Generating Profit Flex

The Generate Profit Flex function regenerates the flex data based on actual numbers. This function is similar to Generate Flex Budget in Budgeting, except that it provides data on a day-by-day basis rather than just period-to-date.


FieldDescription

Division/Department/Job

Specify a specific division, department or job to be used for the flex budget. By default, all divisions, departments and jobs are included. If you know that the changes you made only affect a certain division, department and/or job, by specifying the division, department and/or job you can save time.

Standard Set

(Visible only if you have configured multiple standard sets) Allows you to select the standard set that you want to be used in the flex budget. Standards reflect the job standards that are associated with a job. You may only have one Standard Set (Master) or you may have several Standard Sets which are created when working with "What if..." scenarios. If you only have one standard set, this option will not be visible.
