Click the Non-transaction Data button.

The Non-transaction data screen appears with the #EntityDetails.ClientDetails table open in the right-hand pane.

The fields for data entry are contained within tables and the tables are contained within folders.

button for the relevant folder/s. The sub folders and tables contained within the folder appear.
Click on the relevant table and enter the required data.

If a table is not a Multi Record table you can click in any field and enter the required data.

To enter Non-Transaction data for a prior year

When the Non-Transaction Data window opens, the #EntityDetails.ClientDetails table is opened in the right-hand pane. At the top of the left-hand pane the field Non-transaction items for displays a year.

To change the year for which you are performing data entry, click the drop down arrow in this field and select the appropriate year.

Be sure to return the year setting to the current year prior to exiting the Non-transaction data so as to reduce the possibility of others entering information into an incorrect year. When entering non-transactional data for other years in Multi Record database tables, you need to enter the data of the same description in the same row of current and previous year as the row number is mapped to the same description.
