RE: [SYS21] Year End / Period End

JBA strongly suggests you never run the financial archiving routines in
their "Year-end Preparations & Procedures".
The Inventory year-end roll is OK.

There's one point of confusion that caused our year to double-roll the first
time we did it, too.
The prompt asks for "Current Year".  If at the end of this month, you were
to answer this with "03", the system will roll to 2004.

Just remember "Current Year" is the December year, and you should be OK.
