[GNC] Account view question

[Adrien Monteleone]

There is one other option, but it might cause issues elsewhere.

As you noted, there is a column you can show for 'Present/Balance/Total 
(period)' Total would be what you want for a delta. Then go to 
Preferences > Accounting Period and set explicit dates to whatever 
'yesterday' and 'today' are with the calendar picker. Of course, you'd 
have to update this every day, so a bit of work, but much less than 
generating reports daily and exporting to spreadsheets.

Since this is redefining your accounting period, other standard reports 
will be off by default but you can define their dates back to your real 
period like month, quarter, year, etc. And you can save those report 
configs to save clicks every time you run them.

I would think another column made available for 'Present/Balance/Total 
(custom)' could be useful. The user can then define what this interval 
is, such as daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, and custom dates.

Regards,
Adrien
