  • Authorization for opening & Closing posting periods - OB52

    Hi,
    Is there any way to set authorization for opening & closing of posting periods in OB52?
    My scenario:
    I have 2 company codes - A & B assigned to 2 different posting period variant - say PPA & PPB.
    The user belonging to CoCd A should not be able to open/close posting period of CoCd B and vice versa.
    Is this possible through any authorization settings?
    Request your help on this.
    Regards,
    Sridevi

    Hi Sridevi
    Please go through the following:
    You can assign authorization groups for permitted posting periods. This means that, for example, some posting periods can only be opened for particular users within monthly or annual closing. You can only assign the authorization group at document header level and it only affects period 1. The authorization object is called F_BKPF_BUP (Accounting document: Authorizations for posting periods). Read the corresponding chapter on "User maintenance" in the "Assigning authorizations" topic.
    "User maintenance"
    Due to the modular authorization concept of the system, you can define authorization profiles which are tailored to the workplace of your employees. You can, for example, assign authorization to a workplace in the Accounts Receivable, Accounts Payable or General Ledger Accounting areas.
    By assigning authorizations you define which business-related objects your employees are allowed to process and which editing functions are allowed.
    In the following activities for authorization management, you must carry out the following for employees who are to work with the system:
    Assign authorizations
    The authorizations are assigned by specifying permitted values for the pre-defined objects.
    Define profiles
    In the SAP system, authorizations are grouped together in workplace profiles. Therefore one or more profiles must be allocated to the individual employee in the master record.
    I hope this helps.

  • Re open the closed Posting Periods - Very Urgent

    Dear Experts,
    We have an urgent problem to solve.The company code currently we are configuring uses fiscal year (oct - Sept) and the other company codes in our client site uses (jan -Dec). So by mistake we closed posting periods using MMPV upto 2007 03 but it should be 2006 06(correct me if i am wrong).
    As we are still in baseline configuration we don't have any material document in the current company code. From this forum I got some solution to intialize the posting period using MMPI(which directed me to use SAP Note 487381).
    Now if I do MMPI with the directions mentioned in SAP Note 487381, will i face any problem now & in future.
    Please suggest me and help me as has become hurdle for the test process.
    Thanks in Advance...
    Nagesh Aswartha

    Hi Aswartha
    As you do not have any material documents , pl go ahead and initialize the periods. Should not be a problem.
    I normally do this to avoid errors:
    In MMPV, never give a period. Enter the current date(or first date of the month) in the date field and execute closing program.
    Best regards

  • Clarify these words:posting period varients & open & close posting period

    Hi Sap Gurus,
    Someone kindly make me clarify following words.Thank you.
    1.Posting period varient.
    2.Open & close posting periods
    3.Assign posting period varients to company code-What does it do after assignment?
    Best Regards,
    priya desai
    Financial Analysist

    Hi,
    It is very easy and understandble.
    1.Posting period varient.
    If you want to post any documents you need to enter some date right? That date would belongs to some posting period right?.
    for Example your Fin.period is JAN to DEC. Means 01 is for Jan, 12 is for DEC, 05 for May.
    So according to your requirement you have to create the variant and define what do you want.
    2.Open & close posting periods
    When you in operation and if you are posting a document in the month of Feb. the period Jan has been closed it will avoid the mistakes while posting to the different periods.
    3.Assign posting period varients to company code-What does it do after assignment?
    Once you have created your company code and your posting variant. You are assign to make the link to both the level.

