+# Cannot Change Accounting Date or Perform Budget Check Due to Unjournalized Reversing Distributions and Closed Fiscal Period
+
+## Symptoms
+
+When attempting to change the accounting date on a purchase order, getting the error of Cannot Change Accounting Date or Perform Budget Check Due to Unjournalized Reversing Distributions and Closed Fiscal Period.
+Additionally, the budget check cannot be performed because the fiscal period associated with the accounting date is not within an open fiscal calendar period.
+
+## Cause
+The accounting date on the purchase order falls within a closed fiscal period. As a result, the accounting distribution cannot be reset.
+
+## Workaround
+Follow the steps below to cancel the purchase order and create a new one if necessary:
+Cancel the purchase order.
+Navigate to General ledger > Calendars > Ledger calendars and open the relevant fiscal period (e.g., 2023 Period 9).
+Confirm the purchase order.
+Set the status of the fiscal period (opened in Step 2) back to On hold once the confirmation is complete.
+
+Changing the ledger calendar period is a viable workaround for resolving the issue when the accounting date falls in a closed fiscal period. For further guidance on modifying ledger calendar assignments, refer to the official documentation:
