  • Annual Carry Forward -- 11330

CONTENTS


01. OVERVIEW

Use the Annual Carry Forward to close a previous fiscal period and start the year with the previous balance for a new fiscal period.

We recommend closing the fiscal period on December 31, executing the annual carry forward.

Use this routine to generate the starting balances in the Fixed Assets balance tables for the next fiscal period.

The Asset balance tables are:

    • SN5 (Balance Files)
    • SNC (Balances by Accounts and Cost Center)
    • SN6 (Balances by Accounts and Item)
    • SNA (Balances by Accounts x Item x Value Class)

The carry forward is reset in SN3. The depreciation value for the month and the previous fiscal period, in the balance tables, deletes all records of the fiscal period and creates a record with Type - 0, with the date of the new fiscal period. This information is used mainly in the subsidiary ledger (ATFR130), where it presents the previous balance based on the records with field N5_TIPO = 0 previous to the month (selected in report parameters) and the year (logged Database).

On January 01 of the following fiscal period, run the Balance Carry Forward routine.

Example: let us start a new 2011 fiscal period, so set the base date to 1/1/2011. The system clears and deletes the data from the previous fiscal period and creates the type=0 dated 12/31/2010.


Note

After the annual carry forward, some accounts may appear with a negative starting balance. This occurs for property assets (account group 2) with N1_PATRIM $ "SAC") when the account balance is not a loss.

You cannot reverse the Annual Carry Forward process, so backup the database before using the routine if needed.


02. EXAMPLE

In this example of annual carry forward use, the depreciation of the year 2024 was performed and the beginning of fiscal year 2025 is set to zero.

You can observe an excerpt of the subsidiary ledger below, showing that we have transactions to set to zero:

Some assets have also been depreciated, the SN3 fields of which contain the value of the fiscal period:


To execute the Annual Carry Forward, follow the procedure below:

1. Access the routine ATFA080 (SIGAATF > Miscellaneous > Processing > Annual Carry Forward), logging on the first day of the new fiscal period. In this example, to set 2024 to zero you must log on 1/1/2025.

2. Select the Questions screen and answer them as needed. Find below a description of each question and an example of completion:

    1. Use Postings?: Enter Yes to use posted assets to update balances or No to not use them.
    2. Use Postings From?: This question is valid only if you answer Yes to the question Use Postings?. It must contain the start date of the postings to be used.
    3. Use Postings To?: This question is only valid if you answer Yes to the question Use Postings?. It must contain the end date of the postings to be used.
    4. Delete Posted?: Enter Yes for the routine to delete fully posted assets or No to not delete them. This question is not related to "Use Postings?"
    5. Delete Posted Assets From?: This question is valid only if you answer Yes to the question Delete Posted?. It must contain the start date of the postings to be used for deleting fully posted assets.
    6. Delete Posted Assets To?: This question is valid only if you answer Yes to the question Delete Posted Assets?. It must contain the end date of the postings to be used for deleting fully posted assets.
    7. Select Branches?: Enter Yes for the system to use the range of branches in the questions below or No to use only the logged branch.

    9. To Branch?: Final branch for processing.
  1. After filling in the parameters, in the Execution tab, click the button with the Confirm icon and wait for the routine to run:


Following the example above, after processing, when issuing the 2025 Subsidiary Ledger, we have the previous stated balance:

And in SN3, the values have been updated:


Important

We recommend caution when answering the Delete Posted Assets? question with a Yes, because the system deletes the assets in accordance with the dates selected. If you control the posted assets by, for example, monitoring them through reports, under no circumstances should you use this option.
