Re: Financial Reporter ver 1.16.55.1057 from Ledger 8.0C (05 03 21)

Ledger consists of Dept. "blank" and Dept. "2".

There seems to be a small problem when trying to use FR Statement Groups to print a Blank Department.

I tried several different configurations of the Departments area of the Statement Groups' Item definition with the following results.

<> One Spec with "Consolidated" and "All Departments" checked - Blank Department ignored all together

<> One Spec with "Consolidated" and each "Department" checked individually - Consolidated printed OK then what I assume should have been the Blank Dept. printed with no detail and $0 totals and the area where the Dept. Name should have been was blank. Dept. 2 was ignored all together.

<> Spec duplicated so that there were 3 separate "item" references within the group where first was to print Consolidated - OK. Second was to print Blank Dept. - This time the dept. details and totals printed OK except that the Dept. Name in the title area was blank. Third was to print Dept. 2 - OK.

I believe that any of the above should have given me what I was looking for - 3 Statements, A Consolidated followed by each Dept.

Let me know if I may be doing something wrong or maybe there's a small bug.

Thanks & Regards, Peter

BTW - Opening the spec in FR and printing the Blank Dept. works fine. It's just the Statement Group printing that's a problem.

I see the scenario you are talking about with printing financial statements with a blank department and the 'Print Statement Groups' function. I got the same results in the 3 methods you chose to print. I imagine that this is something to address in a future release.

As a workaround - you can use the Departmental Print function to get the 'blank' department report to print as expected. I tested this and it prints as I expected it to.
