@jfirestone, apmuthu's answer is probably the easiest, have a look at the report extensions on his github acc. to see how they are constructed, look for the code that appears in all the extensions. Don't worry about the _init directory thats used for auto install, you can install it manually.

Then use reporting/rep109.php as the basis for your new extension, just rename it first, when you get it running then modify it to what you need and write your new header code

Also an ext does not modify the core FA files, so upgrades are not compromised

If you figured out you need to modify doctext and header2 you should be able to do it.

@kvvaradha, thinking out loud here, but this may be relevant... a function cannot be extended it seems, but a class can so looking at:-

File: \reporting\includes\reports_classes.inc
458: class Report
459: {
460:     var $id;
461:     var $name;
462:     var $ar_params;
463:     var $controls;
464:     
465:     function __construct($id, $name, $ar_params = null)
466:     {
467:         $this->id = $id;
468:         $this->name = $name;
469:         if ($ar_params) $this->set_controls($ar_params);
470:     }
471:     
472:     function set_controls($ar_params) {
473:         $this->controls = $ar_params;
474:     }
475:     
476:     function get_controls() {
477:         return $this->controls;
478:     }
479:     
480: }

So function get_controls is only used once in:-

File: \reporting\includes\reports_classes.inc
104:                     $st_params .= $this->getOptions($report->get_controls(), $report->id);

And in function getOptions is the line:-

File: \reporting\includes\reports_classes.inc
146:                 $ctrl = $this->get_ctrl('PARAM_'.$cnt, $type);

also in the same function is:-

File: \reporting\includes\reports_classes.inc
136:             foreach($this->ctrl_handlers as $fun) { // first check for non-standard controls

I'm struggling with my php knowledge, but has @joe/@janusz left us something here?

@apmuthu Thank you, guess I need to read the wiki more...

I hope its clearer now, & hopefully less posts on this subject... we shall see.

Hi,

Have you followed the instructions in the wiki?

Most users who are installing an extension for the 1st time forget or are confused about steps 3and 4. For you my guess is step 3, but could be step 4 if you have changed config setup to not show unaccesible items.

So what type of 'expense' are they? wages?

You have to give yourself access rights go to Setup -> Access Setup and select the role you are using.

There are two reports in Banking and General Ledger -> General Ledger Reports that have a column total for period selected by individual GL account.

The column headings are This Period and Period

@rafat, numerous text editors have search in file functionality(Notepad++ for one), and it takes seconds to carry out

What page are you trying to edit the items?

What can you edit or not edit?

Now you need to activate it....select the dropdown menu at the top

How long is it now?

I've seen 600 secs recomended as max, (setting to 0 is unlimited, but maybe other timeouts in http so beware) From my understanding its a security issue.

Does your host allow changes?

This SE post is interesting, can you add a variable based on number of records?
