Cash flow reports can be generated at an account level or a sub-account level.
These extracts are not real-time and do not replace the existing accounting enquiries.
The cash flow reports produced here contain only transactions that have been posted.
Note:
The Bank Account Balance report (see below), provides a view of the current cash flow situation as at a specified date. The primary purpose of this report is to enable Administrators to ensure that there will be sufficient funds in the scheme’s bank account to cover the benefit payments authorized on any day.
A cash flow report can also be generated from the Accounting menu. This cash flow report differs in that it contains all transactions, whether or not they have been posted.

When retrieving the other leg of the Business Transactions (BT’s) in the BANK account for the Cash Flow reports, if the account for the other leg of the BT is BANK ALLOC then the system will retrieve the BT’s for which the Debit or Credit account is BANK ALLOC and the account for the other leg of the BT is not BANK, to determine the Accounting Activity or Account to include in the Cash Flow report in the same way as the BT’s are retrieved for the DEPOSITALLOC and PAYMENTALLOC accounts. The Sub-Umbrella Scheme Code will be displayed on the report.
If the Pooling Status of the Scheme selected is Sub-Umbrella, the system will retrieve the BT’s from the BANK account and the BANK ALLOC account. For the BT’s retrieved from the BANK ALLOC account the system will find the other leg of the BT to find the Accounting Activity or Account to include in the Cash Flow report in the same way as the BT’s are retrieved for the DEPOSITALLOC and PAYMENTALLOC accounts.
If the other leg of a BT retrieved from the BANK account is DEPOSITALLOC or PAYMENTALLOC, the system will find the BT for which the other leg is not BANK account to find the Accounting Activity or Account to display in the Cash Flow report as per the current functionality.
Note:
If the BANK account transactions are processed at a Main Scheme level then there should not be any BT’s retrieved from the BANK at a Sub-Umbrella Scheme level as the BANK account transactions will be processed with the Main Umbrella Scheme Code and the BANK ALLOC account transactions processed with the Sub-Umbrella Scheme Code. However there may be exceptions to this where payments are made or deposits receipted for a specific Sub-Umbrella Scheme.
