Year End Date, Range
Enter the end date of the current year (for example, 01/01/2004). Use the date that represents the first day of the year on which you wish to base your year-to-date totals. The year starting with the date in this field is either a calendar year or a fiscal year. The default value is the last day of the year associated with the current period in the Accounting Periods file, but it can be overwritten.
The Year Start/End Dates are also used to determine which posted payroll transactions to use during the calculation of the W-2 information.
