Profit and Loss & AJE’s

Posted on by 370

It appears that when I run a Profit and Loss for last year, the account figures are the period 12 net change, is there a way to build the report so it reflects the account ending balance? There were a series of Adjusting Journal Entries our CPA had us enter that were dated 12/31, and the net change doesn’t reflect these.

    Hi Taylor,

    Does your company use Mangement Reporter (Report Designer) or some other financial report system outside of GP (Jet Reports, Solver, etc)?  I would look at those because these built-in financial reports are not used by many customers.  They are clunky and difficult to customize.

    Still having the same issues. Also tried creating a new quick report with the same issue.

    Hi Taylor,

    From your update it sounds like you are running Advanced Financial (AFA) reporting in Dynamics GP and the existing report layout is damaged in some manner.

    If this is the case, please use the Reports | Financial | Advanced Financial Reports window to create and save a NEW report option for the Profit & Loss Type.  Then use the Reports | Financial | Financial Statements window to print out the NEW report you had just saved for the same period.

    If this corrects the issue the new report should be used going forward.  If the issue is still existing it may be more beneficial to open a support ticket so we can troubleshoot the report performance directly.

    Best Regards,

    Jeff

    It didn't seem to update anything. The journal entries were manually keyed, so I am not sure what went wrong.

    Also, there is a debit amount under other income and expenses, but it is being added as though it is a credit. I would just change the expression for this, but the subtraction symbol is grayed out, and I am only able to use the addition and the thru functions.

    Thanks for the help!

    Hello Taylor,

    If you haven't already, please run Tools | Utilities | Financial | Reconcile on ALL years to see if the reporting changes at all for as long as the 12/31 entries have the prior year stamp (2020) in place in the GL30000 they should update the net change summary value effectively.  If reconcile doesn't correct the issue it is possible that the entries might be missing the functional currency value if they were imported and not manually keyed into Dynamics GP.

    Best Regards,

    Jeff
