G/L Period End Maintenance Screen

Overview

Note: Depending on how your system is set up, this desktop screen may also be available as a web screen. For more information, see the Web Screens Getting Started Guide or the help for Sage 300 web screens.

Use the G/L Period End Maintenance screen to:

  • Delete unneeded accounts, transaction details, and fiscal sets.
  • Reset the current batch number to 1.

Warning! Period-end maintenance permanently deletes information from General Ledger. Before performing period-end maintenance, back up your data.

You can perform period-end maintenance after creating a new year at the end of a fiscal year, or as needed.

  • All period-end maintenance activities are optional, and can be done at any time.
  • If G/L Security is turned on, note that period-end functions do not check account permissions. For example, you can delete inactive accounts, even if you do not have account permission.
