You need to change the default revenue code for your current year property taxes from current property - 40110 to prior year - 40120 on July 1. You need to be sure to change this after you have receipted the current year's last property tax for June and before you receipt any for July.

Go to "Menus", "System Control", and then "Default Codes". On the "Year" field, the "Lookup" option is available. Enter the year or select from the "Lookup". Change the "Default Revenue Code" (prior year taxes, net property, rollback, pickup) to 40120. This is the revenue code labeled "Trustee's Collections - Prior Year". If you collect city or Special School District taxes, you may be using other revenue accounts (40610, 40620, 40630, etc.). You should do this before receipting any taxes in the new fiscal year. You also need to make sure that the allocation table number at the bottom of this screen is correct. If it is not correct, you can do a look-up to select the correct allocation table number for the tax year.
