allow no GL changes permission means

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

The 'Allow Non GL Changes' permission in NetSuite allows a user to make changes to a record that do not impact the General Ledger (GL). This permission works in conjunction with the 'Allow Non GL Changes' checkbox in the 'Manage Accounting Periods' section. Even if a user has this permission, they won't be able to make non-GL impacting changes unless the 'Allow Non GL Changes' checkbox is checked for the relevant accounting period. On the other hand, the 'Override Period Restrictions' permission allows a user to post transactions to a period that has transactions locked but is not closed, and also allows making Non-G/L changes when the feature is active on a period. Locking the AR/AP for a period does not necessarily stop transactions from being posted to that period. The period must be fully closed to prevent any transactions from being posted. The purpose of locking AR/AP is to prevent changes to accounts receivable or accounts payable for a specific period, but it does not prevent all types of transactions. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
