Create the Base Report in Report Painter
Resume the tutorial by creating
the base report.
You will be choosing fields from the
first ACCOUNTS folder in the Object Inspector. This is where the
financial data resides. (The fields in CENTGL structure the hierarchy
in the Financial Report Painter.)
- Drag GL_ACCOUNT from
the first ACCOUNTS folder into the Report Painter window. (Since
the name Ledger Account is defined in the Master File, it appears
as the column title.)
- To assign a
report title, type the following in the Page Heading input area,
followed by a blank line to leave space between the heading and
the report.
Century Corporation Income Statement
For Period Ended: June 30, 2002
- Highlight the
heading text, right-click and choose Justify, and
then Center.
- Select Ledger
Account and click the For button.
That
is all you are going to do in Report Painter. You can do everything
else from the Financial Report Painter.
- Save your work
and click the Matrix tab to open the Financial
Report Painter.
Your report opens in the Financial Report Painter.
