Defining the report columns

A report can have up to twelve columns, depending on the width of the columns. Each column is identified by a 3 character column heading code.

You can use predefined columns, for example This Period Actual, This Period Budget, This Period Budget Variance, Year-to-Date Actual.

In addition to using the predefined column codes, you can define columns that are calculated at run time, based on other columns. The second character of a calculated column must be Z or V.

The third character of the column code specifies from which budget ledger (B-K) budget figures are to be taken, for example, PBB and YBB. It should be left blank for the actual ledger figures.

A spread of up to 13 period amounts can also be requested in place of the regular column codes.

You can leave columns blank to improve legibility.
