MIRO - Posting to special periods
Hi all,
Is it possible to post MIRO documents in special periods.I am not finding Period field in MIRO screen. in FI transactions it is there.
please help
sunoj
Hi,
Special Periods can be used only in FI module. We can not use Special Periods in MM module.
One more thing, once a period is closed in MM module, we can neither reopen the closed period nor post any transactions in that period.

Can posting with Special Periods possible 4 other than Last posting period?
Hi Gurus,
My client is following a calendar year specific fiscal year (JAN TO DEC). Now, is it possible to post accounting documents or any documents giving any of the 4 special periods and with posting date as that of March? This is for income tax purpose...
Fiscal Year Variant USED is K4.
Regards
DeepakHi,
This is not possible, as the period has a conversion attached to it internally, i.e., the period is derived from the posting date, as such the special periods (13-16) will only remain in the period field of the document when the posting date is in December. Else it will be overwritten by the posting date period.
If you are in a non-ECC system, you may look at building an April to March ledger in Special purpose ledger, which will have its own balance carry forward and adjustment postings for the tax year. The SL uses the same postings from the FI ledger, however you can set a different fiscal year variant for the special ledger, so April will become period 1 in SL, while remaining 4 in FI.
Cheers

MIRO Posting in a period not yet open
Hi Friends,
We experienced an unusual behavior of the system when posting MIRO. Now we have not opened the current period in MM to facilitate pending transactions of previous fiscal year . Hence the period 12/2009 & 11/2009 (ie February & March 2010) is open . But it is seen that one MIRO against a PO could be posted giving posting date as 7.4.2010 & Document date as 31.3.2010.How it is possible when no other MM transactions are not allowed . Even we tried to do MIRO for another PO but it is not allowing .How it allowed to post the invoice in a posting date which is not yet open .This is to indicate here that our FI period of the current month is open .
Please give your views on this .
DhrubaIn OMSY the entry 2009 period 12 has not changed as we have not opened the new period of 2010.
Is there any conclusions on it or do any one guess what is the reason for such behaviour.

Dear guruz,
Please help to get more information about posting in special periods (13-16) in SAP.
We have following situation:
After year end closing we need to audit our financial statements for external use (IFRS). As audit lasts several months I cannot afford to leave the balances of new year unuploaded. So I perform the balance carry forward procedure before the audit starts.
Now I'd like to add some corrections in audited reporting by use of special posting periods.
My questions are:
-does these postings, performed after balance carry forward procedure affect on accounts in future (is this possible to face with problems in the future); Do I have to repeat the balance carry forward procedure?
-is this possible to divide all the postings (for internal reporting and for audited reporting) to be able to see these balances in standard SAP reports (such as S_ALR_87012300 "GL account balances" and so on) with and without postings made by use of special periods in previous years.
respect,
Oleg.1. I don't think that assumption is correct. Bal. c/f program can be run multiple times. Also, once bal. c/f program is run, if you make any postings in the previous year they are automatically carried forward to the current fiscal year. Here is the bal. c/f program documentaton.
This program is used to carry forward the balances of the general ledger or another ledger to the new fiscal year.
The program can be run multiple times.
Normally, the program does not need to be run more than once, since postings to the previous fiscal year are automatically carried forward to the current fiscal year, if the balance carry forward program has already been run.
Generally, the balance is carried forward as follows:
Balance sheet accounts are transferred with all additional account assignments.
P&L accounts are carried forward to the retained earnings account. Additional account assignments are not transferred. The transaction currencies are not transferred and are totaled in the local currency.
2. In your case, if you are using new GL, you can create a non-leading ledger and post audit adjustments only to the non-leading ledger. You regular postings for the year hit both the leading (0L) and non-leading ledgers.
3. I am not good at asset accounting - so I can't answer your question on depreciation for audit adjustment postings. -
HI
What are the Special periods, kindly suggest me how can I post the Special period
posting,
with regards
Arun KumarDear Arun,
Financial year(for ex. 2008-09) is closure means all your accounting treatment for that year have been done and system will not allow you to post any accounting transaction in that year. Now your books of accounts are required to be audited, if any adjustment for any expenses or other is required to be made? then what will you do because fiscal year(for eg. 2008-09) is closed? Here you will use special period.
If you want to use special period the put any date of the 12th period in posting period. For eg. in India last fiscal period in March.
So,for eg. put 31.03.2009 in posting period. and manually insert 13 in the period (you can use any period like 13,14,15,16) and carry on your transaction you posting will be updated in special period.

