Contents of the Print Financial Statements Detail Report Screen

Use the fields and options to configure the Print Financial Statements Detail Report screen.

Identification

Use the fields in this block to create a new parameter ID or to retrieve a previously saved parameter ID. A parameter ID represents a set of screen selection parameters. After you have saved a parameter ID and its related parameters, you can retrieve them using Query.

You can use the retrieved parameters to produce reports and run processes more efficiently and with greater consistency. The saved parameters are also useful and necessary when you want to run the process as part of a batch job. Many users save a unique set of parameters for each different way they run a report or process. When you select a previously saved parameter ID or parameter description, the associated saved screen selection parameters automatically display as selection defaults. The page setup and print options, if there are any, are also included in the saved parameter ID. You can change any of the associated selection defaults as necessary.

Field Description
Parameter ID

Enter, or click to select, a parameter ID of up to 15 alphanumeric characters. Choose characters for your parameter ID that help identify the type of selections you made on the screen, such as PERIOD or QUARTERLY.

When you save your record, all the selections made on the screen are stored with the parameter ID. Later, you can retrieve the parameter using Query.

You can use the parameter to run the process more efficiently because you can select the parameter ID with its previously defined screen selections. After the default selections display on the screen, you can override the defaults.

Description

Enter, or click to select, a parameter description of up to 30 alphanumeric characters.

Selection Ranges

(Select By)

Field Description
(Select By)

Make a selection from the drop-down list. Valid options are:

  • Organization: Select this option to generate the report by organization based on balances stored in the Financial Statement Summary table. Organization is the only valid option when you generate the report for statements of cash flows, and you should only generate the report for statements of cash flows for balance sheet-level organizations.
  • Reference 1: Use this option only if you use Reference 1 in data entry. Costpoint generates the report using balances stored in the Reference Summary table for the reference numbers you select.
  • Reference 2: Use this option only if you use Reference 2 in data entry. Costpoint generates the report using balances stored in the Reference Summary table for the reference numbers you select.
  • Alternate Reporting: Use this option to generate the report for financial statements for alternate reporting structures. You define alternate reporting structures by using Reference 1 as an alternate structure. Accounts and organizations are linked to the reference numbers in the Org Account Reference Structure table. Costpoint uses that table to assign account balances to the correct components of the alternate structure.
  • Reorganization: Use this option to generate the report by reorganization. Reorganization structures are stored in the Reorganization Organization Link table. Costpoint uses balances stored in the Financial Statement Summary table for the organizations that are linked to the selected reorganizations.

You can include a comparison column only if you select Organization or Reorganization.
