The byproduct of automating the invoicing, accounts receivable, and accounts payable is an automated general ledger with financial reporting.

The general ledger consists of two files that interact to produce the necessary details of your bookkeeping.

The G/L Account file contains the chart of accounts, that is, for each account, the account number, account type, and description. Stored in each record are the monthly activity for the current year and the prior year, plus monthly budget figures. The Monthly Trial Balance will print from this file showing one line per account, with the account balance as of the beginning of the month, the month's activity, then the ending balance. The formatted financial statements also print from this file.

The G/L Detail file contains records of account activity. A record is added to this file whenever an account appears in the G/L Summary portion of one of your daily Journals. The Detail Trial Balance will print from this file producing an audit trail that helps you trace from a single source back to the actual detail of a transaction, recorded on the daily Journal.

Much of the daily posting to accounts occurs automatically. This is due to an internal structure that is for the most part invisible to the operators. You have seen references to G/L Cross-Reference codes in many sections of this manual. The system uses these codes, which are built into the programs, to post to certain accounts. You have attached these codes to your actual account numbers when you added the accounts to the G/L Account file. This is the method of crossing over between programs and your actual data.

For example, when an invoice is generated, the system will post a debit to Accounts Receivable, whose cross-reference code is "A/R", and a credit to Sales, cross-reference code "SALE". This is an oversimplified example, but the point is that certain assumptions have been made as to how each Journal should post to the general ledger. All you have to do is correctly set up the Chart of Accounts with the cross-reference codes.

You may establish G/L account numbers as long as ten characters. They can contain numbers, letters, and other characters, like dashes, if desired. The actual numbers may be determined in any manner, but grouping by account type is suggested (assets begin with 1, liabilities 2, etc.) But there are a few specific rules for establishing your account numbers.

There are three levels of accounts; control, true, and department.

Control accounts are non-posting account that are established solely to accumulate totals of subordinate (true) accounts. You may have three bank accounts plus a petty cash account, for example. You should have one control account that always retains the running total of the four cash in bank accounts.

True accounts are the actual accounts that you will post to. Accounts Receivable, Sales, Auto Gas & Oil, for example.

You may choose to set up division accounts (department, or profit center). To do this, you split up your revenue and expense true accounts into several accounts, one for each department. For example, you might have a true account 5201 Automobile Gas & Oil. But, to track expenses by four departments, you create 52011, 52012, 52013 and 52014. Notice how the department number is attached as an extension of the true account number. When you do this, the true account becomes a non-posting account.

Each account level will have several account numbers. But each of these numbers MUST be the same length. So you might have control level accounts with 2 digits, true level accounts with 4 digits, and department level accounts with 5 digits.

Refer to chapter 2, Master Files, G/L Account Maintenance, for a greater explanation of setting up your chart of accounts.

You post to the General Ledger each day when you print and update these journals: Sales, Cash Receipts, Purchases, Cash Disbursements, possibly P.O. Receipts, Inventory Adjustments, and Payroll. At the end of the month, the Finance Charge Journal and General Journal may post to the General Ledger. Each journal includes a G/L Summary page on which appears those accounts with activity on that journal during the current month. The current day's activity and month-to-date totals are shown. Each journal update adds one record to the General Ledger Detail file for each account on the G/L Summary with activity.

The General Journal Posting program is a simple data entry program to handle adjusting journal entries to any account, for the current period or any of the eleven prior periods. Each journal posting must, of course, be double entry and must balance.

Month end reports include the Monthly Trial Balance, and the G/L Detail Trial Balance. The Monthly Trial Balance is a worksheet showing one line per account with beginning balance, current period activity, and ending balance. The Detail Trial Balance lists those accounts with current period activity, and it shows one line for each posting, with the date, source (which journal), and amount of the posting. The Detail Trial Balance prints in account number sequence, or alternatively, can group records by source journal, then account number.

The G/L Insight program can be used to display accounts on the video screen. Input the account number to see the activity for each period (month), year-to-date and the prior year, and the monthly budgets and variance from budget. Then, a secondary screen will show the detail G/L transaction records, similar to the Detail Trial Balance, for any of the last 12 months.

If you've been accounting by division, or department, two reports will analyze departmental expenses. One lists a department, then all expenses charged to the department. The other report lists an expense account, then shows each department and the amount charged to the department.

