I have created a profit and loss statement for 12 months, in this order:
1-2017: 01-01-2017 to 31-01-2017
2-2017: 01-02-2017 to 28-02-2017
3-2017: 01-03-2017 to 31-03-2017
etc
If you then display the profit and loss statement, the following is shown, both on the statement itself as on the list of all the profit and loss statements:
That’s the way that the report works. That heading comes from the first column dates, in your case 01-01-17 to 31-01-17, all other columns are then comparisons to the first column.
