    Hi Karenn,

    In the general ledger setup you have this field show amounts. Here you can select if you want to show the debet and credit columns or all amounts.

    You might have to click "show more" in the right corner to make the option visible.

    I think you can do this regardless of the "Show Amounts" setting in the General Ledger Setup option.

    Thanks
