(Italy) General ledger simulations Feature | Complete guide for Setup | Operations | Report
General ledger simulations allow you to post simulated ledger transactions from the general journal and then review reports that include the simulated transactions.
This feature is available only for legal entities
with a primary address in Italy.
You can post simulation transactions only for
journal lines where Account type and Offset account type are equal
to Ledger. You can delete the
simulated ledger transactions, modify them, and move them to the real general
ledger posted transactions. You can review the posted simulation ledger
transactions in the reports, Trial
balance and Dimension
statement with simulation.
Setup
Create a number sequence
for the simulated general journal transfer by standard way
1. Go to General ledger > Ledger setup > General ledger parameters.
2. On the Number sequences tab, set the
sequence to Simulation general
journal transfer.
Create a Simulation journal
1. Go to General ledger > Journal setup > Journal name and create a new
journal called 'Simulation'.
2. Set the Journal type to Daily.
3. In the Simulation field, select Yes.
4. In the Simulation journal field group,
set Requires validation to Yes to indicate that the journal
must be validated before the simulated posting is executed.
Operations
Create and post simulation transaction
1. Go to General Ledger > Journal Entries > Simulation journals.
2. Create journal lines
as Ledger - Ledger in the
standard way, and then select Post > Post simulation to post the
simulation transactions. This makes the transaction effective for simulation
calculations, and the journal becomes simulation posted.
3. Select Post > Reopen to make the posted
simulation transaction editable.
4. Select Post > Post to move the posted simulation
transaction to an ordinary ledger.
Important
The
function that closes a fiscal period or a fiscal year verifies that the
simulation transactions have been posted as typical transactions or have been
deleted. If there are pending simulated general ledger transactions for the
period, an error message appears.
Periodic operations
Post all simulation transactions
·
To
post simulation transactions for all simulation journals, go to Periodic tasks > Simulations > Post simulation journals.
Transactions will be no longer include simulation
transactions after all journals are posted.
Reopen all simulation
journals
·
To
reopen all simulation journals, go to Periodic
tasks > Simulations > Reopen simulation journals.
All simulation posted simulation journals are
reopened. You can edit the Simulation journals and post simulation again.
Delete all simulation
journals
·
To
delete all open simulation journals, go to Periodic tasks > Simulations > Delete simulation journals.
Review simulation
transactions in reports
Simulation transactions can be reviewed in several
ledger reports.
Note
Simulation
transactions do not appear on the Italian fiscal journal until they become real
transactions.
Create a Simulation Journal
name group
1. Go to General ledger > Journal setup > Simulations > Simulation journal group.
2. Create a simulation
journal group.
3. On the Simulation journals tab, select to include simulation journals in this group from the list of available simulation journals.
Trial balance
1. Go to General Ledger > Inquiries and reports > Trial balance.
2. On the Parameters FastTab of the Trial balance report header,
select a value in the Simulation
journal group field.
3. Enter other
parameters and calculate the balances.
4. Verify that the
report contains columns that consider simulation transactions, this includes:
·
Debit (simulation)
·
Credit (simulation)
·
Closing balance (with simulations) - This is the
total of the values in the Closing
balance, Debit (simulation) and Credit (simulation) columns.
Dimension statement with
simulation
1. Go to General Ledger > Inquiries and reports > Ledger reports > Dimension statement with simulation.
2. Set Simulation journal transactions to Yes in the Statement by dimension dialog
menu.
3. Select a value in
the Simulation journal group field,
and then select OK.
4. Verify that the
report contains posted simulation transactions and standard ledger
transactions.
