Copying Financial Report Lines

Use the Financial Report Line - Copy/Update form (available only to version 10 customers who had a prior version. New customers beginning with version 10 do not have access to this form) to copy lines from one financial report to another one.

This activity copies all elements of lines, including the line definition, column line definition, and statement totals. Before copying financial report lines, you must first define the financial reports and the columns in the report you will copy them to.

In a multi-site environment, you can select a site in the To Site field and copy a financial statement definition from one site to another. This functionality enables you to create standardized report formats to share with all sites and entities. A definition is copied without regard to the validity of accounts specified. Each site can update the report with valid, meaningful account ranges.

Modifications to existing reports cannot be copied across sites. To send a modified report, you must rename the report and copy it to the other sites.

Before actually copying the report lines, you can select Preview and click Process. The grid at the bottom of the form is then updated with the list of lines that will be copied.
