GL: Budget Report
Overview
The Budget Report provides the actual budget amounts as they were entered for the selected financial format. If you use the Payroll Tax Allocation program, the Payroll Taxes and Insurance are broke out by each tax code. The Record Types to Report must be a Financial Statement or a Job Cost Projection (Show All Budgets).
You can filter, group, and print by Tiers, allowing for total customization of the report. To make filtering easier, for any Tier, you can include All, Pick/Create or Exclude parameters. Using Tier Templates to set up and save report templates makes it easy to generate a specific report each time you need it, without having to recreate the criteria. See Using Tier Templates for more information.
Key Functionality
Type a description to name the report. This description prints above the Report Title.
The Default Company Name for Report is populated from the Company Setup screen. The list contains all companies for which you have security permissions to view. If you have permission for only one company, that will be the only one displayed in the list. If you have permissions to multiple companies, the list will display those companies PLUS the default reporting company.
When discernible, WinTeam will print the appropriate company name and logo on each page; otherwise the Default Company Name will print. That is, if a Company level is included in the tiered section and is displayed in the tiered information at the bottom of the page, then that company's Report Name and Logo (if selected) prints on that page.
If there is not a Company identified in the tier area of the page, then the Default Company Name for Reports is used. The default Company Name and Logo is also used for the Total Enterprise report. For more information see Learning about WinTeam Reports.
Use the Format Description list to select the Profit and Loss statement from the Formatting of Financial Statements. Only the statements entered in the Formatting of Financial Statements screen as Profit and Loss Format Types will display on the list.
Use the Fiscal Year list to select the fiscal year to use for the report.
Note: Only the fiscal years set up in the Fiscal Year Setup (defaults) are available from the list.
Use the Record Types to Report option group to select the types of budget accounts to include on the report.
When choosing the Record Types to Report it is important to note that the system looks first at the accounts included in the selected Format Description. The system then looks to the Record Types to Report to determine if Financial Statement and/or Job Cost or both will be included. The GL Accounts included in the selected Record Types to Report are determined by the Financial Statement and Job Cost check boxes available in the GL Budgets screen (Budget Details section).
Select Financial Statement to include those accounts with budget information that have the Fin St check box selected.
This setting must be in place when the Financial Statement option for Record Types to Report is selected in order to use the Daily Labor Budgets.
