, Gnucash 2.6.19...

There's a report I like to use called Account Report. You can get to it
after opening a register. I use this report to see what gnc has as the cost
basis for an investment.

Because of the way my 401(k) provider calculates cost basis, I have found
that the only way to properly track realized gains/losses in gnc is to
manually make the entries myself. So I use this report and set the options
to Amount = SINGLE and tick the 'Value' option. The net Value Change neatly
reflects my cost basis (assuming there are no filters and all transactions
in the account are visible).

My question is: Can I go somewhere and change the defaults for this report
so that I don't have to select them every time? For any other report, I
would save the report to ~/.gnucash/saved-reports-2.4 and just select the
account I wanted to report on.

But this report doesn't have an option to select the account so my next
thought was to change the defaults.

Thanks,
Robin
