Purge Transactions

[hmgarrett]

I am trying to rebuild an existing company as to change the accounting periods. I am pleased so far with the process but eveidently I didn't go back far enough (beginning balance problem). Is there a way to purge (delete) these transactions or would it just be better to start over?

Or maybe I can just go back and export using the correct dates and re-import.

The help file is pretty vague on what dates to use. It basically says "to set the beginning date back several years to access all your data". I would prefer some more definite instructions but I didn't even try this on my first attempt.

If your start date of the new company file is 1/1/05 then you want the final balances as of 12/31/04.

You can change the beginning balances any time you want. Go to Maintain>>Chart of accounts and hit the beginning balances button.
