Financial Reports

Goal

Run core financial statements from the ledger: trial balance, balance sheet, profit & loss, general-ledger drill-down, and (when permitted) receivables / payables aging. Optionally Publish run to snapshot TB / BS / P&L.

Who it is for

Finance managers and accountants with accounting.view. Aging tabs additionally need sales.view (receivables) or purchasing.view (payables) and those modules enabled.

Preconditions

• Permission accounting.view on the route (no separate module meta key; missing permission redirects to Dashboard).
• Chart of accounts and posted activity for meaningful balances.
• Open or historical dates that match the period you intend to analyze.

Open the screen

Accounting → Reporting → Financial Reports (path /reports). Title: Financial Reports. Subtitle: Trial balance, P&L, balance sheet and aging. Query ?tab= selects a tab id.

Steps

1. Choose a tab:
   • Always: Trial balance, Balance sheet, Profit & loss, GL drill-down.
   • Conditional (probe succeeds): Receivables aging, Payables aging.
2. Trial balance — review Code, Name, Debit, Credit, Total (hierarchical accounts).
3. Balance sheet — Assets / Liabilities / Equity plus current earnings. Banner: Balance sheet is balanced. or Balance sheet does not balance.
4. Profit & loss — basis Accrual or Cash; Income / Expenses / Net profit.
5. GL drill-down — pick an account (All accounts or a lookup), then read Date, Code, Reference, Debit, Credit, Balance.
6. Aging — total outstanding, as-of date, buckets Current / 1–30 / 31–60 / 61–90 / 90+, plus party detail.
7. On TB / BS / P&L, use Publish run to store a versioned snapshot (Version · Generated · Hash; Stale icon when superseded). Toast: Report run published.

Result

Tables refresh from GET /reports/trial-balance|balance-sheet|profit-loss|ledger and aging endpoints. Empty: No data for this report yet.

Hard stops

• No accounting.view → Dashboard redirect.
• Aging probe 403/404 → tab hidden silently.
• Unbalanced balance sheet still shows figures with an error-styled message.
• Cash-flow and CSV export exist in API/i18n but are not tabs on this Vue screen.
