Notes:
Requirements for Creating a Balance Sheet Item:
- Must have a bank
- Must have balance sheet items turned on
o This is where I will create the system defaults
o First check and then create if needed
System Generated B.S. Items:
- B.S. – Assets – Current Assets – Cash/Bank Accounts
o Each bank account name (dynamic)
- B.S. – Assets – Current Assets – Petty Cash
o Each active location with a positive petty cash value (dynamic)
- B.S. – Assets – Current Assets – Inventory
o Each vendor for parts (dynamic)
o Each make for units (dynamic)
o ??? does inventory go with current assets or by itself under B.S. – Assets – Inventory
• Then grouped by inventory type
• Parts by part category and then vendor
• Units by make
- B.S. – Assets – Current Assets – Accounts Receivable
- B.S. – Liabilities – Current Liabilities – Accounts Payable
- B.S. – Equity – Other Equity – Net Profit
- Others: REI’s, Units, PO’s, Floorplan, Payroll
- Keep a record of crop B.S. groupings and id number. This will help when system creates new system B.S. item.

If everything starts at zero… only add as needed
Steps that a new corp makes:
1. New corp
- No B.S. items created
2. Assign new corp to inventory types
- If assigned to B.S. inventory types
- Set up all defaults groups, sub groups, etc.
3. On locations, watch for petty cash values
- If yes, create B.S. item
4. On banks, watch for new banks
- If yes, create a B.S. items
5. On units, watch for new items
- B.S. item
6. On parts, watch for abnormal part (unlimited don’t count) this may be part of a P.O. or a standalone part. It really doesn’t count until it gets brought into inventory.
- (5 & 6 – could be multiple on a per vendor or per make basis)
7. On PO’s – watch for 1st PO
8. On units, watch for 1st floorplan item
9. On e/r watch for 1st Split
10. On e/r watch for 1st REI
