3. Using the Easy Add-ons to integrate Caseware IDEA® with Caseware Working Papers 

The CaseView document 250.IDEA.01 - Easy Integrate has been developed for use with Caseware Working Papers to facilitate the integration with Caseware IDEA®. 

 

A placeholder for this document is included in the IDEA® Integration folder in Caseware Working Papers and can be downloaded from the Caseware Community by following the link provided in the placeholder. 

The document has been designed to facilitate the process of using the Easy Add-ons in the integration process by following predefined steps. Each step must be completed successfully before proceeding to the next step in the integration process. 

In Step 1 – Preparing for the integration, the document facilitates the process of: 

  • Obtaining and executing Easy Extract to extract data tables from supported accounting information systems. 

  • Creating a new project in Caseware IDEA®. 

  • Executing Easy Import to import the data tables exported from the supported accounting information system into the newly created project in Caseware IDEA®. 

  • Executing Easy Convert to convert imported and mapped data fields into a standardised format for use by Easy Integrate. 

  • Linking the Caseware IDEA® project with the related Caseware Working Papers file. 

In Step 2 – Trial balance comparison, the document facilitates the process of: 

  • Comparing the engagement trial balance in Caseware Working Papers with the standardised system trial balance in Caseware IDEA® by executing Easy Integrate: TB_Compare. 

In Step 3 – General ledger comparison, the document facilitates the process of: 

  • Comparing the movement per general ledger account in the standardised system trial balance in Caseware IDEA® with the movement per general ledger account in the standardised system general ledger by executing Easy Integrate: GL_Compare. 

In Step 4 – General ledger understanding, the document facilitates the process of: 

  • Obtaining an understanding of the system general ledger by executing Easy Integrate: GL_Understand to prepare various analyses on the standardised system general ledger. 

In Step 5 – General ledger procedures, the document facilitates the process of:

  • Disaggregating the system general ledger data by executing Easy Integrate: GL_Split. 

 

4. Understanding the Process log and Errors log entries of the Easy Add-ons 

Every Easy Add-on creates entries in the Process log (IDEA® table: Log_Process) when the app is executed, except for Easy Extract. 

At a minimum, each execution of an Easy Add-on will result in a notification message that the process initiated and a notification message that the process completed. 

Where an error (or errors) occurs when an Easy Add-on is executed, a message will be included in the Process log to notify you that the process could not be completed because of the error(s) or that the process was completed with an error(s). 

Where an error (or errors) has occurred, a message (or messages) will also be included in the Errors log (IDEA® table: Log_Process_Errors). 

Please refer to Annexure A: Process and Error log entries. 

 

5. How to use Easy Extract 

5.1 What does Easy Extract do? 

Easy Extract extracts data tables of supported accounting information systems from the database of a selected entity in the accounting information system. 

Easy Extract only extracts the data tables in the applicable database that have records. I.e., data tables that do not have any records are not extracted. 

Easy Extract extracts all the fields and all the records of the data tables that are extracted. 

As part of the extraction process, Easy Extract obtains and saves the following control information from the applicable database in tables for further use by Easy Import: 

  • EasyImport_ExtractedTables 

This table includes the names of all the data tables extracted from the applicable database by Easy Extract. 

  • EasyImport_NonExtractedTables  

This table includes the names of all the data tables in the applicable database that were not extracted by Easy Extract.

  • EasyImport_TablesNotImported: this table includes the names of all the tables that have not been imported into Caseware IDEA® by Easy Import from the applicable zip file. 

  1. Easy Import performs the following control procedures on the data tables imported into Caseware IDEA®: 

  • The number of records per data table that has been imported into Caseware IDEA® is compared to the number of records of that table in the database from which the data tables were extracted. The names of all the tables where the number of records of the imported data table in IDEA® does not agree to the number of records of the data table in the database will be included in the results table: Results_Imported_Record_Count_Differences. 

  • The tables imported into Caseware IDEA® are compared to the tables extracted from the database. All tables that were not imported into IDEA® will be included in the results table: Results_Extracted_Tables_Not_Imported. 

  • The fields per data table that have been imported into Caseware IDEA®, is compared to the fields for that data table in the database from which the data tables were extracted. All fields that have not been imported into IDEA® will be included in the results table: Results_Extracted_Fields_Not_Imported. 

  • The field types per field per data table that have been imported into Caseware IDEA® is compared to the field types per field per data table in the database from which the data tables were extracted. All fields imported of which the data type in IDEA® does not agree to the data type in the database will be included in the results table: Results_Imported_Field_Type_Differences. 
  • The field statistics of the numeric fields of the data tables imported into Caseware IDEA® are analysed to identify numeric fields that contain data errors after import. All the numeric fields that data errors will be included in the results table: Results_Imported_Bad_Data.

