Hello, this is Andrea and I can assist you with your question today.
No, you should not attempt to post any transactions while the GL YEC process is still going. Additionally, we do not recommend anyone be logged into GP other than the user who is closing the year. I recommend you let the process run to completion prior to letting anyone else into that GP company.
As a side note, here’s our GL Year End Blog. The blog talks about best practices and links to our GL YEC KB Article which has a plethora of great information for you (there are some recommendations about testing the YEC process in Test so you know how long the process will take, as well as information about what can cause the YEC process to take longer to complete):
