Period Variances Island
| Field | Description |
|---|
| Posting Reference
|
In this field, you can enter a dimension combination of the type Posting Reference. By means of this dimension combination Maconomy can make automatic offsets of period variances when you approve an assigned budget journal on which the periods do not balance but on which the closing balance is zero. Period variances are posted on the account specified on the dimension combination. In this way, you can approve budget journals on which the periods do not balance, but on which the closing balance is zero. If a dimension combination was specified at creation of the budget model, this field will show the specified dimension combination. However, you can change the dimension combination in this window. The dimension combination is not mandatory, and offsets for period variance entries should thus only be used if the current budget journal contains variances on current period entries. Period variances on approved budget journals can be inspected in the windows Show Budget Entries and Budget Inspection.
|
| Entry Description
|
In this field, you can enter an entry text to be assigned to automatic offsets of period variances.
