Accounting report

The Accounting Report generates and prints an overview of the balances of all accounts in the chart of accounts, grouped according to specific criteria and related to a defined period or its subdivision. The Accounting Report is displayed in a new table called Accounts Report and is based on the column structure of the Accounts table.

To create and print an Accounting Report:

• From the menu Reports > Accounting Report 

Basic

Report
Choose the desired grouping:

• Like in the accounts table – the report lists accounts as shown in the accounts table, including Opening and Balance columns.
• Accounts by class – the report lists accounts, but without subgroups.
• External Accounting Report  – The report is displayed through a file external to the accounting file, with a specific grouping defined by the user. It is created by selecting Menu > File > New > Accounting type > Accounting Report.
  The report is always shown in the Accounts Report table, as illustrated in the following image.
