FI Close/Open Period: S_ALR_87003642
Hi,
Users are doing the UAT for open/close posting period in FI but the system is 'Client xxx has status 'not modifiable' ' and client role is Training and no changes allowd in SCC4 , kindly let me know what should be status in SCC4 so that system does not prompt for a transport request and at the same carry out the changes to open/close posting period.
Thanks
SureshHi,
The opening/closing of posting periods is a strictly authorisation issue to be handled by the system administrator or
a super user identified by the Client. This is not a transaction where all the users need to be trained. The
T.Code ob52 or S_ALR_87003642 can be authorised to the specific user only on security grounds.

OPEN\CLOSE POSTING PERIOD
Hi everyone,
I'm working on a system with different company code, each company code has a posting period variant.
My question is:
Is there the possibility (by tcode 'OB52') that more users can, at the same time, open\close posting periods related to them posting period variant?
In practice, my customer asks me:
AT THE SAME TIME: - user x (company X) modifies posting periods of PPV '001' and user y (company Y) modifies posting periods of PPV '002'...
Is it possible???
thank you in advance..Hi Jason,
Probably I may not recommend this. These are most critical activities. We do not the dependency of the tables. Meaning that the table could be linked to many other tables and fields in database. This may end up in data integrity issues.
These are not the activities that we should do on a daily basis. Normally we open and close the period on a monthly basis and open this screen for few minutes or so. I would suggest first user can go and change and then he come back and the second person may change.
Since this a very critical activity, anything wrong would impact all other modules, as the data is moving from all other modules to FI.
Therefore, I would only recommend one by one to change OB52 OR give the authority to a centralized person in order to open and close the periods.

Where we have to open and close posting periods in asset accounting
hi sap gurus
can anybody give where we have to open and close posting periods in asset accounting
thank you
venkatareddyHi Venkatareddy,
You make specifications for fiscal years and posting periods in the SAP R/3 System in Customizing for Financial Accounting. This is done in the fiscal year variant in the global parameters of the company code. These settings are, in general, also binding for Asset Accounting. The depreciation periods in Asset Accounting then correspond to the posting periods in Financial Accounting.<b> It is usually not necessary to create a separate fiscal year variant for Asset Accounting.</b>
The period control in the depreciation key determines the start and end of depreciation when asset transactions are posted . The period control determines the relationship between the calendar period in which the asset transaction is posted and the depreciation period.
These calendar periods are independent of the posting periods in Financial Accounting. The only restriction is that the beginning of the first calendar period and the end of the last calendar period defined in a period control have to match the start date and final date of the fiscal year in Financial Accounting.
Kindly let me know if this useful for you -
Two intervals in Open and Close Posting Period (OB52)
What is the purpose of the two intervals (period 1 and period 2) in Open and Close Posting Periods (transaction OB52)?
Hi,
Financial statements cannot be prepared on the last day of the accounting period... to find out the correct profit and to determine the correct financial positing... sometimes you may require to make some adjustment to accounting records after the closing of the accounting year... like adjustments for expenses payable, income receivable, writting off bad debts ...etc.
For posting those transactions....period 2 is maintained ..which are also called as special periods... to make the postings in these periods ...special authorisation is required.....
Period 1 is for regular postings ...

Open and Close Posting Periods - 0B52 (FICO)
Dear Friend,
It will be much appreciated if you can help me with the below question.
What are the years to be mentioned in the year columns (_Underlined below_) in the Open and Close Posting Period (0B52) for the Fiscal Year 2011- 2012.
i.e., From Period 1 (1), Year (____), To Period (12), Year (____), From Period 2 (13), Year (_____), To Period (16), Year (____).
What is the significance of these years.
Thanks in advance,
Kiran RD.
Moderator: Please, avoid asking basic questionsHi:
The column on the right From to TO is for special period opening and closing and columns on the left are for normal period opening and closing. If your fiscal year starts from January then for keeping open October period only and closing other , you will have to maintain all 10 in from and to along with year 2011 against account type A,S,K,D,M... I hope it will help you.

HI All,
Is there any chance to control the user to open and close another company code posting period variant in TCODE: S_ALR_87003642.
In our system we are using the same client for different countries. So user can able to change the other country company code posting periods.
We would like to control either on the country (or) organizational unit(company code) (or) posting period variant so that user can only open/close their country / company code posting periods.
Our present authorization role for open and close posting period contain the auth.Obj. : S_TABU_DIS.
Please share your knowledge if you come across this problem..
Thanks in advance..Hey Sandhya,
Congratz, this can be done using linbe item authorization with the object S_TABU_LIN.
Field ORG_CRIT - Value 02
Field ORG_FIeld1 - Value ZT001B
We have successfully done it in our client.
You need to contact your BASIS consultant for this.

Open and close posting periods on test system
Hello together,
to open and close posting periods is only allowed on the develepment und the production client, but not on the test client.
It is an customizing object, but the flag "current settings" is set, so you also can change the settings on the production system.
In the test system, it only can be changed by opening the system for customizing using SCC4 und change to "Changes without automatic recording".
Is there a way to allow open and close posting periods on the test system without opening the client for customizing?
Regards,
MichaelHi Michael,
Please, refer to the note 356483. Proceed as following:
Call transaction SE54
Enter the Customizing object (view or table)
Select "Generated objects"
Choose "Create/change"
Select "no, or user, recording routine" in the bottom part of the screen
Save the change
The view in your case is V_T001B.

OB52 : open and close FI period by sales office
Dear experts,
I have a client who wants to open and close FI period by sales office.
After some researches, I find that itu2019s only possible to create the variants by FI company.
But what kind of solution I could suggest to the client ?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Best Regards.
Nathaliehi
in ob52, you can define periods by account type i.e. A,K,D,M,S.
in your case if your sales office shall cater to Customers, you can specify those particular Account codes.
here i assume that a sales office shall cater to only certain group of customer accounts.

How to open and close posting period for both material , n invoicing

Period Open T.code: MMP1

Automate the opening of MM periods
How can you automate the monthly opening of MM periods (transaction MMPV - program RMMMPERI) with
SM36?
RMMMPERI accepts a period/year or a date.
If you enter a date the period is derived by it.
1. create a variant and check the attribute 'selection variable' for the parameter date. Then click the button 'Selection variables' and set the current date. Every time this variant is used the parameter DATE is filled with the current date.
2. create a job for RMMMPERI with the variant created in the preceding step. Set it as periodic.
If you're not using a fiscal year variant simply schedule it as monthly (to be executed the first day of the month).
If you are using a fiscal year variant you'd have to define a calendar with only the first day of each period defined as working
day and use it in the periodicity restrictions.
Another possibility:
Write a very simple ABAP which run daily to check if the period has changed and submit RMMMPERI.
