General Settings

Opening Balance Period

This is a read only property that identifies the earliest reporting period you can use in Calxa.

Last Month in Financial Year

Indicates the financial year end. It is automatically determined from your accounting system. Some reports use your financial year to determine year to date values for example and therefore you may wish to temporarily change the year end period. This setting will be reset the next time you sync with your accounting system.

Bank Overdraft Limit

If you have an overdraft facility with your bank you can reflect this in your Cashflow Forecast report by entering the amount of the overdraft in the Bank Overdraft Limit field.

Last Actuals Period

This represents the latest in which you have a complete month of actuals. This will update automatically when you sync with your accounting data to the last complete calendar month. Unless otherwise chosen in report criteria this is the default period where reports will switch from Actual to Forecast and it is also used in the Budget Factory for the same purpose.

Currency

This will default to the currency of your connected accounting system, you can however change that if required. To report in an alternative currency or include in a Group, see the Consolidated Group settings.

Sync Settings

The Sync Settings section provides options related to the sync process.

Settings vary by accounting system so please review the ?Help information and also refer to the following help articles for more details.
