Empty option of general ledger and trial balance
Request to rework the options for generating a balance report.
Today there is there are the follwing two options
- Empty account, and
- Posted move
I suggest, instead, something like the following:
- include opening balance for the period selected
- for the fiscal year as well (only if period as well)
- only posted moves
- hide accounts with balance = 0
- only if no moves in period (but only if balance = 0 as well)
This should permit most all permutations of a general or periodic balance.
It may be useful to have by default the opening balance of the period selected as
well as the opening balance for the fiscal year, which is probably the most intuitive
for general balance reports.
As for hide accounts with balance = 0, I believe the default should be with
no moves in period by default which, when coupled with including opening balances
allows to see opening outstanding balances which has since been reconciled.
Naturally this option still prunes most of the uninteresting accounts.
It is conceivable that somebody might wish for all accounts with balances = 0, even
those that had moves in the period, to be hidden as well.
