Signature command

Product Help Banner.png

 

 

The Signature command allows an unlimited number of signatories to be shown on a Financial Statement.

The syntax is as follows:

=SIGNATURE("BS","#Prefix #FName #LName #Suffix") 

  • Type This can be either DR or BS.  It will pick up the officers who sign either the Directors Report, or the Balance Sheet.
  • Name parameter The parts of the name parameter specify the parts of the name that will be printed:
    • Prefix This picks up the Title field of the Contact
    • FName This picks up the First Name field of the Contact, or this will be just the initial if present
    • LName This picks up the Last Name field of the Contact
    • Suffix This picks up the Suffix field of the Contact

However, all the name parameters are replaced by the Name Override field, if present


When evaluated, it will render:
  
......................            ........................            ........................
Mr Partner A Msc                  Ms Partner B Bsc                    Dr Partner C PhD
 
......................            ........................            ..........................
Mr Partner D                      Ms Partner E                        Dr Partner F

 

Notes

  • The SIGNATURE() command acts as a replacement for commands like:
    • =AP("#bsig1") to print the first Balance Sheet signatory, or
    • =AP("#dirsig2") to print the second Directors Report signatory, or
    • =AP("#mrsig3") to print the third LLP Members Report signatory
  • Unlike these commands, all signatories are printed in one operation. Also you have more control over the format in which the names are printed.
  • When the SIGNATURE() command is used for the LLP Members Report signatories, use the "DR" form.
