Closing a period
If Lease Accounting system control is used in Global Ledger, then you must close a lease accounting period before you can close the corresponding Global Ledger period. You must close the periods to ensure that all processing for the periods are completed. Closing a period is also used to track period-to-date and year-to-date amounts.
This list shows the circumstances in which a period can be closed:
- Outstanding payments are processed
- Open leases that are scheduled to end within the period are closed
- Lease-related transactions are journalized and posted
