Click Yes to continue or click Cancel to return to the manual journal in order to make adjustments.

If there are multiple rounds of audit changes, Month 13-20 can be selected.
If you choose Month 13, then the journal posts as normal, except the journal fiscal month will post as 13 regardless of the journal date entered.
You are required to select a month from the Month 13+ pull-down when the following conditions have been met:
The Month 13+ profile permission is enabled via Setup > Profiles > Budgeting/General Ledger tab.
The previous Fiscal Year is closed.
