This error occurs because one or more periods in the Current Fiscal Year remain open. Year-End processing requires all periods in the current fiscal year to be closed before proceeding.

Resolution Steps:

  1. Navigate to: General Ledger

  2. Go to Period Processing

  3. Click Periods – All Modules – This Company

  4. Verify the Current Fiscal Year and check the status of all periods.

  5. Close all open periods in the Current Fiscal Year for the appropriate KCO (Company):

    • Select each open period.

    • Change the status to Closed.

  6. Once all periods are closed, return to:
    ​General Ledger > Period Processing > Periods – All Modules – This Company

  7. Click Next to complete the GL Year-End process.
