The order that Sage 100 modules are closed is very important. The period-end and year-end processes performed in one module often write data to another module, so to close modules out of order may cause damage to your data. Note: Before you begin any year-end closing procedure, ensure that you have a complete and verified back up of your data!
Modules should be closed in the following order:
Bill of Materials
Work Order
Bar Code
Purchase Order
Sales Order
Inventory Management
MRP
TimeCard
Electronic Reporting
Payroll (Note: You should make a copy of 2013 payroll before you close!)
Accounts Receivable
Accounts Payable
Job Cost
General Ledger
*If you are running modules not on this list or a 3rd party product, there may be special considerations involved in year-end closing. Please contact Pam Scott pam@oasisky.com or 502-429-6902 ext 221 and we will be glad to advise you on the best procedure for closing your Sage 100.
