We did a year end and everything seem to work well.
Client: It appears after I post everything all the batches into the new year nothing is being posted to the GL accounts. I checked the trial Balance and there is nothing posted to the accounts..

Hi Eva,

Is the client's "shortcut" (used to launch Adagio Ledger), pointing at the new year's data? I can assure you, posting works.

Hello Eva,

If the datapath is correct, another thing to check is the Period assigned to the posted entries.

Check the period using the Posting journal. You could also try printing the Trial Balance for Period 12.

It appears that when the batches were moved to reallocate the periods for some reason some of them got lost. Can I unpost all current subledger batches, archive them to store them then restore a previous copy of my GL from backup, post previous batches, retrieve archived batches and I they should have all data.
Is there any reason why retrieved batches that have come up with errors would not post when moved to a different period, then posted with no error message?

Hi Eva

Yes to the question in the first paragraph.

The most likely reason is that the original fiscal period is set to closed in the Fiscal Calendar tab of GL Profile.

So why didn't it work to copy them to a new period then post? If possibly there were a few transactions in the batch that were dated for the previous year, what's the best way to handle them?

Hi Eva,

Move all the transactions to a new batch, setting the date and period to the period you want to post them in. If there are transactions that you don't want posted to a specific period, the move those transactions into another batch. If there are transactions that should be posted to the prior year, then move them into another batch, archive it, then post it to the prior year using that function. You'll also want to post those transactions into the backup made before doing the year end.

There is an option in the company profile to post a batch with errors (normally a batch with errors will not post any transactions). The error transactions will be written to an error batch where they can be edited to deleted.

It's not clear from your post what "didn't work". As I said, we know that posting "works" in Adagio Ledger.
