Group specification of accounts

This help covers the group specification of accounts in Netvisor. You can open the group specification of accounts by selecting Financial management > Groups > select the desired group > Edit.





Proceed as follows:

  • Select the desired group as active, after which the company is changed to the elimination company of the group in question.

  • Press the Edit button.

  • Select Group specification of accounts.





The group specification of accounts:

  • is used only in the group Controller reports

  • is by default fetched from the limited company specification of accounts

  • can be edited later

  • enables the formation of the group’s own key figures on the Controller section

  • does not affect the company’s actual specification of accounts found on the accounting side.

Proceed as follows when you edit the group specification of accounts:

  • Make sure that you make corresponding changes also to the specification of accounts of the elimination company.

  • If you make elimination entries to an account that is not found in the elimination company’s specification of accounts, add that account to the company’s specification of accounts in accounting.

Specification of accounts functions





Use the specification of accounts functions as follows:

  • Copy the specification of accounts of the desired company as the specification of accounts of the elimination company.

  • If necessary, restore the limited company specification of accounts by pressing the “Restore default specification of accounts” link.

  • Note that if you have made changes to the Controller key figures for the group, you will most likely have to correct these manually.
