Reports

The commands on the Reports submenu provide listings of records maintained in the Nominal Ledger. These include lists of records maintained through the various forms and transactions generated as a result of journal postings and other transaction processes. Reports can be used to view information on your computer screen as well as printing. Most reports provide a number of options to determine the criteria, sequence and range of records reported.

All the reports can be viewed on your screen, printed or saved to be viewed later. In Opera 3 most reports can also be saved as Microsoft Excel spreadsheets. See the Getting Started - Printing and Reporting Help topic for details.
