New financial year


The new financial year page lets you view the opening balance, debit, credit and the corresponding closing balance for the previous financial year and carry forward the balance to the present financial year. You can also create manual entries for credit and debit for different sub ledgers to indicate the opening balance of the current financial year (see figure 1).
