Adagio Support Tip Of The Month: Posting to a Prior Year
Question: We are mid way through the year and I have discovered that there is an entry that should have been done in the prior year. Can I go back and input it into the previous year, and if so, can I re-close the year with any changes updated in retained earnings?
Answer: It is possible in Adagio Ledger to post a transaction directly to the Prior Year, without the need to re-open the year. If any accounts are Income/Expense accounts, the Retained Earnings will be updated accordingly, automatically.
Softrak has a number of short videos on their website or from YouTube about running particular processes in Adagio. Here is a link to a short four minute video for closing the year in Ledger, and how to handle entries that need to be posted to the prior year.
