6 Configuration Accounts There are several set up stages that are required to be undertaken before the Accounting System can be activated. It is essential that these stages are addressed in the correct order; otherwise the system may not work correctly. This stage covers the configuration relating to Accounting Modules. The configuration must be properly setup prior to commencement of the edienterprise accounting operation. Page 10 of 65 Accounts Setups How To Guide 1 June 2004

6.1 How to Define the General Ledger Account Before you proceed to setup the General Ledger Account for the system, it is important to understand how the General Ledger is being designed. 6.1.1 How to Design the General Ledger This General Ledger is designed for Businesses with Single Company, Single Branch or Multiple Companies, Multiple Branches. You can also start with Single Company, Single Branch and subsequently upgrade to Multiple Companies, Multiple Branches as the Organisation grows. The General Ledger numbering structure is defined as follows: 1. There are a combination of numbers and group separators (denoted by a dot) of up to 10 characters to form the Account number. You can create main groups and sub groups by inserting a group separator after at least one number. For example, 7600.10.10 7600.10.10 Final account Toyota Camry - Cost 7600.10.00 Sub group Toyota Camry AXZ1025 7600.00.00 Main group Motor Vehicle Value store in 7600.10.10 can be aggregated and displayed under sub group account 7600.10.00. For example: Instead of showing individually: 7600.00.00 Motor Vehicle BSH 7600.10.00 Toyota Camry AXZ1025 BSH 7600.10.10 Toyota Camry - Cost BSH 30,000.00 7600.10.50 Accumulated Depreciation BSH (5,000.00) 7600.20.00 BMW Z10 BSH 7600.20.10 BMW Z10 Cost BSH 90,000.00 7600.20.50 Accumulated Depreciation BSH (15,000.00) Value of Final Account can be aggregated and displayed under the sub group: 7600.00.00 Motor Vehicle BSH 7600.10.00 Toyota Camry AXZ1025 BSH 25,000.00 7600.20.00 BMW Z10 BSH 75,000.00 Alternatively, the value can be aggregated and displayed under the main group: 7600.00.00 Motor Vehicle BSH 100,000.00 Page 11 of 65 Accounts Setups How To Guide 1 June 2004

By default the system is defaulted to GL Account Number format of 9999.99.99 with first 4 numbers forming the Main Group or Core followed by 2 Suffix of 2 numbers. E.g. 1010.00.00 The suffix is used to allow a different form of reporting based on all the suffixes rolled up into the sub group or main group (or 000) account as illustrated earlier in the above example. Note: This is one of the ways that you can setup the General Ledger to generate the report. Value should not be posted to the main or sub group allowing the system to sum up the value of the final account to the group account. 2. The Branches and Departments are appended to the data records during the creation of Receivable transactions as well as the entry of Payable transactions. These designators then control where the General Ledger data is stored and eventually how the data is reported. During reporting, Departmental, Branch or Company reports can be generated through filtering on the required Companies, Branches or Departments. As such, there is no requirement to create multiple revenue accounts for each of the Companies, Branches or Departments. 3. The system uses a Total Level adding routine. This is different from the group separator concept. The Total Levels are used to group a range of Profit & Loss, Balance Sheet and Alternate Account type Accounts to produce a General Ledger report. Base on the current Total Level, the system will add up BSH, P&L and ALT account values until it hits another Total Level that is greater than or equal to it s value or right to the first GL Account ie. 10.00.000. The larger the total level, the more Accounts it will add up. TTL = BSH + P&L + ALT Page 12 of 65 Accounts Setups How To Guide 1 June 2004

For example, (abstract of a Balance Sheet) 5900.00.00 Shareholder Equity TTL-18 250,000.00 ========= 5900.10.00 Represented by; HDR 6000.00.00 Current Asset HDR 6100.00.00 Cash in Hand BSH 5,000.00 6200.00.00 Cash at Bank BSH 150,000.00 6300.00.00 Trade Debtor BSH 255,000.00 6400.00.00 Other Debtor BSH 15,000.00 6500.00.00 Provisions BSH 45,000.00 --------------- 6900.00.00 Total Current Asset TTL-10 470,000.00 ======== 7000.00.00 Fixed Asset HDR 7100.00.00 Motor Vehicle BSH 100,000.00 7200.00.00 Office Equipment BSH 20,000.00 --------------- 7800.00.00 Total Fixed Asset TTL- 10 120,000.00 ======== 7900.00.00 Total Asset TTL 12 590,000.00 ======== 7900.10.00 Less: Liabilities HDR 8000.00.00 Current Liabilities HDR 8200.00.00 Cash at Bank (O/D) BSH 25,000.00 8300.00.00 Trade Creditor BSH 220,000.00 8400.00.00 Other Creditor BSH 15,000.00 --------------- 8900.00.00 Total Current Liabilities TTL 10 260,000.00 ======== 9000.00.00 Long-Term Liabilities HDR 9100.00.00 Loan from HQ BSH 80,000.00 --------------- 9700.00.00 Total Long-Term Liabilities TTL-10 80,000.00 ======== 9800.00.00 Total Liabilities TTL 12 340,000.00 ======== 9900.00.00 Net Asset and Liabilities TTL 18 250,000.00 Page 13 of 65 Accounts Setups How To Guide 1 June 2004

