Enhancements for the Accounting entries file (FEC) report

In response to your feedback, we adjusted the FEC report so that supplier and customer IDs only display for offset account entries.

Details

When you generate a FEC report, column 7 (CompAuxNum) and column 8 (CompAuxLib) display supplier or customer dimension information only for offset account entries.

The FEC report allows for the display of only one dimension, either Supplier, Customer, or Employee. When you create a direct General Ledger entry, you can enter information for all three of these dimensions. In these cases, Intacct cannot determine which dimension to display in the FEC report. To get past this limitation, you can edit your General Ledger account to set a General Ledger account alternative. This defines which dimension to display in the FEC report for columns 7 and 8.

How it works

To define which dimension to display for offset account entries in the FEC report, set a GL account alternative.

  1. At the top level, go to General Ledger > All > General Ledger accounts.

  2. Select Add to create a new account, or select Edit for an existing account.

  3. In the GL account alternative field, select Payables account or Receivables account.

    If you select Payables account, the supplier dimension is displayed in the FEC report for entries using this account.

    If you select Receivables account, the customer dimension is displayed in the FEC report for entries using this account.

Improved reporting results

In addition to enhancing the functionality, we improved the output for a more accurate report. In column 17 (Montantdevise), credit transactions in foreign currencies show as a negative amount.
