Balance Sheet page breaks

Based on experimentation it appears page breaks in the Balance Sheet report are controlled by the "Page break after account" checkbox in "Maintain Chart of Accounts."

As it happens, I need different page breaks for the Balance Sheet report and the Income-Expense report.

Do I have to modify the Chart of Accounts every time I want to switch from one report to another in order to get the pages to break where I need them? Is there an easier way to do this?

Thanks,
Eden

The Balance Sheet and Income and Expense Report are going to report off of different account numbers in your chart of accounts. Balance sheet shows Asset, Liability, and Equity accounts while the I&E shows Income, Expense, and Transfer accounts.

Jeff,

Thank you for answering so quickly!

Yes, I see that the 2 reports show different items, but somehow that didn't register in my fuzzy little brain. :oops:

I've removed the breaks after the asset, liability, and equity accounts (where I had them previously) and left in the breaks after the income and select expense accounts and -- what do you know! -- both reports break as needed!
:D

Thanks!!!
