Average Balance Audit Report

Review the detail activity which created the aggregate balances and related average balances for a set of books when average balance processing is enabled. This report displays detail activity, as well as daily average balance information for selected accounts for a specified range of dates.

Warning: You should generally use this report only to research specific questions about how General Ledger calculated the average balances for an account. Because of the nature of aggregate and average balance maintenance in General Ledger, a report requesting year averages-to-date for all balance sheet accounts could be very large.
