Introduction
Period management is a way to configure a period of time (e.g. the accounting period or a quarter of an organization). When the periods are configured, it is possible to see the summaries for each period in the "Client" files as well as in "Analysis & History". Moreover, these summaries can be used to produce reports and customiized lists in relation to those specific periods.
Add periods
In the software main menu, first click on "Configuration", then on " Periods".
The period management window will open, it is now possible to:
| |
A: Add, Edit/View or Remove periods. |
B: View the list of existing periods. |
By clicking on the button, the following window will appear:
