This option is available only in Balance Sheet definitions. If G/L transactions such as transfer of income and expense accounts into balance accounts or offset transactions are not completed within the Balance Sheet period, or if the defined lines in the Active and Passive sections are incomplete or inaccurate, there will be a difference between the Active and Passive accounts when the report is completed. The Profit/Loss definition is used to display this difference on table lines. The profit/loss line is always independent from groups. Which means, it is not the sub-line of a group.
The amount displayed next to the profit/loss line of the table report is calculated as follows,
PROFIT/LOSS = General Total of Actives lines - General Total of Passives lines.
The calculated amount is displayed on the Profit/Loss line of the table with a plus or minus sign.
The Profit/Loss line is located in the Passives section of the balance sheet as a rule. However, since this is an obvious information, the application does not apply any limits.
Definition Code: The record code of the profit/loss description line.
Profit Description: This description is displayed on the Profit/Loss line if the result of the Active total - Passive total operation is positive.
Loss Description: This description is displayed on the Profit/Loss line if the result of the Active total - Passive total operation is negative.
