A Few Rules and Hints about Mapping

 

1.  Do not map sub-totals or totals, except for those listed in point 2.

  For sub-totals and total lines, click on the “Omit” button after selecting each one.  This removes the items from the mapping list (if “Un-Mapped Only” has been selected).  Also, when the data is actually imported, this keeps SurvivalWare from thinking that you’ve left some line items un-mapped.  Otherwise, it would report a mapping error.

 

2.  Do map the following totals (these are used for data integrity checks):

 

ü Net Income from your P&L should be mapped to the Fort Knox  Net Income from G/L.

ü Total Assets from your Balance Sheet should be mapped to the Fort Knox  Total Assets from G/L.

ü Total Liabilities from your Balance Sheet should be mapped to the Fort Knox  Total Liabilities from G/L.

ü Total Equity from your Balance Sheet should be mapped to the Fort Knox  Total Equity from G/L.

 

3.   Net Income from your Balance Sheet is QuickBooks terminology for Current Year Earnings.  Make sure you map it to the appropriate Equity account.

 

4.    Click on the Un-mapped Only button to show just those line items that still need to be mapped.  Then as you map each line item, it disappears from the list on the left.  When there are no more line items, you are all done.

 

5.    Click on the Find button in the upper right to find a row to map to on the right.

 

 

 

 

 

The row you are looking for will be highlighted in bold.  SurvivalWare searches from the last item selected to the end of the list.  It will also look for line items that have been mapped to SurvivalWare rows.  First it searches through the SurvivalWare row names, and then any line items that have been mapped.  Scroll to the beginning of the list and click on a row at the top to re-start the search from the beginning.
