Hi there

I`m using Nav 2009 SP1

We need to do a posting in the previous financial period which had been closed. How do I go back into that perdiod, or open up the dates to post into the past financial period?

Thank you

    Please check this link, you need to open up the posting date restriction on user setup or on GL Setup but do need additional stpes if you post it to the closed period

    Hi QOliver,

    There are two places where you can add settings for accounting periods:

    General Ledger Setup

    User Setup

    You just need to post the entries in back date, there is no need to open any accounting period, system will check the date and mark those entries as prior year entries.

    If you post the entries in previous FY you will have to run the closing FY activity again.

    If you have run the close income statement and posted it and now you try to post any entries in back date system marks them as Prior-Year Entry.

    Hi Manish,

    This field Prior-Year Entry will work for entires from previous financial year, this field helps in future to find entries after year closing.

    But anyway to post something it is necessary to open period for posting in General and for user.
