Closed period means the import check found activity in an accounting period that is protected from this write. Review the source date and period status before trying to add the row.
- Confirm that the mapped date matches the original bank evidence.
- Check whether the company’s accounting period is intentionally closed or locked.
- Use the authorized correction or reopening process if historical work is genuinely needed; do not change the transaction date to bypass the restriction.
A correct source file can still contain rows that cannot currently be imported. Data validity and permission to change a closed period are separate checks.
Investigate overlaps first
The closed-period activity may already be represented in the books. Compare the statement with existing records and the relevant close package before assuming the missing import must be added.
If you need support, provide the company, account, original transaction dates and visible row reason. Explain whether you are correcting a known omission or importing an overlapping archive. Keep the rest of the batch’s decisions clear so valid current-period activity is not confused with historical rows that require a separate review.