  • Track changes in opening / closing FI period

    Does SAP have a standard report to track the changes made by opening / closing FI periods in a given date range for a particular company code using T Code OB52 and also track who has made the changes.
    If there is no standard report what is the solution to get this

    I would like to know steps or T-CODE for end year closing.
    1) With TC: F.16 we can carry forward the balance to next year.
    2) With TC: OBH2 copy the number ranges to next year
    3) Open next year periods by selecting the Posting Period Variant.
    4) Then test by posting the transaction in F-02
    How about TC : OB52, when we can't run that steps?
    Check List:
    In order to arrive at correct profit or loss for the month following checklist can be followed:
    Month end closing Activities
    1) All the expenses including amortization, prepaid expenses, Preliminary expenses and accruals have been booked.
    2) Complete Bank Reconciliation
    3) Make sure that Sum of Inter company balances is Zero
    4) Suspense Accounts should be cleared regularly.
    5) Ensure that all documents related to MM & SD have been entered in system.
    6) Ensure that all billing documents are released to accounting.
    7) Calculate Overheads on all process Orders (CO43)
    8) Technically complete all process orders which are fully processed (CORM).
    9) Calculate Variance (KKS1)à (Relevant only if Standard cost is calculated).
    10) Settle all process orders which are technically complete (CO88).
    11) Close All settled Process Orders
    12) Close MM period (Transaction Code: MMPV).
    13) Carry out GR/IR clearing (F.13) transaction
    14) Depreciation Run (AFAB) has been carried out for the month
    15) Close FI Posting period after the month end closing activity is over.
    Year end closing Activities
    1) Calculate production work in progress on process orders which are not technically complete.
    2) Carry out Assessment cycle for Cost Centers.
    3) All month end closing Activities should be carried out.
    4) Carry Forward Balances to next year
    (With TC: F.16 we can carry forward the balance to next year.
    With TC: OBH2 copy the number ranges to next year
    Open next year periods by selecting the Posting Period Variant.
    then test by posting the transaction in F-02)
    We donu2019t use TC:OB52 for end year closing?
    I have replied partly to your query. sorry for that. I have sent you the opening new year reords.
    The closing procedure is as follows: -
    1. Carry forward Vendor & Customer Balances: TC: F.07
    2. Assets:
    i) TC: OB 52 - for assets 2 years can be openned at a time.
    ii) check which year is closed: TC: OAAQ
    iii) Close the year 2004: TC: AJAB
    Note: Unless depreciation for all the months is posted for all the assets you cannot close the year.
    iv) Open year 2005: TC: AJRW
    Hope the above clears your doubt.

  • Block cancellation/creation of billing document on CLOSED posting period

    Hi Experts,
    Currently, user is allowed to cancel/create backdated billing document where period already closed, but it does not release to accounting automatically, due to the period has been closed.
    When account user found out that the accounting document is missing for the billing document, they have to re-open the period and manual release it to accounting, in order to generate the accounting document.
    Therefore, we need the billing document to be blocked for cancellation/creation on CLOSED posting period.
      Is there any settings in stardard SAP to block cancellation/creation of billing document on CLOSED posting period?
    would appreciate your inputs.
    Thanks and Regards,

  • OPEN\CLOSE POSTING PERIOD

    Hi everyone,
    I'm working on a system with different company code, each company code has a posting period variant.
    My question is:
    Is there the possibility (by tcode 'OB52') that more users can, at the same time, open\close posting periods related to them posting period variant?
    In practice, my customer asks me:
    AT THE SAME TIME: - user x (company X) modifies posting periods of PPV '001' and user y (company Y) modifies posting periods of PPV '002'...
    Is it possible???
    thank you in advance..

    Hi Jason,
    Probably I may not recommend this. These are most critical activities. We do not the dependency of the tables. Meaning that the table could be linked to many other tables and fields in database. This may end up in data integrity issues.
    These are not the activities that we should do on a daily basis. Normally we open and close the period on a monthly basis and open this screen for few minutes or so. I would suggest first user can go and change and then he come back and the second person may change.
    Since this a very critical activity, anything wrong would impact all other modules, as the data is moving from all other modules to FI.
    Therefore, I would only recommend one by one to change OB52 OR give the authority to a centralized person in order to open and close the periods.
    Regards,
    Ravi

  • Is there a way we can open/close posting periods on a "per day" basis?

