Close the month

Closing locks the month so the numbers you reported cannot move.

Checked against the product on 2026-11-04

  1. Step 1: Open Close and Periods

    Pick the month in the period picker. The tiles show how many automatic checks passed, how many failed and how many manual items are left.

  2. Step 2: Read the checklist

    Automatic checks, such as the trial balance being balanced and every journal entry being posted, compute live from your books. Manual items are yours to tick once you have verified them outside Nexus.

  3. Step 3: Read the summary

    Seller Growth and up

    Press Generate AI summary for a plain-language summary of what is still open for the month, shown above the checklist. It reads your books and writes; it changes nothing.

  4. Step 4: Fix what is failing

    Open a failing item and clear its cause: post the drafts still waiting, reconcile your payouts, price any unpriced SKUs. Close stays blocked while an automatic check fails.

  5. Step 5: Close the period

    Press Close period. Every entry in the period becomes locked. A new entry in a closed period needs an adjustment flag and an administrator.

  6. Step 6: Reopen if you must

    Reopening is for administrators only and is recorded in the audit log.
