RE: Problem transferring account balances for new year

[vincent.byrne@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

The replies you have received already suggest that you are using V6.
If you happen to be on BPCS CD (as we are) when running GLD900 Year End
Close you have to fill in the following field:-

Number Years to Retain Journal          0=no records retained,            
                                                                1=current,
2=current and previous.  

You can therefore determine each year how many years Journals to retain
online.

It would be very difficult to keep the GL files in Sync and keep the G/L
Books correct and balanced for a Financial Year if records are purged using
any other method.

Does V6 not have a similar feature ?

Additional Information for BPCS CD Users
You can actually enter in a Number of Years in GLD900 other than the 0, 1 or
2 as mentioned on the screen or in the help text and it will work correctly.
e.g. if you wish to retain journals online for say 6 years then enter 6 on
this screen each year when GLD900 is being run. Journals from prior years
can be accessed in the usual way.

        Does anybody know of or have program to purge GL records?  What are
the
        ramifications of purging previous years records?
