Accounting Reporting

The Accounting Reporting pre-filter provides access to various reporting options. Information on general ledger postings for various transactions within the system can be found via Deacom Basics > Sample Accounting Postings. It is critical that the GL and the sub-ledgers are in balance. 

System Navigation

  • Main Application > Accounting Fields & Forms Guides > Accounting Reporting

Additionally, users have the option of running GL reports in a foreign currency. If running the GL Detail, GL Summary, or Trial Balance reports, the system will use the exchange rate on the posting date(s) of the various transactions in the report when converting home currency postings to the requested foreign currency. 

Voiding transactions may only be completed by generating a "Cash Disbursements Summary" or "Cash Receipts by Payment" report since voiding will be done for the entire payment and not on a portion used to pay for one order. While the "Void Transaction" button may be visible on other reports, it will be grayed out and therefore unavailable for use.

There are also multiple security options to employ regarding accounting. In addition to the base User-level security permissions, Deacom offers several features to control access to certain account activity and financial reports.

  • Chart Group Security - Every account in Deacom must be assigned to a Chart of Account Group, which allow for consolidated reporting of multiple primary accounts within a company. The Chart Group Security feature available via System > Maintenance > Chart Group Security can be used to limit access to specific Chart of Account Groups.
  • Financial Statement Group Security - Every Financial Statement in Deacom must be assigned to a Financial Statement Group. Financial Statement Groups and Financial Statement Group Security work together to define which Users Groups can run Financial Statements. Financial Group Security is maintained at System > Maintenance > Financial Statement Group Security. Here, Financial Statement Groups are assigned to User Security Groups.
  • User Facility Restrictions - User Restrictions may be used to limit a user's ability to view Purchasing, Sales, and Production activity in Facilities other than their own.
  • Companies can determine which reports will be displayed, for which Users and User Groups, in the "Report Type" field on the Accounting Reporting pre-filter.

Accounting Reporting pre-filter

Field

Description

Report Type

Pick list used to choose the desired kind of report that will generate.

Notes: 

  • Several of the reports in the list below are sub-ledger reports and contain the words "sub-ledger" at the beginning of the description. Information on balancing sub-ledger reports, including sub-ledger reports available in other parts of the system, to the main ledger are indicated further down on this page.
  • Deacom contains the ability to add unlimited user versions of any accounting report for users with permission and also the security that determines which reports each user will see in this field.

Pick list options are:

