Hello again,
Perhaps I missed earlier discussions about this, but is there a reason the Accounting Period is an attribute in the Preferences menu (and thus system-wide) rather than in the File Properties menu (as all the other company-specific items are)? Am I correct that every time I open a set of books with a different fiscal year, I have to go into Preferences to change the accounting period? If I don't do this, all the reports use the wrong start and end dates. This is nuts - I work with four different fiscal years here! A related issue is why the accounting period specifies a year at all. Surely it should just be the month and day, since an entity's fiscal period are the same dates every year (e.g. Sept 1 - Aug 31). I have the feeling I'm missing something basic about this..
