pencil-small Technical Documentation: Refer to KFS technical documentation for more information regarding database queries, batch processes and reporting output format possibilities. Report scheduling and archiving functionality is out of scope as of this publication. Other report types falling under the umbrella of KFS reports, such as Monthly Reports, Operating Statement, Labor Detail, Financial Position, Statement of Activities, Balance Inquiries (through the Kuali Nervous System module) and ad hoc reporting generation capabilities are not included in the KFS, but are configurable as institution-specific additions to these standard reports.

Standard reports are made up of three main sections:

• Header Information: The header contains information concerning the identification of the report and management of the account (for example, the name of the fiscal officer, organization, responsibility, account number, and the fiscal period of the report).

• Report ID: The report ID is a unique ID assigned to each of the standard reports.

• Column Headings: The column headings identify the contents of the columns directly below them.

• Content: The report is separated into sections identifying the content (or data displayed therein) of each table (for example, tables might include columns for revenues, expenditures, assets, liabilities, fund balances, and rows for subtotals and totals).

Depending on the type of report and your institution's configuration, the report can be viewed, printed, and saved for your records and future reference. The native format (indicated by corresponding file extension) of the report may be viewable with compatible software, such as Text (.TXT), Portable document Format (.PDF), MS Word (.DOC), MS Excel (.XLS) or Comma Separated Values (.CSV).
