Activity breakdown
Audit transaction-level activity for accounts with advanced grouping and filtering capabilities.
The activity breakdown provides detailed, transaction-level information for the journal entry activity that affects specific accounts. This view helps you understand the accounting transactions and underlying business transactions that contribute to movement in account balances. You can use the activity breakdown for:
- Account reconciliation: Understand the specific transactions that contribute to account balances
- Audit preparation: Provide detailed transaction history for accounting periods
- Customer analysis: Analyze revenue patterns and activity for specific customers
- Product performance: Understand how different products or services contribute to revenue
- Discrepancy investigation: Audit unexpected account changes or balances
- Financial reporting: Support detailed financial analysis and reporting requirements
Accessing Activity breakdown 
Access the activity breakdown by clicking Net change amounts in the trial balance report. This lets you audit all the transactions that make up the net change for that account during the selected period.
The activity breakdown automatically inherits the date range, currency, and account context from the trial balance you’re navigating from.
Key features
The activity breakdown provides comprehensive transaction analysis with organization and filtering options:

- Invoice: Group entries by invoice to see all activity related to specific invoices
- Product: View activity organized by product for product-level performance analysis
Advanced filtering
You can filter the data by:
- Event type: Show only specific types of transactions with a comprehensive list of revenue events
- Customer: Focus on activity from specific customers using search functionality
- Invoice: View activity for specific invoices with intelligent search
- Product: Analyze activity for particular products or services
Export capabilities
You can download detailed reports in CSV format. Click Edit columns to select the columns to include in your export. If pagination limits the display, the export still includes the full dataset.
