Aim of snapshots
Snapshots are used to create different processing states within a period [freeze] and call them up again if required. The functionality makes it possible to run simulated computations [what if…]. Data status is backed up in the following dialogues:
- B/S Comparison
- LCF
- TB Transfer
Current Taxes \[incl. form dialogues and _Local GAAP – Tax Balance_ dialogue\]
Create new snapshot
Snapshots are managed in the Snapshots dialogue. Every processing state needs to have a description [once created it cannot be changed]. A new snapshot is created by clicking the [ ] button, this is confirmed in the dialogue header:

A table containing all existing snapshots can be viewed in the Snapshots dialogue. Every snapshot has an ID. A click on the recycle bin deletes the frozen processing state; it cannot be restored.

Click on the magnifying glass symbol [ ] to open a new subdialogue where the processing state of the selected snapshot can be viewed. Select the dialogues to be displayed and click the Show button – the dialogues will be opened in a read mode in a new tab of your browser.
