Save Period End Reports

As with the Sales and Purchase Ledger option covered earlier when you run the Period End for the Stock you often print a series of reports and a ‘Automatic Period End Reports’ option is available that allows you to run a selection of the system reports as one procedure.

This new option allows the Automatic Period End Reports to be saved as PDF files within a set folder on your server – with separate sub-folders for each company, application and period – instead of, or as well as, printing to a spool or print device.

Application User Facilities

A new parameter has been added into the Period End options within Stock Control Application User Facilities. To update select Installation from the main menu followed by Application Manager and then Application User Facilities. Select the Stock Control application followed by Period / Year End.

Base folder in which to save PDF versions of Period / Year-End Reports– enter the folder location where you wish to save PDF copies of the Automatic Period End Reports. Note that any folder specified here should be accessible from all operators who can run the period end.

Within this folder, as the period end reports are saved, the system will create a nested folder structure of the company id, application ident (ST), financial year and period. The financial year is taken from the start date of period 1.
