    Hello Taysir Al Saidi,

    You didn't mention if you are getting any error or any specific challenge that you are facing while year closing.

    Make sure you are following these. Screen shots are taken from D365 for your understanding.

    --- Set below check boxes enabled in General ledger parameters form.

    --- Select the "Retained earnings" account in the Accounts for automatic transactions form in GL setups for posting type "Year-end result".

    --- While running year close; you are selecting the appropriate legal entity. Once you select the entity, automatically system will pick the retained earnings account.

    --- Set the Transfer balance sheet dimensions check box enabled. By default all dimensions will be selected as "Close all".

    --- Then run the year close after selecting the legal entity.

    --- In the next form as it appears; select the fiscal year to close and write the voucher number manually.

    Kindly check this in test environment first and generate the TB for current year and see if opening balance is updated in the "Opening transactions" column in TB or not.

    Please provide your feedback once done.

    Hi Taysir,

    Your question is confusing to me.

    Can you share more information and possibly some illustrative screenprints?

    Many thanks,

    Ludwig

    Hello Taysir Al Saidi,

    2 more points you have to follow.

    --- Keep all periods On hold for the year you are running the closing process so that no one should post any transaction during the closing.

    --- Make sure you have created the next fiscal year in system where opening balance will be transferred.

    --- Period 1 should be "Open" in the next fiscal year before closing the last fiscal year.

    Kindly check and update us.

    Also appreciate if you specify the challenge you are facing in this process as requested before.

    Best regards,
    Sourav Dam

    Hi Taysir Al Saidi,

    What's the period status of your periods in the 'new' year?

    Are all periods open without any other posting restrictions?

    Do you get an error message when you try to post something?

    Best regards,

    Ludwig

    Hi Taysir,

    Can you please elaborate further where exactly you are facing an issue:

    1. While running year end closing process?

    OR

    2.  Year end closing process is completed and you are unable to post any transaction in new fiscal year?
