Pathway: Accounting > Period Closing
The Period Closing screen provides a list of divisions for which the AR (Accounts Receivable) period can be closed. Once closed, the system restricts any further AR activity within that period. It's important to note that AR period closing is separate from Commission Closing. However, closing the AR period will prompt the display of the Close Commission button on the screen.
