Budget Year

[FBCVandalia]

Our church voted to change when our budget year starts. We want it to be a calendar year, (Jan to December). The current budget year runs September 2016 to August 2017. We want to extend the current budget year by 4 months, having a 16 month budget. How can this be done in the software? We want the Income & Expense reports to reflect the 16 month budget. I understand how to make the change in the software on January 2018, but don't know what to do with this current year Any suggestion or instruction would be greatly appreciated.

This may be one of those questions you need to actually call Powerchurch support on. I'm not sure of a good way to handle this.

I know you can run reports across the years, you can't include any sort of 'year to date' type of information.
