Thank you Ralph;

The check list was great. A few more questions. please.

Current fiscal year still pertains to the year just finished , i.eg. Oct 31, 2009.??

I can create Nov (new fiscal year to post payables)
and still leave last year open and finish month of Oct.
no problems forseen, finsh year end, then run year end before sending to auditors, and use prior year to post their je's
(amortization etc.). I can use year end je's to post automatically to retained earnings. What is the value of year end adjustment je? Also, until I close the year of Oct 31, 2009, I can use the unpost, but once it is closed cannot use the unpost je's is that right. Have gl 9.0A not going to put in the service pack until old year done just in case it does something weird.

If you can think if anything I should be careful of, please let me know.

Thank you lots,
