Trial balance report

The Royalty trial balance shows, by Payee/ISBN/Item hierarchy, all calculated advances, royalties and other balances and currency for each contract.

The B/F return provisions and the current period returns provisions (return provisions – returns provision reversal) display under the ‘Balances B/F’ heading and the ‘Current Period’ heading.

Balances are shown for the current period, brought forward from the previous periods, the amount to be paid, and the resultant carried forward total.  A breakdown subtotal is displayed for each payee and grand total by currency. Field “Pending for previous period close” would be “Y” to show that the previous period must close before generating the AP invoices for the current period.
