Nu Huynh edited comment on OFBIZ-6646 at 9/22/15 2:56 AM: ---------------------------------------------------------- @ Jacques: Hi. I'm not a developer. Is this the place for end users to report our issues and opinions? I ended up here thanks to Hans (from Antweb) @ Rong: I know there is no way at the moment and end users can create their own reports with Excel but if reporting is a very repetitive and tedious job, it will be very helpful to show all parent GL accounts and their balances (the second option that I suggest if customization is more complicated). For example, one of our accountants handle 20 departments and she has to prepare at least 2 monthly reports (BS & IS) for each of them within the first 5 days of a month. That is a total of 40 reports to do in 5 days of every month. was (Author: nuhuynh): @ Jacques: Hi. I'm not a developer. Is this the place for end users to report our issues and opinions?

They are main sections of our own reports. The standard format of > reports in Ofbiz is too condensed and the users do not have the option to > customize this. > I have tried to customize the Income Statement by creating some new GL > account classes e.g "Non Operation Expenses" via Entity Data Maintenance but > they don't show up in Income Statement. So I guess it is not that > straightforward to customize reports. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
