Financial Management in SAP Business One 10.0
With enhancements that improve departmental business processes, Version 10 increases transparency and ease of use in one of the most essential modules — Financials.
Drill-Down in Financial Reports
Golden arrows have been added next to account codes in financial reports. Users can now drill down from the Chart of Accounts directly to the account record.
The golden arrow enhancement is also available in the Trial Balance, Temporary Trial Balance, and Profit and Loss Statement. This provides direct access to account balances, improving both usability and transparency.
Accounting Periods
A new checkbox added to the Accounting Periods window allows users to define a default “End Date” when creating a new accounting period. Filtering, sorting, and free-text search options have also been introduced in this area, making it easier and faster to create financial periods.
Journal Entries
The Journal Entry “Remarks” field has been expanded to support up to 254 characters. This enhancement allows for more detailed data entry related to journal records. The 254-character upgrade has been designed to align with the “Remarks” field size in marketing documents and the corresponding form fields that reference it.
