Report Criteria Text on Split Transaction

[Peter Hargreaves-3]

Version: 0.9.1-CVS 3.5.9, Kubuntu (hardy) 4:3.5.9-0ubuntu7.1
OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.24-19-generic
Compiler: Target: i486-linux-gnu
Severity: Normal -> Grave

Hi Folks,

I'm using Report Configuration>Criteria>Text to filter transactions, some of
which are split transactions and it is not behaving as expected.

In split transactions I'm using the Memo of a split item to identify it for
the Text filter. I find that instead of just the one item appearing in the
report, all the sibling split items appear.

Is this intentional? I'd like to report it as a bug.

I've tested Report Configuration>Criteria>Category and this pulls out only the
split items that match the Category, not all the sibling items. So, I would
expect Text filtering to do the same.

Great software - looking forward to your reactions.

Peter.

Hello Peter,
it is probably getting confused between the transaction memo and the memo for a specific split. I will look into it.
Thanks for noticing.

Regards,
Alvaro

Hello all,
I have a patch for this. If the text does not match the split, it will not show it.
Downside to this, is that if the text only matches the memo of the transaction, it will show only the transaction, without any splits.

What do you think about this?

Regards,
Alvaro

Fixed in CVS.
If the text matches the main split, it will show all splits. If it matches another, it will show only that one split.

Alvaro

My preference would be:
1) When text matches the transaction memo - show all the split items -
regardless of any matches for the split items. Because the transaction
represents/contains all the split items.
2) When text does not match the transaction memo - show only the split items
where the text matches the split item's memo.
I'm not too worried about 1) though.
Regards,
Peter.
