I have upgraded my GnuCash program 4.13 to 5.0 (Build ID: 5.0+(2023-03-25)) after realizing that the budget expense calculations were not correct. Not all the budget reports are wrong, but of the reports that I choose to use that are wrong are:

  1.  Budget Income Statement
  2.  Budget Profit & Loss Statement.

It appears that both the income and expense values(Data) for the above listed reports show the values in black (signifying that they are positive numbers for each income and expenses?). The other reports that I use (not listed) have their values for the income and expenses in black(income) and red(expenses). Those calculations appear to be working fine. The reports listed above show the calculations incorrect. In my preferences, I have checked the box to have all negative amounts to be in "Red".

In addition to accessing the reports menu for my saved reports, the program often crashes. I then am required to reopen the program and are given five (5) options before being allowed to continue. They are:

  1.  Open Read Only
  2.  Create a new file
  3.  Open anyway
  4.  Open Folder
  5.  Quit

I choose option # 3 "Open anyway". After doing that, I save the file and then I continue with my reports.

If I am doing something wrong, please forgive me and show me the error of my ways.

Thank you in advance for your help. I look forward to hearing from you.
