About Period-to-Date and Trailing Periods

Use period-to-date to create year-to-date, half-to-date, quarter-to-date, or month-to-date periods. To preserve the integrity of an analysis, "to-date" periods are not included in the Cash Flow Statements.

A Year-to-Date Total sums all preceding semi-annual, quarterly, monthly, or weekly periods into a previous annual period.
A Quarter-to-Date Total sums all preceding weekly or monthly periods into a previous quarterly period.

All financial accounts in period-to-date periods are calculated by default. You can view period-to-date periods in the Accounts spreadsheet or in Reports.
