Create Estimates (FR130)

Run Create Estimates (FR130) to create estimated sales records and to print a report of all estimates created for the cycle date specified on the form.

Processing Effect

Estimated sales are created based upon the last call-in estimates or actual sales amounts. If user analysis values exist in the sales entry from which an estimate is created, those values are copied to the estimate.

Running this program before you run FR200 (Open and Call In Estimates Report) ensures that all active contracts are covered in FR200.

More Information

Before you run this report, use FR10.1 (Customer Contract) to create active customer contracts.

You run this program at the frequency you define in the current fiscal year calendar in FR00.1 (Calendar).

After you run this program, you can view the created estimates using FR20.1 (Sales Entry). Estimates are used to create accruals in the accrual closing, when you run FR199 (Period Closing).
