Report Settings Dialog
This dialog enables you to amend the presentation of the report. It is available by clicking the Report Settings link on the Summary tab.
In addition to the on-screen advice, you should note the following:
- Presentation Tab
- Page Footer Tab
Rounding - enables you to specify how accurate your figures need to be. For example, you may only need to report figures to the nearest million, this is a rounding of '1,000,000'.
Ensure you always enter the rounded amount. For example, if the actual amount is '1150' and rounding is set to '1000' you must enter '1000'. Amounts should always be rounded up. For example, using the same '1150' example and rounding is set to '100' you must enter '1200'.
Rounding is always performed on the pre-scaled value to ensure accuracy of calculations.
After rounding, any balancing figure is automatically posted to the P&L suspense account by default. Change the default account via the Select Rounding Account dialog as follows:
• For the current year, via the Journals tab.
• For prior years entered as comparative data.
Scaling - enables you to specify how many digits to display for your figures. For example, you may only want to display figures in thousands, this is a scaling of '1,000'. A figure of '12,345,678' can be displayed as '12' by specifying a rounding of '1,000,000' and a scaling of '1,000,000'.
You should normally apply the same scaling and rounding.
Rounding and scaling are only applied to computational parts of the report. Use the Edit Style dialog to apply rounding to user-defined tables.
Each section applies the rounding and scaling to the related Director report, Primary statement, Statutory note and Non-statutory note sections in the report.
Number of signatures across page - Select to present 1, 2 or 3 signatures across the page / on the same row.
Selecting '1' will present the signatures as the 'portrait' option would have previously, and by selecting '3' this is similar to the 'landscape' option.
Income Statement format - Select a method of presenting expenses by either Function (format 1) or Nature (format 2).
Present Statement of Changes in Equity: Ticked Yes by default. Select No if you do not require the SOCIE to be included.
If the SOCIE is selected it allows for an iXBRL tagging warning to be included in the report if the current period opening and prior period closing values differ. This warning will be hidden if the SOCIE is excluded.
Show "continued" on page/note headings - Select Yes to show the word "continued" on a report page/note heading.
Page Footer Settings - enables you to specify what is displayed in the page footer throughout the report. If selecting the ‘Other’ option, you will need complete the appropriate field under the ‘Other’ column to include your custom text.
Primary Statements Additional Footer Text – allows you to amend the alignment of this text in the footer used in the Primary Statements.
Non-Statutory Additional Footer Text - allows you to amend the alignment of this text in the footer used in the Non-Statutory pages.
