Before it is possible to make a new fiscal year period, you either need to import the legal accounting for the period or, alternatively, create a new fiscal year manually in the group. For further information, please see the guide New fiscal year for group consolidation.
To start consolidating, a fiscal year period needs to be created.
Click the button "New fiscal year period".
If the previous period is locked, an information box will appear stating that you must create a new fiscal year period to proceed. Press the button "New fiscal year period" to create a period.
A new window will appear. Select the fiscal period, period type and period for the consolidation. Please note that it is not recommended to mix different period types.
If a different period type than a year is chosen, and the last period is selected, it's possible to check the box for creating previous periods and a list of the periods that will be created is shown. Then click "Save".
Now that you have created a group financial statement proceed to part 2 to continue.
