By "hiding" do you actually mean not including them by unchecking them on the configuration page? As you realize, that is not hiding them, it is not including them at all. I think one way to describe what you want is to have separate "include" and "display" checks for each account/category/... Have you tried exporting the report to excel? It would still be work, but not require manually redoing the sums. Yes, I do actually mean not including them by unchecking them on the configuration page. I do realize that for now it is not only hiding them, but not including them at all : this is my concern since I believe I'm not supposed to suppress an account in a balanced double entry book. Choosing betwin "include" and "display" checks for each account/category/... would be perfect. I will definitely consider exporting my reports to open office : I believe this will be the best workaround for me now. As I'm working on a calc sheet as a workaround, I'm also considering this : there could be 2 types of amounts in each account / categorie : the amount of the account / categorie itself AND the cumulative amount of all sub accounts / categories of each of them. This sounds great to me : Example : Account : amount / cumulative ammount Assets : 0 / 101,000 Buildings : 0 / 100,000 Building 1 : 10,000 / 10,000 Building 2 : 90,000 / 90,000 Money : 0 / 1,000 Check account : 500 / 500 All saving accounts : 0 /1,000 saving account 1 : 500/ 500 saving account 2 : 500 / 500 Credit card : - 500 / -500 (assuming that credit card has been set as a sub-asset with a negative value, and not as a liability) (In reply to Hugo from comment #2) While I am not formally trained in accounting, I don't think there is any problem suppressing accounts in a report. In fact, I don't see this as suppressing anything, you are just reporting summary information, not full details. KMM is a double entry accounting software : if you use it accordingly, all entries and outs should balance. If an account is suppressed, you're then off balance. |
