Through this routine, accounting comparisons can be made for quotation phases and for different balances created according to the company balance structure.

Through configuration of parameters, the balance copy can be processed considering a specific period and the origin balance type. Only one currency can be selected or all currencies can be considered. Separate accounting entries from balances or just balances up to an initial date informed, or even copy entries and balances; calculate summarized balances from an accounting entity, be it an account, a cost center, an item or a value class.

Data are saved in the table of accounting entries, in the final date or period informed, and can be identified through the legend color.

The copy of balances comprises two different execution modes:

  • Simple balances
  • Copy of multiple balance types

 

The report Comparison of Balance Type x Months displays and compares balances or movements, with up to three balance types.

Example:

This example considers comparisons among quotation phases of type Quoted original x Quoted reviewed x Performed.


Important:

Besides copying balances, procedures of maintenance must be performed in the quotation register.

The "original" quoted balance must be the final status of quotations structured for the period.

Important:

After the generation of quotation balances, this process feeds balance tables with records identified by the column Balance Type with content zeroed, currently identified by "Quoted" balance type.

After generating balance records, the routine Copy of Balances must be run, copying quoted balances for another balance type that shall constitute the "original quoted balance."

The destination copy made is then considered as the original quoted balance (which will not be changed); thus, any reviews and/or changes made in the quotation shall affect records with balance type equal to 0 (zero), that is, quoted balance types. This column is then considered the "reviewed quoted balance" column.

Note:

The nomenclature of balance types may be changed; new types of balances may be created through the routine Accounting Configurations as well.
