Carry forward schedules
A carry forward is a transfer of values from one period to another. Different to the Copy function, the Carry Forward Schedules function ensures that the closing balance of the base period is transferred to and matches the opening balance in the target period.
Usually, period 12 of the last year is selected as the base period. Any period of the current year can be selected as the target.
The Carry Forward Schedules function enables you to transfer closing balances of all data entry levels to the opening balance in the next period.
This function affects the TDETAIC and TSEGMOVC cubes. Data entry levels are those which are adjusted by import loads or manual data entries and not by the posting of journals.
