You use the line description after you define your column headings and column definitions. This tells the program what to put in each line. The maximum number for line descriptions, footers and headers is 200 (that is, 200 line descriptions, 200 footers, 200 headers).
Account Range: This allows you to specify a range of accounts for which you want to print information. If you want to select by account types, and you are unsure of the account numbers, leave these fields blank. This ensures that all the accounts are included that match the Account Types you want.
Account Types: This allows you to display only certain account types. You use account types to group accounts together for financial statements. Select an account type by checking the box to the right of the account descriptions. Tell me more about account types.
This collection of fields allows you to tell Sage 50 how you want the lines to look.
Font: This displays the Font window where you can select the style, size, and color of the font.
Alignment: If you are using tiered columns, you can choose to print the data on the right or left side of the tiered column by selecting right or left column.
Print: The choices are:
Detail: Every account within the range specified is printed. Sage 50 inserts the account description (from the chart of accounts) into any column with a Description source, and inserts the appropriate amount into any columns, which are defined to take amounts. If no accounts are found within the range, nothing is printed.
Summary: Amounts are determined by the most recent column definition but only the sums of all amounts are printed.
Rollup: You can enter a Rollup Mask that summarized a group of accounts into a single subtotal. These subtotals appear in any column defined to take amounts. The Account Number and Description that print are the number/description for the first account specified by the mask. (These only print if you have specified columns for Description and Account ID.) See Rollup Mask vs. Department Mask for more on Rollup Masks.
Header Text: This is enabled only if you chose Summary for the previous Print field. Enter the text to label the summary here.
Reverse: This specifies which sign prints with the amounts. If this box is checked, debits print with < > and credits print without < >. This only changes the way the numbers are printed, not the way they are calculated.
