Ending Balances Print (GLR730)

Using Reports

Use the Ending Balances Print program to printout the account ending balances stored in the GL account file.

Processing Notes

The balances can be printed for up to six periods and for a single branch or department.

You have the option to:

• Select the beginning and ending GL account number to print.
  
• Select branch(es) to print.
  
• Select department(s) to print.
  
• Select the ending period and number of prior periods to print.
  

Because of limitations due to paper size, a maximum of six periods’ ending balances can be printed at any one time. The printout is broken down according to the breaks set up through the Trial Balance Total Breaks F/M.

Report information includes the following: GL account number, description, period and the ending balances for each of the periods selected. The total number of account numbers listed is also included.

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 Ending Balances Print and select "Current Period" for the Ending Period field, when that template is selected to run again (either manually or via Job Stream) the ending 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-->Reports & Prints-->Ending Balances Print.
