Authroisation group in posting periods

Dear Sapians,
Kindly help me in this issue
I have an authorisation group in open and closed posting periods(OB52), so that i am maintaining posting periods in INterval 1 as from 09 to 09 which is applicable for  authorisation grouo users. in inerval 2 i am maintaining posting periods as 10 to 10 which is applicable for all, that means who doesnt contains the authorisation group.
But here the problem is the user who dont have an authorisation group is able to post in posting period 09.
kindly look in to this issue, it is very  important for me.
And the user who is posting 9 th period can only post to some g/l accounts.

  • Open and Closing of Posting Periods in FI

    Is it possible to open/close periods in FI per account? I'm using SAP ECC 6.0
    Moderator: Please, avoid asking basic questions

    Hi,
    Yes, you can use authorization group: "A posting period can be made available to only a limited set of users using the authorization group"
    You assign the authorization group in GL master.
    Assign authorization object F_BKPF_BUP to user ids.
    Open / close FI periods with AuGr in t-code: S_ALR_87003642
    You can refer the help from S_ALR_87003642

  • Assign posting periods to authorization group in tcode S_ARL_87003642

    Hello,
    I want to restrict posting periods for some users. Therefore, I have created 2 functions associated to 2 authorization groups.
    In transaction S_ARL_87003642, when I try to assign different posting periods to each authorization group to the same company code (Posting Period Variant) it appears a message saying u2018Target key must be different from source keyu2019.
    What am I doing wrong? Do you know how can I restrict posting periods for some users?
    Thanks and regards
    Ana Rita

    Dear,
    You simply have to define authorisation groups in OB52 and assign this group to F_bkpf_bup in SU01 against user proflie as desired. Take basis help.

    Dear FI-CO Guru's

    and
    2) Certain group of users will allow for posting normal and special periods

    Regards
    GuruPrsad

    Hi Guru,
    If only a limited set of users is to be able to post in a particular
    posting period, proceed as follows:
    Add the posting period authorization (authorization object
    F_BKPF_BUP) to the authorizations of the selected users. Assign an
    authorization group (e.g. '0001').
    Enter the account type '+' for the posting period variant to which
    the restriction is to apply. Enter the period(s) whose use is to be restricted in the first period, those which are available to all
    users in the second period, and the authorization group (e.g.
    '0001') in the last column.
    For this you need to consult with Basis people authorization matrix.

    Hi,
    I have recently configured Seasonality Groups which was released in APO SCM7 EHP2 with the Demand Planning Worklist. We are using posting periods (fiscal periods) in all planning books and background jobs,
    The following notes have been implemented in our system: 1871842-1879577-1900933-1855921, and our latest APO support pack is SAPKY70204.

  • Restrict posting period only a limited set of users using Auth Group

    Hi all,
    Can someone help me in restricting posting period to only a limited number of users?
    Currently OB52 settings look like below:
    From Per.1  Year  To Period           From per.2   Year    To Period
        7                 2009         8                          8              2008            8
    My requirement is:
    I want to only few users to post in the 7th period and all others to post in the 8th period.
    I know this can be done via authorization group: Can someone please help me with the steps invloved in solving the same?
    Thanks in advance

    Hi Alex,
    Thanks for your response!
    I have added F_BKPF_BUP object manually in the test role and assigned 0002 auth group in it.
    I have created auth group 0002 and assigned table T001B in SE54.
    Auth group 0002 is then assigned in the OB52 at the last column. This should restrict the posting for period 1 which i need to restrict for some users.
    Now as per the logic, if we dont assign any auth group, users should not be able to post for that period. But in my case user is able to post successfully via F-02.
    Please help me as we need to implement this before month end.
    Many thanks for your valuable help!
    Thanks

  • Opening of third Posting periods for authorizing group

    Hi,
    On the current posting periods screen we have two possibilities to enter current posting periods and the posting periods for the authorizing group in order to limit user access. Is it possible to create third posting period for authorizing group beside these two possibilities of entering two different posting periods?
    Thanks

    I know this process. But it is not my problem.
    On the screen we have only two fields to mention "Period 1 and Period 2". My question is how we can create new field for Period 3 (for authorised groups).
    I don't want to create new line, but I want to create new field. Please check the posting period table to perceive my question (Code: S_ALR_87003642).

  • Open and close posting periods for at ledger level

    Hello,
    We are running on ECC6 with the new ledger. We have activated two ledgers (the leading ledger and a non-leading ledger for group reporting). Our client would like to manage the posting period at ledger level.
    Example: during the month closing, the Leading ledger is closed on the previous month at Day +4, while the non-leading ledger is closed at Day +5.
    Is there a way to open/close period at ledger level only ?
    Thank you.
    Best regards,
    Steven Moulinot

    It is possible to assign a different posting period variant to company code in a non-leading ledgers (the extreme right field) in the foll. node in SPRO.

    Hi,
    This requires bit of ABAP help.
    WE have achieved this scenario successfully based on the information provided below -(found the source on the internet!)
    Goto SE11 copy the view V_T001B to ZV_T001B_000X (000X indicate the Posting Variant)
    In Change mode, tabstrips Selection Conditions Insert line 2 with
    Table     Field Name   Operator   Comparative Value    AND/OR
    T001B   BUKRS           EQ            '000X'                          AND
    Save your entries
    Third Step :-

    Function Group          Z00F0
    Maintenance Type     One Type
    Overview Screen       65

    Final Step :-
    Goto SE93, Create a new transaction code ZOB52_000X
    Start object - Transaction with parameters (parameter transaction)
    Transaction SM30, Tick Skip initial screen
    Name of screen field       Value
    VIEWNAME                     ZV_T001B_000X
    UPDATE                           X
    Save your entries.
    Now have the ABAPer to have company code on the selection screen.  Based on user selection, invoke the corresponding neww transaction code ZOB52_000X which will only display the 
    Posting Variant that you have define in your table view.
    Hope this solves your problem.

