Chart of Accounts Reviews

The Chart of Account Reviews list the chart balances for the 12 accounting periods in a year on one line. Only charts with balances are included. You can also list income and expense budgets in the same way.

The reviews include subtotals similar to those on financial statements (for more details, see Report Notes). You can use the reviews as supporting detail for financial statements because financial statements, when run for multiple branches, accumulate the balances into one chart total and because most lines on financial statements include multiple charts.
