The new year is upon us and first and foremost we want to wish you all a happy and prosperous new year!

To wrap up the year in Quickscrip, there are a few steps you need to do. BEFORE YOU DO ANY OF THE STEPS BELOW, BE SURE YOU HAVE RUN YOUR NORMAL MONTH END PROCESSES FOR DECEMBER, just like you would for any other month. Be sure to run steps 10, 11, and 12 from the End-of-Month Processes by Dec. 31!

After running your normal month end procedures, do the following for the year end processes:

1. From the Pharmacy Main Menu, run #7 End of Year Processes.
   
2. Enter 'Y' at the prompt (Yes, it is time to do End of Year processes.).
   
3. Enter the access code, which is 'EOY'.
   
4. This should take you to the End of Year Menu. If not, repeat steps 1-3 again.
   
5. In the End of Year Menu, run steps 1, 2, 6, and 10.

Note that the end of year programs do not have to be run exactly at the end of the year. It is only necessary to be in the right month (January) for them to work. The computer does not care which day in January you run the end of year programs as long as it is AFTER your December 31 month end and BEFORE your January 31 month end. Please don't call in a panic on January 1; you have all of January to get your End of Year programs run.

For nursing home users, End of Year works the same way as your retail system.

For payroll users, you will receive a diskette with new tax tables. Run it AFTER Dec. 31.
