Systems Design

Summary

QB dashboard panel is a part of CT2 dashboard that is located on the homepage of CT2 Internal Application.

This panel is designed for:

1) indicating of new accounting documents in CT2 (should be imported to the QuickBooks accounting system).
2) daily transmission of accounting information from CT2 to the QuickBooks accounting system in IIF-format.
Intuit Interchange Format (IIF) files are text files that QuickBooks uses to import and export data. 
  • Each IIF-file is a daily batch file. This file should be created automatically and it should contain an information about all account documents that were created in CT2 per one day.
  • At now the documents for uploading to batch file are Sales Invoice and Credit Note only for New York office.
NOTE: Unapproved Credit Notes should not be part of the upload.
  • A daily time of creating of the batch is 6 p.m. (NY Time Zone = EDT).
NOTE: It would be desirable to be able to set this value in the Admin's part of CT2.
  • Each IIF-file can be downloaded from QB panel on user's computer for its further transmission into QuickBooks.

QB dashboard panel

QB dashboard panel indicates number of new documents in CT2 that not imported yet to the QuickBooks. QB panel placed on the homepage of CT2 Internal Application in the form of the table. See on Figure 1.

Each row on the QB panel corresponds to one type of accounting document. Each value in the "Not imported" column is a link to the #QB document table.

Columns Definitions

  • Document Name: Type of document.
  • Not imported: Number of new documents of this type.

QB document table

Each document table corresponds to one type of document and should represent list of all available batch IIF-files by this type.

QB document table is a standard CT2 table with paging and sorting features. Each row of the document table corresponds to one date. See on Figure 2 and Figure 3.

Columns Definitions

  • Table of batches should be sorted by this column in descending order
  • Example: 03-Sep-2010.
  • Filename: Name of downloadable IIF-file. At the same time it is also a link to downloading.
  • Define type of documents that included to file and also its creation date. The output string has the following format:
  • the document's ID - SI for Sales Invoice, CN for Credit Note.
  • creation date - formatted as "dd-MMM-yyyy".
  • underscore sign as a separator between ID and date.
  • Example: SI_100903.
  • Description with range of included documents.
  • Shows count of documents in batch and range:
  • number of the first document for the reporting day - number of the last document for the reporting day
  • Example: Count: 17, Range: US265 - US281.
  • Total Amount: Total of amounts of all CTs included to batch file.
  • Example: - 1 050.00.
  • Imported: Status of batch: new or imported
  • Shown as a checkbox:
    • "checked" state of checkbox means imported status of batch,
    • "unchecked" state of checkbox means new batch which not imported yet into QB.
  • Should be set to "checked" by user manually after the successfull import of batch into QB.