4. The Consolidation function is another way to aggregate value. It is not included in the summation of the Total through the Total Level method. It differs from Total Level Method which adds up prior GL Account figures in sequential order. Consolidation has the ability to consolidate GL Account figures in random order. For example (abstract of a Profit and Loss) Consolidate to 1010.10.00 Freight Revenue P&L 1010.10.10 Freight Revenue P&L 2900.10.00 250,000.00 1010.10.20 Freight Cost P&L 2900.20.00 200,000.00 1020.00.00 Handling Revenue P&L 1020.10.10 Handling Revenue P&L 2900.10.00 50,000.00 1020.10.20 Handling Cost P&L 2900.20.00 45,000.00 1030.10.00 Storage Revenue P&L 1030.10.10 Storage Revenue P&L 2900.10.00 25,000.00 1030.10.20 Storage Cost P&L 2900.20.00 20,000.00 1040.10.00 Documentation Revenue P&L 1040.10.10 Documentation Revenue P&L 2900.10.00 5,000.00 1040.10.20 Documentation Cost P&L 2900.20.00 2,000.00 2900.10.00 Total Job Revenue CSL 330,000.00 2900.20.00 Total Job Cost CSL 267,000.00 --------------- 2900.30.00 Total Profit/Loss TTL-2 63,000.00 ======== 5. An Alternate Account can also be used to show negative Asset as positive Liabilities. An Asset is setup as a Debit Source and linked to an Alternate Account setup as Credit Source. During the generation of a Report, if an Asset value returns as Credit, it will be shown as a positive figure in the Alternate GL Account. For example (abstract of a Balance Sheet) Instead of showing the CITIBANK USD O/D as follows: Alternate to 6000.00.00 Current Assets HDR 6200.00.00 Cash at Bank BSH DR 8200.00.00 6200.10.00 CITIBANK LOCAL BSH DR 8200.10.00 150,000.00 6200.20.00 CITIBANK USD BSH DR 8200.20.00 (25,000.00) The report can be setup to display as follows: 6000.00.00 Current Assets HDR 6200.00.00 Cash at Bank BSH DR 8200.00.00 6200.10.00 CITIBANK LOCAL BSH DR 8200.10.00 150,000.00 8000.00.00 Current Liabilities HDR 8200.00.00 Cash at Bank ALT CR 8200.20.00 CITIBANK USD ALT CR 25,000.00 Page 14 of 65 Accounts Setups How To Guide 1 June 2004

6.1.3 How to Configure the General Ledger Account A default Chart of Accounts has been installed together with the ediaccountant, you can either modify the existing Chart or recreate your own according to your requirements. Page 16 of 65 Accounts Setups How To Guide 1 June 2004

6.1.3.1 How to Add/Edit GL Account Number Select Config -> Account -> GL Account -> New or Edit Field GL Account Debit or Credit Name Type Description Enter the General Ledger Account, including the Suffix. DR - signifies that the balance in this Account would normally be a Debit balance. CR signifies a balance that is normally a Credit. Enter a short description for the GL Account Name Enter the Charge Type or Select from the Charge Type Listing. BSH - Balance Sheet Account. P&L - Profit & Loss Account. TTL - Total, an Account that totals up P&L, BSH or ALT type accounts. HDR - Header, an Account that is a Header or Notation Account. CLN - Consolidation Account, an account to which other accounts are accumulated, but are not added into the totals. ALT - Alternate (used where this account is to be the Alternate of another BSH type account, e.g. Bank Accounts). N.B. Only P&L or BSH type can accept postings. Page 17 of 65 Accounts Setups How To Guide 1 June 2004

Control Account Percentage of Consolidate Alternate Total Level Print Sequence Notes Un-tick if the account is a standard account and Not a Control Account. Tick if the account is a Debtors/Creditors Control A/c or something similar: - Accrual/WIP Controls, Discounts W/Off, Journals Control, GST Tax Controls, GST Tax Rates Controls, Bank Accounts, Exchange Gain/Loss. These accounts MUST be set up as Control Accounts and NO Charge Codes should be linked to these Accounts (Refer to System Manual for more information on Control Accounts). Enter the GL Account of which this account is to show a Percentage of. This option can be used where it is required to show further information in addition to that shown in the P&L or Balance Sheet. For example, assume in the Chart of A/C s Customs Revenue is added to Total Revenue, and Customs Expenses is added to Total Costs. Should further information be required such as Net Customs Revenue, Customs Revenue can be added to Total Revenue, and consolidated to Customs in a separate section of the Chart of A/C s used for comparisons. Likewise, Customs Expenses will be added to Total Costs, and consolidated to an expense a/c in the comparisons section. This way, there is further information about what makes up Total Net Revenue by Revenue Types (Freight Import, Freight Export, Customs) and thus, what areas of Operation are most (and least) profitable. N.B. These figures DO NOT ADD into the figures, they are a notation only. This is used where an Account such as Bank may go into overdraft. To correctly show the account as a positive Liability instead of a negative Asset, use an ALTERNATE account. Only a Balance Sheet account can be linked to an Alternate account. The Alternate account MUST be flagged as an ALT type. N.B. The actual postings go to the main Bank A/C, not the Alternate. If the Type of Account was selected as a Total type, then this box will appear. The required Total Level should be entered here. Total Levels are required in order to add the individual accounts or other Total Accounts to produce a desired report layout. e.g. A Total Level of 2 will add all P&L, BSH or ALT type accounts prior to this Total level back to the last Level 2 or a higher Total Level. A total Level of 4 will add all P&L, BSH or ALT type accounts prior to this Total level back to the last Level 4 or a higher Total Level, and so on. If the GL report is to display this account in a different sequence to the G/L Number, enter a number between 0 & 999. Accounts with 0 (the normal numeric sequence) will print first, then 1, 2, etc up to 9. If any notes are required, enter them here. Page 18 of 65 Accounts Setups How To Guide 1 June 2004

