Most systems don’t have a clean “current chart only” toggle on the P&L — it’s usually either “active only” (which causes gaps) or “all” (which pulls in old, inactive accounts). The closest practical workaround is to standardize one master chart of accounts, temporarily re-activate only the accounts you still want shown, run the reports, then deactivate them again.

In multi-company setups, the real fix is process-driven: align and lock the chart structure across entities, not just the report settings. That’s the approach we’ve seen work best in similar situations at Ledger Labs — once the chart is truly standardized, the P&Ls start lining up automatically without all the manual cleanup.
