\f0\fs28 \cf0 @c -n, --collapse register: collapse transactions with multiple postings\
\
When multiple postings relate to a single transaction, they are reported\
as part of that transaction. For example, in the case of @file\{sample.dat\}:\
\
@example\
ledger reg -- book\
@end example\
\
Reports:\
\
@smallexample\
2004/05/29 Book Store Expenses:Books $20.00 $20.00\
Liabilities:MasterCard $-20.00 0\
(Liabilities:Taxes) $-2.00 $-2.00\
@end smallexample\
\
All three postings are part of one transaction, and as such the transaction\
details are printed only once. To report every transaction on a single\
line, use @option\{-n\} to collapse transactions with multiple postings:\
\
@example\
ledger -n reg -- book\
@end example\
\
Reports:\
\
@smallexample\
2004/05/29 Book Store <Total> $-2.00 $-2.00\
@end smallexample\
\
In the balance report, @option\{-n\} causes the grand total not to be\
displayed at the bottom of the report.\
\
@c -s, --subtotal balance: show sub-accounts; other: show subtotals\
\
If an account occurs more than once in a report, it is possible to\
combine them all and report the total per-account, using @option\{-s\}.\
For example, this command:\
\
@example\
ledger -B reg ^assets\
@end example\
\
Reports:\
\
@smallexample\
2004/05/01 Checking balance Assets:Bank:Checking $1,000.00 $1,000.00\
2004/05/01 Investment balance Assets:Brokerage $1,500.00 $2,500.00\
2004/05/14 Pay day Assets:Bank:Checking $500.00 $3,000.00\
2004/05/27 Credit card company Assets:Bank:Checking $-20.00 $2,980.00\
@end smallexample\
\
But if the @option\{-s\} option is added, the result becomes:\
\
@smallexample\
2004/05/01 - 2004/05/29 Assets:Bank:Checking $1,480.00 $1,480.00\
Assets:Brokerage $1,500.00 $2,980.00\
@end smallexample\
\
When account subtotaling is used, only one transaction is printed, and the\
date and name reflect the range of the combined postings.\
\
@c -P, --by-payee show summarized totals by payee\
\
With @option\{-P\}, postings relating to the same payee are\
combined. In this case, the date of the combined transaction is that of the\
latest posting.\
\
@c -x, --comm-as-payee set commodity name as the payee, for reporting\
\
@option\{-x\} changes the payee name for each posting to be the same\
as the commodity it uses. This can be especially useful combined with\
other options, like @option\{-P\}. For example:\
\
@example\
ledger -Px reg ^assets\
@end example\
\
Reports:\
\
@smallexample\
2004/05/29 $ Assets:Bank:Checking $1,480.00 $1,480.00\
2004/05/01 AAPL Assets:Brokerage 50 AAPL $1,480.00\
50 AAPL\
@end smallexample\
\
This reports shows the subtotal for each commodity held, and where it\
is located. To see the basis cost, or initial investment, add\
@option\{-B\}. Applied to the example above:\
\
@smallexample\
2004/05/29 $ Assets:Bank:Checking $1,480.00 $1,480.00\
2004/05/01 AAPL Assets:Brokerage $1,500.00 $2,980.00\
@end smallexample\
\
@c -E, --empty balance: show accounts with zero balance\
\
The only other options which affect summarized totals is @option\{-E\},\
which works only in the balance report. In this case, it shows\
matching accounts with a zero a balance, which are ordinarily\
excluded. This can be useful to see all the accounts involved in a\
report, even if some have no total.}
