Division/Category/Branch Reporting

DataWise Limited White paper on Branch/division reporting with MYOB and using DataWise Report Writer for enhanced reporting.

There are 4 ways of doing divisions/branches/categories. All of them require the use of DataWise Report Writer to get useful reports.

	Divisions using Account Descriptions	Jobs	Categories	Separate MYOB files consolidated
Details	This works by having separate accounts for each division using the accounts “account Description” field as a marker to indicate which division the account is allocated to.	This works by assigning jobs to each division. Very easy to do as can have transactions split amongst many divisions.	Every transaction is assigned to a category. Cannot split an invoice over several categories.	Separate data for each division allows different levels of access and can be run at different locations. DataWise Forecast handles budgets , and consolidations
Profit & Loss	P&L Reporting Budgets by month	P&L Reporting	P&L Reporting	P&L Reporting

Summary	Simple to setup and run	Simple and powerful if used in conjunction with DataWise Forecast for budgeting,	The ONLY option if B/Sheet reporting required and a single bank account for all divisions.	More work to enter into separate data files, but the most flexibility for reporting.
