Axxess Hospice provides a closed accounting functionality so users can maintain static financial data before and on a selected closing date. This feature enables users to better track and manage financial data for seamless billing operations and continued billing compliance.
To use the closed accounting feature, organizations must set a closing date in Company Setup. To set a closing date, users must have permission to view and edit information in Company Setup and permission to view, add and edit remittances.
Once a closing date is set, users cannot change payments or remittances after the selected date unless they have permission to override closed accounting.
To give a user permission to set the closed accounting date, edit the user’s profile and navigate to the Permissions tab. In the Administration section, select View and Edit next to the Company Setup permission.
People tab ➜ People Center ➜ Edit ➜ Permissions tab ➜ Administration section ➜ Company Setup ➜ View/Edit
Scroll down to the Billing section and select View, Add and Edit next to the Remittance permission.

To give a user permission to change adjustments and remittances after the closing date has passed, select View next to the Override Closed Accounting permission in the Billing section.
People tab ➜ People Center ➜ Select User ➜ Edit ➜ Permissions tab ➜ Billing section ➜ Override Closed Accounting ➜ View