  • A/P Ledger - Sub-ledger report containing Accounts Payable information by Vendor including starting balance, payments applied, and payments voided. The starting balance of the AP Ledger report will match the balance on the Purchase Order Summary report for orders received prior to the starting date specified on the pre-filter. Any field from the Cash Transactions(dtcash),Vendor Master(dmvend), and Purchase Order Header(dttput) tables can be added to the grid layout for this report.
  • A/P Reconciliation - Used to track when the AP sub-ledger went out of balance. Compares values from the Trial Balance report to the total value of on hand inventory. The security setting "Accounting - View AP Reconciliation" controls the ability to see this report in the pre-filter and use the report.
  • A/R Ledger - Sub-ledger report containing Accounts Receivable information by Customer including starting balance, payments received, and payments voided. The starting balance of the AR Ledger report will match the balance on the Sales Order Summary report for orders invoiced prior to the starting date specified on the pre-filter.
  • A/R Reconciliation - Used to track when the AR sub-ledger went out of balance. It gives the GL and AR sub-ledger values for the accounts in the account range, for each date in the date range. The security setting "Accounting - View AR Reconciliation" controls the ability to see this report in the pre-filter and use the report.
  • Anticipated Cash Receipts - Accounts Receivable information based on financial period. The report will display the number of total orders and dollars for each period as well as a running total based on how may financial periods are used/run for the report. Additional information is available via drill down capability.
  • Bank Account - Displays the bank account information for the selected account. A year-end entry is required to input the beginning bank balance. If the beginning balance shows as $0.00, ensure the Completing a Year End Close process has been completed.
  • Bank Reconciliation - Displays only uncleared transactions and is useful as a way of comparing what Deacom says the account balance is with what the bank statement says. The System Balance displayed on the first line will match the Balance shown in the Trial Balance. If there is a value in the Balance column on the last row, that is the difference between the Bank Statement Balance and the Deacom System Balance + any un-cleared transactions. This would indicate a discrepancy between what is in Deacom vs what is included in the Bank Statement that would need to be reviewed.
    • Example - While paying a Vendor which does decrease the bank account, if that check has not cleared the bank yet, its' total needs to be added to the Deacom balance to come up with what the actual bank account balance is. For example, assume there is currently $200 in the bank. Today a check for $50 was sent to the electric company. Logically, the balance is $150 but the bank still thinks there is $200 since they don’t know about the check yet. Once the check clears, and is marked as cleared in Deacom, the System balance and Statement balance will both show $150.
  • Cash Disbursements Detail - Sub-ledger report which displays all the cash payables information, by Purchase Order, for the selected criteria. This report shows the check(s) that were used to pay for the orders displayed on the report and is helpful when multiple orders are paid with a single check. Additional Vendor information and payment type information can be added to the grid layout for this report. Separate security exists to control access to this report. Note that the "Void Transaction" button is grayed out on this report. Voiding may only be done via the Cash Disbursements Summary report since voiding will be done for the entire payment and not on a portion used to pay for one order. User Defined Fields can now be added to Payment Types on this report.
  • Cash Disbursements Summary - Sub-ledger report which displays all the cash payables information for the selected criteria. Also allows users to void Purchase Order payments and add a note on why the transaction was voided. Zero dollar Purchase Orders that are marked as paid when the Vendor invoice is processed will display on the Cash Disbursements report for all accounts. Vendor address and other relevant information may be added to this report as well as the Cash Disbursements Detail report. The report displays vendor information as of the time payment was made, so that changes made to a vendor name or address after payment was made will not be changed for payments made in the past, thus allowing accurate disbursement information to be maintained for reporting purposes.
  • Cash Flow - Displays estimated cash flow (cash receipts/cash expenditures) based on booked and open orders.
    • The cash flow report logic was updated to check if the lines on un-received purchase orders have different due to dock dates than the header due to dock date, and if so use the line extension for the line as the payable amount grouped in the week of the line due to dock date and will not use the PO header amount.
  • Cash Receipts by Order - Sub-ledger report which displays all the cash receivable information, by Sales Order, for the selected criteria. This report shows the check(s) that were used to pay for the orders displayed on the report and is helpful when multiple orders are paid with a single check. Additional Customer information and payment type information can be added to the grid layout for this report. Separate security exists to control access to this report. Note that the "Void Transaction" button is grayed out on this report. Voiding may only be done via the Cash Receipts by Payment report since voiding will be done for the entire payment and not on a portion used to pay for one order. User Defined Fields can now be added to Payment Types on this report.
  • Cash Receipts by Payment - Sub-ledger report which displays all the cash receivable information for the selected criteria. Also allows users to void Cash Receipts. The "Print" button will generate a deposit slip. The GL Account number and GL Description are available for this report as well as the Deposit Ticket report.  Customer address and other relevant information may be added to this report as well as the Cash Receipts by Order report. The report displays customer information as of the time payment was received, so that changes made to a customer name or address after payment was received will not be changed for payments received in the past, thus allowing accurate receipt information to be maintained for reporting purposes.
  • Collections - Report which displays Sales Orders that are past due for collections. Only records with a Pay Schedule that have a collection date and are past due will be displayed on this report.
  • Credit Details - Displays the information from the Credit tab for the selected Bill-To Companies.
    • All fields in the dmbill (Bill-To Companies) table are available to the grid in this report.
  • General Ledger Detail - Displays every transaction that has ever hit the accounts, according to the selected criteria. The GL Detail report includes closing entries and all other Debits and Credits and will tie out to the Trial Balance report, as long as both are run with a start date of the first of the Fiscal Year.
    • The transactions included in this report are also how the amounts listed under the GL Summary report’s Starting Balance, Debits, and Credits are calculated, as long as the selected date range is the same.
    • This report contains a button, which acts as a toggle switch, to “Approve” or “Un-approve” transactions. This button, which is only available to this report, is more for auditing purposes since the postings have already hit the GL. Companies can control users’ ability to use this button with the security settings "Accounting -- approve transactions" and "Accounting -- unapprove transactions". The button will always be displayed, but if users do not have proper security, it will be disabled.
    • If desired, the following items are available to the grid layout of this report:
      • The identification number, (gl_usid), login name (us_login), first name (us_fname), and last name (us_lname) of the user who entered the transaction.
      • The first and last name (apprfname and apprlname, respectively) of the user who approved the transaction.
      • Purchase Order and Sales Order header fields (from the dttpur and dttord tables, respectively). While they will not be shown using the "View All Fields" button, they will be available when adding/modifying fields to the report grid.
    • The beginning and ending account balances fields may be added to the grid layout on this report. These fields are the same as the "starting" and "ending" fields on the General Ledger Summary grid layout.
  • General Ledger History - GL entries according to the selected criteria along with the beginning and ending balances. The beginning and ending account balances fields may be added to the grid layout on this report. These fields are the same as the "starting" and "ending" fields on the General Ledger Summary grid layout.
  • General Ledger Summary - Displays the Starting Balance, Debits, Credits, and Ending Balance of each account, according to the selected criteria. The Starting Balance column houses the closing entry transactions from the first day of the fiscal year. The Debit and Credit columns have everything that happened in the selected date range but those transactions included in the Starting Balance. The Ending Balance column is equal to (Starting Balance + Debits – Credits) and is the amount displayed on a Trial Balance report if run for the same date range.
    • The transactions that make up the amounts listed for the Starting Balance, Debits, and Credits are available via a GL Detail report for the account.
    • Double click a line to open the GL Detail report for that account.
    • In this report, all unrealized gain/loss accounts (setup via Accounting > Maintenance > Chart of Accounts) will be shown only with their associated account. The report will return no results if the GL Summary is run only with gain/loss accounts included. Note: Beginning in version 17.02.013, the system logic was enhanced. When posting to an unrealized gain account the system will first try to use the one specified on the cash account(ch_currgain), if empty the system will look to the gain/loss account on the Currency (fc_currgain), if also empty it will use gain/loss account from system options(df_currgain).
    • This report should be utilized (as opposed to the Trial Balance report) when the user is interested in running a report from the beginning of time.
    • Users should not run this report with the first of a fiscal year somewhere in the middle of the selected date range – like the Trial Balance report, having the first day of a fiscal year in the middle of the selected date range is an invalid report request, as the closing balances happening in the middle of the range will exaggerate the results.
    • The default setup of the GL Summary report shows some credit accounts as if they have a debit balance (natural balance). If users prefer, they can modify the grid to make the report show the beginning and ending balances as the actual debit or credit balance (as opposed to the natural balance) by following these steps:
      • From within a General Ledger Summary report output, click the “Modify Layout” button.
      • Select the row for the “Starting” field and click “Modify”. Change the “Field” selection from “starting” to “User-defined” and enter the following in the “User expression” field: IIF(ch_type = 'Liabilities' or ch_type = 'Revenues' or ch_type = 'Capital', starting * -1, starting).
      • Click “Save” and “Exit” to commit the changes for the “Starting” field.
      • Select the row for the “Ending” field and click “Modify”. Change the “Field” selection from “ending” to “User-defined” and enter the following in the “User expression” field: IIF(ch_type = 'Liabilities' or ch_type = 'Revenues' or ch_type = 'Capital', starting * -1, starting) + debits – credits.
      • Click “Save” and “Exit” to commit the changes for the “Ending” field.
      • Click “Save” and “Exit” to commit the changes to the grid layout. Refresh or re-run the report to see the changes.
  • Inventory Reconciliation - Tracks changes and imbalances in the Inventory Sub ledger by comparing the value from the Trial Balance report to the total value of on hand inventory. The security setting "Accounting - View Inventory Reconciliation" enables users to see and select the report in the "Report type" field on the pre-filter. If this report is selected, only the "Start Date", "End Date", "Start Account", "End Account", and "Display Currency" fields will be available for selection on the pre-filter. See the "Description of calculated fields" section below for details regarding the variables in this report. The report also contains "Lots," "WIP," and "View Detail" buttons. These buttons provide the following information:
    • The "Lots" button provides sub ledger postings, for day for account, via an Inventory Lots report with the end date of the report line's date and filtered by the inventory account of the account on the report line.
    • The "WIP" button displays a lots report with a View of "WIP" and QC status of "All" based on the date range and account(s) selected on the pre-filter.
    • The "View Detail" button displays the GL detail (all postings for day for account) in the grid.
  • Journal Entries - Displays all the journal entries to the GL according to the selected criteria. The "Record History" button via the More dropdown menu displays information regarding who entered the journal entry.
  • Payables Detail - Sub-ledger report which displays Accounts Payable aging details according to the selected criteria on the pre-filter. This reports contains the "tp_inventered" field which displays the date the invoice was physically entered in the system.

