            <StepsIntro>The reconciliation process of the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tc/domains/reco#inv.accr" role="option">Invoice Accrual</GUIRef> 3 reconciliation group, the Goods Received Not Invoiced (GRNI)
			 transactions, consists of the following steps.</StepsIntro>
            <Step>
               <StepTitle>Close periods</StepTitle>
               <Paragraph>Usually, reconciliation is performed over a specific
				fiscal period. Before you start the reconciliation process, use the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/tf/gld/tfgld1206m000" role="session">Close Periods (tfgld1206m000)</GUIRef> session to close the Integration period so that no new
				transactions can be entered.</Paragraph>
               <Paragraph>However, if you generate and print the reconciliation
				reports, ERP Enterprise does not
				check the period status. You can print the reports whenever you wish,
				independent of the period status.</Paragraph>
