FP Start/Clear Cycle
If a cycle has been started, that accounting month is locked and tickets cannot be posted to it. If tickets should come in that should be included in a cycle that has already been started, then a clear cycle can be performed. This will open the cycle/month that was locked and allow tickets to be booked to that accounting month.
Clearing a cycle does not undo Tickets that have already been extracted to Revenue and, therefore, will not pay tickets again that have already been paid. Clearing a cycle will move tickets from the historical daily run ticket to the Entry daily run ticket so that those tickets that have not already been extracted to revenue can be changed or new tickets added. Once ticket changes have been made or late tickets added, the Start Cycle should be run again.
