Duplicate period

To correct the problem with the duplicate period, take the following steps. You may back up the client data first by going to
File
, then
Backup
.
  1. Make a copy of the client by going to
    File
    , then
    Save As
    . Then close the newly created client so that no clients are open in the application.
  2. Select
    Help
    , then
    Repair
    . Depending on your security configuration, you may be prompted to enter the master password before you can open the
    Repair
     dialog.
  3. Highlight the original client in the list (not the copy created in Step 1) and select
    Decompress Client
    .
  4. Verify that the correct Client ID is displayed in the
    Client ID
     field.
  5. Select the
    Delete most recent year-end files button
    .
  6. Select
    Yes
     to acknowledge the deletion of the most recent year end, then choose
    Done
     twice to leave the
    Repair
     dialog.
  7. Open the Client.
  8. Select
    File
    , then
    Select Period to Process
     and select the
    Close to Next Year
     button.
If assets were already entered in the current year, they’ll need to be copied from the client created in Step 1 by taking the following steps.
  1. Open the client that was created in the previous step 1.
  2. Select the
    In Service
     heading in the
    Asset List
     window. All of the assets placed in service in the current year will appear sequentially in the asset list.
  3. Highlight all the current year additions by selecting the 1st asset placed in service in the current year, holding down the Shift key on your keyboard and choosing the last asset.
  4. Select
    Edit
    , then
    Copy Asset
    .
  5. Open the original client, access the activity, select
    Edit
    , then
    Paste Asset
    . If assets need to be copied from multiple activities, repeat steps 2 – 5 for each activity. In addition, only 1,000 assets can be copied at once. If more than 1,000 assets need to be copied from any activity, they must be copied in groups of 1,000 or fewer assets.
