Overview
Note: QuickFlora DOES NOT provide accounting support, only application support. You should have a strong knowledge of double entry accounting procedures before trying to use the GL, AP and Payroll modules. We can provide a list of third party accounting vendors that can help provide accounting set up and support for a hourly fee or you can consult with a local provider.
Modifying the General Ledger / Chart of Accounts
The General Ledger can be easily modified in the system through the use of the “Chart Of Accounts” Screen in the “Ledger” panel in the programs main menu. Look at how some of the GL Accounts are set-up in the system for a good idea about how you should set-up your additional accounts.
General Ledger / Chart of Account Setup
General Ledger posting accounts are set-up in two places, Default GL accounts are set-up in the “Company Set-up” Screen using the “Accounts” tab. Here is where all of the Default AR, AP, Bank and other posting accounts are defined. These accounts are all set-up by default, but they should be reviewed to make sure they meet your posting needs.
Payroll GL Setup in done in the “Payroll Set-up” Screen in the “Account Set-up” tab. These accounts must be set-up before you begin payroll processing.
The system setup checklist has more information about this process and can be found in the “Installation & Getting Started Guide”
General Ledger / Chart of Account Periods Setup
The periods and the period dates are set-up in the “Company Set-up” screen using the “Periods” tab. Please enter your Fiscal year, Fiscal Year Start and End dates, Current Fiscal Period, and Period Start Dates in this Screen before using the software.
General Ledger Posting Guide
Overview
All of the posting within the QuickFlora Application is done through the use of stored procedures. The stored procedures are passed accounting documents and are then reviewed by the posting procedures to make sure all of the data necessary is accounted for and then the procedure updates the proper accounts in the system.
Stored procedures within the system are designed to be as autonomous as possible, so the same procedures that are called right after a user enters an order for example can also be used, for example, to post EDI Documents automatically without user intervention.
The QuickFlora supports Multi-currency transactions, so you can see from the code that before a transaction is posted, the currency type is checked and the transaction is converted to the ledge default currency (Per GAAP Rules) before posting to the General Ledger.
Currencies and Multi-Currency Processing
The QuickFlora System supports multi-currency processing. However, in order to receive the full benefit of the multi-currency feature, and to ensure accurate reporting, steps must be taken to setup the system properly. Follow the procedures outlined below to correctly setup and use the multi-currency feature in the QuickFlora system.
1. Confirm the default currency for the company.
The default currency is selected during the company setup process. Therefore, this step will confirm that the proper default currency is selected in the company screen. To do this go into System Setup then Company Setup then click Company Setup again. Select your company from the list and click on the pencil to edit/view the company. Once the Company screen loads, click the Defaults tab at the top of the screen. This will bring up the default settings for this company.
The first line is the Currency ID which determines the default currency for this company. This should already be selected to the native currency that your company does business in. If not, select the proper currency from the drop down list.
If your company/division/department does not need or use the multi-currency feature, then there is nothing more that needs to be done. Otherwise, follow the steps below to setup the system for multi-currency accounting.
2. Determine the GL Account for the Currency Gains and Losses
The QuickFlora system is shipped with default data. Included in the default data is a Chart of Accounts (CoA) which includes a realized and unrealized default GL Account for the Multi-Currency feature. If your company is going to use the default GL account that comes with the system, then you can skip this step and proceed to step 3. If your company is going to use a different GL Account for the Currency Gains and Losses, then setup the new Currency Gain and Loss account at this time. Refer to the user manual under the section titled General Ledger for more information on setting up a new account in the General Ledger.
3. Select the default GL Accounts for the Currency Gains and Losses
In this step, you will select the General Ledger Accounts for the Currency gains and losses. From the Company Setup screen, click the Accounts tab. This will bring up the screen with a list of default accounts for the Company. The GL Currency Gain Loss Account can be found towards the bottom of the list. The default account of 490000 Realized Gains and Losses should already be selected for this account. If this is not the account you want to use, or if you created your own, then select it from the drop down list.
Next, select the GL Currency Unrealized Gain Loss Account. It is located immediately under the GL Currency Gain Loss Account and has 491000 Unrealized Gains & Losses selected as the default account. If this is not the account you want to use, or if you created your own, select it from the drop down list.
When you have finished selecting the default GL Accounts for the Currency Gains and Losses, click OK to exit the Company Accounts screen.
