Required permissions

Staff need the accounting_pro_year_end_closing feature with: view, create, approve, reverse.

Assign under Setup → Staff → Roles → Permissions. After changing roles, ask the user to log out and log in again.

Before you start

  • Make sure your role can view this screen (and create/edit if you will change data).
  • Complete module Settings and any required master data first.
  • If this screen depends on other CRM data (customers, items, invoices, staff), create those records first.

What good looks like

After you finish on Close · Year-End Closing, you should see the record in the list with the expected status, and any linked stock/finance/message impact should match what you entered. If something looks wrong, open the record again and check required fields, then retry.

Tips & best practices

  • Use clear codes/names so teammates can search later.
  • Prefer filters (status, date, warehouse, assignee) before exporting large lists.
  • Do not delete posted/historical records unless your process allows it — use cancel, reverse, or adjust instead.
  • When stuck, compare a working sample record field-by-field with the one that fails.

Troubleshooting this screen

  • Blank page / access denied — permission missing or session expired; re-login and check Roles.
  • Cannot save — required field empty, invalid date, or master record not selected.
  • Numbers look wrong — wrong warehouse/period filter, or related document not posted yet.
  • Button missing — your role lacks create/edit/approve/export for this feature.
