Specifications by Statement Account (tffst1521m000)

Use this session to list and link the ranges of ledger accounts and dimensions to the selected statement account. The ranges of ledger accounts and dimensions are given for a range of companies. LN checks the given ledger accounts to see whether a link exists to the dimension structures. If no link is defined between the ledger accounts within the given range, LN displays an error message if you try to enter dimensions.

If the Cash Flow Statement Account check box is selected, you can use this session to list and link ranges of cash flow reasons to the selected statement account.

You can link multiple ranges of ledger accounts and dimensions to a statement account. To prevent a double count, you can only link ledger accounts and dimensions with sublevel zero to statement accounts. In addition, ledger accounts and dimensions can only be linked to statement accounts with sublevel zero.

In addition to entering specific ranges of ledger accounts (and dimensions) or cash flow reasons, you can make a smaller selection by using masks.

To reorganize the sequences of the statement accounts, by selecting a record, you can choose one of three options:

  • Increase Sequence Number
  • Decrease Sequence Number
  • Renumber Sequence Numbers

Sequence Number

You can use the sequence number to link several ranges of ledger accounts or cash flow reasons to a statement account.

A sequence number identifies every range.

To reorganize the sequences of the statement accounts, by selecting a record, you can choose one of three options:

  • Increase Sequence Number
    If you increase a sequence number, the sequence number of the selected record is increased by 1.
  • Decrease Sequence Number
    If you decrease a sequence number, the sequence number of the selected record is decreased by 1.
  • Renumber Sequence Numbers
    If you renumber, the space between the selected record and all following lines is set to 1.

Ranges
From Company

In an LN multicompany environment, you can link ledger accounts (and dimensions) or cash flow reasons from various financial companies to one statement account.

If you are not working in an LN multicompany environment, you can also enter a range of companies. However, LN will only select data from the current financial company.

Financial Company Mask

After you enter specific ranges of financial companies, you can make a smaller selection of the financial companies by using masks.

Using masks

Use masks to determine which numbers must be selected. The masks are created by using the following characters:

$The number to be selected must end with the character preceding the $
^The selection must start with the first character
*The preceding character must occur one or more times
[5-9]The character to be selected must be between 5 and 9
[579]The value of the character to be selected must be 5, 7 or 9
...The dots indicate the number of characters

 

Example

The following company numbers are defined:

  • 011
  • 027
  • 031
  • 042
  • 135
  • 168
  • 281
  • 292
  • 315

To select company numbers 031 and 281, you must write: ^ [3-8]1$

To select company numbers 135 and 315, you must write: ^ [13]*5$

From Ledger Account / Cash Flow Reason

To link a sequential range of ledger accounts or cash flow reasons, you can use this field. To link ledger accounts that are not in the sequential range, you must create a new sequence number to link the ledger accounts or cash flow reasons to the statement account.

Ledger Account / Cash Flow Reason Mask

After you enter specific ranges of ledger accounts or cash flow reasons, you can make a smaller selection by using masks.

Using masks

Use masks to determine which codes must be selected. The masks are created by using the following characters:

$The number to be selected must end with the character preceding the $
^The selection must start with the first character
*The preceding character must occur one or more times
[5-9]The character to be selected must be between 5 and 9
[579]The value of the character to be selected must be 5, 7 or 9
...The dots indicate the number of characters

 

Example

The following ledger accounts are defined:

  • 899011
  • 899027
  • 899031
  • 899042
  • 899135
  • 899168
  • 899281
  • 899292
  • 899315

To select ledger accounts 899031 and 899281, you must write: ^...[3-8]1$

To select ledger accounts 899135 and 899315, you must write: ^...[13]*5$

Dimension

To link a sequential range of dimensions, you can use this field. To link dimensions that are not in the sequential range, you must create a new sequence number to link the dimensions to the statement account.

Note

Even if you only want to enter a range of ledger accounts, always enter the total dimensions range too. Otherwise, LN tries to check values at the dimension level but will not find any values. As a result, no values are found for the statement account.

Dimension Mask

After you enter specific ranges of dimensions, you can make a smaller selection of the dimensions by using masks.

Using masks

Use masks to determine which codes must be selected. The masks are created by using the following characters:

$The number to be selected must end with the character preceding the $
^The selection must start with the first character
*The preceding character must occur one or more times
[5-9]The character to be selected must be between 5 and 9
[579]The value of the character to be selected must be 5, 7 or 9
...The dots indicate the number of characters

 

Example

The following dimensions are defined:

  • 899011
  • 899027
  • 899031
  • 899042
  • 899135
  • 899168
  • 899281
  • 899292
  • 899315

To select dimensions 899031 and 899281, you must write: ^...[3-8]1$

To select dimensions 899135 and 899315, you must write: ^...[13]*5$
