			= User Guide: Cash Flow Statement Report =
			'''Module:''' General Ledger / Banking Reports

			'''Report Name:''' Cash Flow Statement - Direct and Indirect Methods (<code>rep603.php</code>)

			This guide is created to allow user to have a better idea about the reports and the data it presented.

			== How to Access the Report ==
			To access and generate the Cash Flow Statement report, follow these navigation steps within your system:

			# Log in to your FrontAccounting / Highnix ERP system.
			# In the top navigation menu, go to '''Analytics''' (or '''General Ledger''' / '''Banking''', depending on your menu configuration).
			# Select '''Banking Reports'''.
			# Click on '''Cash Flow Statement - Direct and Indirect methods'''.
			# Configure your filter criteria (Report Period, Dimensions, Bank Selection, Method, and Zero-Row suppression) and click '''Print PDF''' or '''Excel'''.

			== Understanding the Methods: Direct vs. Indirect ==
			When generating the report, you can choose between two accounting methods via the '''Method''' filter:

			* '''Direct Method (<code>NO</code>):'''
			** '''What it does:''' Tracks actual cash movements (receipts and payments) flowing directly into and out of your bank accounts.
			** '''How it displays:''' It lists out individual transaction details grouped by bank account (e.g., Customer Payments, Bank Payments, Transfers) with opening balances, transaction rows, net changes, and closing balances.
			* '''Indirect Method (<code>YES</code>):'''
			** '''What it does:''' Starts with your company-wide '''Net Profit / Loss Before Tax''' and adjusts it for working capital changes (such as movements in Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable) to arrive at operating cash flow.
			** '''How it displays:''' Presented as a company-wide summary reconciliation rather than a bank-by-bank breakdown.

			== Explanation of the Report Layout & Columns ==
			The report is designed in a comprehensive '''14-column landscape format''' to give management both monthly granularity and rolling yearly totals at a glance:

			* '''Account / Transaction Details (Column 1):''' Displays the description of the bank account, opening/closing balances, transaction references (Direct Method), or operating reconciliation line items (Indirect Method).
			* '''Columns 2 to 13 (The 12 Rolling Months):''' Displays financial movements broken down month-by-month across a 12-month window ending on your selected '''Report Period''' date.
			* '''Column 14 (Fiscal YTD - Year to Date):''' Accumulates totals from the beginning of your current fiscal year up to the selected report period date.
			* '''Column 15 (12 Mo. to Date):''' Accumulates the rolling 12-month total across the entire reporting window.

			== Bank Selection & Filtering Options ==

			* '''ALL BANK ACCOUNTS:''' Selecting "ALL BANK ACCOUNTS" from the dropdown lists out every active bank and cash account sequentially, displaying their individual transaction details, net changes, and concluding with a '''TOTAL NET CASH POSITION''' summary at the bottom.
			* '''Individual Bank Selection:''' If you choose a specific bank account (e.g., ''USD Account - Chequing''), the report restricts the Direct Method output strictly to that chosen financial institution. ''(Note: As standard in corporate finance, the Indirect Method evaluates company-wide ledger movements and therefore displays the company-wide reconciliation regardless of the bank filter).''
			* '''Show Zero Rows (<code>YES</code> / <code>NO</code>):''' When set to '''<code>NO</code>''', the report automatically suppresses and skips rows and accounts where both the Fiscal YTD and 12-Mo totals equal zero, keeping management reports clean and uncluttered.
