Posting Future Transactions
Now users can post all transactions with future dates beyond the current financial year up to 5 years from the current year. For example, if the current year is 2020, you can post transactions up to 2025. Based on this change, you do not need to set your future accounting year, this will be the following 12 months. Thereafter the year end is run. If need be, this can then be edited to make shorter or longer, after the year end is ran.