The financial reporting system consists of a set of instructions which allow flexible formatting of financial reports. This means that you can create a variety of reports using your own account numbers and print formats. Once the reports are set up, you can print them at any time, in a matter of minutes.

To create a report, you must design, or lay out the desired format and determine the applicable accounts. Use the G/L Report Format Maintenance program to enter the instructions. Balance sheet reports may require 30 to 50 lines of instruction, income statements, perhaps 100 lines. Each report can have up to eight columns along with a 30 character account description or other text. Each column represents a field of information stored in the General Ledger file.

Make direct entries into the General Ledger using the General Journal Posting. This program is most commonly used for posting adjustments as requested by your accountant, to post payroll or any other transactions that are not an integrated part of the computer system, post corrections to the inventory account, and to initially load the balances from your manual or prior computer system.

Begin by entering a reference number, reference date, and posting period. Then enter an account number, amount, and debit or credit code. Enter as many accounts as you desire. As each is entered, a proof total is computed and displayed. This proof must be zero before the posting can be accepted.

At any point you can change or delete a posted line, or simply review your postings. This makes it easy to get your work in balance.

Enter a reference number, reference date, and posting period so that you can easily recall the details of this posting at a future date.

Reference number

Enter as many as six characters.

Reference date

Enter a valid date using an MMDDYY (month,day,year) format.

Period

Enter the fiscal period 1 through 12 for which the postings will occur. You may enter the current accounting period or one of the prior eleven periods. Or, you may enter period "14", which is the period number used for "closing" entries.

Period 14 should be used only to close revenue and expense accounts AFTER the fiscal year ends.

Is the above correct? (Y)or(N)

You have an opportunity to correct the above fields. Reply "Y" if the information is correct and you want to proceed. Reply "N" to erase the above and return to the "Reference Number" prompt.

To add a journal posting line, when the following prompt appears:

(A)dd, (C)hange, (D)elete, or (R)eview lines, or (END)

Enter "A" to add a new line. The cursor moves to the account number prompt.

Account number

Enter any valid account number that may be posted to. Control level and some true level accounts may not be posted to. The "allow posting" field is set up using the G/L Account Maintenance program. The account description displays for visual verification.

Amount

Enter an amount using a 99999999.99 numeric format. Precede the number with a minus (-) if desired.

DR/CR code

Immediately following the amount, indicate whether the amount is a debit or a credit to the account. Press (RETURN) for the default value that appears. It is based on the type of account you have just entered. Asset and expense accounts are debit (DR) accounts. Liability, equity, and revenue accounts are credit (CR) accounts.

Comment

You may type as many as 20 characters. This will show on the General Journal printout.

Proof

The system accepts the line and uses the amount and debit/credit code to compute a proof amount. Debits add and credits subtract from the proof.

Until the proof is zero, the system continues to cycle to the "Add, Change, Delete..." prompt for your entry of another account. When the proof is zero, the posting is considered complete. Then you are at a position to enter another reference number.

You may change the AMOUNT, DR/CR CODE, and COMMENT for any line you have previously entered. You cannot change the account number. If the account number is wrong, use the delete option to delete the line, then add the line correctly.

To change a line, you must indicate the LINE NUMBER to be changed. This line must be visible on the screen when you select the change option. Therefore, you may have to (R)eview lines in order to get the desired line to appear on the screen.

To change a posting line that you have entered:

(A)dd, (C)hange, (D)elete, or (R)eview lines, or (END)

Enter "C" to change a line.

Select a LINE NUMBER to change, or (END)

Each line you have posted has a line number. You must enter the line number you want to change.

Now you may change your previous entries for Amount, DR/CR code, and comment. The program returns to the "Add, Change, Delete..." prompt and you are in a position to continue with the posting.

The procedure to delete a line is similar to the Change option. You must enter the LINE NUMBER to be deleted.

(A)dd, (C)hange, (D)elete, or (R)eview lines, or (END)

Enter "D" to delete a line.

Select LINE NUMBER to delete, or (END)

From the lines displayed on the screen, enter the line number of the posting line you want to delete.

The line is removed from the screen display and the amount is deducted from the PROOF. The program returns to the "Add, Change, Delete..." prompt and you may proceed with the posting.

