Control the reporting version.
Find why a portfolio changes after a fresh project export.
Begin the lessonVersion selection can change what contributes.
EstateMaster CC / Fixed and Latest cash-flow version selection.
The portfolio changed. Nobody edited it.
A project team has exported an updated cash flow under the same Cash Flow Title. You need to reconcile the reporting set.
Inspect whether the consolidation uses “Use Latest” or “Use Fixed”. Use Latest selects the newest stored version for an identical Cash Flow Title. Use Fixed keeps the currently selected cash flows instead of automatically taking later exports.
The method you will practise
- Check the consolidation’s version-selection setting.
- Compare the selected version for each project with the reporting set you intended to use.
- For a fixed reporting set, deliberately select and verify the required versions. Do not assume the latest export is the approved one.
EstateMaster CC / Fixed and Latest cash-flow version selection.
Does the latest stored export necessarily mean the approved reporting version?
Choose what you expect. The feedback will help you test your starting idea.
Compare selection behaviour after the export
Compare the cases below. Notice what changes, then read the explanation of why.
This explains which versions contribute; it does not confirm that the underlying project figures are correct.
You need an agreed month-end reporting set. What should you verify?
Give me a hint
Check the consolidation’s version-selection setting.
Now try it in your software.
Inspect Use Fixed / Use Latest and the cash-flow version selected for each project. Match Cash Flow Titles when tracing later exports. This example does not claim that the latest export is correct.
You can identify a version-selection change before investigating every project assumption.
