Groups

In Financials, cells of similar formatting type are organized into groups. The firm can then use the Groups pane in the CL - Organization standards document to modify a group to make changes to all cells of its type.

The following groups are defined:

Group	Description
AlphaTable	Text cells in the financial statements, including the Description and Note Reference columns.
AlphaTableNote	Text cells within a note table, including the Description and Note Reference column.
AlphaTextNote	Text cells within a paragraph.
NumericTable	Numeric cells in the financial statements, including the Current period, Prior period, Prior period 2, and Budget columns.
NumericTableNote	Numeric cells within a note table, including the Current period, Prior period, Prior period 2, and Budget columns.
NumericTextNote	Numeric cells within a paragraph.
PercentTable	Percent cells in the financial statements.
PercentTableNote	Percent cells within a note table.
PercentTextNote	Percent cells within a paragraph.
DecimalTable	Decimal cells in the financial statements.
DecimalTableNote	Decimal cells within a note table.
DecimalTextNote	Decimal cells within a paragraph.
RationalTable	Same as DecimalTable, but excludes the currency symbol.
RationalTableNote	Same as DecimalTableNote, but excludes the currency symbol.
RationalTextNote	Same as DecimalTextNote, but excludes the currency symbol.

When you select a group, a description of the group is displayed, and additional fields appear that enable you to specify formatting for the group. The fields available depend on the group selected, but always consist of some or all of the following:

Shade type	The shade type for each cell belonging to the group.
Shade colour	The colour for the shade type selected. This field appears only if you select a shade type other than Default or None.
Decimal point	The number of digits to the right of the decimal point.
Display zero as	How zero values are to be displayed.
