Accounting Year End

Getting There: Accessing this application is done by double clicking on the AccountingYear End icon in the Accounting main menu.



Purpose: Accounting Year End is used to perform all the tasks required to end the current fiscal year and start the next year. Since ConCentRICs Accounting is an on-line, real time system, the year end process is very simple. All of the real accounting work takes place at the source when the accounting transactions are originally entered. These transactions are placed in journals which should be reviewed daily. This not only audits the transactions and monitors the work being done but it also allows you to spot any problems as they occur and not weeks later. Using the Accounting Month End application, the entire work for each month is reviewed and analyzed during the year. So when it comes time to Year End, it really is nothing more than basically moving the appropriate information from the current year to the next fiscal year.

HINT: You can position your mouse pointer over any of the icons below to see a brief text-only description on that application.
