AM192


AM192 - Short Year Close

**Form Purpose
Run Short Year Close (AM192) when the fiscal year for your company has been
changed, resulting in a year that is less than 12 months. Run this program
instead of the normal period-end program (AM190).

Before you run this program, make sure that the following steps have been
performed:

- You have released all asset records (AM170).

- You have calculated the current period depreciation (AM180).

- You have determined whether the 40tax rule applies to you (AM220), and if
so, you have adjusted your tax books accordingly (AM125).

- You have run all the reports to make sure your asset entries are accurate
and made any corrections necessary.

- You have backed up your data (strongly recommended).

Once you run AM192 with the Release option set to Yes, AM192 is irreversible,
which is why you should back up your data before running the program. Run
AM192 with the Release option turned to No first to check the results without
posting them.

You must specify either a company or company group and at least one book on
which to run this report. You can select up to 5 books, and for each book,
that you select, you must specify a new year end date.

**More Information
After you run AM192, perform the following steps:

1. Run your year-end reports (you cannot run them once the year is closed).

2. Back up your data (strongly recommended).

3. Close the year, using Year End Close (AM195).
