Close every client’s month — and keep it closed

The trial balance comes from the posted journals. Check the reports, do the VAT, and close the month: a ready-to-close checklist first, then a soft close that refuses postings until it is reopened with a reason.

Who uses it

  • Accountant
  • Partner

What it does

  • Trial balance from every posted journal — for a period or as at a date — with debits equal to credits shown.
  • General ledger, profit and loss and balance sheet.
  • VAT on every line and the VAT return.
  • Ready to close: ledger balances, documents waiting to be posted, supplier bills, unmatched bank lines.
  • A closed month refuses postings from every source — journals, invoices, bills; a soft close reopens with a reason, a hard-closed month only with a second approver, and a locked month is final.

How it works

  1. Check the trial balance.
  2. Do the VAT.
  3. Run the ready-to-close checklist.
  4. Close the month.

The controls that protect it

  • Reopening a soft-closed month needs a reason; a hard-closed month reopens only with a second approver.

What it does not do (yet)

  • Year-end financial statements are a separate package.
