Year end simplicity?

Hi, for the first time, I am managing our year end and self assessment.( gulp).
For our year end I have simply followed other help: Setup > Financial Year > Start a new financial year

I note there is a Journal Memo in Solar for each year end which shows depreciation (among other things) for Motor Vehicles, Plant ad Fixtures. Does anyone have any simple guidance I could use to calculate these figures?

Was the Journal Memo automatically generated or has it been manually added? I guess the latter as the title is Year End Adjustment.

Question: can anyone

Hi Gillian,

Sorry I cannot help you calculate the depreciation figure but there are standard methods which you can find on the internet. Yes, the year end procedure in Solar Accounts (menu Setup > Financial Year > Start a new financial year) will create a new journal entry called End of Year Adjustment. However, before you perform this procedure you will need to enter depreciation charges as described here:
