selects activities from source systems (AP, AR, GL, etc.) within a fiscal year based on

the posting date of the journal tied to the activity. The report can be run for the OU,

specified on the run control. Country offices should run generally for one OU

when running this report.

2.3. Data File Load to Excel

The default format of this report is CSV, to load into Excel, please follow these steps:

1. Run the report with CSV as the output format.

2. When retrieving the output via Process Monitor, choose to save the file to disk.

Do not open directly into Excel as you will not be able to specify the appropriate

conversion options. Use the default filename with TXT extension, or choose

another filename but keep the TXT extension.

3. Open Microsoft Excel.

4. Choose to Open a document from the menu or toolbar.

5. Select the file saved previously. Excel will open the Text Import Wizard.

6. Select Delimited as data type, then choose Next.

7. Unselect all existing delimiters (such as Tab). Then, select other as the delimiter

and enter the pipe (|) character as the delimiter. Select Next.

8. If needed, you can select the type for each column, but this is not required.

9. Select Finish.

The first row of the file will include the column headings. All remaining rows will

contain the data. Please remember that Excel has a 65535 row limit, so if you open larger

files, the data beyond row 65535 will not appear.

3. Additional Notes

 The report does not populate any opening balance carried forward from previous

fiscal year, because the opening balance is only available in GL not in sub-

systems. To get the correct balance of a balance sheet account, it is recommended

that you run the report from 01/01/2004.

 The report does not populate any pre-ATLAS converted balance, again because

converted balance is only available in GL except for NEX advance account

16005. To get the pre-ATLAS balance converted to GL, please go to General
