Opening basic format reports for editing and reformatting
Use the basic formatting tools (accessed from the Report fields and formatting tab on the New Reports page) to edit and reformat existing basic reports.
If you’re unsure whether the report you’re modifying contains custom formatting, check with the author of the report or your administrator.
All MYOB master reports contain custom formatting, so we recommend that you do not modify these reports.
