====== Updating the annual contributions ======

You will find this function under **//Turnover/Year-end closing/Updating annual contributions.//** Pay particular attention to which account area you are in. 

:!: This function is basically the "predecessor" of automatic contribution allocation. Nowadays, you can use the automatic contribution allocation to post items that are relevant for the __current__ status of the persons. This saves a considerable amount of time: [[en:umsaetze:beitragszuordnung:beitragszuordnung|]] 


In contrast, with the account update, you post all items with an annual status to the accounts that are __exactly the same__ were in the respective accounts last year. All changes to memberships would have to be processed manually here. For this, the __tick__ (2) in the image is responsible for this.
