Creating Journal Reports

You can create journal reports to check the status of journals and to review journal adjustments. You can set journal report properties, select columns to display, preview, save, and print the reports.

Note:

You can format and print the report using HFM-Format, PDF, RTF, HTML, or XLS. See Formatting System Reports.

When you run journal reports using elimination or proportional values, elimination journals or proportional journals are created automatically, which may result in error messages due to the large volume of journals. To avoid this problem, you should filter the list of journals to display on the reports using the Journals Group as the filter.

To create journal reports:

1. Select Consolidation, then Journals, and then Reports.
2. Click New, then Reports, and then Journal, or select Actions, then New, then Reports, and then Journal.
3. From the Point of View, select a Scenario, Year, Period, and Value for the report.

   Note:

   To run a journal report for automated consolidation journals, you must select [Elimination] or [Proportion] as the Value member.

4. Select columns and display options for the report.

   See Displaying Columns for the Report.
