Can I compare two periods side by side?

Yes for the P&L. On the P&L report there's a Comparative toggle. Pick your reporting period (e.g. May 2026) and the comparative (e.g. May 2025, or "prior period" for April 2026). The report renders two columns side by side with variance % per row — useful for board packs and trend spotting. Comparative view for the Balance Sheet is a V2 follow-up; for now, run two Balance Sheet reports with different as-at dates and compare manually.
