Closing/Opening Material Master Posting Periods

The instance is ECC 6.0
Can we roll back the material master posting period. We had some issue that the material master was rolled over by 2-3 periods accidentally which is corrected now.
OSS note 1082841 was applied so the periods can not be rolled over going forward. Now was going to some testing, but not sure if the problem is corrected or not and wanted to know what is the way to roll back the period if it is rolled over.

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

    HI
    how to open and close posting period for both material  , n invoicing , AM NEW TO SD , SO ALL DOUBTS I DO POST IN HERE PLEASE DONT MIND

    Hi Sunaina
    Period Open T.code: MMP1
    Period Close T-Code: MMPV
    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.

  • 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.

  • 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 Period (OB52)

    Dear Experts,
    My client wants to close the posting period of the previous month. 
    First I went to transaction OB52 to define an entry From Per. 1 2008 To Per. 12 2009 to open all the posting period for the year.  But when the time passes, do I have to manually change the From Per. back to the current month (e.g From Per.1 2008 changed to From Per. 2 2008 and so on)
    If this is the case, is there any way to make this a automatic function to do this.
    Points will be rewarded.
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    You define posting periods in your fiscal year variants. You can open and close these posting periods for posting. As many periods as you require can be open for posting simultaneously. Special periods can be open for closing postings during the period-end closing.
    You have the following options for opening and closing posting periods:
    - Posting Period Variants: You can specify which company codes are open for posting in a posting period variant. Posting period variants are cross-company code and you have to assign them to your company codes.
    - Account Type: You can differentiate the opening and closing of posting periods by account type. This means that for a specific posting period, postings can be permitted to customer accounts, but not to vendor accounts.
    - Account Interval: You can differentiate the opening and closing of posting periods by account intervals. This means that you only open a posting period for posting to a specific account.
    Path for making the settings for opening and closing posting periods:
    Customizing for Financial Accounting under Financial Accounting Global Settings -> Document -> Posting Periods
    For detailed example for opening and closing posting periods please refer the link below:
    http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_03/helpdata/EN/96/8b300943ce11d189ee0000e81ddfac/frameset.htm

  • 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 questions

    Hi:
           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.

  • Opening of back posting period

    Hi,
      I want to know can we open the back posting period  what problem we can face if we do this  like  now it is  Jan 2010  so posting is allowed in Dec. 2009   but if we want to pen  Feb 2009 fiscal year 2008  what can be the problem.
    regards,
       zafar

    Hi
    Basically it is possible to reopen a previously closed period. However,
    it is NOT advisable to do so because the valuation data of the previous
    period could get affected. So first you need to pay more attention is
    that not to repeat such error operation in your system especially in PRD system.
    Please refer to note:
    545952 FAQ: Period closing program
    To find out what you should do when you meet this problem.
    If you decide to proceed with this process, please review the
    documentation of program RMMMINIT (to see this documentation, please
    do the following: run transaction SE38, enter program RMMMINIT, select
    the 'documentation' radio button and click 'display').
    487381 - RMMMINIT: Protection against unintentionial execution
    Here with the report you may find any data may get inconsistency goods
    movement after you reopen the period and you need to clear them.

  • 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
    venkatareddy

    Hi 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

  • 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,
