When I used to export a report to PDF (eg., Balance Sheet) the file name used to show business name, report name, reporting period (eg., 1/4/2023-31/3/2024)

Now it just says 2024 - Accrual Basis.pdf

Update: This happens to some businesses (old and new) stored on Manager but not to all businesses.

Is there a new setting to add the old details back?

Manager desktop version 24.8.11.1812

I can not replicate the issue with Manager Server (Ubuntu) v24.8.11.1812 and accessed using Chrome on an M2 Mac with Sonoma. It still correctly gives “…test - Test Balalance Sheet - As at 14\_12\_2023 - Accrual basis…” in the print to PDF dialogue.

Therefore I tried Balance sheet and did not have any issue.
