Important Microsoft Dynamics GP Year-End Procedures and Information to Assist You with Your Year-End!

Setting up your next financial year

To continue processing transactions for the new fiscal year you need to set up your next financial year in Dynamics GP. This needs to be done prior to this date, regardless of when you decide to complete your year-end.

To Setup Your Next Financial Year Follow These Steps:

Step 1: Go to Tools > Setup > Company > Financial Periods. If your New Year is not in the Year drop down box (e.g. 2019) enter that year. Ensure that the number of periods, the first day and last day are correct for the year and then select Calculate.

Step 2: Check that the begin date for each of the periods is correct.

Step 3: Change the Period Name from Period 1 to a more descriptive name (e.g.) July (if required).

Step 4: Select OK

Step 5: Now select the Tax Periods button and do the same for your tax year.
