Hi @Ravinder 

In AccountRight v19, once a financial year has been rolled, you are unable to make change or create transactions in the previous financial year. If you wish to make any changes to the previous financial year, you would have to restore a backup to before you started the financial year and would need to re-enter any data since taking that backup OR look at recording those transactions in the current financial year. 

Let us know if you have further questions on this.

Hi Komal

Sorry for replying too late.

I just wanted to see the previous year's transaction not change/edit anything, if it is possible to do so, please guide.

I have another question, I have bought a Printer from outside Australaia, having commercial invoice from the supplier., paid 30% advance payment and 70% paid before shipping, didn't receive the Printer yet, will take a month and half.

Could you please advice how to record purchase of the Printer and what tax code should i use.

Kind Regards

Hi @Ravinder 

That depends on whether you have purged transactions from old financial years while rolling over or not. If the transactions are purged, then the only way you can see them is by restoring a backup.

As far as the second question is concerned, generally, you would record it as an order in the system and then convert into bill, however, we would recommend discussing this with an accounting advisor as they would be the best people to help you ensuring that the tax codes used are correct.
