Purchases orders can be entered for the new fiscal year at any time by entering an Expected Date that is in the new fiscal year.
In Accounts Payable, the new purchase order batch must have a processing month in the new fiscal year, and the date entered into the Expected Date field for the purchase orders within the batch must be within the same fiscal year as the processing month specified on the Batch Options screen.
Note: If the Expected Date or specified processing month for the batch is in the next fiscal year, the Start New Fiscal Year option will need to be completed for the appropriate funds, which is only applicable if it has not already been done and the funds are not setup to automatically start the new fiscal year.
