Reports may be printed Normally, Group and Grand Totals Only, or Grand Totals Only. If you have a Dot Matrix printer, you may then specify whether the report should print in Condensed mode, and may specify if your printer is using Wide Paper. You may also print the report in Descending (rather than ascending) order.
You will then be allowed to specify a Lowest and Highest range for the report. This range will be based upon the sorting fields in the file.
If you check the Don’t Print Account Numbers box, the computer will not print the Accounts Numbers on this report.
If you check the Departmental box, the computer will print a different page for each department; otherwise the computer will consolidate all of the departments’ totals.
If you check the Separate Page For Liabilities box, the computer will print the liabilities on a different page than the assets.
If you check the Only Selected Accounts box, the computer will only print accounts that have the Print On Summary Report box checked. (For more information on the Print On Summary Report box refer to GL Chart Of Accounts Maintenance.)
