Reports & Exports
This section shows you how to produce, check and export every SYSCOHADA statement for your company: general ledger, trial balance, balance sheet, income statement, TFT, TVCP, liasse with notes and the regulatory FEC export.
Choosing the right statement
Section titled “Choosing the right statement”Statements go from detail to summary:
- the general ledger details every entry, account by account;
- the trial balance gives the balance of each account over a period;
- the financial statements group these balances into the standard SYSCOHADA tables (balance sheet, income statement, cash flows, equity, notes).
When an amount in the trial balance looks surprising, the account’s general ledger gives the detail.
| Statement | Level of detail | Typical use |
|---|---|---|
| General ledger | Entry by entry, per account | Entry verification, audit, matching |
| Trial balance | Debit/credit balances per account | Pre-closing check, overall view |
| SYSCOHADA balance sheet | Consolidated Assets / Liabilities | Annual closing, bank presentation |
| Income statement | Expenses / Revenue by nature | Fiscal year performance, margin ratios |
| TFT | OHADA cash flows | Revised SYSCOHADA cash flow statement |
| TVCP | Changes in equity | Equity tracking N vs N-1 |
| Liasse & notes | 35 notes and their sub-notes | Full annual accounts, tax liasse |
| FEC export | Entries in the regulatory format | DGI tax audit, statutory auditor |
| Export centre | Every file produced | Download, share, regenerate |
The TFT (Statement of Cash Flows) is the cash flow statement of revised SYSCOHADA: it replaces the former TAFIRE and classifies flows into operating, investing and financing. The TVCP (Statement of Changes in Equity) explains how equity changes from one year to the next. The notes detail the summary statements; SynkriaOps fills them from your entries.
The FEC (Fichier des Écritures Comptables, Accounting Entries File) contains every posted entry of a closed or reopened fiscal year, in an 18-column text file. It is the file the tax authority asks for during an audit, and the one the statutory auditor uses.
Every file you generate (FEC, statements, general ledger, trial balance, bulk invoices) ends up in the export centre, with its retention period.

- Trial balance: check the balance and any unusual balances.
