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?

On the Accounts screens, when a filter is selected a menu appears that allows the user to save a set of filters for reuse, or edit an existing saved filter (rename, modify, delete, etc.). This menu does not appear on the Reports screen, so there is no way to save new sets of filters or modify existing ones from the Reports.

Previously saved filters CAN be used on the Reports, however its is not immediately obvious that this is so.

Describe your ideal solution to this problem

Provide the same interface/menu on the Reports screen when filters are selected, similar to what is available in the Accounts register.

Teaching and learning

Update documentation as necessary, however this should be a fairly intuitive capability.

An additional (or alternate) solution would be to allow users to save different filtered versions of the default reports as separate cards in the Reports dashboard.

I.e. you could have a Net Worth report saved that's just retirement accounts that has it's own thumbnail.
