I would like to see the ability to enter mutliple account numbers for a gl detail report that aren't conveniently in a range. If anyone ever used Platimun software, hopefully you will remember what I mean. Right now, for example, for my payroll accounts that I need to allocate out, I have to run about 4 different GL details. It would be nice to enter the accounts I need, some single accounts, some in ranges, all one one report.

It does have limited capacity to enter multiple values in the selection screen with "Equal To". See "Enter Multiple Values using Separators" using help at the lower right of the report Screen. We have a number of clients who save versions of the GL Detail Report (and others) using this feature.
I agree, it would be nice to have an account linking facility similar to what was available in the old character based financial statement program or at least add the List Operand available in some other places.
And for more complex groupings, check out roll up codes in general ledger.
The just released Sage Intelligence Report Designer Add-In in Sage 100 will cater for this nicely by allowing ranges and single accounts on each row of your report.
