Answer 1

"One of your retro element types will have a post termination rule of Actuel Termination, or Last Standard Process. But this should be Final Close, since retro wants to create an entry after the termination date."
Is it possible that it is the other way round that is may be the monthly earnings or deductions elements are defined as final close?
please help!
