Creating business periods for a year

The process of creating Business Periods differs from how new records are normally created in maintenance forms. Business periods can be created for one period (usually a week) or an entire year.

1. In Head Office > Maintenance, open Business Periods.
2. Click Create.
3. Click Period Generation.
4. Select the start date to generate periods from. This date must be earlier or later than any existing periods, and periods generated cannot overlap with existing periods.
5. Select the Number of Periods to generate. Periods can be generated for any number of weeks. To generate periods for an entire year, enter 52 weeks.
6. Click the Generate button.
