How do I print reports when some pages print too small?

Some browsers (like Firefox) may open up PDFs using their own PDF plugin viewer which does not print properly. We recommend downloading the report, or configuring your browser to open the report in Adobe. See these instructions on configuring your browser to run with the Adobe plugin.

How do I get a list of Object Codes or Accounts?

Use the Chart of Accounts Inquiry. You can filter by organization for a list of Accounts and filter for only Expense Object Codes.