6.1.3.2 How to Modify/Move a GL Account Number Select Config -> Account -> GL Account -> Edit When you modify the GL Account number, the details of the GL Account will be moved from one location (i.e. number) to another location. It is used when it discovered that an account is appearing in the incorrect order or location. There is no need to edit the Charge Code links to the new General Ledger account numbers, as they are updated automatically as part of the MOVE function. Note: The Modification option must not be used to move an Account from the Trading/Profit & Loss area to the Balance Sheet, or vice versa. Doing so will create data corruption in regard to holding balances for the Balance Sheet Items. The system will look at all posted transactions and change all the G/L references to the new code. Because the transactions in the A/R & A/P modules are Charge Code driven, any modification of G/L Account Number will automatically update the current month transactions. Note: Remember that there is no need to edit Charge Codes or the Control or Link Account to update the new GL Account numbers, as they are updated automatically.

Charge Type Margin (%) GST Tax Id WHT Tax Id Charge Group Sales Group Expense Group Revenue Account WIP Account Cost Account Accrual Account Rate Calculator Description Show on Quote DSB - Disbursement. Where 100% of the Revenue is to be accrued no Profit. MRG - Margin. REV - Revenue. Where there are NO Costs PURE REVENUE. OVR - Overhead. Where there is NO Revenue - PURE OVERHEADS NON (Non-Offset) Non-accruing. Where both Revenue and/or Costs may be entered, but only the SALES side will generate Accruals or WIP. If the charge Code Type is set to MRG then the Trigger can be set to any required percentage. Where a cost is expected when a revenue is charged, set the relevant percentage in reference to the revenue. Eg. If a cost estimated at 80% of the Revenue, set the margin (%) to 80%. Where a cost is not expected when a revenue is charged or vice versa, set the margin (%) to 0%. If the Charge Code is DSB, it will be preset to 100% and cannot be changed. The default is 100%. If the Current Company is GST Registered, this field will be able to be filled in, otherwise it will be disabled. If GST is applicable for the current Code, select the default GST Id from the lookup or enter the GST Id. If this Charge Code is not GST applicable and is not to be part of the GST Return Report, leave Blank. In Australia answer Y if the data is to be reported on the BAS return. In other countries, Y to be included in the respective GST/TAX returns. The Rates are maintained in Config -> Account -> GST Tax Id. If the Current Company is WHT Registered, this field will be able to be filled in, otherwise it will be disabled. If WHT is applicable for the current Code, select the default WHT Id from the lookup or enter the WHT Id. If this Charge Code is not WHT applicable leave Blank. The Rates are maintained in Config -> Account -> WHT Tax Id. If Reports by particular Charge Group Codes are required, attach the Charge Code to that Charge Group. If Reports by particular Sales Groups are required, attach the Charge Code to that Sales Group. If Reports by particular Expense Groups are required, attach the Charge Code to that Expense Group..

Tick this option if you want the rate calculator to print on Quote to Client. Page 28 of 65 Accounts Setups How To Guide 1 June 2004

With the use of codes, operation staff need not memorize the GL Account Number or anything about the General Ledger or what each GL Account is used for, as this has already been established by the creation of Charge Codes. The users only have to select the appropriate Charge Code for their invoicing or costing needs which can be a short code of the full charge description. For example, FRT can be a short code for Freight Charges. The General Ledger structure must exist prior to creation of any Charge Codes. If a New Charge Code is required for a non-existing GL Account, that GL Account must be created in the GL Chart of Accounts first. These Codes perform three vital functions, namely: - They control the way the Accruals system (Accruals/WIP) works. This is done by the Charge Type. They control the billing of GST/VAT to the Client, which may or may not be over-ridden (depending on the system setting) at the time of Invoicing the Client through AR Transactions or the Job Invoicing function. Similar rules apply to the entry of AP Transactions. They are the links between charging a Sales Invoice &/or entering a Purchase Invoice and the General Ledger.
