If you want to do a year end make sure that you have done the following:
Printed all the account transactions - this can take a long
time, firstly run "Contract Housekeeping" and then
"Sort Trial Balance Index" (Option 1 or 2)
You also need to know your "Brought Forward/Loss Account

Next select the option "End of Year Update/Cleardown"
The ledger balance is checked and if not 0 it will not continue.
Once the "End of Year " is complete call Integrated Solutions to
