The system is operating as designed. It's important to remember that once you begin a new year, the data from the old year and the data from the new year are not linked in any way. Once you have begun a new year, making a change to the old year will have no effect on the new year unless and until you select Update Starting Balances.The Update Starting Balances utility compares the ending balances from the old year to the beginning balances in the new year. Update Starting Balances will update a particular account's beginning balance if the account names match exactly. The account number doesn't matter.
quote:
From the Financial Navigator Help System:Updating Starting Balances
FN’s Update Starting Balances utility enables you to update the new year’s data files after entering data in the previous year’s data files.
Accounts created in the new year, but do not exist in the earlier year, will not be affected. Similarly, accounts created in the earlier year, after the new year’s data files have been created, will not affect any accounts in the new year.
The problem arises when different account names are used in the two years.
