I was trying to run a YTD Detailed General Ledger for my accountant through the end of the 3rd quarter in mid October. But there was no "Selected Periods" option for that report, only YTD (through today's date) or quarter by quarter.
Can anyone tell me how they get that?

I now run one on a quarterly basis and I keep those instead of having a complete YTD. I do not believe in wasting all that paper to re-run at the end of the year.

I've used "audit trail" under report section of General Ledger. You can run it by period and it totals by period.

The only way I know to run the G/L through the end of a period is one month or one quarter at a time (besides the YTD feature). I would love to hear the answer to Ann Marie's question, if anyone knows.

You can run an audit trail through the General Ledger section. Change the period to Selected Periods. Indicate that you would like January through September. Make sure the date range is large so you don't leave off anything.

I did that but my CPA didn't like it. They also mentioned that any year end adjustment entries done after December 31st will not show up correctly.
And, unfortunately, I don't think the audit report (by period) is what they are looking for either.

The only reason they would not show up is because you limited the date range on the report. Brian Woolard mentioned this in his reply to "Make sure the date range is large so you don't leave off anything". This is a common mistake on accounting reports that utilize both a period AND a date range. To eliminate the date range, print the report for the entire date range available in C&P, from 1/1/80 through 12/31/79 (this is January 1, 1980 through December 31, 2079). Financials ignore the date and only look at the period of the transactions, but the audit trail report looks at both. Setting a large date range like this will exclude the date as a limiting factor (esp. If someone accidentally back or forwarded dated a transaction).
