Adjusting Period in GL

Post by suryabpc »

Hi All,

While defining accounting calendar in GL, we define adjusting periods with lost day of every quarter (no of days in adjusting peiod is only 1 day).
Let me know the exact use to define adjusting period.

Hi Surya,
The use of adjusting period is, we can close the period whenever we complete the transactions. But our auditors will come after one or two months. When he comes and asked us to enter some adjustment entries we dont have to open the period. We can put t the entries in the adjusting period.

The adjusting period funtionality is available only in GL not in sub ledger modules.

Hope this is clear.

Regards,
Sridahr