4. Enter the Currencies into the Currencies Table
Now that the accounts have been setup for the currency, the next step is to enter the currency values into the currencies table. You should enter the rates for all of the currencies that your company expects to conduct business in. The QuickFlora system is shipped with a small list of foreign currencies and sample currency exchange data only. To enter additional currencies and the current exchanges, go into the System Setup option from the main menu, then Company Setup. From there, click on the Currencies option and that will bring up the list of currencies entered into the system.
To enter a new currency record, click the New button at the top of the screen. A screen will come up where you can enter the information for a new currency record.
To edit an existing currency record, click the edit button (the pencil) next to the currency record to bring up that currency’s record. From there, you can edit the current exchange of the currency.
Note: The currency exchange rates that are shipped with the system are SAMPLE rates only. They are not accurate nor current and MUST be changed prior to use.
You can manually update the currency exchange rates on a regular basis or as often as your company sees fit.
Note: There is no automated method to update the currency exchange rates. The only way to update them and ensure they are current and accurate is to update them manually.
There are many different ways of obtaining the current currency exchange rates and you should use the method that works best for you. XE.com (http://www.xe.com) is free a website that has the current currency exchange rates in real-time with an automatic refresh of the page every few minutes. You can also sign up for their email subscription service to receive the currency exchange rates daily by email.
Each time the currency exchange rates are changed, the old rate and the date the rate was changed will automatically go into the Currency Rates History Table. If you enter a transaction for an older date, the system will automatically use the rate from the Currency Rates History Table as of the transaction date, even if the date is in the past. For example, if a transaction was entered on March 15, 2004, but the date on the transaction is entered as March 1, 2004, the system will select the currency exchange rate from the Currency History Table as of March 1, 2004.
In any event, the system automatically uses the most current exchange rate as of the transaction date entered in the system.
Note: In following with GAAP Compliancy, currency amounts are set to and converted to the company default currency at the current exchange rate before posting.
5. Setup bank and General Ledger accounts as needed for the currencies
After the current currency exchange rates are entered into the Currencies Table, the next step is to create a separate bank account and a separate General Ledger cash account in the system for each of the currencies that your company deals in. Each of these bank accounts should point to a cash account in the General Ledger.
You would setup the bank accounts in the company setup screen just as you setup all the other bank accounts. Additionally, you would setup the General Ledger Cash accounts just as you setup other General Ledger accounts.
For more information on setting up bank accounts and General Ledger accounts, please refer to the section titled Banking under General Ledger and General Ledger Posting Guide, respectively, in the User Manual.
Congratulations!
You have successfully completed setting up the multi-currency feature of the QuickFlora system. The rest of the steps are automatically handled by the system. When entering transactions, be sure to select the proper currency from the Currency ID drop down lists. The system will automatically complete the current exchange rate when the transaction is entered. When the transaction is paid, or cash is received for that transaction, the system will calculate the rate and make the proper posting to the Realized Currency Gain / Loss account in the Chart of Accounts.
Ledger Chart of Accounts
The Chart of Accounts is the heart of any accounting system. It is a list of all the accounts that a company uses to record the transactions within their accounting system.
QuickFlora comes shipped with a default Chart of Accounts suitable for most companies. This default Chart of Accounts can and should be customized to meet your company’s needs by adding or removing accounts during the initial setup process.
The Chart of Accounts in QuickFlora is broken down into six categories. Each category is assigned a number which indicates the “type” of category.
In the Chart of Accounts that ships with the QuickFlora the category numbers are 6-digit numbers with the first digit being the category number. You can customize the account numbers in the Chart of Accounts to use up to 36 digits with the restriction that accounts must begin with the specific category digit as detailed in the table above. This is extremely important to remember when adding new accounts to the Chart of Accounts. For new accounts, the account number must begin with the corresponding digit for that category, but the remaining numbers can be any number you specify.
Adding a New Account
To add a new account to the Chart of Accounts, click the New button at the top of the screen. This will bring up a blank account setup form with four sections. Click on a link for the details about that section.

Creating a GL Account for the Bank Account
A General Ledger account must be created before setting up a bank account. Only ONE bank account can be assigned to ONE GL account, therefore a separate GL Asset account must be setup for each bank account in the system.

When you are finished, click OK to close the screens.
Bank Account Reconciliation
Bank Account Reconciliation is the process by which you compare the information in the company’s records with the statements provided each month by the bank for the bank account and balance the difference so that the bank’s records and the company’s records balance.
The QuickFlora system makes bank reconciliation an easy process. To access the bank reconciliation screen, from the main menu click General Ledger then click Banking then click Reconcile Bank Accounts. A screen will be displayed that contains the company’s bank accounts ready to be reconciled. If no bank accounts have been reconciled yet, then the default record will be displayed until the first bank reconciliation is entered.
