A: The account balance in Kingdee KIS® International gets updated by journals generated automatically after saving invoices. But historical invoices are transactions performed before a company file is enabled, and will not generate journals in the system. Therefore, after entering the opening balances of customers and suppliers, you need to enter the opening balances of accounts receivable and accounts payable in the Opening Balance of Accounts interface. If foreign currency calculation has been set for accounts receivable and accounts payable, or accounts receivable and accounts payable have analysis items, the opening balance needs to be entered either by currency or by analysis item details.

A: Kingdee KIS® International provides the function of other receipts and other payments to satisfy this need. Take other payments for example. First, select a transfer-out account and currency in the form header, and select a transfer-in account and currency in the form body. Then, select a proper account like exchange gain and loss or bank charges in the form body and enter corresponding amount. If you use other receipts, the transfer-out and transfer-in accounts of other receipts are opposite to that of other payments, and the bank charges entered needs to be a negative number.

A: First, when setting accounts, check the Revaluation option for the foreign currency accounting items that need to be revaluated. Note: The profit and loss account cannot participate in revaluation. Then, click the Revaluation button on the main interface to access the revaluation function. Enter a revaluation date (usually balance sheet date) and adjustment exchange rate (end-of-period exchange rate). Then Kingdee KIS® International will automatically calculate and adjust the balance in base currency of accounts that have foreign currency balance and participated in revaluation by the set exchange rate

A: The cost of inventory in Kingdee KIS® International is calculated using the weighted moving average method. The average product stock cost will be recalculated during each stock-in. During stock-out, the cost of inventory which is calculated by average cost on the delivery date will be transferred to the cost of sales automatically, and journal entries will be generated automatically to update the inventory account balance. After the cost of sales is transferred, modifying previous forms may lead to recalculation of average costs, which will affect the inventory balance. Meanwhile, the journal entries corresponding to stock-out are not updated timely, and their costs are calculated according to the average cost before modification. Therefore, inconsistence between stock account balance and inventory balance occurs. To correct the inconsistent financial data, Kingdee KIS® International provides the “Recalculation for Cost of Sales” function to recalculate and update journal entries with cost differences. Note: This function is used before closing only.

A: Receiving customers’ deposits in advance is processed in the same way as prepaying suppliers. Here takes customers’ deposits as an example. First, enter the deposit received in advance in the Deposit field of a sales order, and select a bank account that receives the deposit. The amount entered will be automatically calculated into the linking account for advanced receipt in the system setup. Or, you can enter the deposit not associated with an order into the header of a sales receipt. When a sales invoice is issued, you can apply the deposit against the invoice receivable by selecting the second tab “Apply Deposit” of the sales invoice. Once the option “Apply Deposit” is checked, the Sales Invoice interface will automatically display the outstanding deposit recorded in the Deposit field of sales orders and sales receipts that have the same currency for this customer before the invoice date. Enter amount in the “Amt Applied” column of corresponding rows.

A: You can track order receipt/delivery status and invoicing status by “Performance Status Report of Sales     Orders” and “Performance Status Report of Purchase Orders”. Or, you can click Query > Relevant Form,     and locate all the source and target relevant forms of the item where the cursor stops in the relevant form     query interface.

A: When the currency of an invoice is a foreign currency, the amount can be settled in a purchase     payment by using base currency, and the system will automatically calculate the exchange gain and loss.     If you need to use another foreign currency to pay for the foreign currency bill, you need to convert the     foreign currency into the amount using the currency of the invoice via other receipts or other payments,     and then perform settlement using the currency of the invoice via a purchase payment form.

A: The form print and export templates of Kingdee KIS® International use the same Excel template. You can enter corresponding form template settings by clicking Setup > Print/Export Template in the main interface. Export the preset templates first, and modify them to your desired format in Microsoft Excel by inserting the information like pictures, texts, and formulas into the templates. As the information inserted needs to get values from corresponding fields in Kingdee KIS, you need to enter the formulas listed in the “Description” sheet into corresponding Excel cells of the exported template. After saving the templates, re-import them into Kingdee KIS for printing/exporting forms.

A: You can query customers’ account receivable and settlement info by selecting “Accounts Receivable Statement” from Sales Reports. Or, you can only filter the records whose form type is “Sales Invoice” by clicking the Customize button to access “Filter” setup interface. By using the “Export Setup” tab in the report custom interface, you can customize the format of exported reports. You can select customer info (like address and contact person) that needs to be displayed on the exported report header, and select the number of aging days in the footer to display the summarized outstanding AR within the aging days on the exported report. If you need to use the customer monthly statement in custom format, you need to click Export > Export to Customer, and then print or email them.

A: Yes. You can set the fields that need to be displayed and the column width by clicking the Display button in the form tool bar. But you cannot modify the default settings. Instead, you need to click New to save the new scheme. Upon application of the new scheme, Kingdee KIS® International will always remember the column width automatically after dragging the form body each time. When it is accessed the next time, the forms will be displayed in the last column width.

A: Kingdee KIS® International does not support importing transaction data from Microsoft Excel directly. But it supports quickly copying the data that is in the same format with the data in Kingdee KIS® International and edited properly in Microsoft Excel and pasting it to forms in Kingdee KIS system by using the function of Switch to Excel paste mode.

A: First, you need to check the Export multiple forms in list to Excel by sheet option in the Print/Export Template setup interface corresponding to the form/journal which you want to mass print/export. Then, filter the list of forms that need to be mass printed/exported in four centers like Sales Center and Accounting Center. Finally, in the tool bar, click Print > Print Form/Export > Form To Local to print multiple forms at one time, or save multiple form records in the same Microsoft Excel.
