Overriding values for a column

You can override the default company, account, or level for a column to show a side-by-side comparison of data in a report. For example, if you want to show account balances for company 4321 next to account balances for company 1234, then you would need to override the company in the second column. Use this procedure to override the default company, account, or level for a column.

Note: Report Writer uses a hierarchy for determining the order to override information.

See Hierarchy for using overrides.
