Most reports can be filtered by date range, account, card, and source journal. If you're looking for something specific within a large report, the Wildcards feature lets you filter by partial account numbers or card IDs. And if you run the same set of reports regularly, you can batch them — see Reports for Your Accountant for how to set up Report Batches.
