• Go to system parameters on the system control menu
• Check the number shown in the account sequence field -  If this is not showing the correct Julian date it will need to be fixed

To correct the julian date:

• Press F24 twice.
• Move the cursor to the beginning of the account sequence number
• Type over the number with the new Julian date
