[GNC] Saved reports in GNUCash 5.x

[Murugan Muruganandam]

hi Roland

open the file v4 "saved-reports-2.8" in a editor and check if it contains all the invoices you have customized. If the file has issues you need to fix

My post came through twice, so I;ll stick to the original one here ...

The above addresses the core of the problem...  It's weird that I could
not find this simple reference in the wiki though.

In addition to this:

I have a whole number of custom invoice templates defined for different
companies and other entities, but it seems that GC 5.x strips away most
of these and only leaves 2 of them.  Is that by design or is it a bug?

If I have to recreate the templates, then so be it, but it took quite a
bit of work to fine-tune them...

thanks again

Roland
