Import a Trial Balance in an Interim Engagement
-
Select your interim reporting engagements on the Engagement List page.
-
Click on the navigation bar and select Trial Balance.
-
Click Import TB from the toolpane on the right to display the Import trial balance page.
-
Using the drop down menu (pictured below), select the period whose trial balance you’d ike to import. This is the "active period", and this selection will be maintained as you navigate throughout the engagement unless you change it.
-
Click the "Microsoft® Excel®" import button to import your trial balance.
Note: Interim engagements currently only support importing trial balance data in Microsoft Excel formats.
-
Upon successful import, you will be navigated to the Trial Balance page for the period that has been just imported. Any periods which have been imported into your engagement will be denoted with a green checkmark in the period drop down menu (pictured below).
-
To import further periods, use the period drop down on the Trial Balance page to navigate to the period which you’d like to import (pictured below).
-
In an interim engagement, a single chart of accounts is used. Any accounts imported in one period and assigned characteristics, such as classifications, groups, and subgroups, will retain these characteristics across all periods. However, account balances are unique to each period.
