Open period

Hi Gurus,
As of now there is a person who is authorised to open a period which has been closed to pass any entries.
But what is happening is when he opens other people are also able to pass the entries.
Now client wants to do settings so that whoever has opened a period only should pass any entries. It has to restrict other users to pass entries at that time.
As a FI person what is that i should do.
Useful answer is appreciated.
Regards
NNS

Hi,
When you need to permit a select group of users to post to a previous period, you can use authorization groups to automate access. This prevents unauthorized users from posting to the previous period without requiring you to adjust the posting settings manually after a period closes.
Authorization fields store permissions for system access. The system checks these values before granting users access to protected areas. Authorization objects enable you to permit select users access to restricted transactions by grouping up to 10 authorization fields together. The authorization object F_BKPF_BUP consists of just one field, authorization group. This works similarly to the authorization object for K_CCA, which is used to determine which cost elements and cost centers a user can access. It also determines which activities users can perform such as create, change, or display.

Balance for open periods in a time series enabled cube

Hi,
We have a request to calculate balance for open periods in a time series enabled cube, I don’t there is any inbuilt function for this.
Any ideas on how to calculate this without adding new members/formulae in the time dimension. Currently we compute this in the report
EX:
BOY(May) = Jun+Jul + … + Dec
Thanks,

You will have to add a member somewhere. Suppose you add it in scenario, then you could use sumrange for the current member range offsetting the current monthe by 1 and use null for the end month wich gives you the last month in the time dim.

FI - Restrict Open periods

I am implementing FICO and we already have deployed FIGL in our company. I need to restrict open periods from displaying. I am not sure whether I should restrict at the extraction or bring in the open periods and restrict based on T001B table in ECC which stores the open and closed periods at a given point. looking for the best solution if someone has implemented this.

Hi,
BI system is a common system used for reporting the R3 system data. Hence it is always advisable to pull all the data to BI and at report level you can filter on those data.
In the Reporting cube level add a field called ZPeriod apart from 0FISCPER you have , Add an attribute Validity to this Zperiod infoobject maintain them with status fields like O for Open Periods C for Closed Periods.
In the report restrict the Validity field with C for getting only closed periods data.
ZPERIOD infobject has to updated with status daily from T001b from ECC system so that attribute will always have correct periods and their validity status. This is a good and dyanmic method of solution which can be used at report level.
All these loads automate thro process chain so that no manual activity will be available.
Dont go for filtering of data and if some other users need FIGL data as of today for validating or tallying it becomes difficult.
Hope this helps for you.
Thanks,
Arun

Hi Dirk,
Opening period is normaly used for carry forward rules, but you get this warning in currency conversion also.
You can set the parameters for Opening Period in the CATEGORY Dimension.
First Parameter is OPENING_PERIOD : if its blank it uses the last month of a year (=> DEC if you use calendar year)
Second Parameter is OPENING_YEAR: blank means previous year (same as inserting -1)
This means, if you calculate budget for the whole year or a month in 2009, Opening Period is 2008.DEC.
If you dont have any rates in Time = 2008.DEC;Category=Budget (for each of your specific rates) you will get this warning.

Can't open period-GLOOAP try to create ccid with Seg1 invalid by Sec Rules

Hi,
12 months ago, we done a accounting recoding (by legal changes) in two portuguese company which belong our business group. We only change segment1 (17 value by 10... value 10 was desactived by security rules) and we create new ccid's by changing of accounts (for example,.. 10.590000.000.00.000.00000 changed to 17.561000.000.00.000.00000)... Also, we change all accounting configuration in all modules (PO, GL, AP, AR,..) for adapting to new needs.
It hasn't had any incident about this change.
However, now, when we try to open a new period (00-11), process for opening period fail... It only occur in one company which we did this change (in other portuguese company, it wrok fine).
the log of process indicates that process cann't create a ccid (i think it is trying to create it dinamically) but the question is that segment1 (10) is desactived by security rules (new ccids should be created with segment1 ='17').
My question is: Where is process extract segment1 for trying to create this new ccid? this process is Spawned and I cann't opened it.
This problem has only occured when we try to open 00-11 period... in before periods it opened fine.
Best Regards,
Ricardo

Can we Open Period at one time for all entity

Hi
Environment: 11.5.10
Is it possible to open period for all the legal entities at single click like R12.
Any alternative?

Quick way: Press Ctrl+N (Cmd-N mac) to open a new Bridge window. Open the second folder there.
Not so quick way: Select menu File => New Window. Open the second folder there.
If you MUST view all of the files in one window, all of your files MUST be in folders nested within the same parent folder. In that case:
1) View the parent folder in bridge.
2) Open the Filter palette.
3) Click the microscopic button in the top left corner of the Filter palette, which looks like a folder with a "No" symbol on it. The tooltip label for that button is, "Click to view all items...".

Open period
