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


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.

To create a trial balance view, do the following:

  1. In an engagement, navigate to the trial balance page.

  2. Select which trial balance tab you want to create a custom view for, then make any desired changes to the trial balance.

Note: You will initially be on the default view for each trial balance.

  • Resizing a column, hiding or showing a column, moving a column’s position, and sorting are acceptable trial balance changes that will be saved in the trial balance view.

  1. After a change has been made, click Save New View.

  2. Enter a view name and click Save.

  • View names must be unique within each trial balance tab – Financial or Tax.

  1. Your view will be saved and applied to the trial balance until you change it.

Notes:

  • For consolidated engagements, trial balance views will be saved on the consolidated level and the subsidiary level. This will allow you to create different sets of views that will remain separate from each other.

  • For interim engagements, trial balance views created in one period will be shared across all periods and will retain which trial balance tab they were created in.
