Use this screen to set up the sequence for a variance on a financial report. Typically, you use the G/L Format File Maintenance - Detail/Total screen to set up sequences for variances between two adjacent sequences; however, if the variance you want to calculate is between two disparate sequences on the report, use this screen.

Access this screen by indicating that you want to create a variance record for a report format on the G/L Format File Maintenance - Launch screen.
