Defining fields

About this task

ACIF uses fields to determine where to locate index values. For the sample income statement report, define five fields:
  • A field that instructs ACIF to locate statement date values beginning in column 73 of the record following the TRIGGER1 record.
  • A field that instructs ACIF to locate income statement number values beginning in column 20 of the TRIGGER2 record.
  • A field that instructs ACIF to locate total income values beginning in column 46 of the TRIGGER3 record.
  • A field that instructs ACIF to locate type of income values beginning in column 22 of the TRIGGER4 record.
  • A field that instructs ACIF to locate subtotal values beginning in column 17 of the TRIGGER5 record.
