To close an inventory accounting year, select the year to close and click the OK button in the ribbon. The software validates that all accounting periods for the year have been closed.

Note You must use Inventory Year Create to open a new inventory accounting year.

Note With proper security authorization, you can continue to post transactions against the year by selecting the year as the accounting year for your transaction. This applies to all areas of the system including accounts payable, accounts receivable, and the general ledger. The authorization for posting to prior years is defined in User Profile Maintenance.
