2. Set up Company

Before beginning the Create a New Company wizard, have the following information:

• Ensure you know your fiscal year structure (12 or 13 months, calendar year or other).
• Determine if your accounting method will be accrual or cash basis. Choose Accrual if you use Accounts Payable (AP) and Accounts Receivable (AR).

Note: detailed steps to set up your company are described in the Establishing a New Company section of your Get Started learning package on Sage University.
