Reconcile an imported study

Check an imported model against its source before you trust it.

An import saves the typing; reconciliation is the part that protects you. Work through this checklist before you present anything built on an imported model.

1. 1

   Reconcile the totals

   Compare the totals on "Revenue" and "Costs" with the source document's totals. A mismatch means a line was dropped, excluded or double-counted.

2. 2

   Confirm the site inputs

   Check "Site & project" on the "Start" sheet: the development type, site area, gross floor area, total units, start date and duration.

3. 3

   Set the GST method

   Open "Preferences" and set "GST treatment" to the method that applies to the deal.

4. 4

   Rebuild the finance

5. 5

   Check the timing

6. 6

   Compare the results
