Change Period Utility

Use the Change Period utility to select the accounting period in which you want to work (your active period).

You can also specify that the latest period be the default active period when you open DPS.

If you switch to a closed or prior period, your ability to process data in that period will be restricted if Allow Processing in Closed Periods or Allow Processing in Prior Periods is not selected for your security role.

If you change to a prior period, Prior period active displays in the DPS main toolbar as a visual indicator that the active period is a prior period.