  • Payables Summary - Sub-ledger report which displays the Accounts Payable aging summary information according to the selected criteria on the pre-filter.
  • PO Pre-Payment Summary - Groups Purchase Order prepayments by order number. Voids are cancelled out on the report and only net prepayments per order are displayed.

If a prepayment was voided, it will not show on the report at all since it nets to zero. Users can now specify both start and end accounts for these reports, allowing for more flexibility in filtering results.
    • All dtcash, dttpur, dmvend, and the PO search names/fields are available to the report grid.
    • Added in version 17.04.008.0000

Added to assist companies with distinguishing between receivables that are only 90 days overdue from those that are more than 120 days overdue.  120+ past due invoices may be uncollectable and may need to be categorized separately in summarized reports.
  • Receivables Summary Bill-to - Sub-ledger report which displays the Accounts Receivable aging information according to the selected criteria sorted by Bill-to.
    • The following fields are available to the grid in this report: bi_name, bi_street, bi_street2, bi_city, bi_state, bi_zip, and bi_phone. These fields are helpful in situations where receivables reports are required by credit reporting agencies. Additional information on the calculations in the receivables reports is available in the Description of Calculated Fields section below.
    • This report and the Receivables Summary Ship-to report below are also available via Sales > Customers. This allows credit managers access to the appropriate information without requiring access to all the accounting reports on this page.
    • This report is available in the "Report Type" field on the Sales > Customers per-filter.
    • Two new variables/columns are available to the grid layout for this report: totdue91_120 - sums any receivables that are 91 to 120 days old. totdue121 - sums any receivables greater than 120 days old.

