Microsoft Announces the End of Management Reporter

Microsoft will continue to support Management Reporter until 2026. However, it’s not recommended to stick with a tool that is no longer going to be updated or enhanced.

When you close your fiscal year in GP, this is the process that rolls the beginning balance forward for the new year. If you have started your new year and have not yet closed the fiscal year, it is still possible to run a balance sheet with the beginning balance. You will need to make modifications to your column on your balance sheet report.
