The appearance and format of some Nominal Ledger reports can be changed to suit your specific requirements. This is known as changing the report's definition. The reports for which this facility is available are the Balance Sheet, Key Financial Ratios, Profit & Loss Report and VAT Report.

To change a report definition, first select 'Settings' from the File menu and double-click 'Report Settings' in the subsequent list. Then, highlight a report name in the list on the left-hand side of the 'Report Settings' window and click the [Definition] button. The subsequent definitions windows are described on the pages describing the Balance Sheet, Key Financial Ratios, Profit & Loss Report and VAT Report.

The [Definition] button can only be used with the four reports named above. The remaining three buttons can be used with all reports, in all modules. If you change to another module using the Modules menu in the usual way, the list of reports on the left-hand side of the 'Report Settings' window will change appropriately. Highlight a report in the list and then click a button, as described below.

When you have finished working with the 'Report Settings' window, close it by clicking the close box.

Select Printer: If you are using a Macintosh, the [Select Printer] button can be used to re-direct the output from the highlighted report to the modem port, where you can connect a serial (PC) printer (e.g. a dot matrix printer for printing on pre-printed stock of pin-feed paper).
Page Setup, Remove Page Setup: The [Page Setup] button allows you to set the page size, number of copies and other printer options for the highlighted report. These settings will be used whenever the report is printed. Windows users can also use this function to choose the printer on which the report is to be printed. Click the [Remove Page Setup] button to revert to standard.
