Vendor Missed the Accrual Deadline: What Happens Next?

Short Answer

If a vendor misses the accrual submission deadline, they cannot submit accruals for that period in Brightflag.

Once the deadline passes:

• The accrual period automatically closes

• The next accrual period automatically opens

Reminder Emails Before the Deadline

Vendors receive automated reminder emails before the submission deadline.

Can the Accrual Period Be Reopened?

No.

Once an accrual period closes, it cannot be reopened. 

This is a system-controlled process.

What Are the Options After the Deadline?

If accruals still need to be recorded:

Manually enter the accrual amount on behalf of the vendor.
