Closing batch journals

Normally, batch journals remain open until a new transaction is created the next day, or if business is closed over a weekend, days later. These open journals may create a problem if you are attempting to balance your GL control accounts, especially during month end. If you require all batch journals be closed daily, or prior to month-end processing, run Sales Cash Drawer Balance Report after all other scheduled processes are complete. This report closes all batch journals that are open. We recommend you set up this report as a stored report to run nightly, or at end of month, as needed.
