This chapter contains the topic:
From EMEA Localizations (G74), choose French Reports
From French Reports (G093151), choose an option under the Trial Balance Reports heading
You can print a trial balance report that accommodates specific French reporting needs. You can use the report for internal and external audits to validate your local accounting system.
The French Trial Balance report provides:
Debit and credit account totals
Balance forward amounts
French account formats (object.subsidiary or category codes)
The reports are also designed with specific business objectives, such as the following information:
Accumulation of multiple ledger type transactions
Accounting logic (by object.subsidiary or category code) versus analytical logic (by Business Unit)
The traditional format and contents of a trial balance report in France varies from the trial balance reports that J.D. Edwards provides in the base software solution. The French Trial Balance report includes:
A total for each account and subtotals for account classes
Transaction detail in debit and credit format
Accumulation of different ledger types for the same account
Information that is specific to a period (month and year) selection
You can run the French Trial Balance report by object and subsidiary or by category code, depending on whether your accounts are defined in the object.subsidiary or in category codes 21, 22, or 23.
Set up the ledger types on which you want to report in the user defined codes file 74/LT. See Section 4.1, "Setting Up User Defined Codes for France."
