Hi,

Period closing process:

It is the process which involve closing the sub-ledger (AP,AR)periods and then the ledger periods (GL).

During the Subledger period closing ,all the transactions are balanced and transferred to Ledger for the period.

This also means that no more transactions can be created or posted for the closed periods. In short closing the business activites for the particular period !!!

Regards,
Vinod

We do the reconciliation before closing the period.

Basically reconcililation process in AP is as follows

2) Run the Transfer to General ledger for the GL Period

3) Post AP journal entries

4) Run the AP Trial balance and GL trial balance for the AP transaction accounts.

The respective total of Debits and credits should be balanced.
This is reconciliation
5) Open the next period

6) Close current period and sweep the open transactions to the next period


Sweep :
This process is used to move the unposted AP transactions to another period.
It is initated when payables accounting period is getting closed.

Regards
Vinod
