Multiple Account reporting Multiple Accounts This is a new feature to the SMRT application. While on the main menu, instead of choosing an individual account, you can choose 2, 3, or all accounts that are available within the organizational structure you are currently working with. This can also, depending on the funds you choose, show an all funds report that is used as the default when running multiple report accounting. You choose all accounts by clicking on the All accounts below choice within the accounts by name or accounts by number list boxes, or choose 2 or more accounts within these list boxes by clicking on each account number while holding down the ctrl key on your keyboard.
The report screens will have a different look and feel when running the reports using the multiple account feature. Account Balance Report (includes Month End) Account list The Account Balance report initially shows totals for all accounts chosen on a single page, sort of an all funds view. If you would like to see the same report for one of the individual accounts making up the group totals, at the bottom of the Account Balance report there is a list box of the multiple accounts chosen. It will initially say summary, but by clicking on the arrow to it s right you can expand the list and choose the account you would like to see. Then press the go button to see the individual report. You can also step through the list by pressing the next link at the bottom and this will bring you to the next account on the list.
Open PO s and Payroll Summary for Multiple Accounts Option When choosing either of these reports when viewing multiple accounts, you will see the above screen format will provide a list of accounts and their associated amounts. To see the activity for each account, you can click on the amount field and you will see the appropriate report format with the individual account detail.
Management Summary Reporting This looks a lot like our account main menu with a few differences. The organizational tree on the right works primarily the same way, it selects the accounts you will work with by their organization structure, this is reported on the criteria panel next to the line account group. You can now choose a fiscal year, you can choose all funds, or a combination thereof, and an object group or line or combination thereof. We have 3 management reports to choose from and they can be printed or exported to excel.
PDF print format for Management Reports When you want to print the PDF Management report, printing to legal sized paper is best. To do this you click on the print icon under the address line at the top left. The printer properties panel displays and you need click on the properties tab to get to the changeable properties. Click the layout tab and change the paper orientation to landscape. Press the paper tab and change the paper source to the tray that will hold the legal sized paper. Then change the paper size to legal, save (apply) all these changes and print your report. QUESTIONS??? Diane Wyand Phone: 2130 Email: diane.wyand@plattsburgh.edu
