    Hi KellyWei 


    If you are in the Find Transactions window it will show you the transaction that is recorded, you would be able to click the arrow of that transaction to see the relevant transaction relating to that. If you want additional information into the accounts and amounts involved in that transaction you can recap it (Edit>>Recap transaction) or depending on the transaction view the transaction in the Transaction Journal.

     

    In terms of the Profit and Loss reporting, if it was me I would be looking at running the Account Transactions [Cash] report and comparing that with the Account Transactions [Accrual] report. These reports will show you the individual transactions against each account. If a transaction is not included on the one report but is on the other it is likely the cause of that difference.
