Accounting Reports

Accounting Reports

Major accounting reports include the following:

1. Company and Accounts

General Ledger

Navigate to General Ledger under Accounts > Company and Accounts.

Every transaction has a Credit and Debit account, hence the General Ledger is a thorough report that includes every transaction that has been posted to every account.

The report is built using the GL Entry table, and it may be filtered using a variety of pre-defined options, including Account, Cost Centers, Party, Project, and Period, among others. This enables you to receive an accurate update for all postings made during a given period against any account. Each group's beginning and ending balances can be classified by Account, Voucher/Transaction, and Party. There is also the ability to review the sums in any other currency except the company's base currency in the case of multi-currency accounting.

2.2 Trial Balance

Get the Trial Balance by going to Accounts > Accounting Statements.

The account balances for all of your Accounts (including "Ledger" and "Group") for any given reporting period are listed in a trial balance, which is an accounting report. A corporation occasionally creates a trial balance, often at the conclusion of each reporting period. To check if the entries in a company's bookkeeping system are mathematically correct, a trial balance is generally produced. To guarantee that the entries are accurate for any particular period, the totals of the Debit and Credit columns must match. The report in ERPNext displays the following columns:

*As of the From Date, the opening debit balance is

*Opening (Cr): As of the selected period, the opening credit balance. Debit: The total amount owed against the account.

*Credit: The total amount credited to the account during the chosen period

*Closure (Dr): As of today's closing debit balance

*Closing (Cr): Current closing credit balance

Other settings include showing or hiding accounts with a zero balance, period closing entries, and P&L (Income & Expenditure) balances from previously closed fiscal years. The report's data are all presented in the company's base currency.
