Article summary

When processing Accounts Payable or other items, the edit report may show an error stating "Posting to a closed period." The option to Post at the top of the report will also be grayed out. 

Answer:
This may be due to the fiscal year containing the post date being closed. 
  1. Go to File Maintenance > General Ledger > Close Modules by Date
  2. Replace the date entered with a date prior to your posting date. 
    • For example: If you are posting to 06/15/2018, and the current date in Close Modules by Date is 6/30/18, set the date to 6/30/17.
  3. Run the edit report again. No errors will occur.
  4. Post
