Month-end for managers

Goal

Close the month with approvals clear, banks reconciled, and the accounting period closed.

Who it is for

Managers and controllers. Period close needs accounting.close_period (typically Admin or custom role — default Manager is view-heavy).

Preconditions

• Drafts you intend to include are posted or intentionally deferred.
• Bank feeds/statements available for the period.

Ordered steps

1. Reports and dashboards — spot anomalies.
2. My Work and Approvals — clear blockers.
3. Bank reconciliation — import, match, balance.
4. Review AR receipts / AP payments still open if material.
5. Period close — run preflight, fix fails, Close.
6. Skim Periods if you hit period_closed / no_open_period on stragglers.

Result

Period is closed; further posts to that date range hard-stop until reopened/adjusted per policy.
