The following describes the steps in editing an existing Cash Flow Item:

To Edit an Existing Cash Flow Item:

Important:

Do not set a China Cash Flow Item category as inactive at any time when using this feature as this will cause your reports to display incorrect values. Make sure that when you’re editing your Cash Flow Item category you are editing or creating a new one.

1. Go to Setup > Company > China Cash Flow Item.

2. Find a Cash Flow Item.

3. Click Edit.

4. In the Name field, change the name.

   Important:

   Change only the Name when editing any of the 22 provided top-level China Cash Flow Item classifiers. Changing any setting other than the Name for these built in top-level classifiers will cause your China Cash Flow Statement to report incorrect or incomplete values.

5. In the Category dropdown, ensure that this value is the same as the category set in its parent Cash Flow Item classifier.

6. If there is an Inactive box, leave the Inactive box clear. If this was checked, ensure that you clear this. Marking a Cash Flow Item classifier as inactive will cause your cash flow statement report to display incorrect values.

7. (Optional) In the Parent dropdown, select a parent Cash Flow Item classifier. You can select a child Cash Flow Item up to one child classifier level. Do not set a parent for any of the 22 provided top-level China Cash Flow Item categories.

8. In the Inflow/Outflow dropdown, ensure that the value is the same as the Inflow/Outflow value of the cash flow item classifier set for the parent classifier.

9. Click Save.
