How To Mark a Fiscal Year as Historical
The following topic shows how to mark a Fiscal Year as Historical.
Years designated as Historical will not display in Fiscal Year dropdown menus throughout JobBOSS2.
- In the Navigation Sidebar, click the Settings button.
- Open the System drop down menu and select Company Maintenance.
- Click Fiscal Year Settings (located at the top of the page.)
- In the Select Fiscal Year Grid, select the year that should be marked as Historical.
- Under the Fiscal Year Detail section, place a check in the Historical Year box.
- If the year being marked as Historical is the one that is presently marked as Current, the system automatically makes the first “future” year the new Current year.
- In the image included above, year “20BB” would become the new Current year.
- This designation can be removed / replaced as often as desired for fiscal years posted within JobBOSS2 after accounting has been implemented.
- This designation cannot be removed after accounting has been implemented for years marked as historical before the Accounting Setup Complete button is clicked.
- If the year being marked as Historical is the one that is presently marked as Current, the system automatically makes the first “future” year the new Current year.