If you have confirmed that the results of GL_Understand can be used for further procedures, you can also proceed with reviewing the results of GL_Understand that have been prepared to assist you with gaining a deeper understanding of the transaction records that were processed in the system general ledger during the selected fiscal period. 

 

8.7.4 How can I use the results of GL_Understand? 

The results prepared by GL_Understand can be used to obtain an understanding of the transaction records that were processed in the system general ledger during the selected fiscal period and to incorporate that understanding in the relevant sections of your engagement. 


8.8 How to use Easy Integrate: GL_Procedures 

8.8.1 What does GL_Procedures do? 

  1. Easy Integrate: GL_Procedures executes procedures that you select on the CaseView document 250.IDEA.00 - Easy Integrate on the standardised system general ledger (IDEA® table: GL_Details).  

  1. The following general ledger procedures and related results can be executed and prepared by GL_Procedures: 

  • Missing GL Journal Entries (results table: Results_GL_Procedures=MissingGLjournalEntries) 

This procedure is designed to identify missing general ledger journal entries using the field containing the journal number. The basic assumption for this procedure is that the general ledger journal entries are sequentially numbered and that there should be no gaps in the sequence.  

In this results table, the journal numbers (or number ranges) of any missing general ledger journal entries are included. 

The results of the procedure are classified as follows: 

All the results included in this table relate to missing general ledger journal entries and are accordingly exceptions. If the results table has no records, then no exceptions have been identified. 

Please note that this procedure is available for Syspro, but is not available for Sage 300. 

  • Out of Balance GL Journal Entries (results table: Results_GL_Procedures=OutOfBalanceGLjournalEntries) 

This procedure is designed to identify general ledger journal entries that are out of balance using the field containing the transaction amounts of each record in the relevant journal entry. 

In this results table, the summarised journal entries of the general ledger journal entries that are out of balance are included. 

The results of the procedure are classified as follows: 

All the results included in this table relate to general ledger journal entries that are out of balance and are accordingly exceptions. If the results table has no records, then no exceptions have been identified. 

  • Duplicate GL Journal Entry records (results table: Results_GL_Procedures=DuplicateGLjournalEntryRecords) 

This procedure is only performed on the general ledger journal entries that originated in the general ledger. The procedure is designed to identify general ledger journal entries with duplicate records that have been processed more than once using the fields containing the journal number, the general ledger account number and the transaction amount. The duplicate records may or may not be valid.  

General ledger journal entry records are included in the results of this procedure if the values of the fields JOURNAL_NUMBER, GL_ACCOUNT_NUMBER and FUNCTIONAL_AMOUNT are the same. 

In this results table, the journal entry records of the general ledger journal entries are included. 

The results of the procedure are classified as follows: 

All the results included in this table relate to duplicated general journal entry records and are accordingly exceptions to be reviewed and investigated where determined as necessary. If the results table has no records, then no exceptions have been identified. 

  • GL Journal Entries Processed at the End of Year-End (results table: Results_GL_Procedures=GLjournalsProcessedAtTheEndOfYearEnd 

This procedure is only performed on the general ledger journal entries that originated in the general ledger. The procedure is designed to extract all general ledger journal entries that originated in the general ledger and that were processed after the specified date before the end of the financial period. 

In this results table, the summarised journal entries of the extracted general ledger journal entries are included. 

The results of the procedure are not classified. 

  1. The results tables of GL_Procedures will be included in the IDEA integration folder in the linked Caseware Working Papers file. 

 

8.8.2 Where do I find GL_Procedures? 

Easy Integrate: GL_Procedures is executed from Caseware Working Papers by completing the procedures under Step 5 – General ledger procedures on the CaseView document 250.IDEA.00 - Easy Integrate. 

 

8.8.3 How do I execute GL_Procedures? 

Easy Integrate: GL_Understand must be executed successfully before Easy Integrate: GL_Procedures can be executed. 

The following steps must be followed to execute GL_Procedures: 

 

 

  1. Select the general ledger procedures that you want GL_Procedures to perform on the standardised general ledger (IDEA® table: GL_Details) in Caseware IDEA®. 

 

 
  1. Click the Execute GL_Procedures button to initiate the execution of GL_Procedures. When GL_Procedures has completed, the message “Execute GL_Procedures Complete” will be displayed. Click the OK button to continue. 

  1. Once GL_Procedures has completed, review the log entries in the Process log (IDEA® table: Log_Process) and the Errors log (IDEA® table: Log_Process_Errors) and confirm that the results can be used for further procedures. If you cannot confirm this, then you should not proceed with the review of the results. 

  1. If you have confirmed that the results of GL_Procedures can be used for further procedures, you can proceed with reviewing the results of GL_Procedures for the selected procedures located in the General Ledger folder in the linked IDEA® project. 

 

8.8.4 How can I use the results of GL_Procedures? 

The results prepared by GL_Procedures can be used to address the objectives of the related general ledger procedures. 

