Acme uses report "option grids" to allow you to easily sort and filter report data.
Many of the reports have output that changes dramatically, based on the options you choose.
A Central Acme is a non-selling Acme that is used for purchasing as well as reporting on all store's sales and for communicating with a host accounting system if you have one.
Many report option grids are "sticky". They remember their last settings (per computer) so filling in the option grid is quicker after the first time. If you change computers and suddenly find a report "doesn't work" it may be that the options are "stuck" to someone else's preferences. Review all the options and run the report.

1.Preview Report button
