    Hi paddyr , for point 2, and AR & AP reports, the reconciliation reports can be backdated, but the "aged" repots can not. 

     

    For GST, yes the account balances will accumulate. You can record a general journal at the end of each GST period for the new return (simple example only):

    Dr GST on sales

    Cr GST on Expenses

    Cr GST Payments & Refunds (if GST is due, DR if you expect a refund).

     

    If your end of year accounts are prepared by external accountants, they may do that for you, so that only current amounts are carried forward to the new financial year.
