Year-End Post Closing Entries
Use the Year-End Post Closing Entries routine to update the Account Period Balances from the journal entry transactions created by the Clear and Close Accounts routine for the closing Period (usually Period 14). When the routine finishes, the post report prints the totals and any errors that occurred.
Also called: Update Closing Entries, Post Closing Entries
Tips:
For information about the sequence of running the Year-End steps, refer to the General Ledger Runbook.
The post report is also known as the Post Journal Entries Report and the Closing Post Report.
A copy of the post report is maintained in Report History for an audit trail.
If you see
the following message, then you may have already run the post or you
are running it out of sequence. If you need additional help,
contact NDS Support.

Before running this routine, print the Year-End Journal Listing and confirm that every expense account is cleared and closed.
If necessary, you can re-run the post for a period without duplicating the updates of the previously posted journal entry transactions. However, NDS Support may first need to reset the Year-End flag.
