If you want to use the historical information like invoices etc. you could
do the following:

1) Call a trial balance as of 31 of dec.
2) Ad a GL transaction, exactly as the above trial balance but with
NEGATIVE values.
3) Check your balance as of 31 of dec. Should be all in cero!
4) Call a trial balance from your old accounting system, transcribe it as
a GL transaction.

Now your balances in both accounting systems should be excatly the same.
Open invoices should show up in your statements. If everything looks fine
you should use the year end function and close last year.

Hope it helps
