    Hi,

    You can use this repoen action  on the inventory period lists.

    The thing you need to consider is that any reports you have produced for a closed period may no longer be valid if you open the period and add new transactions to the system.

    So it is mainly there to secure reporting compliance.

    Hi, The operation is as mentioned by Igne.

    More details: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics-nav-app/finance-how-to-work-with-inventory-periods#to-reopen-an-inventory-period

    And typically, the inventory period is closed first, followed by the financial period. This way, the financial statements are immutable.
    If you reopen the inventory period after closing the financial period, and post the inbound and outbound, the financial statements need to be regenerated, and then close the financial period again.

    Hope this helps as well.

    Thanks.
