Note: The Account Transactions Report displays entries that fall between the fiscal year start date and period end date of the Working Trial Balance Report. For example, suppose you generate the Working Trial Balance Report with a period end date of 1/31/2017. In this example, assume that the first day of the corresponding fiscal period is 1/1/2017 and the first day of the corresponding fiscal year is 10/1/2016. If you drill down to the Account Transactions Report from the Working Trial Balance Report , the Account Transactions Report displays entries that fall between 10/1/2016 and 1/31/2017.
