General Ledger Year-end Checklist

At the end of the fiscal or calendar year, complete the Year-end Checklist to close the fiscal/calendar year. Closing, also known as a "hard close," will lock the transactions and prevent users from add, editing, or deleting transactions from the closed year. The year-end checklist will help you print the financial statements, close the year, and get ready for the next year. It also includes steps for entering audit adjustments and cleaning up the database.
