Zuora Accounting Periods API

A key step in configuring Finance is to create accounting periods in Zuora to match your company's financial calendar. This allows Zuora to produce reports and data exports organized by accounting periods, and to perform the work of closing the accounting periods for the revenue sub-ledger.
