In the accounting period, if I have AP locked, does it still allow you to date and post to that period if the accounting period itself is open

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

Based on the conversations, if the AP (Accounts Payable) is locked for a specific accounting period, it generally should not allow you to date and post to that period. However, there are exceptions to this rule. If a role has the 'override period restrictions' permission, it can post to a locked period. This is typically used for roles that need to do some final posting after everything is locked. It's also worth noting that the period isn't fully locked until the very last step of closing the period in the period close checklist. So, even if AP is locked, if the period itself is not fully closed, transactions may still be possible. In addition, it seems that NetSuite treats advanced intercompany journals as AP/AR transactions, which could potentially be posted even when the period is locked for the AP/AR team. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
