Additional procedures are required if there are closed months in the current fiscal year, if the firm implements taxes, uses the Accounts Payable module, or has payment activity in open months of the current fiscal year. This document lists all procedures involved for changing the accounting method. Each procedure is listed below with a check box so you can mark only the procedures you need to do. The procedures are then described in detail under their own topic heading in the order that they are to be performed. To do Done Procedure Adjusting GST/VAT and Sales Tax (if applicable) Are there closed months in the current fiscal year? Adjusting Accounts Receivable Is there an A/R balance at the end of the previous fiscal year? Is there billing activity in closed months of the current fiscal year?

Adjusting Accounts Payable Is there an A/P balance at the end of the previous fiscal year? Is there A/P activity in closed months in the current fiscal year?

Contacting LexisNexis PCLaw Technical Support If there are closed months in the current fiscal year, re-opening the months reduces the number of adjusting entries needed.
2 Description of Accounting Methods Accrual and Modified Cash systems differ in the way taxes, accounts receivables, receive payments and accounts payable are handled. Accrual systems post billed fees to Accounts Receivable (1200), taxes to their respective payable accounts, and uses General Liabilities (2000) for accounts payable. Modified Cash systems do not have an A/R account, therefore fees do not affect the G/L, disbursements remain in Client Disb Recov (1210), and taxes are not allocated to their respective payable accounts until payment is received. Accounts payable is allocated directly to an expense account, but not until the payable is processed. Account Nickname Account Type Accrual Modified Cash 1200 Asset Accounts Receivable Does not exist 1210 Asset Client Disb Recov Client Disb Recov 2000 Liability General Liabilities Does not exist An equity account, (3500), is used in many of the following procedures. In a partnership, this account is called Income for Alloc. For a corporation, it is Retained Earnings. For simplicity, this document refers to the account as Income for Alloc (3500). Adjusting GST/VAT and Sales Tax This section is only applicable for firms using GST, VAT and/or sales tax. Is there GST/VAT/sales tax activity in the previous fiscal year? Tax from the previous fiscal year is included in Adjusting Accounts Receivable on page 3. A separate adjusting entry is not required. Are there closed months in the current fiscal year? If GST, VAT, or sales have been charged during a month that is now closed, run a Billing (Fees) Journal for the period and create an adjusting entry to zero the balance of the tax payable accounts. This step can be performed separately or be included with Adjusting Accounts Receivable on page 3.

Run a Billing (Fees) Journal to attain the A/R balance. Create adjusting entries to transfer the balance of Accounts Receivable (1200). Is there an A/R balance at the end of the previous fiscal year? Adjusting entries are required for billed fees, disbursements, and taxes (if applicable) that were unpaid at the end of the previous fiscal year.

Click Yes to post the adjusting entry. 9. Repeat this procedure for each subsequent open month where there are payments. Substitute the date of the last day of the particular month. Adjusting Outstanding Accounts Payable This step is for firms using accounts payable. In Accrual systems, a liability is incurred through accounts payable as soon as the payable is created. The liability is continued until the payable is processed. Modified Cash allocates a payable directly to an expense account but not until the payable is processed. The balance of an expensed payable is not carried over to the next year. Is there an A/P balance at the end of the previous fiscal year? Payables still outstanding at the end of the previous fiscal year need to be adjusted to equity so the expense is not carried over to the current year. Producing a Payable Listing Report Pull-down menu: Reports > Accounts Payable > Payable Listing The Payable Listing provides a record of payables for a specific period. Exhibit 7. The Payable Listing window for adjusting accounts payable 1. Leave the Vendor and Invoice boxes blank. 2.

Click OK to proceed to a confirmation prompt. 6. Click Yes to post the adjusting entry. Is there A/P activity in open months of the current fiscal year? An adjusting entry is not required. Adjusting Payments to Accounts Payable These procedures are for firms using accounts payable. In Modified Cash systems, payables are allocated to the respective expense accounts when the payable is processed. In Accrual systems, General Liabilities (2000) is decreased when payment is received. Since Accrual systems post payments against General Liabilities (2000), it is not possible to determine the specific expense account the payment is applied to unless individual payables are referenced in the Purchases Journal. Warning: Do not refer to the Paid column of the Payable Listing created in Adjusting Outstanding Accounts Payable on page 9. These values include only payments made to payables that match the date range of the report. Are there payments to payables in the previous fiscal year? An adjusting entry is not required. Are there payments to payables in closed months in the current fiscal year? Payments occurring in any closed month of the current fiscal need to be adjusted.
