A client needs guidance on month-end closing procedures.
The client needs to be able to stop all teams except Accounts payable and General ledger from posting transactions for the month.
You need to configure Dynamics 365 Finance to allow only those two teams to transact during the period being closed.
Which three actions should you perform? Each correct answer presents part of the solution.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

  • A. Create an access group called month end access for Accounts payable and General ledger team members.
  • B. Set all modules to none to prevent any transactions from being posted.
  • C. Configure the financial period close workspace tasks to the Accounts payable and General ledger teams only
  • D. Move the period status to on hold for your client's one legal entity.
  • E. Assign the security group month end access on the ledger calendar form for the modules they need access to.

A, B and E are correct options. Why B, because only access to two groups is mentioned, so no other options are stopping all users to post transactions.

B is incorrect as it disallows ANYONE from posting. You need to modify the module access, but not to "none": instead you'll choose to allow a user group, AP or GL, one for each respective module.

Explanation of Incorrect Options: B. Setting all modules to "none" in the Ledger Calendar would block all transactions, including those from Accounts Payable and General Ledger, which contradicts the requirement to allow these teams to post. This action would prevent any postings. C. The Financial Period Close Workspace is used to manage tasks related to the period-close process, such as assigning and tracking closing tasks. While it can be configured to assign tasks to specific teams, it does not control the ability to post transactions in the system.

To configure Dynamics 365 Finance to allow only the Accounts payable and General ledger teams to transact during the month-end closing period, you should perform the following three actions: Create an access group called month end access for Accounts payable and General ledger team members (Option A). Set all modules to none to prevent any transactions from being posted (Option B). Assign the security group month end access on the ledger calendar form for the modules they need access to (Option E). These steps will ensure that only the specified teams can post transactions during the closing period, while all other teams are restricted.

C is correct cause it specifically allows users from groups to post transactions, and not any other user.

In my experience, If you sett all modules to none, nobody can use that period. So, B is not correct. ACE correct.

ACE is correct. As for B&D - you cannot specify user group with these options.

See: General ledger > Period close > Ledger calendars For each calendar you have to specify per legal entity what the period status is (open/on hold/closed) and per module specify the user group that can access A = correct, but should have been called 'user groups' B = incorrect because the user groups must be assigned to at least ACP and GL module (see E.) C = correct because the employees need access to their closing tasks D = incorrect 'On hold' blocks all postings (but can be reopened) E = correct, since this allows the users accociated to the usergroup access they need It is misleading that usergroups (form name)are called access groups and security group (their function)

Selected Answer: ABE
C - Financial Period Close Workspace is an optional functionality and does nothing in restricting access. Also AP and GL teams could be posting transactions that are no necessarily required for the period to be closed. B is the only option which "prevents" other users (non AP and GL users) from posting transactions

Your last statement is incorrect: B is not he only option which "prevents" users from posting transactions. "E" does this as well. Remember there are two ways of restricting access: period status, or module access. E assigns single groups to module access, restricting everyone else but the AP / GL groups.

B is not correct. If you set all modules to None, the month end access group will also be blocked from posting in the system. A and E are obviously correct, and of the remaining options only C will work, as B and D will stopp all transactions. Answer: ACE

The correct answer is A,B,E. The period close workspace tasks help keep track of tasks still yet to be performed but is optional and doesn't impact the close process. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/finance/general-ledger/close-general-ledger-at-period-end
