Open a New Period

You can create and open a new accounting period for the active company or all companies.

Prerequisite: To create a new accounting period, your currently active period must be the latest one.

To create and open a new accounting period:

  1. In the Navigation pane, select Utilities > Period > Period Setup.
  2. If Vantagepoint is configured to support multiple companies, do one of the following:
    • To open the new period for all companies, select All Companies.
    • To open the new period for the currently active company only, select Active Company.
  3. If the default dates for the new accounting period or the fiscal year are not correct, specify new ones.
    If you use multiple companies, these dates apply to all companies for this period, even if you open the period for the currently active company only.
  4. Click Save.
  5. In response to the confirmation prompt, click Yes.
    Vantagepoint creates the new period and opens it for your active company. If you use multiple companies, the new period is marked as open or closed for the other companies, based on your choice in step 2.
