First case: the inquiry concerns a company, a site or a group of companies with homogeneous fiscal years, that is with the same fiscal year start and end dates
The following rules should be followed:
Examples:
The group 1 can be inquired from the 01/01/2008 on.
Until 01/01/2010, the inquiry will comply with the rules relating to the groups of companies with fiscal years having different start and end dates.
Starting from 01/01/2010 the inquiry will comply with the rules relating to the groups of companies with fiscal years having identical start and end dates.
Second case: the inquiry concerns a group of companies with shifted fiscal years, that is with the different fiscal year start and end dates.
The same rules have to be respected.
Remember: when the inquiry concerns a group of companies with shifted fiscal years:
For example:
The inquiry is requested for the period from 01/01/2010 to 30/06/2010.
The result will displays the totals of the debit and credit entries as well as the account balances for the requested period.
In addition to the generic error messages, the following messages can appear during the entry :

The requested inquiry concerns a group of companies which currencies set up for the ledgers attached to the selected type of ledger are different. No inquiry is possible.

For company 'B' the fiscal year starts on the 15/01/2010; as a result, the periods start on the 15th of each month.
