Why is my Contribution Detail Report (native CiviCRM Core report) not accurate?
Version: CiviCRM 5.7.4/5 (patched for Contact images)
A Donor sent in a chq for $100 - Staff entered originally as a Donation. Then Edited the Contribution to make it a Memoriam Donation. CiviCRM generates the three entries - see below:

Issue: in Contribution Detail Report this Donor is listed as having donated: $300 - please see below. So somehow sums up the absolute value of the three amounts/financial account transactions that are linked to the single Contribution.

Question: why? Columns checked: Donor Name, Donor Email, Donor Phone, Financial Type, Payment Type, Check Number, Transaction ID, Date Received, Amount, Credit Card Type, Country
Update: there are no soft credits on this Contribution and the report is configured to pull Contributions only

There is a known bug (https://lab.civicrm.org/dev/core/issues/655) in the Contribution Detail report right now that will multiply gifts by the number of soft credits.
There are no soft credits on this contribution; I’ve updated the question.

The linked issue suggests it might not be limited to soft credits, i.e.it's still a multiplication based on the number of "contributions" whether soft credit or not with the same ID. Unless I'm misreading that.

Ok figured it out: the report is fine if I remove the column ‘Credit Card Type’. Then I see $100 in the report!
