Date Range Control


System Maintenance Menu -> Configure System Settings -> Accounting Tab -> General Ledger -> Date Range Control

Texada SRM is date sensitive, meaning that the date selected for the entry will be the date posted.
All entries are automatically indexed by date selected, and need not reflect when the entry was made or when the posting report was actually run.
This table provides the ability to control the dates that select Operators can assign to a document or transaction to ensure date errors do not occur.

The date sensitivity of the system has both pros and cons. If an entry MUST be made into a prior period it can be accomplished easily. However, if a month or year has been balanced and closed, this Date Control feature provides the ability to prevent staff from accidentally posting into "closed" periods.

The date range can be maintained in the Date Range Control window in the "General Ledger" parameters on the Accounting tab of the Configure System Settings.
An operator must be assigned a Security Role that allows permission to the Accounting - Date Range Control in order to access this table.

To activate the date range checking:

  1. In Operators Codes the Date Range Override box is unchecked for each staff member.
    The Date Range Override box can be checked for the primary accounting manager or administrator when that operator needs to be allowed to enter dates outside of the current range.

    Note: The Date Range Override permission is only a temporary condition to allow that operator to make transaction corrections on dates outside of the current period.
    When date range over-ride has been set for an operator, at next login to SRM the 'Date Range Override' is automatically disabled again and a warning is displayed.

  2. Click the SET DATES button to initially set the date ranges to the include only the current month or period, as outlined in Set Dates.

  3. Then adjust date ranges for specific modules to a wider date range as your business practices require.
    e.g. RSQH - RENTAL SYSTEM QUOTES and RSRH - RESERVATIONS may be more suited to a 6 month, a year, or a two year date range window.

  4. Specific modules can also be flagged to roll-over by one day automatically every day.
    Any modules that are not set to roll-over daily, can all be rolled-over at the same time manually by 1 month at month end by clicking on the ROLLOVER button as outlined in Month End Date Range Roll-Over.

DESCRIPTION
The general description of the module displays.

FROM DATE
Some modules need to be set to allow a wider date range than the current month or period, while other daily programs need to be more restrictive.
This field can be used to manually adjust the beginning date of the allowable range for specific modules.

TO DATE
This field can be used to manually adjust the ending date of the allowable range for specific modules.

AUTO
The option is also provided to automatically roll-over specified modules by 1 day on a daily basis.

Check this box to activate daily roll-over for relevant modules.
This processing is executed by the Background Tasks Processing.

Uncheck this box if the module should not be rolled-over daily, and should only be rolled-over when the ROLLOVER process is initiated as outlined in Month End Date Roll-Over.


LAST AUTO DATE
This date reflects the last date the Auto Roll-Over was executed.
It is maintained by the software, but can be used to allow the Background Task process to "catchup" if BKTX has failed on a day.
