Enhanced Balance Sheet with groups

In this article

The Balance sheet with groups differs from the Balance sheet for the following characteristics:

  • Includes also subgroups in the printout, as in the chart of accounts (and not only groups).
  • Offers the possibility to exclude groups or accounts (for instance, to display only the total of the group and not the accounts of which the total is composed).
  • In the Chart of accountsSections it is possible to select which accounts to include or leave out in the printouts
  • It is possible to choose, for a given period, what kind of subdivision you want (for example in the first semester, you can choose wether to obtain the data by month or by quarter)
  • It is possible to have a subdivision by segment
  • ... and much more!

In order to calculate, display and print the Enhanced Balance sheet by groups, click on the Enhanced balance sheet with groups command from the Account1 menu; a window appears, with different sections that allow the user to define the print setup.

  • In case the Show previous year option is being activated, and in the previous year file there are groups that are no longer present in the current year, the program will give error messages. Can I do something about it?
