Hi, I have just joined a company who are using sage program for long time. Since May 2008 they have not run month end /year end. How can i Update it or is there any steps should i follow. Do I need to make any adjustment or I will just simply follow the month end/ Year end by clicking next. (Note: My company do not use whole benefit of the sage. they do not do bank reconcilitaion, vat return done by the accountant not by using sage. Basically, they are using sage for sales and purchase and rest of the part is not so much updated)
There is also data size is too big which is 188000 splits. I want to reduce data size. Sage are working very slowly in our companys network. Do you think if i do the month end/ Year end or reduce data size will be improved the performance ? Or any other advice please.................
Many Thanks
Abdur

What version of Sage?
Is this Sage Line 50?
If so then I would run the year ends to bring the system up to date
I would then clear the audit trail up to a couple of years ago to get rid of some of the data
Make sure you back up and data check every step of the way
You will need to put the opening balances on from the accountant to get a balance sheet on the system, and the bank and VAT should really be done on the system

You never need to month end Sage Line 50, unless you really want to
If you have tried to remove transaction before and there are problems it suggests that the data corrupts
What are the errors?
