Configure Options

Configure options enable you to customize the Financial Statement Areas Worksheet. These options are organized into two groups:

  • Refresh options, which are applied when the Financial Statement Areas Worksheet is refreshed or regenerated.
  • Regenerate options, which are applied only when the Financial Statement Areas Worksheet is regenerated.

The firm author may have disabled regeneration of the Financial Statement Areas Worksheet in your client file. If regeneration is disabled, the Regenerate options are not displayed.

Refresh options

Option Description

Planning

From the drop-down list, select the planning balance on which the Financial statement areas worksheet is to be based. Select Current Year to use the current year preliminary import, or select Prior Year to use the prior year final balance.

Regenerate options

Option Description

Include zero amount

Use the check box to include line items with zero amounts in both planning and current balances in the worksheet.

Grouping:

From the drop-down list, select the mapping / grouping used in the engagement file. The default is by Leadsheet.

Include From

From the drop-down list, select the starting point of the grouping number.

Include To:

From the drop-down list, select the ending point of the grouping number.

Mask Level

From the drop down list, select the grouping mask level to generate. For example, say a grouping uses three levels (e.g. XXX.XXX.XXX), where the first level represents the financial statement type (Balance Sheet), the second level represents the financial statement line items (Cash and Cash equivalents), and the third represents account details (Bank - foreign). You would likely set the mask level at 2. If you are unsure of your full mapping mask, double click the cell to open a dialog that displays the mask.

Include Parent Numbers

Select this check box if you want to display the parent numbers of the group numbers specified by Mask Level. For example, suppose that Mask Level is 3, which means that group 140.101.1 is displayed. If Include Parent Numbers is selected, parent groups 140 and 140.101 are also displayed.

Note:

  • Leaving the Include From and Include To fields blank will generate all items.

  • If the worksheet is regenerated, all details entered related to each financial statement assertion will be deleted. To only update the balances, users should use Refresh.
