Can I confirm a transaction that has a date prior to the company's closing date?

Thanks for posting here today, @ajuarezcpa.

I have some information about confirming transactions from a close book. Closing your books prevents you from unwanted changes to your past transactions. This locks your books so no one can edit your accounting data before the closing date.

However, if you need to make some changes or confirmation, you can do so by following the steps below.

1. Sign in to QuickBooks Online as a primary admin or company admin. Only admins can make these changes.
2. Go to Gear and then choose Accounts and Settings.
3. Select the Advanced tab. Then, tick the pencil icon in the Accounting section.
4. Remove the closing date and then make the changes or confirm a transaction.
5. Click Save and then Done.

More about closing books is found in this article: Close your books in QuickBooks Online.
