    I have just recently downloaded and started using GnuCash. For the most part, I love it and it looks like most of its weaknesses have been thoroughly discussed by the users. Today, I was wondering about cash versus accrual account reporting. It really would be desirable to be able to do both upon selection. I have used QuickBooks in the past. Though I'm not a big QuickBooks fan, it was pretty easy (as I recall -- it's been a couple of years) to get a cash or accrual based report. On the report specification page, at the time one runs a report, one simply selects cash or accrual. There is no need for any change in the chart of accounts. I don't know what happens behind the scenes but if you select cash, you get a cash basis report and if one selects accrual, one gets an accrual based report. Anyhow, that's how I recall it. And, I whole heartedly agree that it would be very desirable to have such a capability in GnuCash.
