What is Locked Through Date in Transaction Matching?

The Locked Through Date is the period end date for the latest locked period.

Periods can be locked or unlocked in any order and there can be unlocked periods between locked periods. Therefore, the locked through date will be based on the latest locked period.

If you are using either the Account Analysis with Transaction Matching or the Balance Comparison with Transaction Matching formats, the matching activities for the profiles will be restricted for locked periods and have a Locked Through Date.

Note:

Transaction Matching Only profiles will not have a Locked Through Date.

Here's an example of a Locked Through Date of 31-Mar-2022:

Table 9-5 Locked Through Date Example

Period Start Date End Date Period Status
Jan 22 01-Jan 22 31-Jan-22 Locked
Feb 22 01-Feb-22 28-Feb-22 Locked
Mar 22 01-Mar-22 31-Mar-22 Closed
Apr 22 01-Apr-22 30-Apr-22 Open

In the above example, if the user locks the March period, the Locked Through Date will be 31-Mar-2022.

If the user unlocks February, the Locked Through Date will continue to be 31-Mar-2022.
