I've completed the company's accounts at 30th April and now want to close the year.

Can you please tell me the procedure for doing this. If I go to 'Tools', 'Period End', 'Year End', it tells me: 'The current program data is outside your financial year. If you continue it might cause discrepancies in your accounts'.

(I haven't posted any transactions since the year end).

The process expects you to have set the date to the last day of the financial year prior to starting it.

HI I WOULD LIKE TO START THE NEW YEAR WITHOUT DOING THE YEAR END. IS THAT POSSIBLE. BECAUSE IN THE MANUAL IT SAYS THAT YOU SHOULD DO THE YEAR END AND THEN START THE NEW FINANACIAL YEAR AND ITS A BIT CONFUSING. I DONT HAVE THE ACCOUNTANTS CORRECTIONS YET BUT I WOULD LIKE TO CONTINUE WITH THE NEW FINANCIAL YEAR.

You can post in the new year, but you will get an annoying warning with every transaction.
