Hi, My name is Milinda Udani. I am a senior accountant. I need help with creating a trial balance for FCL who sends us their financials by Dr. and Cr. My job is to create a trial balance and transfer FCL's GL to my company's GL. I am attaching a sample file here. I need a macro which transfer and match the FCL GL from FCL mapping where all the coding is provided with their financial and bring it to the trial balance tab. here is my thought process

1) I have total 4 tabs(1)JE (where I book the entry), (2) FCL-Trial balance (3)FCL-Financial (4)FCL Mapping
2) I need tab 2(Trial balance) where all the calculation happens
3) FCL-financial is provided by the company every month
4) FCL-mapping is any new coding is added from monthly financial

Also, once the monthly trial balance is created. I also want a macro where it create a new blank template where previous month's trial balance number is copied and paste as value.

I will greatly appreciate a help with macro.

  • F2 as Closing Balance
  • H2 as Opening Balance
  • I2 as Activity.
Once the worksheets are corrected, created and filled then attach the expected correct workbook saved as binary format .xlsb …​
 
Without knowing the previous month closing balance it could be achieved computing a reverse balance​
if only JE worksheet is correct like accordingly FCL Mapping as well but,​
according to your attachment, two JE accounts are missing in FCL Mapping !​
As accoutancy is nothing but accuracy, if you really are an accoutant then that's easy for you to explain us​
step by step what to do according to the poor worksheets design …​
