Close Account
The close account window displays the Account Number and Depositor for the account. Specify the Post Interest Through date, which is the date through which interest for the account will be posted. You can then specify the Interest Deposit On date which is the date of the transaction. Click the OK button to move forward in closing the account or the Close link to return to the Account Information page.
The program prompts you with how much interest needs to be posted to close the account, along with the final balance. After interest is posted, a closing withdrawal is created and the account is deactivated. In the below example, an interest posting journal of $56.65 is immediately sent to the General Ledger. When the withdrawal transaction of $2056.65 is posted in Manage Unposted Transactions (More Information), another journal entry is created and a withdrawal transaction is sent to Accounts Payable Payment Processing.
To continue the closing process click the Yes button (More Information). Click the No link to return to the Account Information page. |
