This section includes the fields and descriptions for the Ad Hoc Analysis tab.
Report Island
| Field | Description |
|---|
| Name
|
Here you specify the name of the report, the name being the sole identification of the report. You cannot change the name of an existing report. To retrieve existing reports, use the search functions in the Find menu. The name is transferred to the tab-separated file created by the “Create tab-separated file” action.
|
| Updated since Last Calculation
|
This field shows whether the report has been redefined since the last calculation. If the field is marked, you cannot transfer the report to a tab-separated file before recalculating the values. This is a precaution against inconsistencies.
When you make a new calculation using the “Calculate Ad Hoc Analysis” action, Maconomy removes the mark. You cannot change the value manually.

| Company

These fields display the range of companies for the last calculation of the current report. If these fields are empty, no company range was entered when the report was created. The value cannot be changed. It is copied to the tab-separated file created using the “Create tab-separated file” action.

Currency Island
| Field | Description |

| Reporting Currency
|
In this field, you can specify the currency in which periodic figures should be displayed. All amounts in the window be converted into and displayed in this currency. If the current user has been assigned to a company in the window Users, Maconomy suggests the company base currency of the company in question.
When converting amounts into the selected currency, Maconomy uses the exchange rates valid on the date entered in the field “Exchange Rate Date” below, and the exchange rate table used is the exchange rate table selected in the System Information workspace in the Set-Up module. Please note that Maconomy performs currency conversion even though the original amount has been registered in the same currency as the one specified in this field, which may cause discrepancies between the registered amounts and the amounts shown in this window.
|
| Exchange Rate Date
|
In this field, you can specify an exchange rate date. When converting amounts into the reporting currency, Maconomy uses the exchange rates that are valid on this date according to the enterprise exchange rate table selected in the System Information workspace in the Set-Up module for conversion of currency amounts. See also the field “Reporting Currency.”
