Thanks, I did not think about the simple open, it works when Exporting the
Accounts and then use Open instead of Import!

Hi,

there is book closing support, but AFAIK it does not remove old
transactions, 
only zero your expense and income accounts to equity accounts.

If you Export Accounts, you should then FIle -> Open the resulting export
file 
(not import).  Note that this export will just be the Chart of Accounts, you

will lose things like scheduled transactions and Customers/Vendors etc.

HTH,
Maf
