Closing Period Access and Stock Transactions

Hi Experts,
I have a user who does not have "Period Status: Closing Period" access (in General Authorisations) yet the user can still post Stock Transactions for Periods set to "Closing Period"
The Stock Transaction (ie Goods Issue) has an effect on the GL. Is this correct behavior?
Thanks
Greig

Hi
It looks like clear violation of security setup .
If user doesn't have authorise to post in closing period ,then user shouldn't able to post any document in closing period .
May be some issue with user profile .
user who have authorisation to post in closing period can do all posting that affect general ledger .
Can you please test with new user profile and see if that issue persists.bishal
Also mention your SAP version and patch level to check if it is application error .
Thank you

Wrong posting period created and has transactions, how to amend

Hi All,
I have created the posting period in 2005B, forgot to change the Sub-Periods from defaulted Year to Months. So my posting period for 2009 is actually only one period instead of the normal 12 periods in a month.
I have some transactions posted into the period, how can I amend this situation? Hope anyone can assist as soon as possible. Thanks in advance.
Regards,
MH

Hi MH,
I am afraid you cannot do that, because period setting is a very basic setting and the system checks if there are already transactions for that period.
Even if you reverse all transactions the system still considers them as transactions belong to the period.
I suggest that you do it this way:
1. Download the transactions that are already entered
2. Prepare them into templates
3. Go back to the status where database is still empty
4. Correct the period settings
5. Upload back the transactions to the database.

Can SAP run the depreciation for closed Period and posting to diff month?

My client forgot to run the depreciation for Jan 2011, and now the Jan period has been closed and report also done.
My solution was to re-open the Jan and does the depreciation, once completed reclassify Jan depreciation posting to Feb 2011 manually.
I am just wandering whether SAP can handle this different way.
Can SAP performs Jan (Closed Period) depreciation and post to Feb period automatically or any other suggestions?
Cheers

Hi
Yes, you can do that
Follow this thread... Unable to post depreciation- Error AA730
Using ABF1, you can do it

Changes in stock value of the material even after closing period

The client closes the accounts every month end. Say they close the books of accounts for the month of Jan07 on 31st Jan 2007. After closing the account they are running MC.9 to know the stock value of different plants for the previous month. i.e. for the month of Jan07. But every day when the client runs the MC.9 they found some differences in the stock price & quantity.
For better understanding, consider they close the period on 31st Jan. When they run the MC.9 on 2nd Feb it shows the value say 100$ and qty of 100. When we run the same report on 4th Feb the value got changed to say 98$ and qty remain same. Again when we run on 6th Feb the value is changed again to say 102$ and stock is 100.
We checked the MB51 with posting date & entered date. We could not find any back posting.
What could be the reason for the variation in the stock price & qty ? Any pointers will be highly appricated.

Hi Venkat,
Your previous posting talked about variation in stock value and now you are saying that there are changes in stock qty also. So the better option would be to check those material which has variation and compare them with other standard reports to get a solution. Export the list of material to an excel sheet and compare them with that of the other reports. This would help you to find the materials which has changes and you can narrow down to the root cause. Once you get the material then u can go by posting date and find the movements.
Hope this helps. Reward if u find it useful.

Open and Closed periods

Dear FI experts,
For FISL, can I say that a closed period can be modified and closed again?
For example, periods 1-6 have been closed.
Correction or adjustment need to be done in period 2. Period 3-6 balances are affected. So, how is the adjustment applied to the 6 periods? In this case, a closed period becomes opened again? Is such a scenario possible?
Thanks
Adette

It is within the table I believe (I'm not a DBA or a developer) since I created a BLOB column and then used the file browse feature to allow users to attach a resume to the table in order to be able to perform a search of the attached documents.
I'm just having a hard time pointing the link in the search results report to the document in the blob column.
The information on that page is great if you're trying to create a link to the document on the initial report.
But I created a query using Oracle Text to run a report that does a boolean search of the attached word documents in the table.
When it displays the search results, it doesn't create a link to the document and I can't figure out how to do it.
Here's a link the the instructions I used to create the initial search report with Oracle Text, mind you I only created the index and query, I didn't add in all the link data since they're using documents on websites and I'm using documents in a table.
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/pdf/apex_text_application_v1.6.pdf
If you can help me with this I'd really appreciate it.
Thanks again.

