All transaction originating in the other modules flow automatically to the General Ledger. The system produces a complete line of financial reporting from Trial Balance, Balance Sheet, Statements or Income and Expense, and many specialized reports that support these main reports. These same reports that are produced for the agency as a whole are also produced for every grant and contract and you can combine similar grants and contracts into groups to produce the same reports for those groups for analysis purposes.
An optional feature allows you to have a snapshot of your General Ledger on a daily basis by requesting the system to do a full update each night and list the major control accounts each morning. Since all expense originates in either payroll and accounts payable, the only other input needed for a closing is to make any journal entries that may become necessary. Once you do this, your period is closed. You may re-open prior periods and re-run prior months and the system will re-run the appointed period and then all intervening periods to give you your up to date General Ledger.
