Effect of changing Financial Report Template setting for GL

What is the effect of changing the Financial Report Template setting for “Include GL accounts” from “by category” to “explicitly” and back to “by category”?

When you change a Financial Report Template setting for “Include GL accounts” from by category to explicitly, the captions are no longer associated with the general ledger account categories and subcategories such as asset, liability, income, and so forth. This allows you to explicitly place accounts of any account category under any caption.

When you change the setting on that same template back to by category, you must reassign general ledger account categories to the captions.

Follow these steps:

1. Run General Ledger/Configure/Financial Report Templates.
2. Open the report template folder and select the template you want to change.
3. Press Tab to move to the right pane for editing the template.
4. Make sure that Include GL accountsis set to by category.
5. Highlight the first caption under which accounts appear, to which you want to reassign the appropriate general ledger account category.
6. Right-click/Modify or press F2 to open the caption properties window.
7. Select the appropriate category from the Category drop-down list and click the OK button.
8. Repeat for each caption under which accounts appear.
9. Click OK and Save Changes.
