Converting from Quickbooks to Goldenseal Accounting Software-- Year End Issues

QB Switch-- Year End Closeout

Unlike some other accounting programs, Goldenseal accounting software does not require any special action at the end of each month, quarter or year. You can continue to enter data without "closing the books" in any form.

If you want reports for a particular period, you can specify a date range, and Goldenseal will use only the records from that time period.

HINT-- It is often helpful to be able to view records from past years. The Goldenseal Find command gives you quick access to your data, even if you have records that number in the thousands, or tens of thousands.

Closing Accounts

If an account is no longer active, follow these steps:

Locate the account record.
Click in the Status field on the left side of the window, and enter Closed.
