How to use two year-end close periods (period 13 and period 14)

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 5

Hi All,

I have a question regarding using two year-end close periods (period 13 and period 14).

My client needs a first close period 13 allowing adjustments from both HQ and Subs finance users, and they need a second close period 14 only allowing adjustments from HQ finance users.

I created the periods 13 and 14, they both the same Start date and End date (here in screenshot 9/30/2022), which are given by D365 and I cannot change.

This leads to the below issue when I booked one closing adjustment in Period 13,

- This adjustment is correctly shown (one record) in the Trial balance,

- BUT it is accounted twice (two records) in the Period balance, both on Period 13 and 14, as they have the same Start/End Date .

Could anyone help here? Thanks!

    I don't think so you should have same type of period with same date range. Can you use last two dates for these two different periods?

    Hi thank you!

    I cannot change the dates for period 13 and 14, they are given by d365.

    Are you sure you want 2 Closing periods?  Would one additional Operating period - Period 13  (9/29/22) and Closing Period 14 (9/30/22) work?  It sounds like you just need to control who can post into those periods.

    I think you have created 14th period right?

    Because generally when you create D365 generates only 13th period.

    In worst case, you can create new calendar > map to ledger

    Now in this calendar split period 12 (Operating) in two parts till 29th and 30th (As suggested by Frank)

    Hi, I am trying to book on period 13. I open the period and at the end of the book for the validation. I had an error message regarding the fiscal period. For the period one till 12, It is on execution but 13 is on closing. How can I book on period 13 without error ?
