Year end date in Sage is 2007!! How do I sort?
Permalink Closed

Hi

I have just taken over doing the books and the start date for the year showing in Sage is December 2007.   Yes you read it correctly - 2007!

The customer has used the same Accountant for years and they dont seem bothered. They dont update the book-keeper with year opening balances etc. No accrual/repayments are keyed by the book-keeper - just purchase invoices, sales, Bank rec and VAT returns.

It is driving me mad though as every time I key anything it says it is outside the year end!

How can I sort this?

Thanks in advance

Chesh

Just close down each subsequent year from the one that's open, until you are up to date - taking a backup first. It's on the Tools menu, Period End --> Year End. I don't see any reason Sage will prevent you from doing that.

I'd be inclined to ask the accountant for the opening balances for the current year, as well - keeping on at them if they don't seem interested, until they give you them - and update Sage accordingly.
