If you select a currency, this currency will overrule any currency entered in the corresponding field in the card part of the G/L Report Set-Up workspace for the report in question.

If you enter information in the field, this information will overrule any information entered in the corresponding field in the card part of the G/L Report Set-Up workspace for the report in question. However, on the individual lines in the report, this exchange rate table can in some cases be overruled according to the derivation priorities described in the field “Exchange Rate Table.” For further information on how the exchange rate table used in the individual fields on individual lines is determined, please see the description of that field.
Exchange Rate Date In this field, you can specify the date whose exchange rates should be used for converting amounts from one currency into another in the report. If you enter a date in the field, this information will overrule any date entered in the corresponding field in the card part of the G/L Report Set-Up workspace for the report in question.

Print Control Island

Field Description
Layout Here you can select the layout of the report. If you do not choose a layout, Maconomy uses the layout of the column specification attached to the report you are printing.
Number of Days until Expiry If the report is to be saved, that is, the field “Save Output Data” has been marked, you can specify in this field the length of the report’s validity period. The validity period is used for ensuring that only one report of a given kind exists at a time, thus making sure everybody can refer to the same report. If you do not specify a number of days, the value in the corresponding field for the report in the G/L Report Set-Up workspace will determine the number of days until expiry. For a description of the functionality of expiry dates on G/L report output data, please see the “Number of Days until Expiry” field in the G/L Report Set-Up workspace.
Reprint Mark this field if you want to reprint a report that has already been saved in the system, rather than generating a new report. If you want to reprint a report, you must specify in this workspace the exact selection criteria of the desired report. You can see the criteria of the individual saved reports in the Reprint G/L Reports workspace. If none of the reports saved in Maconomy has the exact selection criteria that you have specified in this workspace, Maconomy issues an error message. If several saved reports have the exact same selection criteria, Maconomy reprints the one that was generated most recently.
Save Output Data In this field, you can specify that Maconomy should save the output data created when the report is run. If you do not mark this field, the value in the corresponding field for the report in the G/L Report Set-Up workspace will determine whether the output should be saved. For a description of the functionality of expiry dates on G/L report output data, please see the “Number of Days until Expiry” field in the G/L Report Set-Up workspace.
Print Report In this field, you can specify whether the report should be printed on paper when it is run. This can be useful if a report contains sensitive information, and your reports are usually run at night. In those cases, you might prefer that the output is not printed right away, thereby lying in the printer all morning for anyone to see.

If you do not mark this field, the value in the corresponding field for the report in the G/L Report Set-Up workspace will determine whether the output should be printed.

Notify Users In this field, you can specify whether people to whom this report is relevant should be notified when the report is run. The field is for information only, as no notification procedures are run when the report is generated. If you do not mark this field, the value in the corresponding field for the report in the G/L Report Set-Up workspace will determine whether users should be notified.
