Processing End of Month / EOFY Process

The first steps of the EOFY process are the same as your standard End of Month process.  Complete these steps as usual until you reach the Files Update process. At this screen, ensure Clear Year to Date (YTD) Data is ticked. If this is not automatically ticked, please contact Rockend Support.

NOTE: You should not do anything here; you are simply checking that Clear Year to Date is ticked.

IMPORTANT: If you run your End of Month process and Files Update prior to 1^st July, do not complete another Files Update on 1^st July, as this will compromise your history. You have already closed off the month of June. If you closed off before the 1^st July, your auditors may require you to create a Current Backup renamed to EOFY 30 June YYYY, complete a successful bank reconciliation including all transactions on your bank statement and print all reports on 1^st July. For further instructions on what to do if you ran the End of Month process & Files Update Prior to 1 July contact Rockend Support.
