(0) ShareShare

Posted on by

Dears,

One of our users accidently closed periods from GL --Setup --Periods -- until March, 2012... what is the possibility of reopening the closed transactions and if not, can we close year 2011?

Your help and assistance are highly appreciated.

Thank you

Suha

    Hi,

    In fact, we did not run the fiscal year closing process for 2011... the current status of the periods is (closed) for each month prior to April, 2012.. We are using AX2009

    Thank you

    if you did not have run the Fiscal year close process then you can write the simple job to update the status of period to open.

    table is LedgerPeriod, there should be PeriodStatus field that need to be updated.

    Yes, i agree to Amir's suggestion. You may have to write a code to update the status as the form does not allow to change the status back to OPEN. I am not sure if it will work as desired as i have never faced this earlier.

    Hi there,

    I'm facing with the same problem too. Would be appreciated if you could share with me the codes as I'm still new AX.

    you may run a simple sql stat. to update the periodstatus from the table LedgerPeriod OR you can update manually .

    Regards,

    Suha
