Managing the Display of Your Trial Balance

Cette page est en cours de traduction. Elle sera mise à jour dès que son contenu sera disponible en français.

To help you work more efficiently with the trial balance, you can change several aspects of how the trial balance displays. The changes you make to the trial balance are retained while you are working within the engagement and are only visible to you. If you leave the engagement and later reopen it or manually refresh, the trial balance is returned to its original state.

Tip: If you need to reference other pages in the engagement, you can open the pages in separate browser tabs or windows. You can then move between tabs as needed or place them side-by-side in separate browser windows so you can compare them. Since you are already logged in to the application, you do not need to log in again to access the additional tabs or windows.

To change the display of your trial balance you can:

• Sort the trial balance. Click on a column header to sort the column in ascending or descending order. Click the column again to reverse the sort order.
• Change the width of a column. Click and drag a separator line between columns in the header row to resize the columns.
• Reorder the columns. Click and drag a column header to a new location in the header row to change the order of the columns.
• Pin or unpin a column. Pinned columns remain visible even when you scroll to the right in the trial balance. By default, the Account Name and Account Number columns are pinned. To pin additional columns, click and drag a column header to the left of the column divider line that extends to the top of the trial balance. To unpin a column, click and drag the column header to the right of this line.
• Show me how to create a trial balance view. You can add, update, and delete trial balance views while in an engagement and viewing the trial balance. Exporting the trial balance will ONLY export the default trial balance views.
  Note: See Setting Up Trial Balance Views for more information on setting up trial balance views.
• Show or hide columns in a trial balance. This option is not available in the consolidated view for consolidated engagements at this time. To choose which columns display in the trial balance, do the following:

  1. Cliquez sur la mission dans la page Liste de missions.

     Remarque : Consultez la rubrique Utiliser la page Liste de missions pour obtenir plus de renseignements sur l'utilisation des fonctions de pagination et de recherche pour trouver une mission dans la liste.

  2. Cliquez sur dans la barre de navigation et sélectionnez Balance de vérification.
  3. Click the tab for the trial balance you want to change.
  4. Hover your pointer over a column header until the icon displays, and then click the icon.
  5. Select the check box for each column you want to display in the trial balance. Clear the check box for each column that you want to hide.

     Note: The account number and account name columns cannot be hidden.

  6. Click outside the list of columns to close the columns window.