Dear all,
Can you tell me what is the purpose of special posting periods in FI. I use variant K4 with 12 normal periods & 4 special periods. What is the avantages of using one special period & using whole 4 periods ?
Thank you,
Best regards,
Tweety.Hi Tweety,
Special posting periods in FI are used for posting all kinds of adjustment entries like audit or tax adjustments to a closed fiscal year. Only specific users as identified by the business must be given authorization to post in special periods. Normally you can use 4 special periods but the requirement again is business-based.
Hope this clarifies.

Hi Guys
I have a doubt on special period available in SAP. We have special period 13 to 16 - i really have a doubt what is the purpose of this.
1] For eg - i am opening the special period in OB52.
Can i pass a entry for that period - When i passed an entry - the date i can give is only from jan to dec, otherwise the system will give an error as invalid date.
Now iam giving a date as lost date of my fiscal year and changing the period as 13, the period is automatically changed to the posting date period.
2] I have opened only one period in OB52 i.e the period 13. Now can i pass entry in any period i.e. from period 1 to 13
The live issue is i have some audit entries which are to be passed on 31st March, by using period 13. When we try this the above doubts came into picture
Thanks in advance
Warm Regards
BalaDear Bala,
We use special posting period to post make adjustment entries. This is how to post in "Special Period" in system :
1. Go to F-02
2. Enter desired dates in date field.
3. In period field enter " Special Period Number e.g 13"
4. And proceed with normal postings and save the document.
For posting in special period you have to enter special period explicitly, and your Posting Date should fall in Last Actual Period say March or December. In below example date is in March 2014.
Please find below screenshot for your help and reference.
FB03 :
FS10N :
I hope this will help you to understand functionality, and solve your issue as well. Just try F-02 in your system and see what happens - see results in FS10N as well.
Thank you.

Posting depreciation on special period
Hi,
We have this problem. We have 2 evaluation areas: 01 (fiscal area) and 20 (cost accounting area).
For the previous years SAP correctly posted depreciations on period 12 for area 20 and on period 13 for area 01.
For year 2007 we had some problem. All the depreciations have been posted on period 12 (both the areas). We would like to know: why this happen?? We have lounch transaction AFAB for period 12 and the system posted both areas. Why?
Where can I customize the period on which the balance account have to be updated?
And do you have some ideas related to the correction of this problem??
Thanks in advance,

Exchange Rate difference posting during MIRO posting
Hi ,
We are facing an issue for exchange rate difference posting during MIRO.
PO creation , GR posting & IR posting done on same date. Vendor in PO has different currency than company code currency. Exchange rate maintained in OB08 for this period is taken in PO.
PO value & GR value is same. Due to raw material cost there was price difference posted during GR posting.
(i.e. Raw material cost - GR/IR value = Price difference amount)
During posting MIGO, 3 accounts got posted.
Raw material cost account got debited & offset credit to GR/IR account & price difference account (in vendor & company code currency also)
During posting MIRO, 4 accounts got posted.
Vendor account got credited with GR/IR amount & offset to GR/IR account debit.
Exchange rate difference account got credited & offset to price difference account (in company code currency only)
Since PO creation , GR posting & IR posting done on same date, then why system has posted exchange rate difference account in local currency only during MIRO posting ?
Your inputs appreciated.
Thanks & RegardsHi,
there is a setting in configuration of logistics invoice verification where you can control the calculation and posting of exchange rate differences. If you had the setting active that exchange rate differences are calculated against a planned exchange rate, that might lead to the kind of postings you describe. Please check.

VAT should post based on PO date or GR date not based on MIRO posting date
Hi,
Based on posting date in Invoice(MIRO) & condition record validity period, VAT is calculated & posting on invoice posting.

