GR Conversion - Posting Periods

Hi All,
During GR conversion, i am getting the following error
Parameters for plant P000 not maintained in Inventory Management. Posting only possible in periods 2008/06 and 2008/05 in company code A001
What might be the possible solution?

Sravan,
I would suggest you to post the error message number (eg. ME 207 etc) that you get along with the description so it will be easier for people to help.
How did you create your plant? Manually? Copied?
It appears the some of the inventory management settings required for the plant have not been made. This usually happens if the plant has been created manually instead of being copied from a suitable reference object.
Inventory Management Plant parameters are maintained in config under menu Materials Management->Inventory Management and Physical Inventory->Plant Parameters. You probably need an entry for your plant here.
Hope this helps.

I am creating a report based on FIAA .
Query selection screen will contain COMPANY CODE , and the POSTING PERIOD
suppose we enter company code as 2100 and posting period from 001.2007 to 012.2007.
I need to translate all the balance sheet items are translate with the closing rate (M) for the current period , i.e. the "to period in the report " here 012.2007.
The To period is dynamic and i need to select the currency conversion rate dynamically based on the To period entered in the selection screen of query.so, Can any one give the clues to achieve this. Your help is appriciated.
Thanks & Regards
Syam.

Use RSCUR transaction to create currency translation type.
Here under "Time Ref" tab use "Variable Time Ref" and special infoobject.
You should be able to choose Posting period or posting date here.
Now in query designer maintain the currency conversion based on this currency translation type.
Hope this helps.

However, the assignment of planning objects to seasonality groups generate an error when using period indicator P. It was successful with period indicator M. Here is a sample message from the short dump generated.

Problem in entering stock as well as closing posting period for MMRs

Dear All,
Whenever I do goods receipt (tcode: MB1C, movement type: 561) and enter, it gives the error "Posting only possible in 2007/05 and 2007/04 in CoCd XXXX. I know I need to close posting periods for MMRs. But the while doing that using MMPV for 2007/06 and CoCd XXXX, it comes to a screen stating following:
<b>Client YYY
Period entered (month/year) :06 2007
Incorrect period in control rec of CoCd XXXX; no conversion The current period of record (month/year) is 05 2007</b>
Alternatively, I try to close period thru OMSY and change period on "Pe" column, a window pops up saying "The CoCd XXXX no longer be initialised"
Can anyone help on this? I'm stuck and can't go further. Reward points assured.

Hi
It is very clear from the meassage that the current period is 05/2007.
You have to close this.In the screen you have to enter 05 2007.Then it will close 5 th period and opens 6th period.then close 6th period so that it open the current period 7 (If the fisical year variant is calander year).

Currency Translation Type - Problem with Posting Period (0FISCPER3)

Hi Gurus,
We are currently working on an Implementation project in Integrated Planning (BI 7.0) and are having issues with Currency Conversion for each Month. The requirement is that Client will maintain Currency Exchange rates on a month on month basis for Exchange rate type P.
In all the Info providers we have used Posting Period 0FISCPER3 as a Time characteristic and NOT 0FISCPER ( Fiscal Year / Period ). Eventhough 0FISCPER appears as a Standard time characteristic in all Info providers , we have not even considered the same in all the Aggregation levels.
When we are now defining a Currency Translation Type thru RSCUR transaction , we select Variable Time Reference as "Beginning of Period" and the ONLY Standard Info Object available there is 0FISCPER and not the Posting Period 0FISCPER3.
Is there anyway that we can include 0FISCPER3 also as a Standard Info Object !!!!! If not , is there any way out ..... Do we have to include 0FISCPER necessarily as a characteristic in the Aggregation Level ? Please advise.
Regards,
Venkat.

Hi,
In the IP modeler you can also use the FOX formula for conversion.
CURC(<amount>, <d>, <exchange rate type>, <curr_from>, <curr_to>)
This reads the RSCUR table, and you can write your own date from fiscal or calander. So it is most flexibel.
Maybe this helps.

Juriaan

Cutover - Posting Period

2007B
Need to upload open AR/AP Invoices( Service type) to post BP opening balances.
There are open invoices from the year- 2003, 2005 , etc. This is considered as the posting date as the exchange rate conversions need to be of that date (exchange rate convrsions are based on posting rate)
Should we create posting periods for those years to upload the open invoices of those date ranges?
Is that recommended? if not what should be done?

