I would like to see something on this in the wiki. Just because Mac & windows don't have python and sql by default doesn't mean that the knowledge base should be dumbed down. On 12/11/2017 09:29 PM, John Ralls wrote: On Dec 11, 2017, at 4:41 PM, Charles Sliger wrote: On Mon, 2017-12-11

Thank you this helps a lot. 1. If I export to HTML and open in my browser, I am able to print (as PDF) the rather long and wide document budget report (12 periods). I scale the content so all of it appears on one page. (very small but it can be magnified 😊) 2. Copy and paste to a spreadshee

Thank you Derek, The inefficiency I referenced was in respect to having to make many accrual entries at the end and beginning of each month simply to shift the recognition of parts of invoices and bills to their proper periods that otherwise would not have to be done if the posting process allo

Hi. My "budget report" has 12 periods, thus is it quite wide. When I print it using "Export as PDF" or "Print" it only captures a small part of the report. Is there a way to format the printing of a Budget Report? Is there a way to print multiple pages of the Budget Report as a PDF?
