Note: 
Performance Consideration. If your implementation chooses to use this report, you may consider adding an index to the CI_​FT table on ACCOUNTING_​DT to aid in performance. When making this decision, carefully weigh the benefit of improving report performance against the possible degradation to the performance of day-to-day processing as a result of defining a new index. In addition, many companies opt to create a reporting database that is a shadow of production to ensure that indexes defined to benefit reports may be created without any affect on the production environment.
