2.) Period 14 ( Transactions 15th - 31st Dec 2007)
Q1.)Should Dec depreciation run on period 14?
Q2.) If yes, will the depreciation run capture the depreciation from 1st - 31st Dec 2007?
Q3.) We have tried to run Dec depreciation in period 14 but error "According to the posting cycle, you should post period 012 next."
Pls advise

2.) Which period to open in OB52.
Kindly assist as this is urgent. Points will be rewarded. Thank you

Answer 1

Dear Hari,
Thank you for the helpful points. Rewarded.
FYI, our cut off date is 14th Dec 2007. Any transactions after this date will go to period 14. In OB52, we set only period 14 open to block user from posting to other periods. Will this affect the depreciation run (given scenario where we run AFAB for period 12)?
When we run AFAB for period 12, this is the error we get:
Period 12 is not allowed
Message no. F5567
Diagnosis
The period entered (12) is different from the period calculated (14) and is also not in the interval for special periods (013 to 016).
System Response
Error.
Procedure
Correct the value entered for the posting period.
What shoud we do?
