When Mill7 is started up a screens pops up to choose a bookkeeping.
Default the last bookkeeping the user works in is shown.
An other bookkeeping or year can be chosen by entering the bookkeeping number / year. It is also possible to first retrieve a list of bookkeepings per year with F4 (or the ...button). After a bookkeeping has been selected from the list, the fiscal year is entered automatically.
Bookdate
At Book date, the system date of the PC is given. This is the default date with which journal entries are made
Rights
To open a bookkeeping, the user must have the rights to open the bookkeeping concerned.
With the option 'only show accessible bookkeepings' the list of bookkeepings will show only bookkeepings where the user has rights for.
This option can set for all users in the settings.
Converting databases
When opening an administration Mill7 checks to see if any files have changed. If files need to be updated then you are asked if the conversion can be performed. All administrations must be updated after an Mill7 software update.
Depending on the amount of bookkeepings in the installation the procedure can take some time.
Changing bookkeeping or bookyear
There are different ways to open an other bookkeeping or an other book year:
–With the button 
it is possible to switch from client bookkeeping to the 'Write time' screen in the service company and back.
–To switch to an other bookkeeping or year choose Ctrl+O or use menu Bookkeeping> Open bookkeeping.
–With the Year button in the toolbar an other book year of the same bookkeeping can be choosen.
This is possible for the last 5 calendar years.
