Is it possible to systematically lock AR?
Controller is looking to systematically lock AR at like 3am on the next day - I am thinking not possible (Manage accounting periods)

Not from my understanding and I don't think the period record is accessible via a script. Perhaps to write another script that locks invoices and credited created on or before a specific date/time until you can come in and manually lock the period.

could also do a detective control like a saved search to flag all the transactions entered between the deadline and when you actually locked it. could even email all the transaction creators saying they need to post it to the next period or whatever.

to solve this request we have had to create audit searches for review before manually locking the period.

TBH not really sure what we are trying to solve for just yet, got this second hand...