 

8.9 How to use Easy Integrate: GL_Split 

8.9.1 What does GL_Split do and how can I use the results? 

  1. Easy Integrate: GL_Split prepares disaggregated data tables from the standardised system general ledger (IDEA® table: GL_Details) in Caseware IDEA® for the Financial Statement Areas (‘FSAs’) in the linked Caseware Working Papers file and includes the data tables in separate folders per FSA in the linked IDEA® project.  

  1. The disaggregated data tables are included in the linked IDEA® project for each Financial Statement Area (FSA) as follows: 

  • Table name: FSAname (E.g. 405. Inventories) 

In this results table, all the transaction records from the system general ledger are included that relate to the FSA. 

You can use the results in this table to: 

  • Review the transaction records relating to the FSA for unusual entries. 

  • Update engagement documentation and procedures for the FSA as and where appropriate. 

  • Table name: FSAname=SummBySourceCode (E.g. 405. Inventories=SummBySourceCode) 

This table is a summary of the transaction records in the table FSAname. 

In this results table, the transaction records in the standardised system general ledger that relate to the FSA have been summarised by source code, then by source description and then by ERP subledger module. 

You can use the results in this table to: 

  • View and identify all the different source codes from which transactions included in the system general ledger for the FSA originated. 

  • Ensure that all the transaction source codes included in the system general ledger for the FSA are addressed in the relevant procedures planned for the FSA. 

  • Identify 'non-standard' source codes created by the entity. The field Source_Description will include the words 'Further refinement required' where Easy Convert has not been able to match the source code to the standard library of source codes for the selected accounting information system. 

  • Table name: FSAname=LSbyGroupNumberBySourceCode (E.g. 405. Inventories=LSbyGroupNumberBySourceCode) 

This table is a summary of the transaction records in the table FSAname. 

In this results table, the transaction records in the standardised system general ledger that relate to the FSA have been summarised by group number and then by general ledger account number and the aggregate transaction amounts allocated into separate fields for each source code for which transaction records are included in the relevant general ledger account. The last record in this results table calculates the total per field. The totals of this results table should agree to the related lead sheet in the linked Caseware Working Papers file. For lead sheets relating to the Statement of Financial Position, switch on the Show Amount Change property for the related lead sheet for easier comparison. 

You can use the results in this table to: 

  • Agree the disaggregated transaction data from the standardised system general ledger for the FSA to the related lead sheet in the linked Caseware Working Papers file. 

  • Identify the sources of the transaction records included in each general ledger account mapped to the FSA. 

  • Drill down into the transaction records per general ledger account mapped to the FSA. 

  • Table name: FSAname+origin=GL (E.g. 405. Inventories+origin=GL) 

This table is an extraction of transaction records from the table FSAname. 

In this results table, transaction records from the standardised system general ledger are included that relate to the FSA and that did not originate from a sub-module of the accounting information system. 

You can use the results in this table to identify all the transaction records relating to the FSA that originated in the system general ledger. 

  • Table name: FSAname origin=GL+sourcecode=n (E.g. 405. Inventories origin=GL+sourcecode=JE) 

This table is an extraction of transaction records from the table FSAname+origin=GL. 

In this results table, transaction records from the standardised system general ledger are included that relate to the FSA, which originated in the system general ledger and that relate to the indicated source code. 

You can use the results in this table to select transaction records for further procedures if you are able to confirm that the transaction records represent the transaction level entries (i.e., that the transaction records do not relate to aggregated or batched transactions or different transaction types).  

  • Table name: FSAname+origin=submod (E.g. 405. Inventories+origin=submod) 

This table is an extraction of transaction records from the table FSAname. 

In this results table, transaction records from the standardised system general ledger are included that relate to the FSA and that originated from a sub-module of the accounting information system. 

You can use the results in this table to identify all the transaction records relating to the FSA that originated from a sub-module of the accounting information system. 

  • Table name: FSAname+origin=submod+sourcecode=n (E.g. 405. Inventories origin=submod+sourcecode=AP) 

This table is an extraction of transaction records from the table FSAname+origin=submod. 

In this results table, transaction records from the standardised system general ledger are included that relate to the FSA, which originated from a sub-module of the accounting information system and that relate to the indicated source code. 

You can use the results in this table to select transaction records for further procedures if you are able to confirm that the transaction records represent the transaction level entries (i.e., that the transaction records do not relate to aggregated or batched transactions or different transaction types). 

  1. Please note that the results tables of GL_Split will be included in the IDEA integration folder in the linked Caseware Working Papers file. 

 

8.9.2 Where do I find GL_Split? 

Easy Integrate: GL_Split is executed from Caseware Working Papers by completing the procedures under Step 6 – General ledger disaggregation on the CaseView document 250.IDEA.00 - Easy Integrate.