    Hi SAP gurus,
    Is there a way we can open/close posting periods on a per day basis?
    It is not possible in OB52 since it only has control per period and not per day.
    Will assign points for suggestions. =) Thanks!

    Hii
    In standard SAP there is not such functionality where u can do these kind of configuration...it is at least for a month that is through OB52.
    If u still wants this functionality it is through the validation.
    u need to create the validation for that company code and thn u can use this functionality....

  • Error in Opening the Posting Period.

    Hi All,
    The Current period in the system is 10 2009.
    The Previous period in the system is 09 2009.
    When trying to open the posting period 11 2009 ( through MMPV ), system throws an error saying "The specified year 2009 is not the current calendar year" and then a log is issued.
    Can anybody help me in this. Please...
    Any help is appreciated.
    Edited by: Himanshu Bhusan Sahoo on Apr 12, 2010 11:45 AM

    Thanks Everybody for your help. It was resolved.
    The Periods in the Fiscal Year Variant (Z1 is my case) were not maintained for the Calendar Year 2009.
    Maintenance was done in SPRO in the following path ( Financial Accounting/ Financial Accounting Global Settings/Fiscal Year/ Maintain Fiscal Year Variant (Maintain Shortened Fisc. Year) ).
    And after this I could close and open the periods in the system.
    Thank you all for the help.

  • After implementing EHP3, is it possible to close/open MM posting period at

    Hi,
    After implementing EHP3, is it possible to close/open MM posting period at segment level ? Do you people have any idea?
    Is there any way to close/open MM posting period at a level lower than company code?

    No, the period is at company code level. This is same as FI.

    Hello
    Open and close periods is specific to A+ / Asset / Customers / Vendors / Material / General ledger accounts only.

  • Query regarding Opened/Closed GL periods

    Hello Gurus,
    ive got an issue, when using 0FIGL_C01 Cube.
    The query ive created balances on cumulative balance (as key figure) and GL account names (as hierarchy).
    Now i want to show the data of cumulative balance regarding closed periods.
    I.e. if we have current April month the balance should be 0, but all other in the past January, February, March should be displayed.
    How it is possible to do this?
    Ive tryed to create a calculated key figure, whith code something like:
    IF debit and credit == 0 then Cummulative balance=0 else Cumulative balance.
    It works fine but it shows also the postings of current period, which isnt realy closed.
    Tried to search the indicators of FI open/closed periods, but the only thing i found is S_ALR_87003642 - Open and Close Posting Periods transaction showing Company code, GL account ranges and from to period data.
    What could be the sollution for this? Should i create new DS for the mensioned TC and then to create a multicube or perhaps is a better and faster way in doing it?
    Thanks a lot in advice

    I'm not sure what you mean here: "let the database contorl the iteration of this huge dataset - with cursors".
    Generally speaking you have 2 options when it comes to parallel processing:
    Parallelize processes in the ABAP stack. These processes access different, non-overlaping, parts of your restult set
    in parallel. Using the BELNR could be an approach to build different, non-overlapping paackages.
    Database side parallelization. This is possible for every action that uses multiblock I/O (full table scans and index fast full scans) and for partitioned segments. For non-partitioned segments and single block I/O database side parallelization is not possible.
    So, generally speaking, you have 3 options:
    1.) parallelize in ABAP and build idependent packages
    2.) force the DB to do multiblock I/O (full table scan, index fast full scan) in parallel
    3.) partition your table and indexes.
    I think (it's just my opinion) for an ERP (not BW / BI) system
    - option 3 is not a good option for OLTP systems (several reasons). I see it very, very, very rarely or close to never in OLTP systems
    - option 2 may read (much) more data then you would need to read, although a very efficient I/O method would be used (multibock I/O)
    - option 1 requires programming in ABAP but will read exactly the data you need to read and can be controlled very well in the ABAP stack (parallel single block I/O will be used)
    In alamost all cases (that are similar to your case) i have see option 1 was used.
    Kind regards,
    Hermann
