1. NWOCA EIS Fiscal Year-end Closing Procedures 2017

2. EIS FYE Closing
The following sequence of steps should be completed at the end of the EIS fiscal year. Reminder: FY17 requires capital asset information to be included in the Period H reporting period
Finish all current year processing. Items received on or prior to June 30th (2017) should be added to EIS for FY Any items received after June 30th can be added to the EIS pending file for FY2018
If the depreciation data has been changed so that it is necessary to completely recalculate the life-to-date (LTD) depreciation for several items, you may need to run EISDEPR. Just note that running EISDEPR will affect items that have had improvements (additional ACQTRN’s) added to them causing them to lose their true depreciation history
Closing procedure
The EISDEPR should generally not be run when closing out. Can affect assets that have had improvements (new acquisition records) added to them. Can run projection option to see what is affected, may need to set some items back to original values or update the ones that need LTD depreciation manually in ITMSCN.
