Phyllis, The Account Smmary lists the balances at a specific date for specified accounts which you set in the General tab of the Edit->Report Options dialogue. If you choose the Date and set it to 31/7/24. It doesn't list the changes to the accounts in the month but by producing a report for the previous months balances and subtracting them you can get the changes in a month. This requires importingeach monthly balance report into spreadsheets then subtracting them toget the changes
You could try generating a Transaction report for the period selecting the monthly subtotal in the General options and set the date range for the month in the General tab. There is an option in the Sorting tab of the report options to not display the individual transactions and just the totals for each account. If you select more than one accountin the Accounts tab of the options you should get the monthly totals for each account Unfortunately it does not sub total the debits and credits separately which would be nice. The grand total is displayed in either the debit or credit column depending on whether the sum represents a debit or credit change in the balance. You possibly want to clarify exactlty what information you want or need to present in the monthly reports first then work out how to obtain it and customise the reports to your needs.
