I have set up a control account for a Captial account ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/manager1/original/3X/4/0/404a248b48619d0086a6309472abfb1f5f80d602.png) and I have made entries to it it has flowed through to the capital Accounts report Great works well but can I set it up so I can have drawings, funds intro, share of profit So in the balance sheet I can drill down and see what the account is made up of screen shot of balance sheet where capital account is sitting ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/manager1/original/3X/e/7/e7afc78738284e8d4dd16159f31001e759c00645.png) ---

You will need enter the drawings using a capital sub account and to drill down to the drawings transactions create a Capital Account Summary under Reports. ---

ok So what I have done is a journal entry to the current account I made as a control account ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/manager1/original/3X/4/6/4608b39a0e8db12f5962ac08da81728bef257e31.png) I want it in the balance sheet not the actual capital accounts So How do I get a report of that and Drawings and share of profit ? I dont seem to be able to find the Current Account - James in the custom reports or have I done it wrong If I try and put it to capital accounts as funds intro it says not found ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/manager1/original/3X/0/8/0837733f6076846f57ad4b038786ce701e321479.png) But I have it in the capital accounts ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/manager1/original/3X/7/0/7092708316b6d2a5f22e45381de3a7bd93175d32.png) What I would like if possible is To have the one account in the balance sheet Current account - James then be able to do a report with total of funds intro, Share of profit, Drawings, Account total Debit/credits if possible So have I not done it right from the start? The reason why I would like this is for continuation purposes from clients last accountant to me ---

You cannot show the capital sub accounts in the balance sheet. You can attach the Capital Account Summary to the other financial reports to supplement them. ---
