Hi, Lulu,

Had you really intended to post to the YE Adjustment Period (period 14) or had you wanted to post to the specific period (sounds like you chose period 12)?

The 'Post to YE adjustment period' option on the 'Post to prior year' posting window is an optional function provided for those companies that choose to post adjustments to the prior year but not to have those adjustments affect a particular period net change (eg. affect period 3 or 12 of the prior year). To do this, selecting this option posts your AJE's to a special 'period 14'. (Fiscal years are either 12 or 13 periods.)

When you print the Trial Balance report there is also an option on the print window for you to choose to 'Include YE Adjustments'.

If you find that you really had not wanted to post to the YE Adjustment Period afterall, you are always able to create a batch of reversing entries and post those to the YE Adjustment Period. You would then need to repost the original entries to prior year while not selecting the option at all.

The YE Adjustment Period is an option that is what some companies desire but is not necessarily what all companies will want to use. When you're on the 'Post to prior year' window, select the Help button and link to the 'posting to prior year' topic. This topic (and the subsequent link to YE Adjustment Period) discuss the option more fully.
