Set up your fiscal year
The dates your reports and closing are based on.
A fiscal year tells Prospera Books which dates belong to which financial year. Reports, budgets and year-end closing all use it.
Open fiscal years
Type Fiscal Year in the search bar at the top of any screen and press Enter. Select Add Fiscal Year.
Name the year
Enter a Year Name, for example 2027.
Set the dates
Enter the Year Start Date and Year End Date. Most companies use 1 January to 31 December.
Link your companies
Under Companies, add each company that uses this year.
Save
Select Save. Create next year's fiscal year before the new year starts, so documents can be dated in it.
Good to know
- A short or long first year is allowed. Tick Is Short/Long Year when your first year is not twelve months.