Creating the Bank Reconciliation for the First Time
If a bank account to be reconciled does not appear on the Bank Reconciliation screen, then that account will need to be added to the screen. To do this, from the main Bank Reconciliation screen, click the New button. This will bring up a screen where you can select the bank account for the new bank reconciliation.
From the drop down list in the field Bank ID, select the name of the bank account that you are setting up the bank reconciliation for. The information will be automatically populated in the fields but you will not be able to edit it. This is only to confirm that the information is correct for the bank account selected and to add the information to the table in the system. Click CLOSE to save the newly created reconciliation and return to the Bank Reconciliation list and proceed to the next step, reconciling the bank account.
Reconciling Bank Accounts
Select the bank account from the Bank Reconciliation List to begin the reconciliation process.
After clicking the bank account to be reconciled, the Bank Account Reconciliation Detail screen is displayed. From this screen there are two separate screens displaying the debit and credit transactions for that bank account, fields on the main screen to enter service charges and adjustments to balance the account, and a display on the right showing the current balance in the company’s “books”.
The data displaying the company balances cannot be edited, it retrieves the information based on the balances in the system automatically.
There are four steps to reconciling a bank account. They should be completed in order to ensure accuracy of the bank reconciliation.
1. Review the previous bank reconciliation and retrieve the current bank statement
The first step is to ensure that the actual bank statement to be reconciled from the bank is available. Also, you may want to review the previous bank reconciliation before beginning a new bank reconciliation.
To review the previous bank reconciliation on an account, select General Ledger from the main menu, then View Bank Reconciliations. From that screen, all the bank reconciliations previously entered into the QuickFlora system can be reviewed. Further information about the Bank Reconciliation Summary Screen can be found in the corresponding documentation section.
2. Enter initial information from the bank statement
Next, enter the Reconciliation Start Date, Reconciliation End Date and the Ending Balance as shown on the Bank Statement. Detailed information about these fields and the remaining fields are listed below. Do not enter information into the other fields yet. They will be reviewed later in the reconciliation process. When you enter the amount in the Ending Balance field, you will notice that the box on the right side of the screen that says “Stmt Balance” is updated with the amount you just entered. This reflects the balance shown on the bank statement.
3. Compare and Clear Transactions with the Bank Statement
The third step in reconciling the bank account is to compare and clear all the debit and credit transactions on the company’s books with those that were processed by the bank and displayed on the bank statement. First, click the Credit button to display the screen listing the Credit Transactions. Review each transaction individually to ensure what is displayed on the screen and entered in the system corresponds with the bank statement. If the data corresponds, check off the box next to that transaction. This indicates that the transaction is accurate and has “cleared” the bank.
If the transaction is different then what is shown on the bank statement, then research needs to be done to find the difference and enter an adjustment to correct the error. If the transaction displayed in the system does not accurately match what is on the bank statement, then the transaction should not be checked off.
Note: If a transaction is not marked as “cleared” it will reappear on the next bank reconciliation.
As the transactions are checked off, the Company’s book balances displayed on the screen are automatically updated to reflect the current balance.
Once all the Credit transactions have been reviewed and cleared, click the Debit button to display the screen listing the Debit Transactions. As with the Credit transactions, review the list and check off each box if the transaction has cleared the bank. As the transactions are checked off, the Company’s book balances displayed on the screen are automatically updated to reflect the current balance.
When you are finished selecting the Debit transactions, click the Main button to return to the main bank reconciliation screen.
4. Enter additional transactions if needed
The last step in the Bank Reconciliation process is to enter any transactions that appear on the bank statement but have not been recorded in the system on the company’s records. These transactions may include service charges, interest, or other charges and adjustments. Enter each amount in the field on the main screen, and select the GL Account where the transaction should be posted. Further information on each field is listed in detail below.
As with clearing the debit and credit transactions, when entering additional transactions in the respective fields, the book balance display is automatically updated.
5. Posting the Bank Reconciliation to the GL
When you are finished working with the bank reconciliation and ready to post the transactions to the General Ledger, click the Post button to post the bank reconciliation to the GL. Posting the bank reconciliation to the GL record the service charge transactions, adjusting entries (if any) and additional transactions entered during the bank reconciliation process. You can print the bank reconciliation at any time by clicking the Print button.
Note: You must click the post button to post the bank reconciliation to the General Ledger and record the adjusting transactions entered for the bank account.
