Use Ledger account in Filter General Ledger when your review concerns one account. Select an account from the current company options, then apply the filters. Check the date range and other active filters before interpreting the resulting lines.
An account picker that cannot load is different from an account with no posted activity. Retry the company filter options or use the available full ledger view until the filter evidence can be confirmed. Do not select a similarly named account from another source as a substitute.
Open individual journal references when a line needs explanation. The account's running balance retains full account history, while the filter controls which matching posted lines and totals are included in the selected view. Read the report notice before comparing a filtered subtotal with a balance.
When exporting, retain the chosen account and date range with the file. If the purpose is to support a statement amount, make sure the ledger period matches the statement's period. A correct account selection alone cannot make two differently scoped reports directly comparable.
