Overview

A Ledger Statement provides a detailed view of all Lines recorded in a specific Ledger over a given period. It allows Business Owners to analyze Transactions within a Linked Account, helping them track spending patterns and identify unusual activity.

For example, if Operating Expenses are unexpectedly high, a Business Owner can review the Ledger Statement to pinpoint changes in spending and make informed decisions.

How to Generate a Ledger Statement

  1. Call the Retrieve the Ledger Statement endpoint with:
    1. Business ID
    2. Start Date
    3. End Date
  2. Use the returned data to structure the report as a list of transactions made in that ledger over the selected period.

P&L Best Practices

  • Filter by date range – Use a date picker with standard periods like months, quarters, and years to give users control.
  • Enable drill-down into Transactions – Users may want to inspect specific Transactions. Use the Journal Entry endpoints to provide detailed transaction data.
