Financial Reports (GLR810)

Using Reports

Use the Financial Reports program to print GL reports (such as balance sheets or profit and loss statements). They can be printed for any given period based on the financial reports the user has created.

Reports are printed by report groups. You can enter up to 26 report groups, and a report may be printed for each group entered. A default option displays all valid report groups automatically.

Templates that store "current period" (or similar values like "system date") resolve to the "current period at the time the report is run" rather than what the "current period" was at the time the template was created. For example: If you save a template for the Financial Reports and select "Current Period" for the Period field, when that template is selected to run again (either manually or via Job Stream) the period is determined using the current period in the Company Periods & Ending Dates F/M (GLF970) when the report is run not the period when the template was created.

Access this program by choosing General Ledger-->End of Period-->Financial Reports.

Use the following fields to print GL Financial Reports:

1. Period

Enter the period within the last 27 (including the current period) fiscal periods that this report is to be run. Press $image\currpd_shg.gif$ or Enter (CR) to default to current period. Press $image\pastpd.gif$ or F2 to default to last period closed.

2. Report Group

Enter the report group(s) to print. The entry must be a valid report group. Press $image\find_shg.gif$ or F2 to search. After entering one group, press Enter (CR) to end the field, and press $image\backup_shg.gif$ or F3 to back up one group. Press $image\Delete_shg.gif$ or F1 to clear all entries

Note: If any consolidated reports are being printed, all companies on the report must have the same fiscal year.

If no report groups exist, the system displays the Reports and Formats (GLR810) when you search for report groups. Press $image\plus_shg.gif$ to add a report group and complete the following.

3. Report Name

Enter the report name to print. The entry must be a valid report (i.e., must exist in the Report Setup F/M). Press F2 to search. After entering the first report, returning to this field allows the options of F1-end names, F3- back up one name and Enter (CR) defaults to same.

4. Report Format

From the drop list select the report format to be used. The entry must be a valid report format. The report name and format must be the same type.
