Open a New Fiscal Year in the French Version

Before you can post in a fiscal year, you must open the fiscal year and define its accounting periods.

To open a new fiscal year

5. Choose the OK button.

The accounting periods are created, and the result is shown. The Starting Date field and the Name field are filled in with the name of the month from the starting date.

After the last period in the fiscal year, an accounting period is inserted with the New Fiscal Year field selected.
