This topic shows you how to close a batch. Because batch financial totals and transactions can be still be changed while a batch is still open, as a best practice, you should close a batch as soon as possible after you reconcile the transactions. To safeguard a batch, its details and transactions can no longer be changed after you close it.
The Cash Balance total and the Pledge Balance total for the batch must equal $0.00 before a batch can be closed. If the batch is out of balance a message informing you of this requirement is displayed. After you close a batch, you cannot edit any of the batch's details or any of the transactions in the batch. Additionally, the system locks the batch and prevents you from reopening any closed batch.
To close a batch, you must have Offering View + Add/Edit + Close Batch access rights assigned to your login credentials. Access rights are assigned in the Administration module. Access to this module is restricted to organization administrators only.
