You can navigate to Banking and General Ledger tab and select Reports. Then you can run a Balance Sheet or Profit and Loss Statement.

There are also other reports for download in the download reports section.

Not sure what you mean by "Financial Statement".  Could you explain a little more please?

Maybe you can use some of the downloadable reports from Download Reports page.

I suspect you really need some more definition to move forward on this.  P&L and Balance Sheet are fairly standard across small-medium sized businesses, (particularly because the owners are far more interested in management accounts than the end-of-year reporting) but the statements on cash flows and retained earnings are rather more fluid.  As an an example of cash flow,

company 1 may have:

Operations: $1000
Investing:  $(2000)
Financing:   $2500
Net Flow:    $1500

Company 2 may have:

Operations:      $1000
Shares Inv:      $1000
Currency Inv: $(3000)
Financing:         $2500
Net Flow:          $1500


Same story, different words - but each is as viable as the other.
