Trial Balance Report: provides a quick check of the balances in each account and verifies that debits equal credits. It does not provide any detail for the accounts.
Balance Sheet Report: provides current data on the financial condition of the company. Accumulations to asset, liability, and equity accounts are included in this report.

Reprint Posting Report: describes postings from any integrated module. This feature is valuable if you misplaced the General Leger posting audit report after you posted transactions.
Spreadsheet Export: gives you the ability to export Actual and Budget numbers for all accounts from the General Ledger, by account, period and amount types. This creates a quick and simple way to extract General Ledger information for additional reporting purposes, as well as assisting in the reconciliation process.
Consolidating Ledgers: if you maintain records for more than one company, you may find it beneficial to combine the account information contained in the general ledgers of each company into a single ledger, allowing you to print the following reports using the consolidated information: Chart of Accounts, Trial Balance, Balance Sheet, Income Statement, and Budget Reports.
