If you have, keep reading!</p> <p>One possible cause is the account is marked as a control account.&nbsp; “What is a control account,” you may ask.&nbsp; It is a GL account that summarizes details from a sub ledger, such as AP summary or an operating cash account.&nbsp; Control accounts appear summarized on the GL report by default.</p> <p>On the Format tab of the report parameter, highlight Detail.&nbsp; You will see a grid with several descriptions and checkboxes.&nbsp; Make sure the Show detail for control accounts checkbox is marked.&nbsp; Also, make sure the Summarize by source transaction checkbox is <strong>not</strong> marked, as this is another common cause for this scenario. </p> <p>Either one of these options may show more detail, so play around and see which shows the details you expect to see!<br /></p><img src="http://forums.blackbaud.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=40894" width="1" height="1">General LedgerGeneral Ledger Reportcontrol accountsummarized activity
