Skip Commands

This section explains how to use the Skip menu command to refine a selection of accounts or transactions, produced by the Find command.

NOTE-- This feature is available in all versions of Goldenseal small business software.

Skip

The skip command allows you to temporarily remove records from a found set. Use it to "tidy up" when a find shows you more items than you want to see.

To skip an item, follow these steps:

Scroll to the item that you'd like to temporarily remove.
Choose Skip from the Edit menu, then choose This Item from the submenu.
The item will be removed from the found set.

HINT-- When you skip a record, the record is not deleted-- it is just removed from view. You will see it again when you use the Find All command, or when you do another Find that includes it.

Skip Multiple

To skip several items, follow these steps:

Scroll to the first item you'd like to temporarily remove.
Choose Skip from the Edit menu, then choose Multiple Items from the submenu.
Enter the number of records you'd like to skip.

Skip Found Items

To skip all of the found items and show the items not found, choose Skip from the Edit menu, then choose All Found Items from the submenu.

HINT--If you want to print just a few unrelated items or combine them in a report, you can skip them, and then skip All Found Items. You can also use the Flag Box to mark a group of unrelated items for use in a report.
