When I try to export XML via Export > XML

I get the following message which may be related to the backup as they're both XML backups?

Error exporting XML file Failed to generate GNUCash XML-guid not exists in commodity db

Is there any way to back up the app data other than exporting the XML?

I've tried "adb backup -f org.gnucash.android.ab -apk org.gnucash.android " however it creates an empty backup file. The manifest says that allowBackup is set to true so this should work?

I restored a backup from before this issue occurred and manually entered missing transactions. The backups now work on the beta version of the app.
