The report displays the percentage of all transactions that are considered exceptional.
As part of the analysis of your accounting data, Mamut Validis looks at each individual transaction within a nominal account and identifies any credit or debit values which are exceptionally large, when compared to the other values within the account, or those that fall outside of the normal range. For example, if typical sales are around £500 per transaction a single sale of £1000 would be identified as exceptional.
The Exceptional Values report shows:
The percentage of all transactions that are considered exceptional.
The number of exceptional transactions in your accounting data.
For each nominal account containing exceptional transactions, a chart illustrating the transactions that fall outside of the usual range.
