Thank you for your interest in Solar Accounts. I'm not sure exactly what you mean by 'set it to previous date' - does this mean you want to start with an old financial year and then move to the current financial year?

Solar Accounts allows you to create a new financial year whose start date is after the start date of the previous financial year. So for example, if your first financial year starts on August 1, 2006 you can create another financial year that starts May 1, 2007. It also allows you to 'revert' to the previous year - in this case you could revert back to the "August 1, 2006" year. However, you cannot 'revert' beyond the initial year start date.

I hope this answers your question. Please let us know if you need more information.