01.01.2011 to 31.01.2011-------> 4%
01.02.2011 to 28.02.2011------->12%
01.03.2011 to 31.03.2011------->14.5%
PO created and GR done on February & invoive done on March and syatem calculated VAT amount perfactly based on validity period maintained in condition recod and invoice posted.
But requirement is system should post invoice VAT amount as mentioned in the PO ( based on PO date) or GR date to post during Invoice posting in MIRO

Depreciation run with special period
We require 2 set of FS reports:-
1.) FS as at 14/12/2007
2.) FS as at 31/12/2007
We have use the following period to derive the the reports
1.) Period 12 (Transactions 1st - 14th Dec 2007)
2.) Period 14 ( Transactions 15th - 31st Dec 2007)
Q1.)Should Dec depreciation run on period 14?
Q2.) If yes, will the depreciation run capture the depreciation from 1st - 31st Dec 2007?
Q3.) We have tried to run Dec depreciation in period 14 but error "According to the posting cycle, you should post period 012 next."
Pls advise
1.) Steps to run Dec 2007 depreciation in order to capture the whole month depreciation.
2.) Which period to open in OB52.
Kindly assist as this is urgent. Points will be rewarded. Thank youDear Hari,
Thank you for the helpful points. Rewarded.
FYI, our cut off date is 14th Dec 2007. Any transactions after this date will go to period 14. In OB52, we set only period 14 open to block user from posting to other periods. Will this affect the depreciation run (given scenario where we run AFAB for period 12)?
When we run AFAB for period 12, this is the error we get:
Period 12 is not allowed
Message no. F5567
Diagnosis
The period entered (12) is different from the period calculated (14) and is also not in the interval for special periods (013 to 016).
System Response
Error.
Procedure
Correct the value entered for the posting period.
What shoud we do? -
Inversion documents when using the special Periods with FYV K4
Hello All,
I have posted some documents in Period 12 and they are not inverting in period1. we are using the FYV as K4 which is 12 periods plus 4 special periods. My business requirement is whatever the documents posted in Period12 to Period 16, they need to be inverted in Period1.
I have tried all different combinations and permitation by changing the consolidation frequency, Document types and tasks. But there is no use and SAP also replied back as per the below. So please help if you have any information regarding this issue.

Dear Jags,
There is no special handling of the 'special' periods regarding invers-
ion.
The period initialization task just considers the closing frequency,
which is assigned to the respective task.
According to this frequency, it inverts the previous closing period.
If you use the closing frequency monthly, which contains
also the special periods 13-16, then the following logic applies:
period of execution / inversion period of original document
01 16
02 01
03 02
04 03
05 04
06 05
07 06
08 07
09 08
10 09
11 10
12 11
13 12
14 13
15 14
16 15
If the closing frequency contains also the special periods, please
execute the period initialization task also in all special periods.
I hope this helps to answer your question. If so, please confirm this
message. For additional questions regarding that topic please turn to
to the information sources listed in note 83020)

Posted one document with 2 lines in Period12.
It is not inverting in period1 part of the period initialization task, but it is inverting period 13.
Issue: I am unable to invert the doc in period1.
Even I tried with 2 different doc types and 2 different Flexible upload methods. But there is no use.
TEST2 task is showing up in period13 only in the cons monitor
Posted one document with 2 lines in Period13.
It is inverting in period1 part of the period initialization task, so here there is no issue from the beginning.

Hello Experts!!
I am having one confusion regarding special period.
Example:
Our fiscal year is from January to December.
Suppose we have carried forward the all balances of GL, Customers and Vendors for the Year 2007.
Now we have posted the entries in the year 2008. At present, settings in OB52 are as follow.
From period (11-2008) To period (12-2008)
and for special period (13-2008 to 16-2008)
Now my question is, according to above settings, still we can make the adjustment postings in the December, 2007. am i right?
if yes then, will they affect the opening and closing balance of 2008?
Now another question, if we carry forward the balance of 2008 and we want to make the adjustment posting for December, 2007 then the system will allow me to do adjustment posting after doing the following settings?
From period (11-2008) to period (12-2008)
Special Periods (13-2009 to 16-2009)
Please clarify this situation.....
Regards,
JimmyYou can forward the closing balances once the fiscal year is closed. And closing of fiscal year means, closing of posting as well as special periods.
You will not be able to pass any adjustment entry after forwarding the balances And it is not advisable to reopen the fiscal year once it is closed after making adjustment entry.
