Use this screen to generate the Labor History to General Ledger Comparison report. This report displays information about accounts/organizations/projects for which amount or hours balances in the Labor History table (LAB_HS) and the General Ledger Posting Summary table (GL_POST_SUM) do not agree. This only includes account/organization/project combinations that are out of balance for the fiscal year and periods selected. Contact Deltek Customer Care to discuss methods for correcting any out-of-balance conditions noted on the report.
Generating this report changes no data.
Print this report at least once each period, early in the period-end closing process, to ensure that the Labor History and G/L Posting Summary tables are in balance. If you discover any out-of-balance conditions, retain this report as supporting documentation for any adjustments you make as a result.
Use the fields in this block to create a new parameter ID or to retrieve a previously saved parameter ID. A parameter ID represents a set of screen selection parameters. After you have saved a parameter ID and its related parameters, you can retrieve them using Query.
You can use the retrieved parameters to produce reports and run processes more efficiently and with greater consistency. The saved parameters are also useful and necessary when you want to run the process as part of a batch job. Many users save a unique set of parameters for each different way they run a report or process. When you select a previously saved parameter ID or parameter description, the associated saved screen selection parameters automatically display as selection defaults. The page setup and print options are also included in the saved parameter ID if there are any. You can change any of the associated selection defaults as necessary.
Enter, or click to select, a parameter
ID of up to 15 alphanumeric characters. Choose characters for your parameter
ID that help identify the type of selections you made in the screen, such
as PERIOD or QUARTERLY.
When you save your record, all the selections made in the screen are stored with the parameter ID. Later, you can retrieve the parameter using Query.
You can use the parameter to run the process more efficiently because you can select the parameter ID with its previously defined screen selections. After the default selections display in the screen, you can override the defaults.
Enter, or click to select, a parameter
description of up to 30 alphanumeric characters.
Enter, or click to select, the fiscal year for which you want to print the comparison report.
