How can I reverse or delete the opening balance of a company? GP 2010

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by

Hi,

We have several companies, and we moved to a new fiscal year. In an attempt to have opening balances, and move to the new year, I performed the closing on one of the companies. I have then been informed that the fixed assets depreciation wasn't done completely in other entities, we only did a GL entry to perform the depreciation on those companies. So we should finish that before we move on to the next company.
The thing is we have to close the first month of the year today. I cannot have an entity for which the balances have been transferred and others for which the balances have not, there are intercompany transactions affected. So I need to delete or reverse the transfer of balance for that one entity.

How can I perform that?

You input will be highly appreciated. Thank you.

    Hello,

    Journal Entry is best one to reverse your opening balances.  Pass reversal Journal Entry.

    Thanks much

    Hi @introvertie:

    My first concern is that you are closing and opening years without needing to.  Normally, when a company needs to change Fiscal Years you do not need to close years, but only run some routines in GP to change the Fiscal Periods.

    However, if you have already done those and run into issues then your best bet is to use SmartLists to find, or Inquiry to find the JE that was created for the YE closing.  You can find that in SmartList by looking for the Open Year (current year) period 0 entries.  I'm not 100% certain GP will let you reverse that entry in the usual manner, so you may have to export to Excel and then re-import the entry reversed or hand-key reverse it.

    Regardless, if you need any assistance please feel free to reach out.
