Step 1: Post Everything
All tickets, receivers, inventory adjustments, cash receipts, customer adjustments, and transfers must be posted. Run an edit list in each of areas, make sure they are empty. If they are not empty, then you will need to post those sections.

Step 2: Print Essential Reports
Print the last page of the Inventory Valuation Report
We also recommend running a valuation report to get the value of your inventory after completing your year-end process… Your accountant will thank you! IMPORTANT! The Valuation Report lets you see either a detailed or summarized report of the average cost, last cost, and retail value of current on hand inventory. Use this report when you need to declare the value of inventory for tax purposes. Once you have started the New Year, you cannot go back and run this report. It must be run after all posting and before any new posting.
- Select INVENTORY → REPORTS → VALUATION
- For REPORT chooseDetail: Shows location specific totals
Summary: Shows Totals only
On the Inventory Price Tab: Make sure that the values here are “Qty on hand not equal to 0”. This filter will display all of your positive and negative quantity items and ignore all items that have a quantity value of “0”.
- Click on PREVIEW, navigate to the last page, and PRINT only the last page
Print the Customer Aging Report
If you have the Receivables option that you use for your A/R Customers, then you will also need to print the Customer Aging. The Aging report tells you which customers have a balance. We recommend you run this initially at the beginning of the last fiscal month, so you can determine if any of the balances need to be written off. The Aging Report is part of the Receivable Option and lets you see either a detailed or summarized report of A/R customer balance information for each A/R customer. This report ages your customer account balances based on the document date or due date, and displays if they have any balances are 30, 60, 90 days overdue.
- Select CUSTOMER → REPORTS → AGING REPORT
- You can choose which type of Aging report by clicking on the Report dropdown
On the Parameters tab
Age as of Date: Select the appropriate dates to view
