Income Statement - No SubAccounts option 

When the “Show SubAccounts” option is unchecked in the Income Statement report, only “Parent” accounts will be reported and the dollar amounts will only include those departments requested.

Here is a typical setup of parent/children accounts: 



Prior to version 1.22, if the user only wanted to select some of the departments for reporting, they were forced to report sub-accounts.  When only a couple of departments were selected, the parent account was
reported with zero dollar amounts even though it was not one of the selected departments.  In this example, the departments selected to run the income statement were Parts and Service: 



With this enhancement, you will now be able to select not to show SubAccounts when only some of the departments are requested for reporting.  When this option is selected, only the parent account will be
reported and the dollar amounts will only be for the requested departments.

In this example, selecting the same departments, it would look like this: 



How To: Go to My reports> GL Reports> Income Statement.  When running the Income statement report for a select group of departments, uncheck “Select All Departments” and then check the boxes of the departments you wish to include.  If you do not wish to see the “children accounts” make sure that the “Show SubAccounts” checkbox is unchecked.
