Your First Month's Activity

After you have placed your first month's opening balances into the system, the next step is to transfer your activity data for that period into the general ledger as well. This procedure is described in: End Of Period Data Transfers.

What do I do if I don't have a trial balance for the end of my financial year, or I don't want to wait until reaching this point?

The procedure is essentially the same. You still need to determine which year you should be in, before you enter your opening balances for that month. Any opening balances you have entered in CAPITAL Office to bring your individual customer, supplier and cash book accounts up to date, should be for the month prior to the month you intend to enter your opening balances in the general ledger.
