reports in kmymoney2

Asked by starchild7778

I am trying to view income and expense reports in kmymoney2. I have imported my qif file and assigned expense categories to the transactions in the ledger, but I have no data when I try to view any reports, unless I select "assets and liabilities" for the rows in the "configure" tab. What do I need to do differently?

Check your transactions and make sure that they have been assigned to categories correctly.
You can go to the Categories View and check a category that is supposed to have transactions.
Also, the reports by default show the current year.

They are all assigned to an expense category correctly. I did notice in the ledge that the year for all imported transactions was 1908 instead of 2008. Why is that? The date format I used for my QIF profile is %m/%d/%yy.

That's the problem then, the report shows only the transactions for current year. Try running a report and set it to show all dates.
Also, you can try modifying the dates of the transaction, if you don't have too many.
Another possibility is to modify the QIF file before importing and set all dates to %yyyy (eg. 2008)

Hei Ku,

Thanks. I solved this by modifying the qif file before importing to use a 4-digit year. I then used the %m/%d/%yyyy format for my qif profile. All is good now!
