You can close the year in Accounts Receivable before closing the year in interfacing applications. The year-end close in Accounts Receivable is independent of closing the year in General Ledger.

What happens when you close the year

• It clears This Year customer totals and the Next Year customer totals move to This Year.
• The Year ending date in AR Settings changes to the next year ending date.
• This date displays in the Close Year - Date Selection window (Tasks, Close Year).
