The Internal Initial Account Balances screen facilitates the transition of internal account balances from one fiscal year to the next, providing users with a structured process for selecting categories, including or excluding accounts, and generating and reviewing detailed reports before final submission.
The last step in the end of the year rollover process is to roll the Trial Balance.
This step can take place after transactions have begun in the next fiscal year, but the Trial Balance will not be useful until account balances are rolled.
Once Initial Balances have been rolled, use the Trial Balance report and the Expenditure/Revenue Report to compare the ending balances of the current fiscal year to the next fiscal year. Both of these reports can be found under the Budgeting/General Ledger menu.
1. From the Setup menu, click Internal Initial Account Balances under the Rollover sub-heading.
