Displaying reports

Reports and forms > Using reports > Choosing what you want to do with the report > Displaying reports

Like printing a report on paper, displaying a report is affected by your entries and selections in the Page Setup window. If necessary, use the scroll bars in the Screen Reports window to view the entire report.

You can display only one report at a time. If you attempt to display a report when another report already is displayed on the screen, the first report's Screen Reports window will close before the second report is displayed.

If you want to email, fax or save to disk (choosing among a variety of formats) the report that's displayed, you can use the Send To button; the Customize button allows you to determine how much information you want to print. Once you're in the Report Customization window, the Design button allows you to choose the fields you want to print; and the Format button allows you to change a report's appearance.

If you chose to use Microsoft Excel with MYOB OfficeLink when you installed AccountEdge, you can click the Send To button and select Excel from the list to automatically display your report in Excel.

You can also view more detail about a particular report by "zooming" to the detail from the Screen Reports window. To do this, move your mouse pointer over a piece of information in the Screen Reports window about which you want to see more detail. The mouse pointer will change into a magnifying glass.

When you see this magnifying glass, click your mouse button; the window used to enter the information you clicked on will appear, displaying the report information in more detail. When you're finished viewing the detailed information, close the window to return to the Screen Reports window.
