how to prevent user posting journal in future period after open periods for created amortization schedule?

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

To prevent a user from posting a journal in a future period after open periods for a created amortization schedule, you can follow these steps: 1. Go to the originating transaction of the amortization schedule. This could be a vendor bill or any other transaction that initiated the amortization schedule. 2. Modify the start and end dates of the amortization schedule. You should be able to do this even if the period is closed, provided you have the "Allow non-GL changes" option chosen for the period in question. 3. Make sure that all of the periods that you will be amortizing TO are open. For example, if your amortization period is for 10 years, you have to have all of the next 10 years open in order to set up the amortization schedule. 4. If you have already posted anything off of the schedule, it is not recommended to change it except via a Journal Entry (JE). 5. There's also a checkbox on the Amortization Schedule that says "Recognized". Checking this box prevents the posting of Amortization Journals. Please note that these steps assume that you have the necessary permissions to make these changes in NetSuite. If you do not, you may need to speak with your NetSuite Administrator. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
