Budget amounts unexpectedly show for next year

Description of Issue
  • Budget amounts for next year are showing in Account Inquiry and should not be.
  • Next year's budget has not been created yet, but amounts are showing in Account Inquiry.
  • How can Post to Master be undone?
  • Post to Master was run for the new year after Year End Close instead of Budget Completion Journal.
Context

Account Inquiry

Post to Master for Reports

Cause

Post to Master was run for a Current Year projection instead of Budget Completion Journal.  Post to Master always posts to Next Year regardless of the Budget Year on the projection.

Resolution
  • Post to Master always posts to next year, so should only be run when soft posting next year's budget amounts.
  • Budget amounts for Next Year can be zeroed out by creating a new budget projection with all zero amounts and running Post to Master.
