Closing an asset period

Before you close an asset period, you must release assets and run the Asset Depreciation Calculation and List. If depreciation approval is enabled at the company level, the depreciation must be approved by the approver before the period is closed.

To close an asset period:

  1. Select Assets > Monthly Processing > Close Period.
  2. Specify this information:
    Finance Enterprise Group
    Specify the name of the finance enterprise group.
    Update
    If No With Error Report is selected, errors are validated and listed in the Errors tab of the processing results. The period is not closed, and records are not updated.

    If Yes No Error Report is selected, errors are not validated, the period is closed, and no error report is generated. We recommend this option if errors are identified and fixed already or if no changes were made to the account or dimension status or to valid pairs, or if the No With Error Report has already been used.

    If Yes With Error Report is selected, errors are validated and are listed on the Errors tab in the processing results, and the period is closed.
