Accounting entries file (FEC) filters

The Accounting entries file (FEC) compiles all the data related to bookkeeping and all the entries that are booked during a fiscal year.

To access this report, go to General Ledger > All > Reports > Accounting entries file (FEC). Any entity with the operating country set to France can access and grant permissions for users to run the Accounting entries file report.

Select the period to run the report. You can choose to exclude opening balances from the report.

By default, the Accounting entries file report runs on the accrual book. You can select adjustment and user-defined books and run the report on those instead of or in combination with the default book.

Multinational companies operating in France can create a separate chart of accounts for their French entities and use the reporting account filter to run the Accounting entries file report. To do this, enable reporting account labels in the General Ledger configuration page. Then set up a chart of accounts rule set to map your French chart of accounts to your existing chart of accounts. See Set up an alternate chart of accounts for more information.

When you access the report at the top level, you can select the SIREN from a list that includes the SIREN for all French entities that use No Tax or a VAT tax solution. At the entity level, the SIREN auto-populates with the number provided for that entity.

Running the report produces a draft report that you can run multiple times. Select the Run final checkbox to run the final report.

To set filters to refine your report results:

1. Set the Time period of the report by selecting the Reporting period and As of date.
2. Optionally: Check the box for Substitute with reporting account labels and select a Reporting account set from the dropdown list.
3. Under Filters, select any additional or user-defined books to run the report on.
   Optionally, leave Combine reporting book with other books selected to run the report on the default Accrual book and the selected user-defined books. Deselect the checkbox to run the report only on the selected user-defined books.
4. Select the SIREN from the list. The SIREN is populated automatically for reports run at the entity level. This is a required field.
5. Select Run final report to run the final report.

You can Export the report for immediate download. For large entities, you can select Process & store to run the report offline.
