Hello:
We are using Management Reporter 2012 CU13 (MR), and we have several foreign entities represented by GP companies. To that end, we have created several consolidated balance sheets and income statements using trees containing all companies--both foreign and domestic.
Two of our foreign entities are new and, therefore, have no fiscal years prior to 2016.
I noticed in MR that, if I tried to generate one of our consolidated statements as of the end of the previous fiscal year, it caused the entire report to not generate. The error that appeared in the Report Queue Status window stated something along the lines of "period does not exist for company".
I could understand if MR were to prevent generating of data for the two new companies that have no data from the prior fiscal year. But, I'm surprised that the entire report was prevented from generating data for any entity.
My concern about this regards what happens if we create new GP companies in the future. If we have to generate a consolidated statement for a period prior to the first fiscal period of the new company, are we not going to be able to generate consolidated statements?
If so, is there a checkbox or some sort of mechanism within MR that would allow for the report to generate simply by ignoring branches of the tree representing new companies?
Thanks! Much appreciated!
John
