Match Accounts

Use the Match Accounts screen to link an account in the current Accounting Year to one in the prior Accounting Year. Doing this gives you the ability to update the Beginning Balances with the prior-year ending balances of the matched account. On the same screen, you can also unlink accounts that are already matched with the prior-year accounts.

 

To access the Match Accounts screen:

• Click Manage Accounts in the Button Bar at the top of the screen
• Then click the Match Accounts button to open the screen.
