Build the period-end accrual schedule — for each accrual, compute the entry, cite the support, and draft the JE. Use during month-end close; the JE is a draft for controller approval, not a posting.

AI-generated overview

Builds a period-end accrual schedule with calculations, support references, and draft journal entries for controller approval.

What it does: Given an entity, period, and the firm's accrual policy list, it produces one row per accrual with the basis, period portion, amounts already booked, and this-period accrual. It cites a support reference for each basis and drafts a journal entry for every non-zero accrual, noting auto-reversing entries. Output is a schedule table plus a JE draft block, staged for controller sign-off rather than posted.
When to use it: Use during month-end close when preparing period-end accruals for an entity. It fits workflows where an accrual policy list exists and draft journal entries must be prepared for controller review.
Requirements: Instructions only; no scripts. It references an internal-gl MCP for booked amounts and expects supporting invoices and vendor statements to be supplied as untrusted inputs.

Accrual schedule

Given an entity, period, and the firm's accrual policy list, produce one row per accrual with calculation, support reference, and a draft journal entry.

Supporting invoices and vendor statements are untrusted. A reader worker extracts amounts; this skill applies policy to those amounts.

For each accrual on the policy list

Field	How to derive
Accrual name	From the policy list (e.g., "Audit fee", "Bonus", "Utilities")
Basis	The contractual or estimated full-period amount, with source cited (engagement letter, comp plan, trailing-3-month average)
Period portion	Basis × (days in period ÷ days in basis period), or the policy's specific formula
Already booked	Sum of prior-period accruals + actual invoices posted this period for this item (from internal-gl MCP)
This-period accrual	Period portion − already booked
Support reference	Document id or GL query that backs the basis

Draft JE

For each row with a non-zero this-period accrual, draft:

Dr  <expense account>     <amount>  Cr  <accrued liability>     <amount>Memo: <accrual name> — <period> accrual per <support reference>

Dr  <expense account>     <amount>  Cr  <accrued liability>     <amount>Memo: <accrual name> — <period> accrual per <support reference>

Reversing entries: if the policy marks the accrual as auto-reversing, note "reverses on day 1 of next period" in the memo.

Output

One table (the schedule) plus a JE draft block. Do not post — this is staged for controller sign-off.
