Allow Posting to Previous Period - MMRV

Dear Friends,
We can open / close MM periods thru MMPV & see the currently open periods thru MMRV.
Now when we check current Period in MMRV, we see three periods:
Current period                 07 2009 (October 2009)
Previous period               06 2008 (Septermber 2009)
Last period in prev.year  12 2008 (March 2009)
Here we have also Allowed posting to Previous Periods.
Thus current open period is 07 2009 (October 2009) & we can also post in Septermber 2009 (06 2009).
But the real problem is can we post some MM Documents in March 2009 (i.e. 12 2008)? Currently when we try system gives error - Posting only possible in 07 2009 & 06 2009.
I know it is SAP standard to allow only two MM months to be open at a given point of time.
Then what is the use of "Last period in prev.year  12 2008" in MMRV screen?
Waiting for early replies...
Thanks,
Jignesh Mehta

In SAP system, you can only post stocks to one back period only by checking the Check Box in MMRV Transaction.
The entries you mentioned (Current Period, Previous Period, etc. are just information purpose only.
In certain cases, for ex: changing valuation Class etc., you have to check the stocks in Current, previous period and last period in previous year.
So you can get information of periods in MMRV Transactions.
For back posting to other periods (other than previous period), you should use Transaction MMPI.

  • Allow posting to previous period only for invoices (only invoices).

    Hi gurus,
    We want to cancel invoice document s(MR8M) with the same date that the invoice was created (previous period). We know that we can use MMRV transaction for this but MMRV will posting of all MM documents, whereas we need to restrict posting  to previous period only for invoices.
    It´s possible? Can you please help on this with complete steps?
    thanks!!!

    I don´t know if there is a better way to do that, but you could flag the field "Allow Posting to Previous Period" in MMRV and configure the posting date in all the transaction (MIGO, MIRO, MB1A,MB1B, etc) for only display except MR8M transaction.

  • Allow posting to previous period (Backposting) in MM period close

    Hi,
    Does anyone know the implications/consequences of allowing posting to previous period (Backposting) when doing MM period closing?
    Thanks.

    Hi Irene,
    We need to close posting period in MM module to allow posting in new posting period. However, if there are still some transactions need to be posted for the just closed period, we allow posting for closed period as well.
    However, we can allow postings only for one previous period in MM. We can't post to earlier posting periods.
    After all the transactions get posted in initial days of new posting period, we can close previous posting period in FI. Automatically system will not allow posting for MM transactions that has financial implication.
    Hope this helps
    Cheers,
    Som

  • Backposting is disallowed still we are able to post in previous period

    Dear All,
    We have disallowed backposting for one company code (MMRV)& it is also disallowed in OMSY transaction for that company code.Still we are able to post MR21 document in previous period.
    Can you please let me know why this is happening & how we can prevent this from happening.
    Thanks,
    Amit

    OSS Note 1134322 - MMRV and return postings to the previous period
    clearly explains that MR21 is not possible :
    Transaction MMRV closes the previous period for general goods movements, invoices, and so on. The following postings are still possible in the previous period after you close the previous period.
    Goods movements for the physical inventory
    Closing entry for actual costing in the material ledger
    For the following operations, you can set whether postings in the previous periods are possible even after the previous periods have been closed:
    Price changes (after you implement Note 1238496)
    How did you check that this note is note in your system?
    it comes with a support package.
    use SE38 and display the source of RCKM_MR21F01
    search with CTRL+F for the value 1238496
    if you find it, then the note is certainly in your system.
    so any user who has

  • How to zero previous period stocks?

