I'm using hledger-ui to browse my ledger by year and when I drill down into an account's register, the transactions listed align with the calendar year instead of my fiscal year boundary, even though the balances match my fiscal year boundary.
- hledger-ui 1.40
- Ubuntu 22.04.5
Summary of example: launch hledger-ui with period yearly 11/01, using Shift+Down to shrink to the annual period, then Shift+Left to browse earlier fiscal years. The balances are correct, but when I drill down into the register of an account, hledger-ui lists transactions from the calendar year instead of the fiscal year (November 1 - October 31).
Details
$ hledger-ui --file ledger/main.journal --tree --theme=greenterm --value="then,CAD" --period="every 11/01"
Today is November 23, 2024, so when I press Shift+Down, I see "main.journal 2024". I understand this means the period 2024-11-01 to but excluding 2025-11-01.
I press Shift+Left, I see "main.journal 2023". I understand this means the period 2023-11-01 to but excluding 2024-11-01.
I choose Cash Accounts. I see "main.journal cash balances at end of 2023". I verify that these balances match the real-life cash account balances as at the end of 2024-10-31. (This is "the fiscal year that contains 2023-12-31, I guess.)
I choose one of my bank accounts. I see "$ACCOUNT_NAME transactions in 2023". Unfortunately, I see transactions from 2023-01-01 to 2023-12-31 and not what I expect, which is transactions from 2023-11-01 to 2024-10-31.
