This configuration contains the financial information of the company. These settings impact the accounting aspect of the system.
General Ledger: This section contains the tax rates, labels and accounts specific to taxes and closures.
There are 4 tax levels controlled by customer records and products jointly (see invoicing products and customer records for details).
The calculation of tax B (if used) can include the amount of tax A (like the old Quebec method TVQ on top of the GST). If a check mark is enabled for the level, this method will be used.
(FOR QUEBEC USERS - note that in this example, level 1 to 9.975 is equivalent to level 2 to 9.5 with the bracket)
It is possible to lock fiscal periods to prevent a transaction from being added or modified. This option is especially used in a multi-user environment in the G/L following a reconciliation or closing of the books of a specific period. (ATTENTION: To add or modify an event in a locked period you MUST UNLOCK)

CHANGE OF FISCAL DATES
Normally fiscal dates can be modified when the general ledger is empty (NO TRANSACTION).
If transactions exist, it is possible to change current fiscal dates with a specialized tool with certain restrictions.
It is not recommended to make this change during peak hours because many things need to be changed.
To activate the tool, CLICK ON THE ORANGE BUTTON.
Once the function is activated you will be able to see the possible movement. You cannot move the window where there are transactions.
If all the periods are occupied. Then you will have to do a fiscal closure to empty periods before you can move the dates.
Use the FORWARD and BACKWARD buttons to choose the move and the correct dates.
USE WITH CAUTION PLEASE.

Income/Expenses/Inventory: This section contains the closing and transfer modes.
The detailed mode creates a transaction for each invoice (default).
The batch mode creates a transaction per date when multiple invoices are selected
The immediate mode closes and transfers the invoice immediately.
(ATTENTION: Immediate mode is now functional for sales so be careful if you have to correct your invoices)

Transit Accounts: Transit accounts are part of a method that aims to simplify bank reconciliation.
A transit account is a transitory account that receives transactions from payments while waiting for the actual bank deposit. (see the transit deposit option)
