In Spending by Category, try customizing it to change Details|Type to All
Types. In Spending by Payee, likewise try customizing it to change
Details|Type to All Types.

For example, yesterday I was looking under the reports by payee and by
category and they only showed the charges, not the credits. So, some gifts
that were returned didn't change the 'gifts' category and how much was spent
during the month even though I put 'gifts' as the category for both the
orginal charge entry and then the credit entry.

Hope I'm making sense...

You say "can't seem to decrease that category total for the month"--where
are you looking?

I'm sure I'm missing something simple here but let's say to do some shopping
and use the category "gifts" for that charge. Now, a few days later you
return a few of the items that were bought. I originally tried to use the
same category "gifts" (even though it's supposed to be income) but I can't
seem to decrease that category total for the month. How can you go about
applying that return to the category it was originally assigned to when it
was charged?
