I need to print reports to submit a tax return but cannot get transaction filter to work. It just says "Nothing to report". Any suggestions. I have done this on many previous years with no problems. What am I doing wrong?

    Hmmm.. I'm not convinced we have reproduced this issue, or fixed the problem. I cannot find an issue... Does the issue go away if you ALSO tick the 'include memo' box on the right of the 'Description' field (when that option is ticked)?

    If that does not work, please can you upload here a screenshot of the report generated (and the settings), and also a screenshot of those same transactions in the register. If just one transaction is missing, can you in addition, go to help/show console, then flip back to the register, select a missing transaction, right click, show raw details, and upload a screenshot of that too (all the details shown). So that's several things we need:

    1. copy of report

    2. copy of the report settings

    3. screen shot of one or more missing transactions

    4. the raw details.

    Hi Maddy

    I think I had an email from Steve/Stuart Beesley this morning regarding the transaction filter problem but the email appears to have disappeared. Am I imagining things or was there an update on progress?

    Thanks Maddy, sorry to trouble you.

    Dave

    Hi Stuart,

    I tried ticking "include memo box) same result. "Nothing to report".
    This doesn't make sense. I have been using this feature since I have been with Moneydance (more than 10 years), it is only this year that it does not work. It reports all outgoings but will not report incomings.
    The other things you were asking for I do not fully understand. Not sure if this helps you at all. When was the last update, could it be something to do with that?

    Very simply.. Starting again...

    1. send copy of recent report that not's working (as PDF).

    2. send screen shot of that same report's settings.

    3. then Menu, Help, Show Console. Keep this console open.. Now switch back to the register, and find a transaction that is missing from the report.

    4. send a screen shot of that missing transaction from the register (that you say is missing from that report).

    5. now right click that same missing transaction, select show raw details, select and copy the contents. Paste this contents back here.

    Please advise which of these steps you cannot perform and I will see if I can explain differently.

    Hi Stuart

    This is a copy of an income report that didn't work. I make these reports to send to my accountant for submission to HMRC for my annual tax return.

    Have copied console message. Problem with point 3. It's the whole transaction that is missing from the report, not a single item. Have I understood you correctly?

    Hi. Not quite. When the console is open. Then minimise the console and go to the normal account register where you can see your missing transaction. Then send screenshot of that missing txn. Then right click it. Show raw details. Copy the raw details. Also paste those here.

    Thanks - almost perfect... BUT the last show details window is too small. Can you make it larger to show all the raw details and then send that?

    OK - that report will NEVER show - your range is tax year 25/26 (to April 2026) and this txn is 13th August 2026.

    To compound matters, you are searching for "Rothhesay Life" and your txn says "Rothesay Life" - this is the second reason it will never be included?

    Can you send the details of a transaction that is both within your date range, and matches the description, and is missing from the report (when it shouldn't be)?

    Hi Stuart, I can send you an outgoing one that generated a report.

    Both those transactions are appearing on the report?

    dated 2/3/2026 and 2/9/2025

    What am I missing? Your first example would never appear on the report, and these should and do appear on the report?

    Please send examples of transactions that should appear, but do not?

    Good morning Stuart,

    I did not send the settings of last nights example. Here it is:-

    [cid:2e796855-e108-4dec-9e32-361a3021b7b6]

    I thought I would send another example of one that didn't generate a report. As you can see, it is the transactions in the credit column that do not generate a report whereas the transactions in the debit column do. Here is the example:-

    [cid:77adbfb4-6e7a-44b6-9845-6f902cb2e817]

    [cid:73961ebe-294f-476d-92c9-c02ec3593f9b]

    [cid:ef721475-d65a-421b-86d2-640e3dfaa375]

    [cid:b0446388-c988-4ae6-b87f-b8c5ee56078c]

    I think that is everything. Let me know if you need any more.

    Dave

    OK, this one works for me.. BUT - your report settings screen looks wrong! I think you have it squashed so you cannot see all the settings - especially the AND/OR and also the Category selection. This could be set wrong? Please expand the settings window and take a new screenshot of the whole settings - see my screenshots.

    Can you reset the category filter and even UNTICK it? What happens now?

    Also, run toolbox extension, general tools, view memorised reports, look for

    ====== DEFAULT REPORTS SETTINGS/PARAMETERS (from Local Storage) RAW DUMP ======
    

    then find the searchrpt section and copy/paste that here too

    Hi Stuart

    If I have understood you correctly I have resent the 'Just Retirement' report plus settings.

    [cid:87e448d4-7a1a-4733-806e-18a7cb95e36e]

    [cid:5573c490-d73a-4a8f-9267-c1bb2f2c6348]

    [cid:710d65ee-ac20-49e9-a0aa-cf4bb9456cc3]

    OK down to resetting category filter. I'm not understanding from that point onwards. What is toolbox extension etc?

    For now can you click the ALL (categories button) and rerun the report. Does that transaction appear?

    Dave, what's wrong with that last report? Every month was there.. Please keep to one example transaction that is not working and the same report setting that should show it (but doesn't). The last one that you said didn't work was Just Retirement on 27/02/2026. Please repeat that test, and show me all the details, and the report settings (and make sure the ALL button is clicked and the screen unsquashed)... Thanks

    So, what's the problem. That 'missing' txn dated 27/02/26 is clearly showing on the report?

    Are you now saying that all is OK? Or are you saying there is still an issue? Please clarify?

  27. 57 Posted by Dave Faulkner on 17 Aug, 2026 10:39 AM

    Dave Faulkner's Avatar

    Yes, all seems to be OK. Transaction reports are working. Just not clear that 'category' box was ticked when it was not working then it started working when 'Category' box was re-ticked. The only difference I can see was that the'All' button was not clicked.
    Having said all that, all appears to be working.

    OK, so in summary for anyone else watching.. No bug as such. The config window was squashed making the category selection screen invisible, and that had preselected certain categories. The filter needed resetting to ALL and now the report is fine.
