Possibly confused about the process.

In gnucash, you don't PRE select the options you want for the report (in 
case that is what you are looking for). In stead you run the report 
(open the report) and if runs with defaults for all the options. Not 
done yet.

You then use edit=>report options which opens  windows that allow you to 
change these defaults to what you want. For example, many of the reports 
are for a date or date range. Gnucash might use "today" (or if you left 
that report "open" (tab) the date(s) you set last time. So you change 
the dates to what you want for THIS running of the report. There are 
LOTS of options. If you are new to gnucash you should investigate what 
those are so you can have the report s you run the way you want them.
