Closed Period related validation messages

Readysell auto-closes and opens period when a new calendar month date is reached. As a result, there may be "Closed Period" related validation messages issued advising that the transaction cannot be facilitated since the transaction date falls in a closed period.

This auto-close and open procedure was deemed necessary to prevent periods remain open pass their calendar month which allows transactions to be inadventently created in a past period and potentially leads to account reconciliation or similar issues.

 

In order to work on this transaction you would need to open the closed period as follows :

  1. From the Navigation panel, click Administration then Periods
  2. Locate the closed Period ID that the transaction date falls in e.g., dd/mm/ccyy falls in period ccyymm (8/4/2016 → Period ID 201604)
  3. Uncheck the Closed option to open the period

  4. Click Save

    Click Tools tab and the Flush Cache to ensure the change is committed to database.
