Select Accounts Receivable Period End menu > Period End Processing.
Use Period End Processing to automatically perform either period-end or year-end processing based on the period entered at the Current Period field in Accounts Receivable Options.
Period End Processing allows you to close the current period and increment the accounting period forward to the next period. Period-end processing is usually performed at the end of each accounting period. Year-end processing takes place automatically when period-end processing is performed for the last period of the fiscal year.
Note Fields in Accounts Receivable Options are used to determine the current accounting period and number of years to retain customer sales history, salesperson history, and cash receipts history after year-end processing.
The following occurs during period-end or year-end:
-
Temporary customers with zero balances are automatically purged during period- and year-end processing unless you selected the Retain Temporary Customers Paid Invoices check box in Accounts Receivable Options.
-
Monthly cash receipts history, customer sales history, and salesperson sales history is purged only during period year-end processing based on the selections made in the Years to Retain Cash Receipts History, Years to Retain Customer History, and Years to Retain Salesperson History fields in Accounts Receivable Options. For example, if the number of years to retain cash receipts history, customer sales history, and salesperson history is set to three years, sales and cash receipts history for the year 2010 will be purged when year-end processing is performed for the year 2012.
-
Open invoices with zero balances are removed during period- and year-end processing based on the number of days entered in the Days to Retain Paid Invoices field in Accounts Receivable Options.
If you have not already printed period-end reports, you can do so during period-end processing. Alternately, you can select and print period-end reports without accessing Period End Processing by using Period End Report Selection.
Warning Backing up your data is an important part of your daily and monthly procedures. Back up all Accounts Receivable data before proceeding.
