  1. Some financial statements have notes references in parentheses next to each line item. The IC test in FSS does not recognize these note references because it is not in a note references column format, and does not provide suggestions. It would be great for DataSnipper to be able to recognize note references in this format in a Financial Statement so that the IC test can provide suggestions.

  2. V6

    I have mentioned this to my account manager but we need to have some form of password protection on Version 6 FSS projects.

    We audit firms which hit different criteria and need to lock down audit files. The FSS component being changed now will make it hard to control as its not longer associated to the workbook (which was in a locked audit file).

    We wont be using v6 until something like this is enabled unfortunately.

  3. Often datasnipper does not recognize the right PY range in the current and prior year financial statement. The user should have the ability to select a range for each page in the prior year financial statement and current year financial statement which will be compared and ticked to each other. Optionally it would be cool if datasnipper would learn those ranges and tries to apply it to other pages as for large umbrella funds it would safe a lot of time.

  4. Can a feature be added to the financial statement suite which allows the prior year check function to hold two sets of financial statements as the half-year accounts balance sheet is from June to dec and P&L from Dec to Dec.

  6. Version compare - ignore headers/footers option

    We often use version compare to look at drafts of financial statements, each draft usual has something in the header/footer to show when the draft was made so when looking at these in version compare theres a huge amount of flagged changes that we don't need to look at.

    So if a range at the top/bottom could be set to be ignored or if we could enter specific text strings to ignore i.e. the draft message then that would make things much cleaner and the tool significantly more valuable

  8. 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.

  9. We need a way of referencing between a disclosure checklist and the relevant disclosure. Currently, we are relying on staff and manager review to catch whether a disclosure is made or needs to be made and it is relatively common for there to be mistakes.

  10. We have just upgraded to the latest FSS version 6.0.11 and are experiencing that the functionality when manually checking off previous year (PY) and internal consistency (IC) has deteriorated. Now, when we first click on the amount, we have to choose whether it matches or not, and then select the amount in the financial statements. It was much better before when PY/IC was pre-filled as if it matched, and you manually had to choose if it didn't match. The new way takes much longer for us.

    Similarly, in Internal Consistency, when we select an amount that matches, it does not…

  11. Add the possibility in the FSS to add an extra document to check consistency with. Examples are: FS to TB recon, FS to budget sheet recon, FS to tax sheet recon, etc.

  12. Would it be possible to streamline “saving” changes to the original FSS file with the push of a button and eliminate the need to manually export and import the FSS project during each layer of review?

  14. The version comparison tool changes when a new document is presented depending on if we are using standard version compare or version compare within FSS.

  15. Sometimes the size of the tickmarks overlaps with the text and tables in FS reports. Making it impossible to read the information bellow.

  16. It would be great if the version compare feature in FSS had the ability to compare text changes in addition to number changes.

    It would improve the quality of life for the end-user as they would no longer need to exit FSS to see a text comparison of 2 documents.

  17. 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…

  18. The review of tickmarks which are combined (with a vertical line) is challenging
    as you cannot see the direct link for each number unless you click on the number itself. A hover over the value should ideally show the reference to the prior year value.

  19. The current export options either shows manual comments in the summary and document detail or not at all (not even in the document detail).
    Whereas the roundings has the option to show in doc detail or not but never comes in the summary.

    Both of these would nice to have an option to include or not for both the summary and doc detail (and the manual comments may be nice to give that option for each comment (i.e. when created)).

  20. For tables in notes such as fixed assets, it would be useful to check the PY closings to the current year openings. In the examples of fixed assets, this would include cost, accumulated depreciation and NBV.
