The GL detail description field allows for 40 characters. The Detail Listing report only shows 29 characters and Source Journal report only shows 28 characters. Is there a way to display the entire field in the reports (they often have very large descriptions)?

If they export to Excel, the full description shows up for the Detail Listing report (only 30 chars for the Source Journal), but they'd like to know if there's a way to view the entire description in the report format without needing to export every time.

I believe the problem is one of trying to fit all of the characters onto a page.

Hi Rebecca:
If you are looking at just a single account, then the View button is a far superior alaternative to the GL Listing report. You can drill down on transactions and you can export exactly what you want to Excel using the ExcelDirect button.

Hi Rebecca,

Suggest that they use lower case instead of all caps.
