Financial views

Financial views help you create dynamic financial statements that you can view in the HD view or generate in report form for deeper analysis of your financial data. Each financial view can be filtered by calendar, by year, and by period and you can include or exclude unmerged entries which are not on hold. Views which explicitly include account numbers can also be filtered by account number.

Planning is vital to a great financial view. AccountingWare suggests that you design the financial view on paper before undertaking the design in ActivReporter. You may be able to use existing rollups to group information for financial reports, or you may need to create new rollups.

The rows in a financial view can report over all accounts in the chart of accounts or over specified segments and/or rollups. The columns in a financial view are defined by choosing a column name, financial view function, and depending on the function selected, by specifying an items expression.

How the financial view is defined determines what information is available for financial reports based on the financial view.

Create a financial view

The process of developing a financial view involves determining the columns you want to show in the view and specifying the functions and arguments that will populate the columns with the data you want to see. It's a good idea to plan your financial views on paper before you start setting them up.

In the Navigation pane, highlight the ActivReporter > Financial Views folder.
Click . The New Financial View window opens.
Enter a unique Name for the financial view.
If you want to report totals only, skip to step 7. Otherwise, in the Segments field, click the right arrow to open the Financial View Segments popup.
Do one of the following:
- If you want to report on all accounts in the chart of accounts, select "Report on Accounts".
- If you want to iterate over specific segments/rollups:
  1. Select "Specify Segments".
  2. In the Available Segments list box, highlight the segment(s)/rollup(s) to include, then click to move your selection(s) to the Assigned Segments list box. You can use Ctrl and/or Shift selection to select multiple segments.
  3. If you selected multiple segments/rollups, use and to arrange them in the desired order.
Click OK.
In the Attributes field, select the attribute(s) to report on.

Note

If you report on a combination of segments/rollups and/or attributes, the combinations of segments/rollups and/or attributes found in the journal detail will define the rows in the financial view.

In the first row of the Columns table in the Name field, type a label for the first column of the financial view.
From the Function drop-down list, select the function that returns the type of data you want to retrieve for the column.
Click the right arrow on the Arguments column to open the Financial View Column Arguments popup. The information prompted for depends on your selection in the Function column.
Respond to the prompt(s) as appropriate. Prompts may include one or more of the following fields:
- Period Expression. Enter a period expression to describe the reporting period.
- Items Expression. Enter a conditional expression to describe the accounts to include. The conditions you can apply depend on the function you selected for the current row. In general terms, conditional expressions allow you to limit information by any available attribute that makes sense in the context of the selected function.
  When writing conditional expressions it is important to avoid ambiguity in identifying the item you want ActivReporter to evaluate. When ambiguity is possible, you should fully qualify the item name.
  Example
  To distinguish the GL account entity from a GL segment named "Account", use "GL.Account" for the entity and "GL.Segment.Account" for the segment.
  Note
  For conditional expressions which reference attributes, the syntax "is NULL" is allowed. Using "is NULL" allows you to find results for which no value was specified for a particular attribute.
  Click the right arrow to open the Account Conditions popup where you can build the expression by selecting items and specifying constraints.
- Segment. From the drop-down list, select the segment for which to include information.
- Custom Field. Select the name of the custom field for which to include information.
When you finish, click OK.
If you want the column just defined to be included in column totals whenever the column is included in the HD view, mark the Include In Totals checkbox. Only columns which contain numeric values can be included in totals. The checkbox appears disabled for columns with non-numeric data.
Repeat steps 8-13 for each column you want to add to the financial view.
If you want to include another financial view as a subreport to this view, select the Subreport tab; otherwise, skip to step 18.
In the Subreports table in the Financial View column, select the name of the financial view to incorporate as a subreport.
In the Name column, enter a title for the subreport.
Repeat steps 16-17 for each subreport you need to incorporate in the financial view.
When you finish, save your changes.

View a financial view

After you create and activate a financial view, it becomes available in the ActivReporter > Financial Views folder. You can access the financial view in the HD view or you can print a report.

To filter and view financial data in the HD view:

In the Navigation pane, expand the ActivReporter > Financial Views folder and highlight the subfolder for the financial view you want to see.
If there are filters available for the view and you want to apply one or more of them, select the filter(s) from the Filters drop-down list. (To select multiple filters, press Ctrl as you select filters.)
The behavior of the Lookup field depends on the accounts, segments/rollups, and/or attributes specified when the financial view was defined.
- If you are reporting on account and no attributes are specified, the Lookup field is masked to accept account numbers only. Enter a partial account number, full account number, or account mask to show data for a particular account or group of accounts.
- If you are reporting on one or more segments/rollups and no attributes are specified, the Lookup field is masked to accept values/partial values/masks for the specified segments/rollups. Enter the appropriate values to show data for the specified segments/rollups.
- If you are reporting on account or reporting on segments/rollups AND attributes are also specified, the Lookup field is a text field. Enter appropriate values for the accounts and attributes OR for the segments/rollups and attributes to show data for.
By default, the Include Zero Amounts checkbox is marked. If you want to include rows in the view where all calculated amounts are zero, leave the checkbox marked. If you prefer to hide rows where all calculated amounts are zero, clear the checkbox.
The Period field defaults to the current period for the default calendar. To show data for a different period in the view, press F2 or click the right arrow on the Period field to open the Calendar Period popup.

Select the calendar period for which to include information in the view:
1. From the Calendar drop-down list, select the calendar to view financial data for.
2. To define the reporting period using a relative expression, select or enter the period expression in the Expression field. If you prefer to explicitly enter the year and period, skip to step c.
  
  You can select from the following common period expressions:
  - Current
  - Current - 1 period
  - Current - 1 year
  Alternatively, you can type a valid period expression in the field. For help on period expression syntax, click the help button to the right of the field.
  
  If you enter a period expression, ActivReporter adjusts the values in the Year and Period fields accordingly.
  
  If you enter a period expression, skip to step e.
3. From the Year drop-down list, select the fiscal year to view financial data for.
4. From the Period drop-down list, select the period to view financial data for.
5. Click OK to apply the calendar period change.
If you only want the financial view to show postings through a particular date, enter the date in the As Of field. All postings after the as of date are ignored. The as of date must fall between the current period begin and end dates.
If you want the data in the view to reflect unmerged journal entries that are not on hold, mark the Include Unmerged checkbox.

Note

You can show more columns in the view if desired. To learn how to do so, see "HD view".

Depending on the function selected, none, one, or a combination of the following argument types may be prompted for.

Period Expression

Enter a period expression to describe the reporting period. Period expressions are optional arguments.

Items Expression

Enter a conditional expression to describe the information to include. The conditions you can apply depend on the function selected. For General Ledger functions, you can define conditions based on account numbers, segment items, or rollup items. In general terms, conditional expressions allow you to limit information by any available attribute that makes sense in the context of the selected function.

When writing conditional expressions, it is important to avoid ambiguity in identifying the item you want ActivReporter to evaluate. When ambiguity is possible, you should fully qualify the item name.

Examples

To distinguish the GL account entity from a GL segment named "Account", use "GL.Account" for the entity and "GL.Segment.Account" for the segment.

Items expressions are optional arguments.
