T24 Reporting Introduction

In Financial Accounting course, you have learnt how various types of accounting entries
are generated and how they are consolidated into CAL and CPL records.
You will, in this course, learn about the different tools and techniques used for
generating reports using the data available in CAL and CPL records.

T24 Reporting Introduction

In T24, a report is built like a traditional house.

To build a house, first we build a strong foundation, upon which we build the Columns,
then the Roof and finally the Walls. Of course, we build the house depending upon the
requirements and specifications.
Extending this analogy, for a T24 financial report, the foundation or the primary source
of information is the CRF (Central Reporting File), which as you know comprises the two
consolidation tables CAL and CPL (CONSOLIDATE.ASST.LIAB and
CONSOLIDATE.PRFT.LOSS).
A T24 financial report is like any other report, a two dimensional array of columns and
rows. In T24, we refer to the rows as lines. Similar to building a house, to design a T24
financial report, you have to first design its Columns and Lines. The Columns are the type
of information to be reported across a report column. In T24, once you design a column,
you can use it across any report. It could represent an opening balance, a closing
balance, total credit transactions, total, etc.
Finally, the Lines decide which information is reported in a row. For example, in the first
row, you may decide to report deposits and in the second row the loans.

You will now see some of the financial reports generated in T24 to learn their important
design components. Various types of reports can be produced from T24 Central
Reporting File (CRF) balances. The screenshot shows the specimen of a report
produced.
This report shows the Closing Balances under different groupings like Cash, Due from
Banks, etc. Above the Line 0030 CASH, you can see individual CAL keys listed with
balances. Such a report which reports CAL keys and information from them, are known
as CRF reports.
If you further analyse the report, you can see that it has three Columns and multiple
Lines. The first column holds sequence Nos. and the second column is the description
of Lines. You can see that they do not hold any financial information, and thus we will
refer to them as “Descriptive Columns”. While the third one, which reports financial
amounts will be referred to as a “Financial Column”.
If you look at the first and second Lines, there is no amount under the financial column,
and we will refer to such Lines as “Heading” Lines. You can see that in the Line 0030
Cash Balance, there is an amount, and we will refer to it as a “Detail” Line. Finally, you
can see that in the TOTAL CASH Line, though there is a financial amount, no keys are
listed above that. Why? Because, it is not reported from CAL keys, but a calculated total
is printed here. We will refer to such Lines as “Total” Lines.
To recap, CRF reports contain amounts only from CRF i.e. CAL and CPL tables. A report
comprises of some descriptive and some financial columns. Similarly some Lines are
just Headings, some report financial amounts and some just report totals.

T24 Reporting Introduction

If you compare this report, with the previous one, you can see that this report gives the
details of individual cash account balances under the row Cash Balance. For instance,
details like Customer, Account Number, Interest rate, Interest Day basis, Value date etc.
which are fetched from T24 Balance files/Applications like Accounts and Contracts.
Such a report, which gives the balances of individual accounts and contracts under a
consolidation key, is referred to as a CRB report.
CRB reports are also based on the CRF base i.e. CAL and CPL tables, and in addition they
report the balances of underlying contracts and accounts.

 The screenshot shows a CRD (Difference) report containing the balances of underlying
contracts and accounts.
The report lists the difference, if any, between consolidation records’ balances and
balances of underlying contracts and accounts.

Combined CRF reports can be produced for a group of Companies. The reports are
known as CRC reports, and the Report Id will be pre-fixed with CRC.
This functionality is available for both Multi-Company and Multi-Book environments.
Combined reports can be produced online by verifying the RE.CONSOL.REQUEST
application record or by attaching such records in the Batch: EB.CONSOL.PRINT.
