Is there a way of uploading forecasts and budgets without opening all the periods risking people posting actual journals to historic periods accidently?

    You can Restrict Module Access By User Group so only that group able to enter or update data within that particular module.
    refer: https://cloudblogs.microsoft.com/dynamics365/no-audience/2016/05/09/module-access-level-specify-which-users-can-post-to-a-period-in-ax-2012/
    for more information.

    Thanks,

    Hi craig6140,

    Do you get an error when trying to upload your data?

    If so, what does the error message say?

    Best regards,

    Ludwig

    When i attempt to post a budget entry to a period on hold i get this message :

    "A budget check cannot be performed. The financial period with the accounting date is not in an open financial calendar period."

    Hello craig6140,

    Many thanks for the feedback.

    Is a temporary opening of the periods an option?

    Alternatively, can you make use of the module access rules that Amith mentioned?

    Best regards,

    Ludwig
