Summary

How to change the default program date in Sage 50 Accounts.

Description

The date which appears when you enter a transaction is the program date. If you want to post a number of transactions with a specific date, to save time you can  change the default program date first rather than changing the date on each transaction line. It's easy to do and only affects the computer that you're on. Let's take a look.


Resolution

  1. On the menu bar click Settings, then click Change Program Date.
  2. Enter the new date then click OK.

 TIP: The program date refreshes when you open the software. If you leave your software open overnight, the program date doesn't refresh automatically.
