Entries with July dates are done within an unposted batch in July (ie period 7). On assessing the GL on 1st August a user opens this batch to include additional July entries. The prompt skips the period dialog box as oppose to Accpac Dos. A customer of mine was not awared that although he edited the transaction date 1/8/06 to 30/7/06, the batch now consisted of 2 periods. Perhaps Softrak can add any of the 2 features in order of preference:
1) Give an Alert prompt that this batch is for period 7.

2) Do not skip the period dialog box

Hi smhoon,

It is true that the data entry model for GL batches is different in Adagio as it is for Plus. Adagio has the Fiscal Period on a screen you must visit first before entering the account/amount details. When you say 'the prompt skips the period dialog bos', I assume you mean that the tab sequence did not force you to enter/change this value, whereas Plus includes this field in the sequence for the first entry.

As you are not restricted to keeping all entries in a batch for the same period (it's good practice, but not forced), an alert may not be the best way. I can suggest having the Period and the initial landing point when a new Batch Entry is created - would that address this concern?
