My fiscal year (or calendar year) has advanced too far

Summary

How to manage a fiscal or calendar year advanced too far into the future in Sage 50 Accounting.

Resolution

Option 1:

  1. Restore a backup from before the year was advanced.
  2. Go to Setup, Settings, Company, System, and uncheck the box "Allow transactions in the future".
  3. Change the session date to post a transaction.
    • Don’t let the Session date go beyond the current fiscal or calendar year

Option 2:
