First, log in to Skyline as Manager (Required). Then go to the General Ledger. Change to the appropriate Company. Then go to General Ledger Information and Property/Company setup. Put cursor on second field (Company Name). Hit Ctrl-F7 (Control-F7) and hit enter until you get to period fields you wish to change! F10 to save. Note: changing a period can create significant damage to your database. Be Sure to have a backup! It may be WISE to contact myself or Skyline support to hear all the ramifications of making this change before attempting! YOU ARE FORWARNED!
