To produce a batch of statements by department follow these steps:

1. Using the Statements function, make a statement for each department with a unique statement ID.

   Set up a template statement ID, maybe the statement for the whole company, and copy from that template for each department. Edit the heading information where needed.

   NOTE: Each statement used in the batch MUST have a unique statement ID. When batch statements are printed, a reporting services report is created using the statement ID as the report name. If you have duplicate statement ID’s in a batch the first statement will be overwritten when the same statement ID is printed again and you will lose the information made from the first statement with that statement ID.

2. Set up a Batch ID to put all of your departmental statements into.
3. Add each departmental Statement ID in the order you want them printed and go to the detail view for each statement.
4. For each statement select the Department segment ID in the filter criteria area, using the segment fields, for each statement selecting the corresponding department for each statement.
5. Once all statements have been entered and department IDs selected, close the screen to save your changes.

1. Select a cash flow contents record to edit from the Batch ID field.
2. Edit the fields as necessary.
3. Click the Save button, on the toolbar, to save any changes made to the batch statement record.

2. Click the Delete button, on the toolbar, to delete the selected batch statement record.
