Profit & Loss - Show net profit before and after tax
Profit & Loss reporting MUST include before and after tax totals. The before tax number would also exclude non-deductible expenses such as Tax, IRD penalties, non-Deductible Entertainment. I use a custom section called Tax and Non-Deductilbe Expenses to calculate the after tax total.
This is incredibly important because clients look at the Profit number and think they a doing better than they actually are, especially if the tax expense number has not been generated which 99% of the time they look at this report. Having the space for Tax Expense to appear will make them aware of the need to consider it.

Hi Dave, thanks for bringing this idea to the community. We understand why having net profit after tax displayed directly within Profit and Loss reports could be useful for preparing financial summaries or reviewing overall business performance.
The idea is to add a dedicated net profit after tax calculation line within the Profit and Loss report, allowing users to see the final after-tax position without needing to make manual adjustments or calculations.
We encourage the community to vote on this idea if you’d find this reporting improvement useful.
