Specify Posting Periods In the French Version

When you specify posting periods, you limit the period in which posting is allowed.

To specify posting periods

Choose the icon, enter General Ledger Setup, and then choose the related link.
On the General Ledger Setup page, in the Allow Posting From field, specify the start date of the posting period.
In the Allow Posting To field, specify the end date of the posting period.

The dates are validated against the allowed posting ranges to make sure that they belong to open fiscal years. For more information, see Allowed Posting Range.
To verify what the allowed posting range is, choose the Get Allowed Posting Range action.

The dates that you define here apply to the whole company, that is, to all users.

Note

You can define different posting periods for different users and apply a posting period to a user on the User Setup page.

If you enter dates here, the dates entered on the General Ledger Setup page will not apply to these users.
