How to jump to a ledger-report by key

Question

This keybind only works after I've opened a ledger file.

(spacemacs/set-leader-keys "jL"
  'ledger-report
  )

Thus I presume ledger-mode is required. Yet adding (require 'ledger-mode)

(spacemacs/set-leader-keys "jL"
  (require 'ledger-mode)
  'ledger-report
  )

returns

kbd: Wrong type argument: integer-or-marker-p, ledger-report

I don't know anything about spacemacs, but on general principles I would try this:

(spacemacs/set-leader-keys "jL"
  (lambda ()
     (interactive)
     (require 'ledger-mode)
     (call-interactively #'ledger-report)))

Thank you. Returns `command-execute: Wrong type argument: commandp, (lambda nil (require 'ledger-mode) (ledger-report))` – jjk Mar 03 '21 at 08:12
Fixed that - can you try again? – NickD Mar 03 '21 at 13:02
Thank you. Returns `Wrong number of arguments: (2 . 2), 0` – jjk Mar 03 '21 at 13:16
Eh - sorry. I'm proceeding blindly since I have neither `spacemacs`, nor `ledger-report`, but this "final" fix *should* work (famous last words!) – NickD Mar 03 '21 at 14:10
Asks `Buffer modified, save it? (y or n)`. Hitting `n`, I'm able to select a report (hurray), though `find-file-noselect: Wrong type argument: stringp, nil`. Could it help providing the ledger file as an argument to your snippet? – jjk Mar 03 '21 at 16:13
It might but I cannot test that without installing `ledger` and `ledger-report` and I don't have time to do that. Feel free to experiment and edit the answer if you get it working (or provide your own answer, or wait until somebody with a properly equipped emacs can provide a correct answer). I'll leave the answer up for a little while for inspiration :-) but if a correct answer is provided by somebody, I'll delete it. – NickD Mar 03 '21 at 16:54