    Hi MM gurus,
    I want to activate batch management tick for existing materials which are not activated a batch management tick. To activate batch management tick it is needed to maintain zero stocks in current period and previous period.
    Current period is not a problem. But how to zero previous period stocks?
    Is there any way by posting a physical inventory adjustment to previous period? If so how to post a PI doc to previous period.
    Please reply me ASAP.
    thanks
    Sandun

    You can do it with movement type 201.
    Make sure that it is allowed to post to previous periods (MMRV transaction for MM- but as well in finnace needed)
    if previous period stock is 50
    and current stock is 100
    then you just need to do a  201 with a date from previous period for 50 and a 201 for 50 in the current period.
    but
    if previous period stock is 50
    and current stock is 20
    then you need to do a 202 movement in current period for 30 followed by  a 201 movement for 50 previous period

  • Depreciation was posted wrongly in previous period

    Dear All,
    Our fiscal year start from July - June. Now we are in 7th period. In 6th period for one of the Goodwill asset depreciation has been posted mistakenly. Now user is asking to reverse in 7th period. is it possible to reverse depreciation in current period which was posted in previous period.
    Please help me in this.
    Thanks and regards,
    Mr.Rao.

    Hi Srinu,
    Now our Fiscal year is 2012 started form July-2011 to June-2012.
    This Goodwill asset has been capitalized on Current Fiscal year 6th period (20.12.2011).
    For this asset depreciation posting has been activated for 01 & 05 depreciation areas. For 05 depreciation area one  depreciation expenses G/L account has been maintained in AO90 for the account determination. But this G/L account has not been created in this company code.
    When the depreciation job was ran, only 01 depreciation area posted and the 05 depreciation area has not been posted.
    I have created the same scenario in Testing client. When I execute the depreciation for the 7th period it is saying that "Last posting run terminated (Restart in period 2012 006)" . When I run the AFAB for 6th period by selecting the Restart button, the system is saying that "Account 'Expense account for ordinary depreciat.' could not be found for area 05".
    If I request my client to create this G/L account for this company code, may be they will not accept because it is not required to create.
    Could you please suggest me in this.
    Thanks and regards,
    Mr.Rao.

  • Previous period posintg

    Greetings!!!
    I have maintained authorization group F_BKPF_BUP to restrict posting in previous period.. It works fine for all tcodes except CO11
    Any solution plz
    Regards

    If you look at the TCode CO11 in SU24 you will see that the authorization object F_BKPF_BUP - Accounting Document: Authorization for Posting Periods is not checked in this transaction.  You change the "Check indicator" for this object in CO11 so that it is checked.  You can check this suggestion by viewing other TCodes in SU24 where this object does restrict backposting.

    Dear Experts,
    I took a old shipment & do a new shipment cost but when I went to go for MIRO posting below error message showing. Fyki, every month we run S_ALR_87003642, MMPV & MMRV properly then why below message showing prior MIRO posting. Is there anything else what we are missing? or How can I resolve this issue?
    "QUOTE
    Allowed posting periods: 06 2010 / 05 2010 / 12 2009
    Message no. M8022
    Diagnosis
    The posting date is not within one of the allowed posting periods.
    This can be due to one of two reasons:
    The correct current period has not been set in the system.
    For the system, the first of the specified periods is the current period. At the beginning of a new period, your system administrator must change the current period in the material master record using the function "Close period". This has not yet been done.
    You have entered the wrong date in the field "Posting date".
    Procedure
    Check the posting date and correct it if necessary. If your entry is correct, inform your system administrator that the "period closing" procedure has not yet been implemented.

    Hello ,
    MIRO doc can be posted on a particular posting date if:
    1. MM Period is open for the posting date .
    2.FI period is open for the posting date .
    No matter what date the preceding documents had been created on ( PO /MIGO/ML81N ) the posting date in MIRO doc shud fall withing the open MM & FI periods.
    check the Fiscal year variant in OBY6 trxn, Basing on that the MM periods will be maintained in OBYC trxn..
    the below are some of the Fiscal year periods normally we use
    K4--- Is for Calender year( Jan to Dec), that means jan is 01, & Feb 02 etc..
    V3--- Is April to march, that means Peroid 01 should be April & 02 is May etc..
    V9----Is Oct.- Sept., here period 01 should be Oct & Period 02 should be Nov etc...
