TYPE
The valid types are:
H - HEADING LINE Special text line that should be used at the top of the
first page. When a P
type line is printed, the last H type lines used are printed again. Also, if H type
lines come after other type lines, a form feed is executed before they are printed
except when the previous line is a P type line.
C - COLUMN HEADING LINE Special text line that operates like the H type line.
This allows you to change H
type lines without affecting C type lines at Page time.
P - PAGE LINE Prints the text associated with it, executes a form
feed, and prints the most
current heading and column lines. If H type lines directly follow the P type
line, they are printed instead of the previous heading lines.
TX - TEXT LINE Will be printed "as is" where placed. Useful
for putting in commends and
underlines.
A - ACCOUNT LINE A valid Chart of Accounts ID will be prompted for to
supply data for the columns.
AS - ACCOUNT LINE Account line with output suppressed.
NI - NET INCOME LINE Used in balance sheet statements to be added into
retained earnings. It will be
printed out like an account line. When this is used, the system will calculate the
net income for the entity and departments specified.
NIS - NET INCOME LINE Net income line with output suppressed.
S - SUBTOTAL LINE This will accumulate all A type and NI type lines since
the last S type line and
will print the data in the columns. If a column formula has been specified, the
column formula will take precedence. A name for each columns subtotal amount
will be prompted for.
SS - SUBTOTAL LINE Subtotal line with output suppressed.
T - TOTAL LINE Allows the entry of a formula computed on the subtotal
lines. The result of this
formula will be printed. A name for each columns total will be prompted for.
TS - TOTAL LINE Total line with output suppressed.
TEXT OR
ACCOUNT NUMBER
For A type lines, enter the Chart of Accounts ID. If you
wish to use a description
other than the one in the Chart of Accounts file, type it in after the ID using a ; to
separate. This text will only be used in a GLDESC output column. ie:
01.01.1000;BANK AMOUNT
For NI type lines, the text will be used in the GLDESC
output column like the
A type lines.
All other line types will appear as entered. The text will
be printed from left to
right starting at the first print position.
On P type lines, the text will be printed before the output
is paged.
In all text lines, some special codes are allowed. They
must be separated from each
other and the normal text by semi-colons (;). The codes insert data into the text. The
codes are:
| T |
Time, the current system time as
HH:MMPM. |
| D |
Date, the current system date as
/web/YY. |
| ID |
Input Date, from input when
statement is run. |
| P |
Page number. |
| SPn |
Number of pages,
i.e.: SP5 |
| Cn |
Center the line on "n"
print positions, i.e.: C80 |
T;SP25;THIS IS A HEADING;SP25;D;C132
REV
These Sub-Value line numbers correspond to the column
numbers. Enter Y
if you wish to multiply the amount by -1 to reverse the sign at display time.
FORMAT
Enter up to three characters. You may use the $ to
print the dollar sign in front
of the numbers output. Also, a comma (,) may be used to print the comma to
separate 1000s in numbers. Only one of the following alphabetic characters
may be used:
| C |
causes CR to follow negative
values |
| D |
causes DR to follow positive values
|
| E |
causes negative balances to be
enclosed in arrows, i.e."<1234.56> |
| M |
causes a hyphen (-) to follow
negative values |
| N |
causes the hyphen to be suppressed |
| S |
causes all output in this column to
be suppressed. |
FORMULA
For NI type lines, enter only on the first Sub-Value
line the entities to calculate net
income, separated by semi-colons (;). Use parentheses to surround the departments
desired. The same entities and departments will be used in all the columns.
i.e.:
01(01);02(01,02,03);03(04,05)
Subtotal lines must be named. These lines will total all
account lines and NI lines
since the last subtotal line.
Total lines must be named. On total lines, a formula may be specified after the name
with an = separating them. i.e.:
TOT1=ST1+ST2+ST3
