Windows Financials

Abacus function GFW: G/L, Financial Reports, Windows Financials

Description

Windows Financials is a complete replacement for the Abacus function GFS and Trial Balance. It produces financial statements including Operating Statement, Balance Sheet, and 13 column statements.

Though the financial statements in Abacus do a basic job, there are a lot of reasons to move up to Windows Financials:

  • Windows Financials statements handle all "Past Periods" and "Future Periods" (that is periods 14 through 26). The OEM financial statements can only properly handle periods 1 through 12 Windows Financials allow you to select the period range of your statements. You can select the range of periods for every statement, unlike the OEM reports which will include 2 years information (period 1 through 25) if used at the end of a "future period".
  • Windows Financials statements are presentation quality graphical print jobs - not the plain text output that was the standard for early DOS programs. You can select the fonts you wish to to use in the statements, and even include your company logo in the report headers.
  • You can choose to show decimal cents in the Windows Financials statements, unlike the OEM statements which only allow dollar rounding.
  • You can choose to show details of sub-accounts rather than have such accounts rolled up to their master account
  • Windows Financials allow for a graph of the statement to be included on the final page
  • All Windows Financials statements can be output to specially prepared and configured Excel spreadsheets.
  • Depending on your version of Abacus, the Abacus department consolidation statements simply don't work - ours do.
