Yes, you define the year in AM-N.  I had to add this to TAS-G "maintain menu access records".    
 
The list of menu changes states:  ..."Date based table also supports non-calendar months and short stub years which result from changing the fiscal year start."

How did you manage to enter 00/00/00 dates?

Ah, the old "mousing into the field and typing 000000, and mousing to the next field" trick.  OK, I fixed it so you can no longer cheat and enter 00/00/00 dates.  It is important that there are no 00/00/00 dates in the GL periods.  The 00/00/00 dates may mess up the financial reports.    
 
For short years, enter the beginning date in Period 1 and continue filling in the period dates until you get to the last valid date for the short year.  Then fill in the remaining periods for that year with the same last valid date.  
e.g.  Short year 01/01/05 to 03/25/05.  Enter 01/01/05 in period 1, 02/01/05 in period 2 and  03/01/05 in periods 3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12.  Then for the next year, enter 03/26/05 in period 1 and then fill in the rest of the dates with the beginning period dates.
