I’m unable to complete the year-end because of temporary journals. What does this mean and how do I resolve it?

This message appears when there are temporary journals still present in the dataset. Temporary journals are entries that have been created but not yet finalised or completed — they appear in red in the Nominal Ledger.

To resolve this:

1. Go to Nominal Ledger > Journals.
2. Look through the list and identify any journals shown in red — these are temporary.
3. You have two options:
   • Open the journal and complete it properly.
   • Delete the journal if it’s not needed.

Note: Temporary journal balances are not included in the final financial statements. Deleting them will not affect the current year’s financial data.

Once all temporary journals have been either completed or removed, you’ll be able to proceed with the Year-End process.
