Ability to display negative numbers as positives
Detail description of the enhancement that is being requested:
We have numerous requests to have costs displayed as positive numbers but aggregate as negative. The current workarounds are very difficult
To provide more clarification, could you please explain how you hope the enhancement would assist in your business process(es)?:
As simple solution would be to allow a “positive” display format so that the negative number is displayed as positive. The top right box showing the number should still show the real negative, but this would simplify the reporting modules hugely

Please please! Accounting team is constantly asking to change their view so they can look at a cash flow statement the way they would normally. All it would take is to add a "NO SIGN" to the negative view format!!

@MirBorishkevich Went through a similar build requirement recently, and found the following discussion from a few years back to be very helpful.

@mfriedman Thanks for sharing. This works when you can keep the account list small or the parent points to a minimum, but we have thousands of accounts and hundreds of parent points. So the fake account rollup is not maintainable.
