Hi Sam,

You can use the Nominal record import template (normally in C:\Program Files\Sage\Accounts\Import Templates) and only populate the Refn (Nominal Code) and Prior Year Month 1 to Prior Year Month 12 columns. Alternatively, you can key the figures in on the Nominal Record Details tab.

As always, take a backup first!

Regards,

P.S. Forgot to say, enter everything as positive values - don't enter Sales items as negatives to denote credits. Sage enters debit or credit depending on the COA section the nominal code is assigned to.

Keying them is tedious to say the least, well worth doing an import, especially if you have the numbers in a spreadsheet already.

 

Standard field mappings are here.

Can't reiterate enough to do your backups first, saved me on my first import attempt after I keyed the total invoice amount instead vat amount on a sales invoice date dump with 500+ invoices.

Thoughts are my own/not to be regarded as official advice,which should be sought from a suitably qualified Accountant.
