Uusi vuosi Marathonissa - Uusi rajapinta

Tämän ohjeen ensimmäisessä osassa kerromme, miten uusi tilivuosi avataan Marathonissa. Toiseen osaan olemme koonneet muutamia tavallisia kysymyksiä, joita vuoden vaihtamisen yhteydessä saamme.

Uuden vuoden avaaminen

On kolme asiaa, jotka on tehtävä uuden vuoden avaamisen yhteydessä:

• Perustaa uusi tilivuosi
• Uusi taulukko ei-pankkipäiville ja
• Uusi kalenteri aikaraportointiin

Uusi tilivuosi Marathonissa

Uusi vuosi avataan ohjelmassa Taloushallinto/Backoffice/TIlivuosi ja kaudet.

1. Klikkaa painiketta Uusi ja tarkista, että ehdotetut alku- ja loppukaudet täsmäävät. Loppukauden voi muuttaa, esimerkiksi tilikauden pidentämisen yhteydessä.

" Valitse, jos haluat automaattisen edellisen vuoden alkusaldon päivityksen kohdassa ”Päivitä alkusaldo aina kun edelliselle vuodelle tulee tapahtuma”. Suosittelemme, että tämä ruutu on aina rastitettu.

1. Tallenna

Kun uusi vuosi tallennetaan, alkusaldojen lisäksi siihen siirtyy myös jaksotukset, tilikartta, kustannuspaikat, tulosyksiköt, dimensiot, automaattitiliöinnit, automaattijaot, kustannusarviopohjat, raporttimallit, tositemallit, tiliöintimallit, alv-luokat sekä tositesarjat. Mahdolliset siirtovirheet näkyvät virhelistalla, mutta pelkkinä varoituksina.

Puuttuvat tilit, kustannuspaikat ja tulosyksiköt avataan automaattisesti uudessa vuodessa. Jos tileille, joilla ei pitäisi olla yhteys kustannuspaikkoihin tai tulosyksikköihin, kuitenkin on kertynyt loppusaldoa ko. yhdistelmällä, ne poistetaan tililtä. Mahdollinen loppusaldo tileillä, joilla pitäisi olla yhteys kustannuspaikkaan tai tulosyksikköön, mutta ei ole, siirtyy uuteen vuoteen ilman yhteyttä.

Esimerkki varoituksesta vuoden vaihdon yhteydessä:

Tässä tapauksessa saldo tilitä 1220 siirtyy uuteen vuoteen, mutta ilman yhteyttä kustannuspaikkaan.

Korjauksen jälkeen voit tehdä uuden siirron. Se tehdään ohjelmassa Taloushallinto/Backoffice/Tilivuosi ja kaudet toiminnolla Päivitä alkusaldot.

Pankkipäivät

Update bank holidays for the new year and the following year in Accounting/Backoffice /Base registers/Purchase Ledger/Bank free days. This enables the automatic payments to function. If Company for global table of bank free days is filled out in Accounting/Backoffice /Base registers/Purchase Ledger/Parameters tab Misc., the bank free days must be updated in that company.

1. Select NEW, write year, and press OK
2. The country’s standard holidays are fetched, check them and make possible changes.
3. Save

Calendar

Create calendars for different working time measures in Project/Backoffice/Base registers/Calendar.

1. Click New and write in the year, same calendar number as before and name (if not, you must do the change in the employees' records in Project/Backoffice/Base registers/Employees). Example: If your full-time calendar number this year is 1, it has to be number 1 also the next year.
2. Write in amount of expected working hours per day in the field Time/day.
3. In the tab Working Days, you can click Import standard to import a standard calendar. Fill in which days that are working days and which are not. A working day is expressed as a digit with two decimals. A complete working day is 1,00, half day is 0,50 and a free day is 0,00. This enables different calendars for different working time measures.
4. You can copy working days from a calendar to another, as long as it is in the same year. Remember to change hours per day and the name after copying.
5. Save

Frequent questions

» What does the alternative ”Update OB at new transactions in previous years” mean?

If the box is checked, the same parameter will be checked in Accounting/Backoffice/ Base registers/General Ledger/Parameters, open the year and go to tab Registration.

Activating the parameter means that the OB will be updated automatically when a new transaction is registered in the previous year. Thus, you don't need to update OB manually when working in two accounting years concurrently.

Please note that the automatic update only concerns OB and periodical allocations (accruals). Other changes in the previous years such as accounts, cost centres and -objects, etc. shall be updated manually with the function Update OB, which is located in Accounting/Backoffice/Accounting year and periods, select year and click on Update OB. If you activate automatic update after you've already registered transaction in the previous year, these records must be updated manually with the Update OB -function.

If you choose not to check the box “Update OB at new transactions in previous year” and thus not the parameter either, you will have to update opening balances manually when working concurrently in two accounting years. The function is found in Accounting/Backoffice/Accounting year and periods, select year and click on Update OB. Check the records you wish to update and click on Start. If there is a global company, where these records exist, it is mentioned in parenthesis. Change company under the cog wheel and make the update there instead.

» I activated the parameter “Update OB at new transactions in previous years”, but when I register accounts in the previous year, I cannot see them in the new year?

The automatic update only concerns OB and periodical allocations (accruals). Other changes in the previous years such as accounts, cost centres and -objects, etc. shall be updated manually with the function Update OB, which is located in Accounting /Backoffice/Accounting year and periods.

» I didn't activate ”Update OB at transactions in previous year” when I created new accounting year. Can I undo that?

Yes, you can check the parameter in Accounting/Backoffice/Base registers/General Ledger/Parameters, open the year and go to tab Registration. Note, that if you activate automatic update after you've already registered transaction in the previous year, these records must be updated manually with the Update OB -function.

» I receive a message ”Could not save: Open a new year first in the company with global chart of accounts/Open a new year first in company for global report generator” when I try to save my new accounting year?

A company can be connected with another company's chart of accounts and report generator. If that is the case, you will have to open the new accounting year in that company first, and Marathon will show a warning if you are trying to save other companies before it. Change company under the cog wheel and create a new year in the global company for chart of accounts and report generator (in this case company CM01).  

» I receive a message ”Could not save: Account for previous year's profit/loss missing in the parameters”?

Account for previous year's profit/loss mut be set in Accounting/Backoffice/Base registers/General Ledger/Parameters, open the year and go to tab Other to enter it there.

» I receive a message ”Could not save: Account for previous year's profit/loss missing in the chart of accounts”?
