Year-End Eaglesoft Processing

Where did 2013 go? As we come to the end of the year, I want to take a moment to make sure that you have all the necessary information needed for End-of-Year processing.

First, before you get started, remember to backup your daily, monthly and yearly data. Check to make sure that all of your data is being backed up before you proceed with processing. Once you have all of your data backed up,Eaglesoft users on version 15 or higher will find the End-of-Year documents installed to your computer’s hard drive. To access this information, go to:

Start > Programs > Eaglesoft > End-of-Year Documentation

You will find two files located within the folder. The file titled “EOY FAQ” contains our most frequently asked questions regarding the End-of-Year processing. The other, entitled “EOY Instructions,” will give you step-by-step instructions on how to process your End-of-Year in Eaglesoft. Simply double-click the file you want to view. If you are not able to access the End-of-Year Documentation or if you are on an older version of Eaglesoft, you may print the information online through the FAQ section on the Eaglesoft website. To access FAQ within Eaglesoft, just click on the Online menu.

Please, please, please make your daily, monthly and yearly backups prior to processing the End-of-Year in Eaglesoft. If you have any concerns about your backup, call 800.294.8504 and we will help you.

Finally, our support center will be closed for the holidays on the following days:

• Tuesday, December 24, 2013
• Wednesday, December 25, 2013
• Wednesday, January 1, 2014

Happy Holidays!
