Not possible with this report I'm afraid. Thanks for the clarifications.

The traditional multi-column report might be of some utility Good ideas, but going to a spreadsheet is not an option. I am doing monthly financial statements for 5 entities and need a quick ad hoc comparison of how each entity is doing from month to month and YTD this year compared to YTD last year and full year this year compared to full year last year. Choosing comparison start and end dates for this year and last year for the report would be ideal and give me the flexibility that I am looking for.
