What is Period Closing Voucher in ERPNext?
Period Closing Voucher in ERPNext transfers profit or loss to a closing account at the end of an accounting period.
What is a Period Closing Voucher?
At year-end or quarter-end, the Period Closing Voucher consolidates all income and expense balances and transfers the net profit or loss to a designated retained earnings or closing account.
How It Works
Navigate to Accounts → Period Closing Voucher, select the period, choose the closing account, and submit. ERPNext automatically calculates and posts the closing entries.
Best Practice
Run the Period Closing Voucher only after all transactions for the period are finalized and bank reconciliation is complete to avoid re-opening and correcting entries.
