This is a bug in the current version of the report. A fix has been applied and 
will appear in gnucash 3.9. If you are eager to test before that version is 
released, you can download a nightly windows build or linux flatpak to test 
from here:
https://code.gnucash.org/builds/win32/
https://code.gnucash.org/builds/flatpak/

The usual caveats for development builds apply: they are less tested so make 
backups of your data before using them.