Hi Kerstin,
Thanks for the clarity.
In India, the financial year starts from APR 01 and ends MAR 31 ( current Financial year 01-APR- 08 to 31- MAR- 09)
We here have posting periods for every month (total of 12 posting periods)
I can bring the closing balances of 31-MAR-08 (last financial year closing date) as the opening balance for the current financial year APR 01.
Upload all the current financial year AR/AP invoices from APR 01 (will keep all the previous month posting period open and upload all the open documents)
My current Posting period is of NOV month.
My questions:
In this case, If I close the posting period from APR to OCT one by one( 7 posting periods ) after uploading the open documents, the period closing journal entries will be created. Will this have any issues? Is there any better way to do it?
whats are the implications of closing a posting period ?

Error while running a query-Input for variable 'Posting Period is invalid

Hi All,
NOTE: This error is only cropping up when I input 12 in the posting period variable selection. If I put in any other value from 1-11 I am not getting any errors. Any ideas why this might be happening?
I am getting the following error when I try and run a query - "Input for variable 'Posting Period (Single entry, mandatory)' is invalid" - On further clicking on this error the message displayed is as follows -
Diagnosis
Variable Posting Period (Single Value Entry, Mandatory) is used as a lower limit (X) and an upper limit () in an interval selection. This limit has the value #.
System Response
Procedure
Enter a different value for variable Posting Period (Single Value Entry, Mandatory). If the value of the other limit is determined by another variable, you can change its value also.
Procedure for System Administration

OK.
Well, if the variable is not used in any interval selection, then I would say "something happened to it".
I would make a copy of the query and run it to check if I get the same problem with period 12.
   -> If not, something is wrong in the original query (you can proceed as below, if changes to original are permitted).
If so, then try removing the variable completely from the query and hardcode restriction to 12.
   -> If problem still persists, I would have to do some thinking.
If problem is gone, then add the variable again. Check.
   -> If problem is back, then the variable "is sick". Only quick thing to do, is to build an identical variable and use that one.
If problem also happens with the new variable, then it's time to share this experience with someone else and consider raising an OSS.
Good luck!

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

How to Open and Close Posting Periods in MM

Hi,
I have opened posting periods for 10/2008 first and by mistake even 11/2008 and 12/2008 using MMPV.
Now when I am trying to do PGI from VL02N, the system says postings are only possible for 11/2008 and 12/2008.
How to close these two periods and default to 10/2008.
Please kindly help me to solve this issue.
Regards,
Gopi Krishna
SAP QA Lead

It is possible to re-open a previously closed period. However, it is NOT advisable to do so because the valuation data of the previous period could be affected.
In general, it is only safe to reopen a previously closed period when no material postings have been done after the period shifting to the new period.
If there has already been postings after the period shifting to the new period, reverting the period back will cause database inconsistencies in the history tables.
If you decide to proceed with this process, you can use the program RMMMINIT, but, please review the documentation of this program first!! and the check the SAP notes 487381 (for the error message that you are receiving) and the 369637 (for an explanation about the inconsistencies that will be generated.
Steps are as below;
Go to Transaction Code SE38
Enter program name RMMMINIT
Execute or press F8 function button
Enter your company code (From and To)
Enter relevant date: Say 01/03/2008 for Mar. 2008 month to be opened as of now
That means, user can post for the month of Feb 2008 as well as Mar. 2008
Refer SAP Note No. 487381 for more details.
As per SAP Notes 487381 ( If the periods are opened in advance in mmpv to again change it to current period the following process should be follow ), Go to Tcode MMPI, then go to menu bar and select system -> user profile->owndata.In that screen , under the parameters tab enter MMPI_READ_NOTE in Parameter ID field and enter, then under short description you will get Initialise period. Next Save.
Again go to MMPI enter company code, period and year and execute.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Other way of doing it is follow these steps( But try this method in Sand box Only):
1. Go to OX18, and delete the plants assigned to your CO.Cd and save.
2. Go to OMSY and change the posting period to the one u want and save.
3.Go to OX18 and assign the plants you have deleted in step 1.and save.

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 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.
Financial Accounting (New) -> Financial Accounting Global Settings (New) -> Ledgers -> Ledger -> Define and Activate Non-Leading Ledgers

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
I hope it will help.
If helpful, please assign points.
