A fast way to get your manager all the detail transactions he needs to "play" with is to create a financial statement with just the account s/he wants to see on it with the "Y" (YTD) spec code, and right mouse click on the figure displayed and select "Tx Details" from the context menu. Then use Excel Direct to send all the transactions to a spreadsheet.

You can select the fields you want from the transactions by choosing them in View | Customize | Settings.
