A finite poset $P$ is called "simplicial", if it has the smallest element $\hat{ 0}$, and every interval $[\hat{ 0}, x]$ is a boolean algebra. The face poset of a simplicial complex is a typical example. Generalizing the Stanley-Reisner ring of a simplicial complex, Stanley assigned the graded ring $A_P$ to $P$. This ring has been studied from both combinatorial and topological perspective. In this paper, we will give a concise description of a dualizing complex of $A_P$, which has many applications.
