Re: [SL] Year end

[Roy N. <RNi...@NB...>]

While we are talking about year end, I asked a question a few weeks  
back which appears to have slipped through the cracks.

As quick refresher:  I setup a local running club to use SQL-Ledger  
for their books.  The experience has been generally positive with the  
exception of an inventory issue (which I am still trying to unravel)  
and problems trying to use the year-end functionality.

In addition to the general operations, the running club presents two  
large road races each year: a marathon in the
spring and a 10K in the autumn.

Each of these events operates as a separate 'profit centre', with its  
own bank account(s), from the Club's general operations and I have  
setup SQL Ledger such that the Marathon and 10K events are separate  
'Departments'.

As alluded above, this worked just wonderfully until we tried to  
perform a year end.   The "year end" function appear to work  
globally ... i.e. it
sweeps all departments/divisions together and drops the retained  
earnings into a single account.   Is there a way I can perform the
year end function on a per department basis?  ... or will I have to  
pull everything apart and re-implement them as separate 'companies' -  
which would be highly inconvenient and remove some of the benefits  
the Club has enjoyed with SQL Ledger.
