General Ledger Calendar

The DATABUILD for Windows Accounting System allows the recording and reporting of three financial years concurrently, and thus allows retrospective posting to the previous year.

You should only change the Allow Posting From dates and no other Dates above.  These other dates are set at installation time and automatically when the GL Year End closure is performed.  Refer to the How Do I notes relating to GL Year End.

 

Note:  if a GL Year end closure has not been performed and you need to report on a month end basis in the New year, then set the Next Year End and Allow Posting Until dates in the GL Dates screen to the required month end date, e.g. 31/07/2000 then rebuild the dates in the Dates screen.  Go to GL Reports and choose Rebuild Data and perform a Full Rebuild or Current & Next Year.  Once the desired reports have been printed, change these temporary dates back to the normal Year End date.
