Automatically assigns the status Closing Period to periods that have already ended. When you log on to SAP Business One, the system date is compared with the Posting Date To defined for the existing posting periods. Each posting period with a Posting Date To that is earlier than the current system date gets the status Closing Period. An authorized user can change the status of the existing posting periods. |
Appears only when the option Automatic Change of Period Status to 'Closing Period' is selected. Specify the date in which the automatic change of status for already ended posting periods to “Closing Period” should apply. By default, the value in this field is 1. Example The value specified in this field is: 10. The posting period related to last year has ended on 31.12.0X, and the current system date is 2.1.0X+1. In this case, although the posting period of year 0X already ended, its status will not be changed until the 10.01.0X+1. End of the example. |
