“ In some of the ERP tools there are more than 12 accounting periods in a financial year. They put one accounting period as "Year Open" period where all the carried over balances from last financial year are cleared and one period as "Year Close" where all the transactions for closed for the same financial year.”

This is unclear and relates to the technical aspects of closing one accounting period and opening the next which, if included, needs considerably more explanation. Toby64 (talk) 07:54, 31 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

==Class==

I classified this as start class because it's a concept common in more than one country and yet the article is devoted to only one. A globalize banner should tag this article or it should be moved to article titled Accounting period in the United Kingdom.EECavazos 04:36, 23 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This article needs more wiki links and a see also section directing readers to articles having a similar topic.EECavazos 15:37, 23 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

==Priority==

I classified this as mid priority because it is a somewhat esoteric concept. However, it is also a global concept, so it's priority could definitely go up to high.EECavazos 04:36, 23 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
