When the Periodic Costing has been analyzed and reconciled and the results are approved, then you can close the PC sub-ledger and move the Periodic Costing transactions from the transient layer to the management layer (or official layer when you use the complete method). Both these functions are performed at once using Mass Layer PC-Transfer Execute (25.13.12). This function moves all Periodic Costing transactions from the Periodic Costing Calculation Daybook in the transient layer to the Final Daybook. You define the layers and daybooks to use in Periodic Costing Control; see Periodic Costing Control for more information.

The Mass Layer PC-Transfer Execute program transfers the Periodic Costing transactions for all entities in the domain and closes the Periodic Costing sub-ledger for each entity. For more information on Mass Layer PC-Transfer Execute, see QAD Financials User Guide.

In the case where an entity does not have any GL transactions, the system does not close the PC sub-ledger for that entity by Mass Layer PC-Transfer Execute. For example, this can happen when you use separate entities for planning with no operational transactions. You must close the PC sub-ledger manually for these entities by using Entity GL Period Modify (25.4.2.1).

Please refer to PC Calculation Reverse when there is a reason to re-open a previously closed PC period.
