All Expenses Report

Problem

In versions 3.8 and earlier of the Goldenseal accounting software program, the All Expenses report was rounding values to the nearest dollar. Some users found this confusing.

We now show values rounded to the nearest penny.

  4. Double-click on any number column in the report table (the large rectange in the middle of the layout).
  5. Enter Nearest Penny into the Data Rounding and Total Rounding popup fields.
  6. Click OK.
