The Accounting Summary Report and the Inventory Valuation Summary Report are required for tax purposes. The results occur in real time, which means that they are only valid on the precise time and day that they were produced. If you miss the calendar year-end or fiscal year-end deadline for creating the reports, contact Paladin Customer Support to retrieve the data. It is also beneficial to create a Period Comparative Revenue Report.
