We’ve recently been implementing Microsoft Dynamics GP for a manufacturing company in England. When verifying that opening balances had imported correctly, the user reported that not all of the rows in Management Reporter were displaying an account description. A quick check around and I found a blog post from nJevity covering this exact subject.
Typically Management Reporter is run only to show posted transactions, but you can also set it to include unposted transactions. In this testing , we were returning both posted and unposted as we had imported the opening balances, but not yet posted them in case any changes were required.
The rows which included only unposted transactions did not display the account descriptions, but rows with even a single posted transaction did. As soon as the opening balances were verified and posted, all rows did display the account description. As the client would not usually be reporting on unposted activity, this was deemed a non issue.
