Hiding and Re-ordering columns in an Automatic Document

Once created, most automatic documents can be customized to show only those columns you wish display in the order in which you wish to display them.

  1. While in the automatic document, from the View menu, select Reorder Columns.
  2. In the Active Columns box, select the column(s) you want to move or hide. The Hidden Columns box lists any columns that will not display in the browse window. Do one of the following:
  • To move the column(s), drag the selection to the new location.
  • To hide the column(s), drag the selection to the Hidden Columns box.
  1. Click OK.

Columns are re-ordered based on the order in the Active Columns box. To return to the original order of the automatic document, click Default.

  • For some reports, such as the Balance Sheet with active / prior period and year to date balances, columns within a report are grouped together and can be reordered or rearranged as a collection of columns only.
  • If all annotation columns are hidden, annotation no longer prints if the document is printed.
  • Right-click within a column and select Freeze | Column Header of Full Header to have the header remain visible when scrolling through a report.
