GL36.1 - Fiscal Year Mapping

**Form Purpose
Use Fiscal Year Mapping (GL36.1) to map the fiscal calendar of a company to
that of a reporting company with a different fiscal calendar.

Run this program to complement GL130 (Create Chart Map), which maps the chart
of accounts of a posting (From) company to the chart of accounts of a
reporting (To) company with a different chart of accounts, and GL35.1 (Chart
Map maintenance), which enables you to fine-tune the resulting chart map.

**More Information
To post balances from all the posting companies to the reporting company to
which they are mapped, run GL199 (Period Closing) on each posting (From)
company, then run GL135 (Intercompany Chart Map Posting) on each posting
company. After you have run GL135 on all the posting companies that are mapped
to the reporting company, run GL190 (Journal Posting) on the reporting
company.
