Presentation
The Accumulation levels table determines the number of elements to be crossed and their crossing order.
The analytical balance inquiry authorizes the management of a maximum of nine accumulation levels.
From six pyramids onwards, the accumulation levels are possible up to nine levels, within the limit of the three following cases:
Let us consider the following entry:
ANA chart | PRO type | CCT type | Amount |
Account 701000 | PRODUCT1 | COST1 | 1.111: |
Account 701000 | PRODUCT2 |
| 2.222: |
Account 701000 |
| COST2 | 3.333: |
CCT and PRO types are not mandatory.
When inquiring the analytical balance, the results are the following:
Example of a standard inquiry:
ANA chart | Project type |
Analytical account |
|
BP |
The analytical balance will be viewed by BP and by project.

Fields
The following fields are present on this tab :
Company
|
Enter the company code for the inquiry. You can enter the code for:
If the inquiry concerns a group, several conditions must be met:
|
|
Select the ledger type on which the balance will be based. The inquiry will only deal with those ledgers involved in an analytical tracking. |
|
It is possible to analyze the accounting data for a site or a group of sites.
If only one site is the subject of an inquiry, the same code must be entered in the Start and End fields. |
|
  |
Budget
|
Select the budget assigned when generating the analytical balance. The program submits the codes of those budgets whose chart codes are located on the ledger type, but it does not submit those having the option Operating budget checked.
|
|
Select the version of the budget that will be concerned by the analytical balance. Only one version of a same budget must be checked as 'Default'.
|
Grid Periods
|
This date is used to define the inquiry start period. |
|
This date is used to define the inquiry end period. |
Grid Columns
|
The system can manage a maximum of ten extracted amounts, each being linked to its extraction period. |
|
This field is used to specify the period (in the 'Periods' block) for which the inquiry of the amount will take place (maximum of three). |
Grid Accumulation levels
|
The 'BP' type is not submitted if a budget is requested. |
|
This field contains the code of the concerned dimension view. |
|
Non-mandatory field used to request an inquiry following an account or dimension pyramid. The submitted list of available pyramids is linked to the selected chart of accounts or dimension type. |
|
Definition level of a group of accounts or a group of dimensions. |
|
If no start or end account or dimension is specified, the totaling will concern:
based on the 'Account" or 'Dimension' choice. |
|
  |
|
Printing order of the groups of a same level. |
|
  |
Currencies
|
The extraxcted amounts are stored in the transaction currency and the ledger-keeping currency. Entering the currency of origin is used to filter and only consider the amounts for the transaction currency specified here. |
|
The print currency makes it possible to display the amounts in this currency. When this currency is the local currency, the amounts are extracted and displayed directly from the balance. Otherwise, amounts are converted to the exchange rate type specified in the CNSCURTYP parameter and at the inquiry date. |
|
When the currency is not stored in the table and the print currency is different from the currency of origin, the exchange rate is requested. |
|
This field specifies the conversion sense selected to display the exchange rate. |
|
The budget is stored in a single currency. In the event of a budget being assigned via the generation of the analyical balance, if the print currency is different from the currency entered at budget level, you need to specify the budget exchange rate. |
|
This field specifies the conversion sense selected to display the exchange rate. |
Miscellaneous
|
If this box is checked, the program adds a column, in the balance print, that will be loaded with the code of the site to which the various totalling levels belong. |
|
Only those recordings for which all the requested dimension types are entered will be retrieved. |
|
It is possible to request the print of the carry-forward entries by checking the Carry-forward box. |
|
If the inquiry screen specified in the following field plans the display of titles, it is possible to choose the display of short titles by checking the Short title box. |
|
This field displays the recordings corresponding to the request, even if no dimension type has been entered. |
|
Check the box Close if you wish to print the closing entries. |
Destination
|
Ton print the analytical balance, it is possible to check:
|
|
This field is used to enter the code of the report than can be used for the balance printing. There are various print types: preview (PREVISU) submitting an overview of the balance before printing, the editing in a pdf (PDF) file, the inserting of the report in a message and the printing directly on your printer. |
|
This compulsary field is used to enter the screen code that can be used for the inquiry of the balance. |
Presentation
|
This field is used to choose the printing sense. The presentation sense impacts the commitment and pre-commitment columns. |
|
Specify a unit for the divisor. For example, to build a budget in Euro, enter 1. All amounts will be divided by 1 (Amount = €10,000 Amount obtained = 10,000). To build a budget in Kilo Euro, enter 1,000. All amounts will be divided by 1,000 (Amount = €10,000 Amount obtained in Kilo Euro = 10). |
Close
For any account/type(s) combination, the Analytical quantity column displays the total of quantity balances. This total is calculated by considering the +/- sign of each entry line and by applying the Debit-Credit formula.
The quantity on the entry line is considered as having the same sign as the line amount.
Example:
Entry | Balance |
Entry with a positive credit amount and positive quantity | The balance of the quantity is displayed with a minus sign in the analytical balance/pyramid inquiry. |
Entry with a negative credit amount and negative quantity | The balance of the quantity is displayed with no sign, meaning a positive value, in the analytical balance/pyramid inquiry. |
Entry with a positive debit amount and positive quantity | The balance of the quantity is displayed with no sign, meaning a positive value, in the analytical balance/pyramid inquiry. |
Entry with a negative debit amount and negative quantity | The balance of the quantity is displayed with a minus sign in the analytical balance/pyramid inquiry. |

The analytical balance can be launched using a budget code when:
However, at the details level, for totals related to accounts with or without a pyramid (and with or without an access code), the accounts are locked: when the user does not have inquiry rights or the proper access code to some accounts, then these accounts are not displayed. Besides, in this context, the total displayed in the details grid only includes the amounts related to accounts authorized for inquiry.
Here, the software does not consider the potential budget and/or pyramid access codes, but focuses on the access code set up for accounts.
In the event of an analytical balance inquiry with a "dimension"-type totaling level, no lock applies to the screen access codes, whether it concerns a budget, a pyramid or a dimension. All the valued dimensions belonging to the specified dimension type are displayed, even if for some dimensions the user does not have the related access codes, or does but without inquiry rights.
In addition to the generic error messages, the following messages can appear during the entry :
The inquiry is requested for a group where the charts of accounts are not identical.
The inquiry targets a group where companies do not have the same period split.
The inquiry applies to a group where ledgers have different currencies.
The inquiry is requested for a company group that includes more companies than the maximum value defined in the BLAMAXCPY – Dimension balance inquiry max parameter (CPT chapter, ANA group).
