This menu option is used to close fiscal period. It is located under the Operations menu of the General Ledger module. In j-guar application, period closing transactions are done after performing reflection transaction and preparing all ledgers and financial tables at the end of the year.
Period closing is performed over the balance sheet calculations. Income/expense and reflection calculations are not included in this transaction. Period closing is performed over balance - not over debt and credit amounts.
Period closing is performed by following the steps below.
1. All records of the relevant fiscal year are posted to General Ledger.
2. Reflection transactions are completed.
3. Official ledgers and financial tables are prepared.
4. Closing slip is generated.
5. Opening slip is generated.
