Managing several projects
With the Segments feature, it is possible to manage different projects, obtaining balance sheets that determine the profit or the loss of each project.
Example
In an association, there are two projects that need to be managed:
- Courses
- Manifestations
On top of that, there are different branch offices with the same projects to be managed:
- Rome
- Palermo
- Florence
The user wishes to obtain a balance sheet which indicates the profit or the loss of each project and branch office.
How to proceed:
- Insert the segments at the end of the chart of accounts
- Enter the transactions, and complete the debit and the credit accounts with the segments
- From the Account1 menu, activate the "Enhanced balance sheet by groups" command
- Select the available configurations in the different tabs; in the "Sections" tab in particular, deactivate the display of the Balance sheet accounts, the Client/Suppliers accounts and the Cost centers. The segments usually refer to the accounts of the Profit & Loss statement.
- In the "Subdivision" tab, activate the "Subdivision by segment" option
- Select the segment for which the balance sheet should be obtained (by project or by branch office)
- Click on "Preview" in order to display the Balance sheet
