Identification of note numbers and financial information
Distinguish note numbers and amounts in Japanese financial statements.
(This request is regarding feedback URL, https://feedback.datasnipper.com/forums/952747-financial-statement-suite/suggestions/47159251-recognize-special-characters)In Japanese financial statements, amounts come with note number, e.g. ※1-9 (note number) 123456789 (amounts).
After Ver6.1 DataSnipper recognize ※ as symbol to describe note number.
At the same time note number is recognized as part of financial number.
e.g. When revenue is described as “※1 123456789” DataSnipper recognizes the text as 1123456789.Users are not able to fix this by FSS calculator and this occurs very frequently.

Stamps added to both CY and PY numbers
From delivery perspective, mathematical accuracy check is not performed for Prior year figures however DS5 also adds stamps for PY numbers automatically which is to be individually removed in post extraction stage. This will lead to an impact on overall efficiency as increased time will be taken to remove the additional stamps.

Expand Create Suggestion and Edit Calculation Functionality to Include Subtraction
Currently, you can only edit a calculation or create a suggestion by summing numbers together. It would be beneficial to create suggestions and edit calculations using subtraction. For example, being able to create a suggestion that subtracts total cost of sales from total net sales to calculate gross margin.
Currently, the user would create the suggestion, it would automatically sum the numbers and flag as incorrect, and the user would then have to use the FSS calculator to perform subtraction and change the tickmark manually.

Error tolerance when creating suggestion in Mathematical Accuracy
In Mathematical Accuracy, the numbers in the table are added together in a number of ways and if they match the actual total value expressed, it is expressed as a Suggestion, but if they do not match, it is not expressed as a Suggestion. (False Negative)
Even if there is not an exact match to a suggestion and if the gap between the summed result and the displayed total is small, it should be ideally marked as a Suggestion.

Teach the system how to foot a specific financial statement that is repetitive in the annual report.
When we run the financial statement suite, we get a whole bunch of “false errors” related to our Budget and Actual schedules. These are time consuming to clear out the error for our documentation purposes and I just wish I could train the system to recognize this schedule and know how it is supposed to foot.
For example, the permits revenue line item had a final budget of 100,000 and an actual of 143,137. Because this is revenue, we are showing a favorable variance of 43,137. This is the correct answer. However, Data Snipper wants to add the Actual and…

Foot and cross foot numbers in table
For numbers on the face of the financials or in tables that include foots and cross-foots, add a new tickmark (such as an "x") to show this number foots ("^") and cross-foots ("<").

Save Total Amounts in Calculator for Further Calculations
Sometimes it is necessary to take two sums and find the difference between them. For example, (Assets + Deferred Outflows) - (Liabilities + Deferred Inflows) = Net Position. Currently, this is only possible by summing all amounts and changing the signs on those technically being subtracted. I would like to be able to sum each set of numbers and copy the total amounts into the subtraction function or to use multiple calculator functions within one calculation.

Edit Numbers within the FSS
Problem: Users often need to edit numbers within the FS once issues or errors are detected, currently that requires them to import and export the document which is time consuming.
Proposed Solution: Have the option to update the values directly within the FSS and mabye have it suggested based on the value within the calculator.

FSS Calculator for documentation
Within the calculator in V6 FSS, I want to be able to use the calculator to sum up numbers and then apply a tickmark based on that summation, so that when I hand off to my reviewer, the workbook has tickmarks that are indicative of the due diligence performed by me, the preparer.
For example, in tables with amounts in columns A - E, where E contains the total, FSS may incorrectly identify a column C as a summation of A+B, and suggest incorrect TMs all the way down that column. I would want (1) to remove the suggestions from…

Flag large differences
Currently, no casting is performed on 'large' differences. It would be good to have these flagged to show DS considered them but the difference was over a certain threshold, or allow the user to set the threshold (including no limit).
