I had an interesting one yesterday that is related to this question.

I upgraded a client from Ledger 8.1A to Ledger 9.0B. They are on a 52/53 week fiscal year. The current year runs from 1/3/09 to 1/2/10. When the data converted, the current year was given the name "2010", which it obviously is not, although I understand from the discussion above why it did that.

So I tried to convert again, but this time I temporarily changed the last period ending date to 12/31/09 before converting. When the data converted, the current year was given the name "2009A", and the prior year was called "2009".

So I tried again, this time also changing the start of period 1 to 1/1/09 before converting. Unfortunately, it did not change the results.

What could I have done to force the conversion to treat the current year as "2009" and the prior year as "2008"?
