Accounting Period Status

Open in the interactive reference

An accounting period status is the open or closed state of one accounting period for one legal entity and accounting book.

The same period can be open for one legal entity and closed for another, so each legal entity and accounting book has its own status for it.

postable says whether journal entries can be posted to the general ledger in the period. It is true when the status is open or reopened. It doesn't reflect locks that apply only to some types of journal entry.
