Configure the reporting cockpit

You link the relevant ledger accounts to each reporting code. In most cases, you link multiple ledger accounts to a reporting code. You can do this in two ways:

• You open the properties of a ledger account and link the reporting code to it.
• You open the properties of a reporting code and link all relevant ledger accounts.

  Note:

  You can copy the reporting codes and underlying links with ledger accounts to other environments under the same license. You can also import and change this field by selecting Financial / Management / Import ledger / Reporting cockpit. The licence is irrelevant during the import process.

To link a reporting code to each ledger account:

1. Go to: Financial / Ledger / Configuration / Reporting structure.
2. Open the view: Ledger accounts still to be linked.

   You see all ledger accounts without a link to a reporting code. This means that these ledger accounts do not yet show up in any of the reports.

3. Open the properties of a ledger account.
4. Go to the tab: General.
5. Select a reporting code in Reporting cockpit.
6. Click on: OK.

To link ledger accounts to each reporting code:

1. Go to: Financial / Ledger / Configuration / Reporting structure.
2. Open the view:Reporting cockpit.
3. Open the properties of the reporting code you want to link.

   You see the breakdown and the description of the code on the General tab. You can only link ledger accounts if the Code field has been completed.

4. Go to the tab: Ledger account.

   The linked ledger accounts are displayed. This view is empty if no ledger accounts have been linked yet.

5. Click on: New.

   Only the ledger accounts that are still to be linked are displayed, thus making it impossible to link an account twice. If the view is empty, you cannot make a selection and you then know that all ledger accounts have been linked.

6. Select the ledger account(s) to be linked.
7. Click on: Finish.
