Work through monthly close

Follow the monthly checklist

1. Open the client’s Bookkeeping → Month close and select the month.
2. Check What blocks closing.
3. Open the indicated work area and resolve its outstanding items.
4. Confirm all monthly material has arrived only after checking it.
5. Review the monthly checks with the responsible bookkeeper.
6. Use Approve monthly checks, then Close month when available. Add the requested note.

Common blockers

Documents awaiting review, unmatched bank or card rows, draft journal entries, failed imports, and incomplete setup can prevent closing. The screen tells you which issue to handle next.

A green stage means that stage is clear. Check the month itself shows Closed before treating the process as complete.

Reopen a month

Use Reopen month only with the appropriate authority and a clear reason. Recheck affected work before closing it again.

The office-wide bookkeeping view helps managers see which client files need attention for the selected month.
