edit records in closed period permission

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

In NetSuite, the permission to edit records in a closed period is governed by the "Override Period Restrictions" permission. However, it's important to note that this permission allows changes to be made to transactions in a locked period, not a closed period. A locked period is a part of the month-end process where AR and AP are locked first to prevent users from adding transactions such as invoices and bills to that period. With the "Override Period Restrictions" permission, users can change non-GL impacting fields like descriptions in a locked period. Once the month-end process is complete, the period is closed. At this point, no changes can be made to transactions in the closed period, even by users with the "Override Period Restrictions" permission or even by an admin. The period must be reopened before any changes can be made. It's also worth noting that there is a setting called "Allow Non G/L Changes" which needs to be enabled both for the user and the closed period to allow editing of non-GL impacting fields in a closed period. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
