Close accounting basics

What does closing the books mean?

Closing the books is an accounting process that takes place at the end of a financial period, such as a month, quarter, or year. The purpose of this process is to finalize all financial transactions for that period and ensure that the company's financial statements are accurate and complete. This is essential for decision-making, reporting to stakeholders, and complying with regulatory requirements.

The close process can be long and tedious

If you’ve spent long nights doing monthly, quarterly, or year-end close, you know the process is full of challenges, like:

Countless hours spent on tedious manual processes like amortization, reconciliations, accruals, and preparing flux analysis reports

Time wasted compiling and double-checking data and reports that live in your ERP, on Excel spreadsheets, and in third-party software

Tasks falling through the cracks because they’re tracked and managed in disparate systems

Disjointed processes and data stored across systems make it difficult to create reliable audit trails
