Hello Linda,

What process do you follow to "close your year"? Do you create a new chart of accounts? (some people do). That's the ONLY way that your account types might have changed. Accounts cannot be balance sheet accounts in one year and P&L accounts in another unless they are in different data sets. Sorry.

Is the issue really only what happened when you posted to the prior year? I would post a reversing entry to the prior year and then change the account types, making sure that your trial balance, balance sheet and income statement are printing the way you want.

BTW - year end in Ledger V9.0A is MUCH simpler. Just select "open new fiscal year" and keep on going. Subledger batches are automatically assigned to the correct fiscal year when they are retrieved.
