For the mapping of accounts, two main approaches are available:
- Using a 1-column nomenclature which unites the Statement of
financial position and Income statement items (named FS
Lines). The selected item will be automatically filled in
the column of the respective statement.
- Using a 2-column nomenclature - one for the Statement of financial
position items and one for the Income statement
items. The selected item will be
automatically filled in the FS Lines column.
When mapping, you can mark the ''-'' column for cases when the value
of the selected account should be taken with a reverse sign in
calculations.
