Differences between printing from the Financial Statement Designer and printing from the Financial Statements icon
The Financial Statement Designer's print form is not identical to the Financial Statements form which appears when you choose the Financial Statements icon.
The Financial Statement Designer differences are as follows:
-
You can generate an audit information tab as well as account audit information in the first column of the report. (See Include.)
The audit information tab lists information such as the print ranges and any specified processing order.
-
You can create formulas for each value that appears in the report range instead of the values themselves. (See Include.)
This means that you can update the report simply by recalculating the spreadsheet. (Note that spreadsheet formulas make the spreadsheet a lot larger.)
-
If you generate a series of statements for a group of departments, the separate statements are generated in consecutive sheets in an Excel workbook. (See Report as.)
When you print a set of statements using the Financial Statements icon, the program repeats the report generation process for each account segment, printing a series of separate statement.
