The kickout system can evaluate kickouts based on sum totals. It can be set to purposely skips areas where the sum for the member nets to zero. This prevents erroneous data from clogging up your kickout file. This is a setting that can be controlled via the “Data Process Control” settings tab, called “KickoutZeroSuppress” that when set to 1 will ignore those members that net to zero.
There is an unintended side affect of this feature. Supposing you have a scenario where you have a cost center kickout "CC.011.1010", but there are two accounts involved: “6000” and “5000”. The data amounts for each account are $-1,000 and $1,000 respectively.
In this scenario, the individual account lines will still kickout because of the cost center. However, the net total of the -1000 and +1000 net to zero for that cost center. Thus the kickout will be zero suppressed and will not display in the kickout report.
Set the KickoutZeroSuppress to 0 to view these types of kickouts.
