Importing Prior Year journal entries is not allowed through the Import Journals program. To get the journal imported you must use a Current Year, Period and Effective Date.
Once the journal is imported you can go into General Journal Entry/Proof or Budget Transfers and Amendments, select the journal entry, and use the Period option in the ribbon to change the Year/Period and Effective Date back to the prior year.
