This guide contains information on end-of-year processing for Attaché Accounts (NZ) as well as information about preparing for the new financial year.
Preparing for End-of-Year
⚠️Important: Preparing for NZ Accounts end-of-year 2025/26 processing contains all the pre-processing steps to do BEFORE performing end of year on each Attaché Accounts module. You MUST go through this article BEFORE starting your end of year processing in the steps below.
Once you've planned your Accounts end-of-year and done the preparation work, it's time to get processing.
If you are Period-Based, then you should have run an end of period for each period up until the final period which is also the end of year.
If you are Date-Based, you are not required to run end of period when reporting however you still have procedures to run for your reporting.
An end-of-year adds only a few additional steps to the regular end-of-period procedures.
In which company do I process EOY?
Once you have created a copy of your accounts data, that copy is the complete record of your 2024/25 financial year. Do not run EOY on that company.
You must run EOY on the same Accounts company (data) where you will enter transactions for the 2025/26 financial year.

After End of Year (NZ)
Despite your best efforts, there may be missed transactions or adjustments that need to be made after EOY has been processed. The following pages provide guidance for common transactions that need to be made after EOY.
Making adjustments to General Ledger
To enter adjustment journals in the 2024/25 general ledger:
Log in to your history 2024/25 company (general ledger).
Print P&L Balance Sheet (General Ledger, Reports, Financial, Standard Financial Reports, P&L Balance Sheet).
Check GL Balances have been updated.
Adjustments to the opening balances
To adjust opening balances in the 2025/26 general ledger:
Log in to your current company.
Choose Setups, General Ledger, Opening Balances, Enter Opening Balances and then choose either:
Maintain Balances — to manually adjust opening balances or;
Import Last Year Data — to import data from 2024/25 General Ledger.
Set the Adjust This Year Opening Balances check box to Yes and then choose Accept (F9).
Print the YTD General Ledger Trial Balance (General Ledger, Reports, Financial, Trial Balance) and ensure that the Last Year column is zero and that the debit and credit columns are equal.
Date-based posting to handle late-arriving invoices
After processing end of year, you will have two companies:
A copy of 2024/25 Accounts data.
Current data that you will continue processing for the 2025/26 financial year.
Supplier invoices for previous FY received in July
To process supplier invoices received in July that should be in the previous financial year, in your current data company:
Choose Suppliers, Transactions, Invoices, Create and enter the supplier invoices.
Print the GL postings for Suppliers, selecting the date range of the transactions.
Post transactions to the previous financial year history company
Because these transactions belong in the previous financial year's general ledger, you need to log in to the 2024/25 company and post to the General Ledger.
Log in to the history 2024/25 company and choose General Ledger, Transactions, Post from Other Modules.
Make sure the Period is 12.
Select From Other Company and choose your current data company from the list where you entered the invoice and select the date range of the transactions.
Adjust opening balances in the current financial year company.
Now that changes have been made to the 2024/25 General Ledger, you will need to adjust the opening balances of the Current (2025/26) General Ledger.
Before importing opening balances, print a P&L Balance Sheet (General Ledger, Reports, Financial, Standard Financial Reports).
Sign on or log in to Accounts-Current (2025/26) company and choose Setups, General Ledger, Opening Balances, Enter Opening Balances.
Select Import Last Year Data and choose the 2024/25 company from the list. Select Yes to adjust opening balances.
