Selecting Matching Report Options

When you run a Matching Report, you can display or suppress various types of transaction detail. For example, you can suppress details and matched transactions.

You can select single or multiple members and a list for the entity and partner selection. If you do not select any members for the entity and partner, the system displays transactions for all entities and partners.

In addition to the entity and partner selection, you must specify the matching currency to use for the report.

Suppressing Details

If you want the Matching Report to display only the subtotal amount, you can select to suppress the intercompany details. When you select this option, the report displays only the total difference for each entity/partner section. If there is a discrepancy and you need to view each intercompany transaction, you can regenerate the report and show intercompany details.

Suppressing Matched Transactions

You can select these options for suppressing matched transactions:

  • Matched using Transaction Currency Amount

  • Matched using Matching Currency Amount

    Note:

    If both options are selected, the system suppresses the transaction only if both conditions are met.

Since the matching tolerance amount is always entered in the matching report currency and is in the scale of the matching report, the system must first translate the transaction currency amount or the entity currency amount, and the total difference is then compared to the matching tolerance amount.

If you select to suppress matched transactions using the transaction or matching currency, the system suppresses the transactions if the entity and partner amounts are within the matching tolerance amount that you specify. For example, if an entity has an amount of 299 and the partner has 200, the difference is 99. If the matching tolerance amount is 100 and the difference between the entity and partner is less than 100 as in this example, the system suppresses the transactions because it is within the matching tolerance.
