Analytical Balance
This report is similar to the
Trial Balance, but with the addition of debit and credit balances for each Account. The paper printout in addition shows the accumulated balances for the financial year.

- Period
- Paste Special
Reporting Periods setting, System module
- Enter the period to be covered by the report. The default value is the first period in the Reporting Periods setting.
- Accounts
- Paste Special
Account register, Nominal Ledger/System module
- Range Reporting Alpha
- Limit the report to a single Account, or range of Accounts.
- Object
- Paste Special
Object register, Nominal Ledger
- Enter an Object here if you want the balances in the report to be calculated from Transactions with that Object only. Unlike most Nominal Ledger reports, you can only enter a single Object here: if you enter a number of Objects separated by commas, the report will be empty.
- Fwd Bal Date
- Specify here the date for which the Forward Balances are to be calculated. The default is the first date of the period specified for the report.
- Groups Only
- With this option on, the report will only show subtotals for groups of Accounts, grouped using the first digit of the Account Code. If the option is off, balances for each Account are shown together with the group subtotals.
- List Transactions
- With this box checked, the Transaction Numbers of all Transactions that fall within the reporting period, together with debit and credit totals, will be listed at the bottom of the report.
- Sub A/C Totals
- This option takes the group totalling described for the Groups Only check box above a stage further. It displays subtotals for groups of Accounts whose three initial digits are the same. For example, the totals for Accounts 3011, 3012 and 3014 will be shown as a subtotal. The single-digit group total (for Accounts starting with 3 in the example) will be shown as well.
