How do I print a Cash Flow Statement?

This support note applies to:

  • AO Classic General Ledger (AU)
  • AO Classic (NZ)
Article ID: 28151

Following is information regarding how to print a Cash Flow Statement.

Cash Flow Statement

The accounts detailed below are based on the MYOB Standard Chart of Accounts. The report and accompanying note have been prepared on a GST-inclusive basis. The Cash Flow Statement (report 400) and related note (2020 CASHFLOW) are included in the following templates:

  • 10 Sole Trader (Livestock)
  • 10 Sole Trader Template
  • 12 Partnership (Livestock)
  • 12 Partnership Template
  • 15 Small Co. (Livestock)
  • 15 Small Co. Template
  • 18 Trust Template
  • 18 Trust Template (Livestock)
  • 23 Large Company

To generate the correct figures, you must have values for the previous years' closing balance. For example, if you create a new ledger and enter opening balances for the current year (for example, 2007), you need to ensure that:

  • you have entered the closing balances for the previous year (2006)
  • previous year (2006) opening balances correspond to the closing balances for the year before (2005).
