Pre-Allocation Statement of Cash Flows
Access this report using Reports>Allocation Management>Pre-Allocation Statement of Cash Flows. |
Use this report to produce a statement of cash flows. The purpose of a statement of cash flows is to provide relevant information about the cash receipts and cash disbursements during a period and whether they stem from operating, investing, or financing activities. You can print the balance information for posted transactions and any unposted allocations for any account combination desired. Sessions with a status of Batch-to-Suspend are not included in this report. However, it does contain any unposted transactions for allocation sessions (JVA).
To use this report, the Statement of Cash Flows must first be set up using Reports>Financial Statements>Create Statement Formats. This format is where you will design the statement format to follow, either the direct or indirect method of reporting cash flows.

Account Level Security is available for this report. This feature allows the Administrator to define the account codes and related amounts a user can view in the report. When account level security is activated by the Administrator for the organization (Security>Set Up Account Level Segments) and enabled for a user or group (Security>Set Up Account Level Security), the report will only print account information the user is allowed to see. Note that if a user does not have Account Level Security enabled, the user will see all account codes.
If the "Print Disclaimer on Report" check box is selected on the Security>Set Up Account Level Segments form, "This report may be affected by Account Level Security" prints in the header of this report. In that case, an * also prints after the report title.

The Currency, Rate Type, Rate, and Exchange Rate Override options are only available if the Administrator has installed and added the Multicurrency module (Organization>Add a Module).
Use this tab to assign a report name and determine whether or not to include it on the actual report. The report name can be printed in the header or the footer of the report.
