Administration 180: Year End CFR Report


As part of the year end process schools will need to run a CFR return in 24/25 to make sure balances match the Year End Trial Balance, this is in the Routines section. Prior to running the return, please ensure ledger codes are mapped as some may have lost their mapping in the transfer to Bromcom.

  • To do this, go to: Maintenance, CFR Code Mapping and click on validation report (unmapped ledger codes should be automatically selected) and then Preview.
  • Any ledger code with an amount in the Actual column will need mapping, to do this check the CFR codes in DCC School Finance: Consistent Financial Reporting for Schools – Support for schools and settings then, in CFR Code Mapping, select the CFR code on the left and the ledger code on the right then click on Add.
  • If your school has additional funds e.g. G122/G121, ensure all the codes you have mapped for Fund 01 are also mapped for Funds 03/04 etc as the validation report will count the ledger code as mapped and it may not be for the additional funds. To do this in the CFR Code Mapping, click on each CFR code and you will see a list of mapped ledger codes. Add any of the additional funds ledger codes with hyphen 03/04 etc.
  • Run the CFR Return: +Preliminary CFR and complete the contacts box, save and continue. Click the Balances button. The Bfwd figure in B01 is the total of all funds, you can click in that cell and amend by the Capital Bfwd, adding that figure to B05. The Actual figures should match your Trial Balances for your Cfwd. If not, investigate and speak to your finance officer if you require assistance.
  • Click on the Table Details Report, Export, Format to PDF, De-select Save DMS copy, Done. This can then be given to governors along with your other year end reports.

Transactions under Manage codes G121 and G122 will be mapped using normal CFR code mapping in the same way as any other transactions.
