3. Confirm by clicking Yes.
4. Click Assign to Period and assign the claim to the correct period.
5. In the Choose a Period dropdown, select the period the claim belongs to. You cannot add claims to a closed period. Each claim can only be added to one period.
6. Click Save.
7. Go to the Statement Periods Management Dashboard and locate the period you are closing. Under Actions click the three dots.
8. Select Finalize Period.
Once successful, the status of the period will be set to Closed.
After finalizing the period you can proceed to roll over funding sources and generate funding sources for the next quarter. See article: How to Roll Over Funding Sources for a New Quarter.
