Opening Balances: Group Financial Statements - Review Booklet

Hello there,

As per our customer requirements, to ensure cash flow statement balances are correct, while using Group Financial Statements – Review Booklet, we’ve attempted to bring in “Opening cash balances”, “Ending cash balances” and “Change in Cash Balances”. This will allow the user to easily tie “chance in cash balances” with the summarized cash flow statement balance. Fairly standard accounting procedure. Our goal was to bring in the highlighted reporting items below, which are mapped to their respective cash balances through reporting rules.

In testing this report within “Group Financial Statements – Review Booklet”, we’ve found success with reporting against current year data, using the “Closing Period vs. Previous Period”.

When running this report variant, we noticed that no CY data with the following attributes were being pulled:

  • Period - 000/XXXX
  • Subitem “900”

As per Balance Carryforward in Preparation Ledger Integration, all beginning FS item balances will be posted to period 000, defined with subitem “900”. As a result, my reporting rules have been designed to pull this data, among other current year values.

In looking further into this issue, I’m led to believe that the CDS element for which the above noted reporting variant leverages, does not including this data. If this is true, can someone please help me understand whether I can configure a copy of the “Group Financial Data - review booklet” to include the data I’m looking for? Will this effort also require creating a custom CDS view? Perhaps someone has dealt with this issue in the past?

Hi Henrike - I actually created an incident initially but was met with extensive delays, so came to the group for assistance. I was however able to get an answer through the incident. The problem was system wide and corrected through a hotfix. I would note, that we still find this app to be unstable, but its been fairly adequate so leaving it for now.
