Year End FAQ
Sage 50 Year End Frequently Asked Questions - One of the most asked questions about Sage 50 year end is how do I create a history company? This is because the purge will remove any closed history transactions that have a date older than the defined number of years to keep historical transactions specified in each module. Most often we recommend creating a history company, performing a backup of your live company. The final step is to restore this backup into the newly created history company and finally renaming the history company using the year in the company name. Then set user security to read only so users can not record any new transactions.
