  • Changes to the period and period frequency are updated elsewhere in Onvio, including dropdown lists with periods, transactions, and the Workpaper reference column of the Trial Balance screen.
  • You can edit only 1 fiscal year at a time, unless you access the
    Edit Contact
    screen from Onvio Trial Balance.
    • You can edit multiple years at the same time as long as those years don't have any activity.
    • Fiscal year dates will update if a year beginning or ending date is updated on a single year.
    • The
      Tax year
      field will show all tax years available within a given fiscal year. Tax years can only be assigned to a single fiscal year.
  • Changes for the selected fiscal year don't affect other years set up for the contact.
