1What it is and why
| What it is | A public sector inquiry that determines cash positions for financial dimension sets that contain self-balancing dimensions. |
|---|---|
| What you do here | Used to show the beginning cash balance, receipts, disbursements, and interfund transfers that lead to an ending balance, and then subtract budget reservations, encumbrances, or pre-encumbrances to get an unencumbered balance. |
| Example | Run the inquiry for a date interval and a financial dimension set, and suppress accounts that have all zero balances. |