Specifically, the report will sum up all prepayments for an order and display them as of the last date a payment was applied. If a prepayment was voided, it will not show on the report at all since it nets to zero.
    • Report was recaptioned from Pre-Payment Summary to SO Pre-Payment Summary in version 17.04.008

  • Trial Balance - Displays a statement of the net debits and credits for each account according to the selected information. Any disagreement between the debits and credits indicates an error. The amount listed for an account on the Trial Balance report ties to the amount listed in the Ending column of a GL Summary report.
    • Double click a line to open the GL Detail report for that account.
    • The Trial Balance report has no starting or ending balance and should not be run for more than one fiscal year. This is because the first day of a new fiscal year contains closing balances that summarize the entire previous fiscal year.
    • Users should only be running a Trial Balance as Year to Date, starting with the first day of the current fiscal year and ending on the current date. This is due to closing balances being dated the first day of the fiscal year; choosing this day as anything other than the Start date will skew the results. If interested in running a report with a start date other than the first of the fiscal year, the output will be the net change in the accounts over the date range, not the balance in the balance sheet accounts. If interested in running a report from the beginning of time, refer to the GL Summary report.
  • VAT Tax - Displays the VAT Tax information according to the selected criteria. Available beginning in version 16.07.001. Information on the grid includes the VAT Tax , Facility, Orders (Sales and Purchase), Total Gross, Taxable Amount, and VAT Tax Amount. If there are multiple VAT Taxes on the same order, the report will display multiple lines, one for each VAT Tax ID (va_id)/order combination.
    • Total Gross - the sum of all line totals for any sales or purchase order lines that do not have a VAT Tax applied (lines where pu_vaid or or_vaid = 0)
    • Taxable Amount - the sum of all line totals for any sales order lines where the item on the line has the "Sales Taxable" (pr_taxable) flag checked, or any purchase order lines where the item on the line has the "PO Taxable" (pr_taxpo) flag checked.
    • Tax Amount - the line total for the line on the purchase or sales order that has a VAT Tax ID identified (pu_vaid or or_vaid <> 0)

Available when using the Payables Detail, Payables Summary, Receivables Detail, Receivables Summary - Bill-to, and Receivables Summary - Ship-to Report Types. These dates are entered/maintained on the Enter Invoice Received form when entering Vendor invoices via Purchasing > Invoice. The "System Invoiced Date" represents the date the system will post the invoicing transaction to the GL. The Vendor Invoice Date represents the date that was specified on the Enter Invoiced Received form and is based on the date the invoice was received from the Vendor. This date affects the GL aging for this Vendor in connection with the payment due information specified on the terms. Options are:

Description of calculated fields

Deacom reports contain calculated fields that provide users with additional information including sums or totals based on information that may not generally be available to the report themselves. Calculated fields are also responsible for the back-end data computations on displayed accounting fields. The list below contains the most commonly used calculated fields for accounting.

  • A/P Reconciliation
    • GL Value: Ending Balance for the GL account for the row's date & account.
    • AP Value: For all Purchase Orders, if the "AP Suspense" field is empty then the date that will be evaluated is Received Date. If the "AP Suspense" field is not empty, then the date that will be evaluated is System Invoiced Date. AP Value is the sum of tp_totdue for all POs that have a date (as defined above) matching the row's date AND have an AP account that matches the row's account.
    • Delta: GL Value - AP Value.
  • Bank Reconciliation
    • System Balance: Represents the trial balance of the accounts selected on the pre-filter from the beginning of the fiscal year defined in Deacom up until the end date specified on the pre-filter. This balance can be verified by running the Trial Balance report from the beginning of the fiscal year defined in Deacom up until the end date on the Bank Reconciliation report. For example, a user runs the Bank Reconciliation report for account 1000-0 for an end date of 10/01/2014 and the report displays a system balance of a $2000.00 debit. Checking the fiscal year in Deacom via Accounting > Maintenance > Fiscal Years indicates that the fiscal year for 2014 is defined as a standard 12 month period of Jan - Dec. At this point, the user can select the "Trial Balance" report within Accounting > Accounting Reporting, select a start date of 01/01/2014 and an end date of 10/01/2014, run the report, and finally locate the account(s) used in the Bank Reconciliation report to verify the system balance.
