[GNC] Best way to track expenses for trips

Thinking on it a bit more from your 3-part use case, maybe just go with 
location, but set the report's range to match your target dates. Yes, 
that means you can't get a single report with multiple 'trips' shown 
unless they are all on the same date, or don't cross period boundaries. 
(because you can use date as a sorting and subtotaling key, but that has 
its own limitations - see the Options > Sorting tab)

I'm not following why Description would be included in the filter. That 
can of course be shown in the report, but not sure why you'd want to 
filter on it.

Can you give an example?


Regards,
Adrien
