What are monthly and yearly closings for?

Beyond your daily closing, Sweb lets you close the month and the year from Finance > Closings. These higher-level closings seal your totals for the whole period into the same NF525 security chain, but they stay blocked as long as a daily closing is missing underneath.

Why close beyond the day

The daily closing locks each day individually. Monthly and yearly closings do the same at a larger scale: they aggregate your sales, VAT, and per-artist breakdown across the whole period, and seal that total into the fiscal security chain, exactly like a Z report does for a single day.

What's blocked upstream

You can't close a month if a day within it doesn't have its own closing yet, and you can't close a year if a month is missing. The confirmation button stays disabled until all these lower-level closings are done. This is intentional: it guarantees no gap can slip into the NF525 chain.

View a periodic closing

From the Finance > Closings list, filter by type (daily, monthly, yearly) to find the period you're after. Each closing shows a status, balanced or with a discrepancy, and you can open its detail to review the full summary: pre-tax/VAT/total amounts, per-artist breakdown, and, where relevant, the period's deposits and credit notes.

Edge cases

You want to close the month but the button stays grayed out. Check that no daily closing is missing for that month, they all need to be done before you can move to the monthly level.

A daily closing is missing from the month and you don't know which one. The number of missing closings is shown when you attempt the monthly closing, which helps you spot the day or days to handle.

You want to export your accounting for the closed period. Closings feed your exports directly, see How do I export my accounting (FEC, CSV)?.

Once created, a periodic closing is just as immutable as a daily Z report: it can never be edited, which is what guarantees the integrity of your data over time.
