Balance Sheet Accounts Doubled after YE Close

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

We recently preformed YE on 3/31/13 for 2012.

The balance sheet accounts have doubled.  Has anyone seen this before and know how to resolve this?

    RE: Balance Sheet Accounts Doubled after YE Close

    Donnette,

    I've had some strange things happen at year-end, like it closed to the wrong year. It skipped 2012 entirely and posted the balances to 2013. Odd, but easy to fix.

    You may simply need to edit the GL20000 and possibly the GL30000 table. I have only had to edit the GL20000 table because it was on abnormal for the 'new' year.

    If the beginning balances do not equal the ending balances, go into the table and change the amounts for period 0 for your new year to whatever the balances should be.

    There's always a lot of speculation as to the 'why', but my answer has always been to modify the table. Fortunately, the same thing has not happened for the same client more that once in 20 years.

    It has always been an odd thing, but GL problems are typically easy to fix because there are only two or three tables involved in the close.

    Kind regards

    Leslie
