X2/Z2 Reports: Period-to-Date Reports
Some reports also provide identical but separate period to date reports. These reports
maintain a separate set of totals which may be allowed to accumulate over a period of days,
weeks, months, or even years. X2 reports read period to date totals without resetting, and Z2
reports read period to date totals and reset them to zero. Period to date totals are updated
each time a Z1 report is completed.
The following example shows how the net sales total (from the financial report) would report
on each report throughout each day of a weekly reporting period. Note how the daily totals
are conveniently accumulated in the periodic report.
