• If the reporting year is set to the last year, you can choose to purge the current (last) year or prior years. If the reporting year is not the last year, you can only purge prior years.
• You should purge the last year only if you want to import and setup the year from the beginning. For example, you imported the balances, assigned accounts to groups, created adjusting entries, and classified fund balance and net position. Then you later determine that you imported the data incorrectly and want to start the process from the beginning.
