Opened new year, now \"Error: Prior End Balance Forward Invalid\"

Opened a new year, added a new year date pattern in P0010, set the Beginning of Fiscal year to beginning of this new date pattern, and set current period to "1".

Some depts are 'online' so they're OK. But those depts that are still entering previous (pre-dated) fiscal year transactions are getting the error:

"Error: Prior End Balance Forward Invalid"

According to another post here in jdelist, the cause of this is being in the wrong fiscal year.

How, in JDE, when the current period is period 1 in 2012-2013, do I enter transactions dated period 12 in 2011-2012?

From this site and others I get these suggestions:

1- "Prior Year End Balance Invalid means that the record you are trying to update did not go through the annual close."

2- "The Bal Fwd issue indicates that you are in the wrong PERIOD and YEAR."

3- "You'll need to either go into p0010 and open the GL period to the date of the earliest period that you are posting GL date wise or temporarily change your GL constants to allow PBCO posting."

Regarding #1, the year end procedures we have run are: R098201-Annual Close.

Regarding #2, system is "current open" in Period 1 of 2012-2013, but we want to transact in both that period AND Period 12 of 2011-2012.

Regarding #3, PBCO is allowed. Again, current open is Period 1.

Any assistance greatly appreciated.

You can enter transaction using document type in P0911 as ## (Prior year transactions).
