Account Activity Report
Report on balances for selected accounts.
Overview
The Account Balance report shows the current balance and reconciled 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. Check the accounts you want to include in the report. Two selection buttons are available:
- Select All Accounts -- Checks every account in the list.
- Clear Selection -- Unchecks all accounts.
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.
Columns
Two checkboxes control which columns appear in the report:
| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| Balance | The total balance of each account as of the selected date. |
| Reconciled | 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.
