General Ledger Setup
Once in the General Ledger Setup, choose the "Show more" option in the General tab. This will reveal a set of customizable features, including the pivotal "Show Amounts" setting.
Show Amounts Options
The "Show Amounts" setting offers three distinct options: "Amount Only," "Debit/Credit Only," and "All Amounts." Let's delve into the details of each:
Amount Only: Description: Displays the Amount and Amount (LCY) fields in Journals and Ledger Entries windows. Application: Ideal for those who prefer a simplified view of financial data.
Debit/Credit Only: Description: Exhibits the Debit Amount, Debit Amount (LCY), Credit Amount, and Credit Amount (LCY) fields. Application: Suited for users who require a more detailed breakdown of debit and credit amounts.
All Amounts: Description: Shows all available amount fields, providing a comprehensive view of financial data. Application: Useful for those who need a detailed, comprehensive overview of financial transactions.
Tooltip Explanation
The tooltip associated with the "Show Amounts" field clarifies the purpose of each option, aiding users in making informed choices based on their specific reporting needs.
Special Note for General Journals
It's crucial to note that the "Show Amounts" setting on the General Journals page is only applicable in "Show More Columns" mode, ensuring that users can fully leverage this feature when needed. In the Screenshot that is attached under, you can see that Show More Column is not enabled so you can see that even in the "General Ledger Setup" the field is set to the "All Amounts", still I cannot see the all fields explained above in "All Amounts".
Conclusion
In conclusion, the "Show Amounts" option in General Ledger Setup empowers users to tailor their financial data display. By understanding and configuring this feature, organizations can ensure that their financial reporting aligns seamlessly with their operational requirements.
