Account balance report
Report on balances for selected Accounts.
Overview
The Account balance report shows the current balance and cleared balance for selected Accounts as of a chosen date. Open it by clicking the print button in the Account list toolbar.
Account selection
The left side of the dialog shows a tree view of all your Accounts. Select the Accounts you want to include in the report. Two selection buttons are available:
- Select all Accounts – Selects every Account in the list.
- Clear selection – Selects nothing.
Your selections are remembered between sessions.
Date range
The date drop-down chooses the point in time for the report:
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| Everything | Includes all Transactions regardless of date. |
| End of this month / quarter / year | Balances as of the end of the current period. |
| End of last month / quarter / year | Balances as of the end of the previous period. |
| End of 2–5 quarters ago | Balances as of the end of earlier quarters. |
| As of custom date | Enables a text field where you can type any date. |
When you type a date directly into the date field, the drop-down automatically switches to the custom date option. The date field is unavailable while Everything is selected.
Columns
Two checkboxes control which columns appear in the report:
| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| Balance | The total balance of each Account as of the selected date. |
| Cleared | The balance considering cleared and pending Transactions. |
You can show both columns together or either column by itself.
Output options
Four buttons on the side provide output options:
| Button | Description |
|---|---|
| Sends the report to your printer. | |
| Preview | Opens a print preview window where you can review the report before printing. |
| Copy to clipboard | Copies the report as tab-delimited text, suitable for pasting into a spreadsheet. |
| Export to file | Saves the report as a CSV file. A save dialog lets you choose the location and filename. |
The printed report uses a portrait layout with Account names on the left and amounts right-aligned. The report title includes the selected date when a specific date is chosen.
