Analytical year-end simulation
Use this parameter to define how carry-forward balances are managed for a year-end simulation with analytical dimensions.
This parameter does not have any impact on simulation carry-forward functionality.
A year-end simulation can include updating the balance of the carry-forward entries so you can generate inquiries and reports with balances being carried-forward even if the previous fiscal year is not closed.
If set to Yes, the balance of carry-forward entries are updated for the next open year-end balance in the analytical balance and pre-consolidated balance for ledgers with consolidation and analytical management.
For example:
Fiscal years 2015, 2016, and 2017 are open. A journal entry is posted for 2015 on the balance sheet accounts with carry-forward management and carry-forward records are created in 2016 in the analytical balance and in the pre-consolidated balance for ledgers with consolidation and analytical management.
If set to No, the balance of carry-forward entries are not updated for the next open year-end balance in the analytical balance and pre-consolidated balance for ledgers with consolidation and analytical management.
For example:
Fiscal years 2015, 2016, and 2017 are open. A journal entry is posted for 2015 on the balance sheet accounts with carry-forward management. When posting a journal entry in 2015, carry-forward records are not created in the analytical balance nor in the pre-consolidated balance for 2016. You need to run the simulation carry forward functionality on 2016 to generate the carry forward records in both the analytical and pre-consolidated balances.