              The variant for posting periods is defined for every company code. The name of this variant is identical to the company code name. Every company code is allocated to this variant with the same name.

  • Restrict the posting period opening and closing for some users

    Dear SAP gurus,
    I want to restrict some users to open the posting period and for some users close posting periods. I knew that these can be done through authorization group. Pls explain how to create authorization groups and how to use those?  Anybody can help me out?
    Regards,
    Venkata Reddy

    Dear Venkatareddy,
    There are two sets of period in OB52. The first set of "From" and "To" is for the authorised group and second set is for the non authorised group. In the "Authorisation Group" (last column) give some 4 charecters name. Say "FICO".
    Now ask the basis to attach the object "FICO" for the users who are authorised say user1, user 2 and user3.
    Now in the first set of period you can maintain say 1 2008 to 16 2008 and in the second set 1 2008 to 1 2008.
    So except user1,2 and 3, all the others can post only in 1 2008. Whereas users 1,2 and3 can post in all the periods of 2008.
    Assign points if useful

  • Authorization for opening & Closing posting periods - OB52

    Hi,
    Is there any way to set authorization for opening & closing of posting periods in OB52?
    My scenario:
    I have 2 company codes - A & B assigned to 2 different posting period variant - say PPA & PPB.
    The user belonging to CoCd A should not be able to open/close posting period of CoCd B and vice versa.
    Is this possible through any authorization settings?
    Request your help on this.
    Regards,
    Sridevi

    Hi Sridevi
    Please go through the following:
    You can assign authorization groups for permitted posting periods. This means that, for example, some posting periods can only be opened for particular users within monthly or annual closing. You can only assign the authorization group at document header level and it only affects period 1. The authorization object is called F_BKPF_BUP (Accounting document: Authorizations for posting periods). Read the corresponding chapter on "User maintenance" in the "Assigning authorizations" topic.
    "User maintenance"
    Due to the modular authorization concept of the system, you can define authorization profiles which are tailored to the workplace of your employees. You can, for example, assign authorization to a workplace in the Accounts Receivable, Accounts Payable or General Ledger Accounting areas.
    By assigning authorizations you define which business-related objects your employees are allowed to process and which editing functions are allowed.
    In the following activities for authorization management, you must carry out the following for employees who are to work with the system:
    Assign authorizations
    The authorizations are assigned by specifying permitted values for the pre-defined objects.
    Define profiles
    In the SAP system, authorizations are grouped together in workplace profiles. Therefore one or more profiles must be allocated to the individual employee in the master record.
    I hope this helps.

  • Restrict Access in OB52 by Posting Period Variant

    Hello,
    In our company there are many posting period variants. We want to restrict the access for opening and closing posting periods in OB52 by Posting period variant. i.e. User can open/close for a specific posting period variant and not all.
    On searching on this forum, i found some solutions saying that one can create Screen variants according to Posting period Variant but i am not very clear on it.
    It would be very helpful, if someone can provide detailed solution for this scenario; or share one's experience on this.
    Thanks and regards,
    Ankur

    Inside OB52, the last column on the right is titled AuGr. Expanded, that stands for Authorization Group. Hit <F1> after keeping the cursor in that field and read what SAP has to say about that field.
    That is the answer to what you need - a posting period can be made available to only a limited set of users using the Authorization Group. You'll need to enlist the help of your resident BASIS team members for putting this into use.
    Remember to assign points if found useful.

  • Re-open the Previous posting period

    hi...
    we have closed the posting period for the month of 01-02(april-may) and open the 03-04(june-july)...
    but now we want to open the previous posting period i.e. 01-02(april-may) again...so how could we do this..
    one solution i have got is that...
    1. go to OX18 delete all the assignment for that company code and plant.
    2. go to OMSY and change the posting period..
    3.  go to OX18 and reassign the plant and company code again...
    this is the right method to do that..?
    will there be any -ive implications if I open the previous period by this procedure..?
    or suggest me some other way to do that...
    Thanks in advance

    Hi
    You can open Closed MM periods but be careful because SAP does recommend opening closed MM periods.
    Steps are :
    1) Tcode MMPI --from Tool Bar select - System - User Profile - Own Data - In parameter Tab Enter "MMPI_READ_NOTE" in parameter Field.
    Try to remove assignment of plants from company code.
    Now Go to -
    T-Code OMSY & Set the required Period.
    Re-assign Plants to Company Code & Check whether correct preriod is open thru T-Code - MMRV
    Now use T-code - OMWD to Assign Valuation grouping code to Valuation area because the earlier data gets deleted when assignment of Plants was removed.
    Use the transaction code OMS2 then select FERT (or any other Material Type used by your company)
    Then click on the quantity and value update.
    Select your plant or valuation area and put Tick Marks in Value update and Quantity update
    Even check this link...Reopening the posting period that was closed
    This will definitely reslove your problem.
    Thanking you.
