Closing year end

Thanks for all the information, it will certainly make my January close
much nicer.

Please excuse the thick head here! I have been reading on the list that
you can close and reopen a period. We have our CPA do our taxes
complete with yearend adjusting entries. So consequently I normally do
not close the previous year end until this is all done which is usually
not until the end of February. If I close the year and do the January
month end, can I reopen year end and enter the YEAJE's then close the
year again with out any blow outs with the amounts carried forward for
the new year? We are on 6.10.504 and unfortunately we are not on
SUPPORT.

You can close and then reopen December to post any adjusting entries and
then close the period again. The only issue is some of your opening
balances will be off in your January workpapers/reports.

Ed, have you ever tried this? Does it actually re roll the opening
Balance Sheet balances and replace the amounts? What does it do with
the Retained Earnings amounts? Unpost the previous and repost the new?

I do this every year. Our outside accountants are usually 3 months to get
me their final adjustments. I have closed and reopened the final period
several times and all beginning balances are corrected.

Yes I have done it every year.

R/E is adjusted and so are all the other opening balances. It works.
