My reports show debits in brackets. Can I change this as the accounting convention I am used to is: debits are +ve and credits are -ve?

Hello nhb,

Welcome to the Community - thank you for your question!

Could you please send a screenshot of this within your reports, cutting out any confidential info if needed?

Thanks,

Talia

TYF your response. This is from the trial balance

This report is from the hyperlink in the trial balance

There is no indication whether the balance is a debit or credit. As it shows in the TB as a credit I would prefer to see the report with £(1,950.00).

This problem only seems to affect income accounts. In the account below the brought forward creditor and a cash receipt are shown as +ve, even though they are credits.

Whereas in expenses accounts brought forward creditors are shown as -ve and payments are shown as +ve. This is inconsistent and not in accordance with the accounting convention I have followed for 45 years!

Kind regards

NHB
