Verified feature request does not already exist?

  • I have searched and found no existing issue

💻

  • Would you like to implement this feature?

Pitch: what problem are you trying to solve?

One of the main reports that I use is the cash flow report. I'd like to be able to set it up to see just last month's cash flow. However it appears there is no way to do that with a "live" time range (only "last year") unlike in the custom report UI. The workaround right now is just to use the static time range and update it each month.

I'm an experienced developer (but not with TypeScript!), so I'm happy to try to implement this feature if we want it. I believe the live time ranges used by the cash flow widget are in packages/desktop-client/src/components/reports/getLiveRange.ts, so I'm thinking of first going in here and adding a lastMonth option, and then searching for how this propagates to the cash flow report, and if any other parts of the codebase would benefit.

Describe your ideal solution to this problem

Cash flow report tool bar (pictured) has an additional option called "Last Month".

There's likely little to consider here, but I'm all ears!
