Close Management

This section covers the day-to-day work of running your month-end close in CloseCore. Most of your time will be spent on three pages: Folders, Checklist, and Reconciliations. You'll sign off on tasks assigned to you from those pages.

A typical close

1. Open the Close dashboard to see where the close stands.
2. Use the My Open Items filter to find the tasks assigned to you.
3. Work through your checklist items and reconciliations, attaching workpapers and tagging balances so accounts tie out.
4. Collaborate with your team using review notes.
5. Sign off as you complete your work.
6. When the period is closed, lock the folder.
