Sage Instant Accounts - Year End Procedure

[reactive]

Hello

I would be most grateful if anyone can help with my queries.

Firstly Our business set up in Feb 2010 and our first year end was 31.03.11. We employed an accountant to manage the year end which is now complete. It wasnt however done one sage so I keep getting the popup message about the financial year whenever I enter an invoice.

Can I just go into the year end and follow the instructions to complete this? I noticed it required all the month ends to be done prior to the year end, I havent been doing this either.

On another note, I wonder is there a way of changing the bank balance? In the early days I had no idea about bank reconciliations so did it incorrectly, resulting in the bank balance being incorrect. I know reconcile the bank statement every month and know what to do, but the balance is never correct. can I change this?

Any thoughts our suggestions gratefully received!
Thanks in advance

Month End's don't need to be run at all, all they do is clear the turnover so you can run the Year End without running month ends.

Incorrect bank reconciliations would not affect the bank balance as such - if the balance is wrong then, by definition at least one other nominal code must have an incorrect balance on it as well...