Control the opening and closing period

Control the opening and closing period
How I can control open and close peroid at the level of (ledger or legal entity or operating unit)
thanks

can you clarify it, what does it mean 'control' the opening period

Opening and closing periods in FI

Dear FICO experts,
Just a quick question regarding OB52.
We have only 1 company code, can we use the same posting period variant in mulitple line items for the combination ALL account types and a range of periods that are open?
Posting period variant:0000
Account Type: +
Period from: 1
Year:2001
Period to: 12
Year: 2011
Posting period variant:0001 (continue making new posting period variants for all account types as needed)
Account Type: +
Period from: 1
Year:2012
Period to: 12
Year: 2012
OR
Do we just adjust the one line item: example below
Posting period variant:0000
Account Type: +
Period from: 1
Year:2001
Period to: 12
Year: 2011 (keep ajdusting this one line item whenever we need to open new periods for all account types)
Thanks, Deb
Moderator: Company code is assigned to one variant; so the question is irrelevant

Hi,
The Posting Period Variant is just defined once and is not year dependent.
The second option that you maintained is the way how the Posting Periods are maintained.
Against the Same Posting period variant, you can have your open and closed periods and years maintained year after year.
Generally, you keep only 1 period in a year open, the current period, and at the most 2-3 periods in some cases, and that you can easily maintain in Range.
Hope this clarifies..

Access Custom Attributes in JavaScript and in Transactions

Hello,
I try to work with custom attributes. I've problems accessing the values in JavaScript and in transactions, but it works fine within .irpt pages.
What's the trick?
For a custom attribute called PLANT, can I write something like this in JavaScript?
var p = ;
Is there a way to access custom attributes in the Link Editor of an Action Block?
Kind Regards,
Matthias

Hi Matthias,
it is not possible to integrate that kind of MII variables in JavaScript like you discribed before.
You are right that this kind of expression is possible in the .irpt file. The reason why it is working in the .irpt
but not in the .js is, that the MII script parser is only replacing in HTML content. Everywhere you have
scripting the parser will not replace the {...} markings (since the curly brackets also show start/end of functions aso.).
Variables to JavaScript
The easiest Way to get those variables is to create hidden fields in the .irpt file that you can access via JavaScript.
For example:
<input type="hidden" id="hidden_plant" value="{PLANT}" />
This will be parsed to (e.g.)
<input type="hidden" id="hidden_plant" value="Karlsruhe/DE" />
Now you can access this value in JavaScript via:
document.getElementById( "hidden_plant" ).value;
Variables to Transactions
To parse custom variables to a transaction you first have to specify corresponding transaction variables in the
transaction itself. After saving the transaction you can map those variables to Parameters in the Xacute-Query-Editor.
Including this transaction to your webpage you can simply assign the required value to the corresponding parameter.
For example if you mapped the Plant variable of the transaction to Param.1 you can specify the information in the .irpt
like:
<applet id="trx_test" ....>
<... />
<param name="Param.1" value="{PLANT}" />
</applet>
Another possibility is to set the value dynamically via JavaScript if you use:
document.getElementById( "trx_test" ).getQueryObject().setParam( 1, "Karlsruhe/DE" );
Native access to user variables via the BLE is not possible (as far as I know).
I hope this is what you wanted to hear?
Best Regards
Sebastian

OKP1 What is differrence between locking period and locking Transaction

Hello Gurus,
In Transaction code OKP1, which is use to lock controlling periods for controlling. There are two options One is locking the periods and the other is locking the transactions. Any body knows what is the differrence.
Thanks

Hi Rickyy,
The two buttons act as 'Select All' function. Select a period (place cursor on any period) and click on button 'Lock Period' to lock all transactions in a period (vertical). Similarly, select a transaction (row) and click on button 'Lock transaction' which will lock all the periods for that transaction (horizontal). In the same way, you have unlock buttons.
Hope this helps.

Custom Report for the Stock and Stock value for a specific date

Hi SAP Gurus,
Is there any SAP standard t-code or any logic to get the transcations (additions (for example: Purchases) and subtractions (Sales) to the inventory) for a particular materials in a plant and with Total Stock and also Total Stock value when that particular transaction happened?
Our system is R/3 4.7
I looked at the MB5B, MBCE, MBCA, MC44, MB51 and some other standard T-codes but could not find the total stock value at the time of Transaction happened.
The history tables MBEWH and MARDH are updated after the month end closing procedures, right, which means I will have the inventory value changing every month if material has Price "S".
Thank you,
-Harter

Hi Harter,
Unfortunately, you cannot see in a single tcode the value of stock and stock quantity on a specific date. As you yourself have pointed out, we only have to make use of the history table MBEWH, MARDH for the month wise stock quantity and value. Along with that you should also make use of the table MBEW to take teh stock quantity and value. So the total value of stock on a particular date will be
Stock qnty = MBEWH value until the previous month (for teh specific valuation class, period etc) + MBEW value for the present date.
But this will nto work out if you want to find out teh stock quantity and stock value on a past date basis. For past data, only m onthwise data is available. For this anyway you can refer to MC.1 and so on reports.
