accountingbooks multiselect Accounting Books false If you use Multi-Book Accounting, you can enable Period End Journal Entries for each accounting book and subsidiary combination to which you have access. In the list, select the subsidiary's accounting books to use with the Period End Journal Entries feature. Note: When you enable the Period End Journal Entries feature for a subsidiary, you can edit the accounting books assigned to that subsidiary. However, you may not be able to disable Period End Journal Entries for the subsidiary because another user selected an accounting book that you cannot access. Accounting books that you cannot access do not appear for selection or exclusion.

createbscloseandopenjournals checkbox Create Balance Sheet Closing and Opening Journals false When you check this box, NetSuite adds a step to the Create Period End Journals task on the Period Close Checklist. The Balance Sheet Closing step follows the Income Closing step at the fiscal year end of the subsidiary. This step creates a balance sheet closing journal. This journal reduces the balance of balance sheets accounts to zero and posts any necessary balance amount to the account you specify. This balance sheet closing journal is the last period end journal in the fiscal year. Unless you have selected segments in the Group by These Segments list, the amount posted to the balance sheet closing account should be zero. In the same step, to reopen the balance sheet, NetSuite reverses the balance sheet closing journal on the first day of the next fiscal year.
createincomesummaryjournals checkbox Create Income Summary Journals false When you check this box, NetSuite creates two period end journals in the Income Statement Closing step. This step is part of the Create Period End Journals task on the Period Close Checklist. (NetSuite creates more journals when you create period end journals by segment.) The first journal (or journals) reduces the income and expense accounts to zero and posts the net income to the account defined for income summary profit or loss. If the net income is a gain, the offset posts to the income summary profit account. If the net income is a loss, the offset posts to the income summary loss account. The second journal (or journals) moves the balance from the income summary account used in the first journal, to the retained earnings account.
excludebsfromglnumbering checkbox Exclude Balance Sheet Closing Journals From GL Numbering false When the GL Audit Numbering feature is enabled, the Exclude Balance Sheet Closing Journals from GL Numbering box appears. Check this box to skip numbering for the balance sheet closing journals.
