Running the Ledger report

Pull a detailed account-by-account transaction history for any date range.

Jul 11, 2026

The Ledger report is the detailed transaction register for all your accounts. It shows every debit and credit posted to each account over a date range, helping you verify account balances and track individual transactions.

Before you start

  • You need permission to access Reports.
  • Decide your date range (start and end dates).
  • Optionally choose specific accounts to focus on, or run it for the whole chart.

Steps

  1. Go to Reports. Open in Usystems

  2. Look for the Ledger report in the reports list and click it.

  3. You will see a form with filter options. Enter your Start Date and End Date.

  4. (Optional) Under Accounts, select specific accounts you want to see. Leave blank to include all accounts.

  5. Click Run Report (or the equivalent button to execute).

  6. The report will load in a table format below the filters.

Accounting impact

The Ledger report shows all posted transactions (debits and credits) for each account. It does not create any entries itself—it is read-only. The opening balance, all transactions, and the closing balance for each account appear in order by date.

Tips & common mistakes

  • Large date ranges may take longer to load. If you are pulling a full year, the report may need a moment.
  • Use the filters to narrow focus. Searching by account or date range makes the report easier to scan.
  • Opening and closing balances. The ledger displays the running balance after each transaction so you can verify your own records.
