Creating additional fiscal years
|
|
================================
|
|
|
|
You will need a different `Fiscal Year <model-account.fiscalyear>` for each
|
|
year that you want to record accounting transactions.
|
|
|
|
You can create these in the same way as you
|
|
`created your initial fiscal year <Creating a fiscal year>`.
|
|
|
|
.. tip::
|
|
|
|
An alternative, and often simpler, way of creating a new fiscal year is to
|
|
use the `Renew Fiscal Year <wizard-account.fiscalyear.renew>` wizard.

Creating journal entries
|
|
========================
|
|
|
|
In Tryton `journal entries`_ are represented by
|
|
`Account Moves <model-account.move>`.
|
|
With the right modules activated Tryton will automatically create many of
|
|
the account moves for you.
|
|
However, there are times when you will need to manually move amounts from one
|
|
`Account <model-account.account>` to another.
|
|
You do this by using the items found under the
|
|
[:menuselection:`Financial --> Entries`] main menu item.

One-off entries
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|
For entries that are only needed once, for example to set an account's
|
|
initial opening balance, you can manually create an *Account Move*.
|
|
|
|
The [:menuselection:`Financial --> Entries --> Open Journal`] main menu item
|
|
provides another way of entering the details of an account move.
|
|
It provides a list of individual
|
|
`Account Move Lines <model-account.move.line>`, which can be added to as
|
|
required.
|
|
|
|
Reoccurring entries
|
|
-------------------
|
|
|
|
The best way to create accounting entries for things that are expected to
|
|
happen more than once is to use an
|
|
`Account Move Template <model-account.move.template>`.
|
|
|
|
You must first create the *Account Move Template* and set it up to ask for the
|
|
things that might change each time it is used.
|
|
|
|
You then run the
|
|
`Create Move from Template <wizard-account.move.template.create>` wizard to
|
|
create account moves based on a template of your choice.