Some of your journal postings may be lengthy ones including more accounts than can be displayed on the screen at one time. As you add lines, the previously entered lines will scroll off the screen.

The review option lets you bring portions of a lengthy posting to the screen to be viewed. You can review your work or bring lines you desire to change or delete onto the screen.

(A)dd, (C)hange, (D)elete, or (R)eview lines, or (END)

Enter "R" to review lines.

Enter the starting PAGE NUMBER or (END)

The program will display one "page" of posting lines at any time. To let you quickly get to the appropriate page, you may enter a starting page number to be displayed.

Each page of lines may be viewed. Press (RETURN) to view the next page until all pages have been displayed. The program returns to the "Add, Change, Delete..." prompt and you may proceed with your posting.

When you have completed entering accounts and amounts and you want to end the posting:

(A)dd, (C)hange, (D)elete, or (R)eview lines, or (END)

Press (END) to end the posting.

If the proof amount is zero, the posting is completed. Records are written to the General Journal file and included on the next printing of the General Journal and Update.

If the proof amount is NOT zero, you may not end the posting. This message appears:

This posting may not be completed until the PROOF is zero!

At this point, review the posting to determine where your error occurred. Continue to add, change, or delete lines until the proof is zero and your posting can be completed.

General Journal postings are not considered "official" and will not affect the G/L master file until the General Journal Print and Update program has been completed.

Print the journal as an audit trail of your entries using the General Journal Posting program. Save it for future use to track errors.

The journal lists the detail of each posting, then lists a G/L Summary.

After the journal is printed, you may update the entries. The new general journal postings are not "official" until this update is completed.

There are no report options for this program. Press (RETURN) to start the report.

Notice that the first part is an audit trail detailing the entries you have made since the last update. The second part summarizes the General Ledger entries to be made by the update.

You should keep this report for future reference.

After the journal printing has concluded the system displays this message:

Do you want to update the General Journal? (Y)or(N)

Check the journal BEFORE you respond to this question. Make sure all printing is legible and that the journal is complete and in balance.

Type "Y" to proceed with the update. Type "N" to return to the Selector without updating.

The update program scans the journal file and updates the General Ledger master and transaction files. When completed, the General Journal file is cleared for the next batch of postings. The information is retained for the Monthly General Journal, however.

This program lets you create your own financial report formats. Please refer to a separate booklet "Formatting Financial Statements" for instructions.

As you create your own financial report formats, you need to see these format instructions on paper. This master list program will print your formats.

You should always keep within quick reach a current copy of your formats in printed form. You need to refer to them to answer vital questions about what accounts are included in which section of the report. When you add new accounts to your chart of accounts, you must add them to the appropriate financial reports also. Refer to the printed formats to determine where, and how to add the accounts.

You can print the Format Master List at any time, and as often as desired. You can select a range of report numbers to print.

RANGE: First report to print

You can select to print a range of financial report formats. Report numbers are three character, alpha-numeric codes, like "PL1", or "B/S". Report formats will print in alphabetic sequence by the report number.

Enter the first report format number to be printed, or leave the field blank to begin with the first report format in the G/L Format file.

RANGE: Last report to print

Indicate the last report format number to be printed, or leave the field blank to print through the last report format in the G/L Format file.

Review the report options and if all selections are correct, press (RETURN) to start the report.

A common procedure at the end of a fiscal year is posting the closing entries to the revenue and expense accounts. This "closes" each account, making the balance forwarded to the new year equal to zero.

The opposing entry as each account is closed is made to an "income summary" or "profit & loss" account, and thus, when all accounts are closed, the income summary account contains the year-ending profit (or loss).

DR revenue or expense account
CR Income Summary account "INCSUMM"

This program performs this function automatically. You do not have to use the General Journal Posting program to close each account. The program will scan the G/L Accounts file, detecting only revenue and expense accounts with non-zero year-ending balances. It will add a posting to the General Journal to reduce the balance to zero, with the offsetting posting to an income summary account. You must run the General Journal Print & Update program to complete the closing task.

Be certain you have an income summary account in your chart of accounts. It is an equity account, and it must have the G/L cross-reference code equal to "INCSUMM".

You may run this program more than once after the year end. Each time, it will look at the prior year-end balance of revenue and expense accounts and make its postings. Thus, if adjusting entries have been made since you ran the program after year end, you can run it again before printing your final financial reports.

