Enhancements

Financial analysis report

ABSS have added a Financial Analysis report.

It has some basic financial ratio analysis to help company stakeholders understand how well the business is performing and potential areas that need improvement.

This report can be found at Index to Reports -> Accounts -> Balance Sheet: Financial Analysis.

The sample report will look like this:

Account List Detail Report

The ‘Account List Detail’ report has been updated  to include a new report field, ‘Financial Analysis Acc Group’.

By including this field in the report, it will show the financial analysis account grouping that an account is associated with.

Import/Export Account Information

Import and export Accounts List functions have been updated with the new field Financial Analysis Account Group.

Export to Excel xlsx File

All reports that currently have the Send to Excel option, now includes the ‘Excel Xlsx File’ option as well.
