Accrual periods allow for reporting on the collective earned revenue across multiple sessions.
First, create accrual periods by selecting multiple sessions to group together for reporting purposes. Then, run the Camper Accrual Summary (By Accrual Period) report to generate your earned revenue per accrual period, i.e. all of those sessions combined.
For example, Camp Firewood runs camp sessions all throughout the entire calendar year. They’d like to generate earned revenue per quarter, so they create 4 accrual periods - "Q1," "Q2," "Q3," and "Q4." The "Q1" accrual period contains all sessions that are held January - March, while the "Q2" accrual period contains all sessions that are held April - June, so on and so forth.
First, navigate to the Financial Dashboard by clicking the Financial link in the top navigation bar.
Next, go "Camper Financial Tools" and select "Accrual Periods."
