Overview

The Ratios tab within the Engagement settings displays all available ratios for general ledger analyses within the engagement. There are 2 types of ratios that can be displayed:

1. Library ratios: Ratios that were defined by the library your engagement is using.
2. Engagement ratios: Ratios that were created within your engagement — these may be promoted to the library-level for use across all engagements using that library.

Search for ratios

Enter the name of the ratio you want to find (in part or in full) in the search bar, then press enter/return on your keyboard, or select the magnifying glass icon ( ) in the search bar to conduct the search.

Use the chevron icon ( ) in line with the ratio name to expand the ratio you want to view. You will see the formula used in the ratio in read-only format.

Enable and disable ratios in MindBridge

If you do not want to include a ratio in your analysis, you can turn ratios on and off with the Enabled/Disabled toggles.

• Enabled: The ratio will be displayed on the Ratios dashboard of any general ledger analysis within the engagement.
• Disabled: The ratio will be hidden from view in all analyses within the engagement.
