The Application - GL Outage Report will show account outages between GL accounts and the application balances which were captured at the end of the month.
The system is able to compare the total of all the detail items assigned to a specific general ledger account to the account's general ledger balance. Typically, the amount should be the same. If the amount in the general ledger at month end does not equal the total of the application items assigned to the account, we say that there is a GL-Application Outage.
Outages can occur for several reasons:
| 1. | The host month end files are for a different month than the GL file. |
| 2. | The copy and process was done before your final adjusting GL entries were made. |
| 3. | Items in the Misc. Data Entry were not updated. |
| 4. | Coding of items in the host system. |
| 5. | Deposit accounts overdrawn. |
All outages should be researched carefully to determine why the accounts are out of balance. Results for Advanced EVE can be affected by outages, as outages are valued at book value. Results for Advanced Income Shock may be affected also, depending on the reason for the outage. Because the amount of outages in demand deposits should equal the amount of the gl overdraft account, the total of deposit demand account outages is displayed so the user can easily determine compare and justify the reason for the deposit outage.
An example of the report is shown below:
Each account with associated item detail in the model will be listed if there is a difference between the GL balance for the account and the items assigned to that account. This report may be one that you put into a report group to print and/or review monthly.
