Select Report Columns

Select Report Columns

This option is found on the Enquiry window menu bar and enables you to select the columns to be included in the Enquiry report when printed.

Clicking on the icon will open a window containing a list of columns that can be included in the report. Tick the columns required.

Example

The example is taken from a Nominal Ledger Account Enquiry window.

Within the columns available for this example you will notice two options Batched and B.

Both will include a column to indicate if the transaction is currently held in the batch. If Batched is selected the column label will be "Batched" If B is selected, the column label will be abbreviated to "B" allowing more detail to be squeezed on to the report.

You should only select one.

For columns that may contain text, such as Detail, there is an option to Wrap the text within the field. This will allow text detail to be shown in full without being truncated or over-typing other report details.

The Wrap field will be checked by default.

If you have selected the Purchase Ledger system option to use automatic transaction references, you can select to print the Internal Ref. on your report.

Show/Hide Header Values on report

The drop-down list at the top of the window enables you to select to show or hide the Header values if the detail is expanded.

This enables you to streamline your report if the header values do not provide any additional information to the report.

However, selecting to hide the header values will extend the length of time taken to produce the report as the system has to search through every transaction to hide the header values.

Save and Reset

  • You may save your report column selection. This option is User and Enquiry window specific.

  • reset the report column selection to the default.

Both the save and the reset options will only be stored when you click the OK icon on the window. If you close the window using the Cancel, any changes you have made whilst the window was open will be lost.
