Year End - Undo previous close

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 75

Hi,

I've already done year end, however, I've had essential journals i've posted in period 12 since then.  When I re run financial year close, where you enter the voucher reference, underneath it there's a toggle called 'Undo previous close', now should this be on 'no' or 'yes'.  As if I click on 'no' does that mean all of the previous P&L entries are transferred again to period 13 and rolled forward?  Should it be on 'yes' so everything is re done together old and new?  However in General Ledger > LedgerSetup> General ledger parameters, I've selected 'yes' Delete close-of-year transactions during transfer', which should delete opening transactions if i wanted to rerun the financial year close process.  I just need confirmation of what it will do really.

Thanks

    Hi Sallyann,

    Best way to set the parameter as "Yes" so that if you have run the closing process for the same period earlier then system will recalculate the balances again based on changes. Other wise system will not post any difference.

    Hi Sallyann T,

    Setting the parameter 'delete close of year transactions' to yes is against most accounting regulations I am aware of because if you re-run the year end close, the previous voucher will really be deleted from you system. If the parameter says 'no' then only the changes made in the previous year will be re-considered in the year end closing process. The disadvantage of doing that is of course that you will have multiple vouchers created.

    Best regards,

    Ludwig

    So i need both parameters to be selected on 'No'?

    General Ledger >  Ledger Setup > General ledger parameters

    ‘Delete close-of-year transactions during transfer' you want this selected to 'No'

    And

    Click 'run financial close' at top of form, select the entity and click OK

    Enter parameters top right

    Financial year                 Voucher

    2019                              YELCD-V.1

    Period name               Undo previous close

    Period 13                        'No'

    Thanks

    Good Morning Sallyann T,

    Personally, I would select:

    ‘Delete close-of-year transactions during transfer' : NO

    I don't have a NO/YES parameter to 'run financial close'.

    Do you refer to this selection field shown in the next screenprint or something else?
