This report does not need to be formatted—it prints detail for every account that has been entered in the system through the Account Maintenance/Inquiry module. For each account, it will show the account number, account description, account type, the beginning balance in the account for the current period, the activity for the account in the current period in debit and credit column format, followed by the ending balance for the account in the current period. At the end of the report, you will be able to see if the period is in balance. When you enter this report module, the screen will appear as follows:
The cursor will be positioned at the Company ID (1) prompt. If applicable, use the drop-down menu to select a different Company. The Period (2) field will default to the current open period in the system. You can type an earlier period for the year if applicable. At the Select (3) box, if the default period is selected, these fields will not be available. However, if you type an earlier period in that field, you can then access these fields, though you cannot select Next Year if that period is still open in the current year. If you wish to access archived data, click the Previous Year option and the system will display an FYE drop-down menu so you can select a prior year. Click the Excel icon (4) to export the data, or click the Print (4) button to print to paper or screen. To exit without printing, click the Cancel button.