Let's look at an example of the postings that this program will make.

You have these accounts and account balances at year end:

1200 Accounts Receivable - trade 338,030.21

3100 Profit (or loss) .00

4010 Sales - California taxable 34,030.80

4020 Sales - California resale 2,838,391.04

4030 Sales - Out of state 18,922.60

5010 Cost of goods sold 1,733,803.80

5050 Freight out 118,625.50

5120 Salary and wages 164,116.24

These postings will result:

DR 4010 Sales - California taxable 34,030.80

DR 4020 Sales - California resale 2,838,391.04

DR 4030 Sales - Out of state 18,922.60

CR 5010 Cost of goods sold 1,733,803.80

CR 5050 Freight out 118,625.50

CR 5120 Salaries and wages 164,116.24

CR 3100 Profit (or loss) 874,798.90

No posting is made for the asset account Accounts Receivable.

The postings are made to period 14, a special area that does not appear when you display account history. Period 14 is used rather than period 12 to retain the significance of that period.

Be sure to run the General Journal Print & Update immediately following this program. None of the postings of this program will become "official" until the update is completed.

Type "CONTINUE" to proceed with update, otherwise
(END) to return to the selector.

Type "CONTINUE" or (END)

To proceed, type "CONTINUE", then press (RETURN).

To end the function without closing accounts, press (END).

The program scans the G/L Account file. When it encounters a revenue or expense account, it will add records to the General Journal file. The scan will take a few minutes. At the beginning, it will rapidly skip through the asset, liability, and equity accounts.

The Monthly Trial Balance is a worksheet showing one line per account. Each line has the account balance at the beginning of the month, the current month's activity, then the ending balance.

The Trial Balance should be printed each month. It is designed to be printed AFTER the month is closed, thus allowing for adjusting entries and posting of vendor invoices to the prior period.

You may print the report at any time, as often as desired.

SPECIFY fiscal period

You have the opportunity to print the Trial Balance for the current fiscal period (month), or any of the prior eleven periods. The main purpose for allowing different fiscal periods is to allow you to print a Trial Balance as of the end of any period, but several days or weeks after closing the month, allowing for any adjustments to be made.

For example, if you are currently several days into period 2, you can select "2" to print as of the end of the current month. Or you can enter period 1 to print as of the end of period 1 in the current fiscal year. Or, you can enter period 12 to print as of the end of the prior fiscal year.

Review the report options and if all selections are correct, press (RETURN) to start the report.

The is a report to be printed monthly that helps you audit your bookkeeping. Each general ledger account with activity during the month will have at least one detail line. The detail lines are created by one of the many daily journals and journal updates. Each line shows the source journal code, the posting date, and the debit or credit amount.

You should be able to quickly analyze any account and refer to the daily journals for the detail of any transaction.

INCLUDE Variance amt (Y)or(N)

You may choose to include a line for each account that shows the variance amount between the current year's period activity and either the prior year's activity or the current year's budget as selected above.

The variance amount is computed:

VARIANCE AMOUNT = CURRENT YEAR - PRIOR YEAR (OR BUDGET)

INCLUDE Variance pct (Y)or(N)

Similarly, you may choose to include a line for each account that shows the variance percent between the current year's period activity and either the prior year's activity or the current year's budget.

The variance percent is computed:

VARIANCE PCT = CURRENT YEAR / PRIOR YEAR (BUDGET) * 100

The Y-T-D Detail Trial Balance is a report that helps you audit your bookkeeping. It corresponds to the Monthly Detail Trial Balance in that it prints a line for each journal posting to an account. The detail lines are created by one of the many daily journals and journal updates. Each line shows the source journal code, the posting date, and the debit or credit amount.

The YTD report, however, prints the detail postings for the entire year to date. It subtotals the activity of each accounting period.

You should be able to quickly analyze any account and refer to the daily journals for the detail of any transaction.

This report may be printed at any time. For an entire fiscal year analysis, run this report as part of your year end closing, that is, just prior to the Month End Update for the 12th accounting period.

This can be a lengthy report. You may want to limit the size by selecting a range of accounts to print.

SPECIFY fiscal period

You have the opportunity to print the YTD Detail Trial Balance through the current fiscal period (month), or any of the prior eleven periods. This allows you to print this report as of the end of any period.
