Set
Up Report Styles
How Do I...
In the Report Styles window, you can
create a new style that reports can appear in, or you can change an existing
report style. The Report Styles window lets you format a number of report
sections that appear on the report, such as report print date, company
name, or report totals.
What report sections
can I format?
Creating a new report style
- From the Reports
& Forms menu, select Report
Styles. Sage 50 displays the Report
Styles window.

tab, if it is not already selected.

toolbar button to clear the field.

field, enter a maximum 40-character name for the style you want to create.
- For each section that you want to appear in the
report, select the Show check
