Use the period offsets with a rolling period if you want a comparison

Is it possible to set up a 12-month income statement comparison in Vantage? I don't want a rolling total, but a report that lists the P&L account amounts for January, February, March, etc. In other words, a side by side comparison. Do you use Number of Periods or Period Offset areas of the Column Detail tab in the Financial Report Designer screen to accomplish this?

Thanks in advance for any advice on this subject.

Yes, this is standard. You can do this using the Financial Report Designer.

Can you set up the column title so that it gives the actual name of the month being reported? In other words, the current reporting month is "March" but next month would be "April".
