Good point.
I select all the expenses and filter out zero balances - that cuts it
down a bit in the first instance.
THAT is a report option (for that report). You can deselect (uncheck)
"include accounts with zero balances"
I never used this, preferring instead to export and then edit
away those zero balances that were irrelevant. Remember, for the BoD of
an organization (and the public "annual report". SOMETIMES want to see
an account where zero because unexpected, probably going to be annotated
wit an explanation
I suppose it is really down to discipline to make sure you check all
the accounts are selected.
It is a simple act to unselect then select all again and to save the
report.
Recognition beats recall. If you SEE an account better able to
decide "oh, that should be included too" (say following the split of an
account)
In my previous job I made check lists to ensure I didn't forget to
perform some function for whatever was being processed,
be it payroll, HR, accounts, IT or man management. They are invaluable
for complex processes; I provided them
for my staff too, though getting them to use them was another matter.
Same here, except never had a staff. Even back in my working days.
Maybe managed the project, but not the people assigned to get the work
done (so I didn't have to rate people, etc.).
