Prepare Budget Reports

To prepare Budget Master File reports, perform the following procedures.  The Budget Comparison, Budget Worksheet and Budget Master Listing Reports can be printed.

Select Report Selection Screen

1.   Enter the Budget Master Reports master file reporting option on the GLMENU to display the Budget Report Request Screen (GL830S01).

Select Reports

2.   Enter the budget year and sequence for which budget reports will be printed.  If reports will be printed for a specific location and a specific range of account numbers, enter the company, location and range fields.  Identify whether to print master records in account or center number sequence and whether to list financial, statistical, or both types of records.

Note that these report parameters apply to all reports requested.  If individual reports require different parameters, you must make separate report requests.

Enter how many copies to print of each report, and specify any report-specific parameters.

The submit code determines when the Budget Master File reports are printed.  When you set the submit code to Y and press the Enter key, a job is submitted to perform the print processing.  The message "Report request submitted" is displayed and the request screen is redisplayed.  The print job is held for later processing.  (See the Releasing Submitted Jobs topic for more information on job scheduling.)

When you set the submit code to N and press the Enter key, print processing is performed interactively.  As reports are processed the message "Report (report number) print in progress" is displayed.  The message "Print request completed" is displayed when all print processing is completed.

When a large number of reports are processed interactively, the terminal from which the print request is entered may not be available for an extended period of time.  Also, interactive computer resources may be unduly taxed by this processing.  When all report requests have been processed, end the session.  (See step 4, End Session.)

Cancel Request

3.   To cancel the print request before you submit the job, press the Exit key (F3).  Displayed Budget Master File report requests and parameters are not processed, and the GLMENU is redisplayed.

End Session

4.   To end the conversation and redisplay the GLMENU, press the Exit key (F3).
