How to close the month with the month-end checklist

Possible mistakes are flagged every night, each close step prepares its drafts with the reason, and nothing posts until you approve it.

Steps

  1. Clear possible mistakes

    Choose Accounting → Possible mistakes. Each flag says why; fix what is wrong, or choose Not a mistake… and say why it is right.

  2. Prepare the close

    Choose Accounting → Month-end close, pick the Month and choose Prepare the close: bank matching, accruals, deferred revenue, depreciation, FX revaluation and review, each with its drafts and reasons.

  3. Approve, then lock

    Choose Approve and post on each step that is Ready to approve, or Skip it with a reason. When every step is finished, choose Lock the period.

  4. Schedule the routine

    Under Accounting → Scheduled duties, choose Add duty to chase unpaid invoices or match new bank lines; a duty that sends or posts waits for your approval.
