Accounting › Ledgers & Principles
Multi-GAAP Comparison
The same account under every principle, side by side, with the difference against the leading ledger. One query, because assembling it two ways on two screens is how two GAAP numbers come to exist.

The rules that apply here
Everything on this screen obeys the platform rules rather than rules of its own. The ones worth knowing before you use it:
- Narrowing a list — search, conditions, sort, totals, export and saved views.
- What may be changed — the five grounds a record may not be edited on.
- Companies and business units — what the switcher above this list is doing to it.
