GL500 - Fiscal Year Change

GL500 (Fiscal Year Change) allows you to change the value of the current
accounting period and fiscal year for your Lawson General Ledger company. All
account balances, transaction history, and budget information are adjusted to
correspond with the new accounting period and fiscal year.

You should run all financial statements and back up the database before you
run this program. After you run the program, you must rebuild consolidated
account balances. Then, run the new financial statements and compare them to
the statements produced before the  change. Finally, verify that the
period-end dates assigned in the Calendar form tab of GL10.1 (Company) are
appropriate.
