GL Trial Balance Drilldown
You can use the GL Trial Balance Drilldown report by selecting
.This drilldown report is similar to the GL Trial Balance report.
Required inputs are Company, Beginning Month, and Ending Month. Optional inputs are Beginning Account and Ending Account; Source Modules to include (one or more, comma-separated, or blank for all); Journal to include (one only, or blank for all); and flags to indicate whether to include year-end adjustments or inactive accounts, or to show zero balances.
Level 1 of the drilldown displays summary amounts by GL Account for the specified time period, including beginning balance, net activity (debit or credit) over the period, and ending balance.
Upon drilling into a specific GL Account, Level 2 displays summary amounts by month within the time period.
Upon drilling into a specific month, Level 3 presents that month's data by Journal and GL Reference, including the sum of debits and sum of credits for each GL Reference. The Journal sub-report, accessible at Level 3, displays all journal activity for the GL Reference, across all affected accounts.
Upon drilling into a specific GL Reference, Level 4 shows each GL transaction within that GL Reference (Batch ID), including the amount (debit or credit) of the transaction. Source detail for an individual GL transaction, when available, is displayed in the Source Detail sub-report, accessible at Level 4.
Note that the report is intended to be run for months that fall within a single fiscal year. If the inputs that you supply for Beginning Month and Ending Month fall within different fiscal years, the report displays a warning message, and may show inaccurate amounts for beginning balance and ending balance, particularly for income or expense accounts (which start each new fiscal year with a beginning balance of zero). The fiscal year that includes the Beginning Month input is used for purposes of calculating beginning balance amounts.
Note also that if you restrict the results to specific Source Modules or a specific Journal, the report does not print beginning balance amounts for accounts.
