Sales Reports Instructions

In its default configuration, this section features prominent, bold text that spells out the company’s name and address. There is a system setting which when toggled replaces the default text with a pre-selected image in the header. This header image can either span the full width across the top of each page or be displayed with a limited width within the same section on each page.
This section signifies the report type and the time frame it encompasses.

This section summarises all Revenue resulting from the transactions listed further down in that particular report.

Consider a sales report that details transactions where the total cash revenue amounted to USD $200.00. In such a report, the Revenue Summary Table would feature a row specifically reflecting this cash revenue, in it's specific currency. This row would be labeled as [11110] - Cash (USD). The number 11110, enclosed in square brackets, represents the unique account number for the Cash (USD) Asset General Ledger Account. Technically (in accounting terms and in the Chart of Accounts) the [11110] - Cash (USD) account is an Asset account as opposed to being a Revenue account. Each General Ledger Account has its own distinct account number.

In addition to the cash and bank account funds forms of revenues, another form of revenue is Accounts Receivable (abbreviated as AR). These debts are considered assets in much the same way that cash and bank account funds. In the chart of accounts, the Accounts Receivable Asset General Ledger Account has four child accounts, each representing a different type of debtor.

  • Corporates (AR)
  • Customers (AR)
  • Patients (AR)
  • >Medical Aid Societies (AR)

The Medical Aid Societies (AR) General Ledger Account is subdivided into 30+ sub-accounts, each corresponding to a different medical aid society company. Given that claims constitute a significant revenue stream for medical practices, most reports will feature at least one or more of these 30+ Medical Aid Society sub-accounts in the Revenue Summary Table. An example of a sub-account you might find listed in the Revenue Summary table of a report is (AR) Cimas.

Consider a sales report that details transactions involving claims from different Cimas patients, who have policies of different currencies. Suppose the total/combined claim amount across these patients is USD $100.00 (for premium Cimas policies) plus an additional ZIG $4440.00 (for the who are on ZIG denominated policies treated within the same period). In such a case, the Revenue Summary Table would feature two separate rows, each corresponding to the General Ledger Account [11330.09] - (AR) Cimas. Like any other row in the summary table, the Cimas General Ledge Account has a unique account number, which is 11330.09. In one of the rows corresponding to Cimas, the revenue amount of USD $100.00 would be displayed, while in the other row, the ZIG $4440.00 revenue amount would be shown.
