GL199


GL199 - Period Closing



Run Period Closing (GL199) to close a Lawson General Ledger accounting
period after you post all the journal entries for the period. You can close
periods for a company or company group.
Before you close a period, make sure that you release all unreleased
journal entries and post all released journal entries. No open transactions
can exist in the period you are closing, including quick-posted journal
entries
and journal entries created by Currency Revaluation (GL191) and Transaction
Calculation (GL195) for currency gains and losses.
If you have closing control selected for a subsystem, you must close
the subsystem before you can close the general ledger accounting period.



**Processing Effect

When a period is closed, the program:



- Creates automatic reversing journal entries for transactions
defined as Auto Reverse = Yes.


- Marks the period closed.


- If you are closing the current period, the current period
number is incremented by one.

When you close the last period of a year the following year-end processing
occurs in addition to the actions listed above.



- Computes beginning balances for all following year balance
sheet accounts.


- Closes income statement accounts to retained earnings.




- Generates a report of all closing transactions. Any adjusting
entries on subsequent year-end closes are designated with an asterisk.




- Creates a journal entry of all closing transactions. The journal
entry is normal, assigned number 1 and period 99.
