Description of Issue
- Site is operating in a new fiscal year and has not gone through the Year End Close process.
- GL Settings or Roll Accounting Period shows Current Year with period 13.
- User enters a new transaction for last year, which is still open, and it defaults to period 12.
Context
Purchase Order Entry
General Journal Entry
Cause
- Default Year/Period setting is what determines what defaults on an entry.
- Current Year setting is just an indication of how far the months have been closed.
- Journal Number Control is not designed to have an effective date range for period 13 so the system will not recognize a certain date as being in Period 13 automatically.
Resolution
- Entries for last year will not default to period 13 until your site has run through the Year End Close process and it is no longer the Current Year.
- Users can manually enter period 13.
