Generate a Ledger Report

You can use this function to generate a ledger report, which can help you when you need to analyze a total broken down into parts at account or company level.

An amount shown in an individual account in the trial balance may require analysis in more detail. The ledger report breaks down the amount into its constituent parts if these are available. The constituent parts of an amount in the account are shown for all group subsidiaries or for a single company.

The report contains the same information as the Trial Balance report, as the trial balance shows eliminations distributed across the companies (normal setting).

Note: You must select the group currency to display all bookings.

The table shows which parts of the account that are analyzed in the ledger report:
