FA.EXE - Fixed Assets

Allow Re-Calc All

The default is set at 'False' and this means that when you select the 'Re-calc' button on the Depreciation tab the program will only recalculate amounts for the current asset. If you set this option to 'True', then upon selecting the 'Re-calc' button you will be prompted with a message allowing you to re-calculate for only the current asset or for all assets (in the current filter).

Both C & U Deprec.

When it stands at the default of 'TRUE' you will calculate both Canadian and US types of depreciation. Change the setting to 'FALSE' and your programs will reflect your default settings depending on your currency settings. For example, if all of your currency settings are in Canadian funds, then your depreciation calculations will be too. And vice-versa, if all of your settings are in US funds, then your depreciation settings will reflect those relevant to US depreciation accounting principles.

In Set-up Mode

This option, when set to 'True', allows you to work in the Fixed Assets program’s 'Setup Mode', which can by used to synchronize your settings to reflect your current Fixed Asset postings. Setup mode is intended for initially synching the depreciation / NBV balances with what has already been posted to your General Ledger prior to using TruckMate’s Fixed Assets program.

When you are in Setup Mode in the Fixed Assets program, select the 'Re-Calc' button (shown on the Depreciation Tab) to bring forward all posted information. You can then change the dollar amounts in the 'Current' column in the Depreciation Tab (either in monthly or annual view). You can also double-click any period to indicate that all periods up to that one have been posted (that period end will appear in the 'Posted To' field on bottom left of the tab). This allows your users to synchronize the Fixed Assets program with any prior GL postings that have been done.

Then, you can set the configuration option to 'False' and you would no longer be able to (manually) alter posted figures nor change the 'posted up to' (other than via the 'Post' button).

Note: Before you start generating postings from Fixed Assets, this config option should be turned off (set to 'False'). You may need to occasionally go back into Setup Mode to fix up some figures (if they already did manual correction to books via the GL Journal Entries program and want figures to match), but this should be rare, and if this has to be done, the User should immediately turn Setup Mode back off before posting from Fixed Assets.

Subtotal GLTRANS Postings

If set to True (the default), then when GLTRANS records are created, all the GL transactions in the audit/register run are grouped/summed together by GL account and date (one lump figure per combination). If set to False, then the figures are grouped/lumped by GL account, date, and source transaction ID.

User Field 1 - 10

In the FA program, you can access ten free format fields by using the <CTRL> - <U> key combination. You can change the field labels for those fields here. In the Value field, enter the field label you wish to appear on the User Defined Fields form in the FA program.

User Value

User value is the label for the last/4th $ field on the bottom right of 'acquisition' tab. All 4 of these fields are for information only (not used in calculating depreciation). Residual, estimated, selling, and market values are carried forward from the power unit, trailer, and miscellaneous equipment profiles. However, the 'net book' amount has not been brought forward because it is a calculated field in this program. In its place is a numeric user defined field.

GFS.EXE - GL Financial Statement Designer

Auto-Fix GL Accts in Details

When a report company ID is changed, this option will automatically change company segment of GL accounts in details, if set to True. (Default is set to Ask.)

GJE.EXE - GL Journal Entries

Allow Prior Period Posting

This option will to allow prior period GL entries in the GL Journal Entries program. If the option is set to 'True', and the 'Allow Prior Period Posting' is not checked in the fiscal year, journal entries dated prior to the closed period will be allowed in the GL Journal Entries program.

If the option is set at 'False' (default) or 'Allow Prior Period Posting' is checked in the fiscal year, you will not be allowed to post entries for prior years.

Update Mem Trans

This setting, when set to 'True', will tell the GL Journal Entries program to update the Memorized Batch to use the latest 'Recall' Batch as the new Memorized Batch. Default is set at 'False'.

GJU.EXE - GL Journal Entries Register

yellowbox

Allow Inactive GL

This config option can enable error-checking for inactive GL accounts by any of the TruckMate 'register' applications. By default, this option is set to 'True', meaning that the register will behave as in past versions of TruckMate (i.e. no error-checking is done on the GL Accounts that have transactions processed against them).

If this value is changed to 'False' or 'Warn', then when a user clicks the 'Print Report' button, if any of the GL Accounts selected for the report are inactive, a pop-up warning will display, listing the inactive accounts. The reports will still print and the user can check the 2nd (GL) report to see which transactions contain the inactive GL Accounts. When the user clicks the 'Post' button, however, some functionality will be disabled (depending on if 'False' or 'Warn' is chosen):

  • If 'False', you will get an error message and you will not be able to post. (The error message will suggest possible solutions to allow posting).

  • If 'Warn', you will be asked whether you wish to post anyway (you may click 'No' to abort the post).

Note: This config option has no effect on a Reprint, as there is no point in error-checking transactions that have already been posted.

Auto-Post Registers

When set to 'True', this option will skip the 2nd posting of Register data, eliminating the need to use the GJU.EXE program. Default is set at 'False'.

Default Year/Period

Sets the value of the 'Year/Period' selection field. Available values are: False; O=1st Open; T=1st Trans; C=Current; L=Last. Default is set at 'False'.
