How do I clear my Exception Report in respect of Cash Flow Statement differences?
Resolution
When an Annual Report is run for the first time, if it is to include a Cash Flow Statement, in most instances an Exception Report will be produced.
The Exception Report may state that differences are found between the Trial Balance and Data screens in respect of the following:
Other Debtors
Prepayments
Other Creditors
Accruals
These differences will occur as it is required that the balances of each be entered within the data screens but at this point in time no figures have been entered or they do not match the amounts posted in the trial balance.
Simply print and read the Exception Report and enter the appropriate figures into Edit | Data Screens | Cash Flow Statement | Analysis of Debtors/Creditors accordingly (each screen has 2 columns, make sure the correct figures on the exception report is transposed into the correct column in the data screens).
Note: It is advised that in most cases simply enter the total shown on the exception report into the ‘Cash flow headings – Operating activities’ field within each screen/column mentioned above.
