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.

  • 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.

    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.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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 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.
