Summary: Inclusion of Opening Balances in Net Worth Report on a
Specific Date
Classification: Applications
Product: kmymoney
Version: 5.1.3

Screenshots
Problem Description:
When generating a net worth report for a specific date in KMyMoney (version
5.1.3 on Ubuntu 24.10), I noticed that opening balances are automatically
included. This leads to an apparent duplication of values and distorts the net
worth distribution.
Steps to Reproduce the Issue:
Create a new account with a defined opening balance.
Enter additional transactions after the opening date.
Generate a net worth report for a specific date.
Observe that the report includes the opening balance, which doubles the
total value of assets/liabilities.
Impact:
This automatic inclusion of opening balances distorts financial analysis by
doubling the values of affected accounts, making the reports less reliable for
decision-making.
Suggested Improvement:
It would be beneficial to add an option allowing users to exclude opening
balances from the net worth report for a specific date, ensuring a more
accurate representation of the current financial situation.
Additional Information:
KMyMoney Version Used: 5.1.3
Operating System: Ubuntu 24.10
I am available to provide additional information or to test potential
solutions.
