Trial Balance

The Trial Balance is a form of combined Balance Sheet and Profit & Loss report, showing balances for each Account but not debit and credit subtotals. You may export the Trial Balance for the whole year or for an arbitrary part of the year as a tab-separated text file, and it can then be imported for further processing for example by an Annual Report generating program.

Double-click 'Trial Balance' in the 'Exports' list to open the 'Specify Trial Balance Export' window.
