    Note: Every client may use the software slightly differently so it is not possible to provide a definitive list of columns to select. It is recommended to look through the data carefully to ensure you are selecting the correct columns based on the entries your client has made and the fields they are using.

  5. Click the Filter icon at the top of the screen.
  6. Click New to create a new filter.
  7. Give your filter a name (eg. Financial Year 2020).
  8. Select column “Financial Year Start Date”.
  9. Select condition “Is Equal To”.
  10. Enter the value to show your required financial year starting date (eg. 01/01/2020).
  11. Click Save.
