Image
Microsoft enables additional control to when G/L entries can be deleted.  Now user can specify the start date of the period for which your country or region requires you to store financial data in the Check G/L Acc. Deletion After field on the General Ledger Setup page.  In my example below, if I must keep data for three years, and today’s date is 01/01/2022, I entered a date of 12/31/2025.  Business Central will notify the user if there are accounts with entries must be kept.  Hope you enjoy the reading. #businesscentral #dynamics #microsoft #erp #msdyn #microsoftdynamics #dynamicsnav #microsoftdynamicsnav #bc #navision #crm #nav #erpsoftware #business #technology #software #office #digitaltransformation #cloud #microsoftpartner #dynamicscrm #powerbi
