Rounding differences are calculated by comparing key amounts in the Balance Sheet, Income Statement, and Statement of Cash Flow. Rounding makes the following comparisons:
Caseware net income (NETINC)
[Calculated by combining all Caseware Trial Balance accounts with Income Statement Type]
Total liabilities and equity in the Jazzit Balance sheet

When the Financial Statements are set to public sector in Home menu > Client Profile the Balance sheet becomes a Statement of Financial Position. The rounding setup is different for this statement. Please see this page for more information.
Income Statement
The Income statement rounding difference is calculated by comparing the Net Income as calculated by the Jazzit Income statement with the Net Income as calculated by Caseware. The current year net income as calculated by Caseware can be found at the bottom right of the Caseware window.
Caseware Net Income is calculated by combining every Caseware Trial Balance account that has their type set to Income Statement. The account type should be set automatically to the correct type when the account is mapped using the Jazzit Map Structure.
Balance sheet rounding simply checks to see if the Jazzit Balance sheet is balanced in the conventional accounting sense.
A Balance sheet by map draft can be used to assist a preparer in resolving a material balance sheet rounding difference.
Statement of Cash flows
Statement of Cash flows compares the Cash - end of year with Cash consists of balance.

The Cash consists of section will toggle interchangeably with the Cash note, if the Cash note is present in the Jazzit Financial Statements. The variance column in the Draft Balance Sheet can be used to help reconcile the rounding difference in the Cash Flow statement.
