Period opening & then closing

Dear Friends,
I want to do stock balancing adjustment in pervious financial period of 31.03.2008.
But current period is 09.2008 in SAP Form.(01/04/2008 to 31/03/2009).
How can I do that activity for stock clearing without affecting any other data in production server?
Please reply.
Regards,
Chandra

Hi,
do not even think of doing opening the previous period...
Thats the thing which is not only dangerous but shall not even be tried in dev system .
the results can disturb the whole system....
Please post it in the current period only...

Period Opening and Closing

Hi Gurus,
Please explain for Period Closing and Opening we have to do only MMPV or is there any step by step procedure is there.(incl.for all the Modules)
Tks.

hi
MMPV Close Period for Material Master Records
Once the system is in productive operation, you normally run the period closing program once a month at the beginning of a new period. This program sets the new period, making it possible to perform goods movements with reference to the new period.Once the period has been closed, it is no longer possible to make postings to what was the previous period
MMRV Allow Posting To Previous Period
in this the Allow Posting to Previous Period Indicator that allows posting to the previous period (backposting). In this case, the previous period is the preceding month.
MMPI Initialize Period for Material Master Records
For FI you Can Use OB52
for help of OB52 check following

Period opening and closing with relation to Parked document

We have the process of parking the document and then posting the same through T code: FBV0. Every month we park the document.
Many times it happens that the period is closed without posting the parked documents. Do we have any way where we can check during doing the Transaction code OB52 which will give the message that posting period cannot be changed unless and until the parked document are posted
Prashant P Zinge

Hi,
Your requirment is not available in Standard SAP.
Parked documents can be posted in any month in a FY, some times at the end of FY also.
SAP have a possibility to delete all the parked documents related to previous FY at the begining of new Fiscal Year to start new Parked documents for new FY.
Thanks

Popup windows flash open then closed while watching videos or visitng websites.

It seems to happen more often when I am watching a video on Youtube or Hulu.
The video is playing normally and all of a sudden what looks like a pop up window opens and immediately closes. Sometimes you can see what looks like a person or an ad, but only for a fraction of a second and then it's gone. This will happen over and over again and it's super irritating. The windows seem to be of all sizes, they pop up in different parts of the screen and the frequency changes so that sometimes this happens a lot and other times there are fewer.
I've scanned for viruses with several programs, Avast and Trendmicro HouseCall.
OS is Windows 7
Firefox and Flashplayer are all up to date.
I've also scanned for Malware and Spyware.
I have even turned off Firefox's popup blocker so I might see where these windows are coming from, but no popup ads ever open it just keeps flashing these windows open and immediatly closed.

'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that turns off some settings and disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
''(If you're using an added theme, switch to the Default theme.)''
If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu by clicking on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item: 
[[Image:FirefoxSafeMode|width=520]] 
If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
* On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
* On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' (you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
[[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help others with the same problem.
Please report back soon.

Restrict the posting period opening and closing for some users

Dear SAP gurus,
I want to restrict some users to open the posting period and for some users close posting periods. I knew that these can be done through authorization group. Pls explain how to create authorization groups and how to use those? Anybody can help me out?
Regards,
Venkata Reddy

Dear Venkatareddy,
There are two sets of period in OB52. The first set of "From" and "To" is for the authorised group and second set is for the non authorised group. In the "Authorisation Group" (last column) give some 4 charecters name. Say "FICO".
Now ask the basis to attach the object "FICO" for the users who are authorised say user1, user 2 and user3.
Now in the first set of period you can maintain say 1 2008 to 16 2008 and in the second set 1 2008 to 1 2008.
So except user1,2 and 3, all the others can post only in 1 2008. Whereas users 1,2 and3 can post in all the periods of 2008.
Assign points if useful

I get the sound of a door opening and closing intermittenly.

I get the sound of a door opening then closing at different times. It sounds like it signals when someone is getting online and when they leave. What is this and how do I turn it off or find out who it is?

That sounds like an AOL feature. If you have AOL on line, Shut it off!

Iphone 4 apps keep opening and closing

My Iphone 4 apps that other people have gotten for me (because they've already bought them) by signing into THEIR accounts on MY phone keep opening then closing. I cant do the authorize/reauthorize thing because those apps arent on my Itunes account, theyre just on my Iphone. Do i have to delete them and have my friends redownload them on my Iphone?

You should not have apps that are not associated with your account.
Apps are tied to the account from which they are purchased and are no meant to be given to someone else. They are DRM protected to stop this from happening.

Apps open then close by themselves

I recently bought and downloaded Adobe CC and when I tried to open the apps I installed they opened then closed after a few seconds. I have an
ASUS notebook with windows 8 installed on it. I tried signing out and back into CC but that didn't work. please help I need the apps for University work.

Hi joecmeldrum,
Welcome to Adobe Forum,
I assume that you have already performed the steps in http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/cc-applications-crash-immediately-launch.html
It will best to contact Support via http://adobe.ly/yxj0t6 for complete & faster resolution.

Hi,

Can you explain what that is? Thank you if you have one example.
ROWS BETWEEN UNBOUNDED PRECEDING AND 1 PRECEDING
When you use the analytic SUM (c) function, then, on each row, it returns the values of column (or expression) c from several rows in the result set added together.
Which rows? That depends.
If the analytic clause (the part in parentheses after OVER) does not include ORDER BY, then it is all rows.
If the analytic clause has an ORDER BY clause, but no windowing clause (that is, ROWS BETWEEN ... or RANGE BETWEEN ...), then the rows included in the sum are all rows up to and including the row where the function is being called (as sorted by the analytic ORDER BY).
If the analytic cluase has both ORDER BY and a windowing clause "ROWS BETWEEN x PRECEDING AND y PRECEDING", then the rows included in the sum are the rows from x to y rows before the one where the function is called.
Do some experiments with different values of x and y.
First, create a table like the one in the problem above, but simplified a little.
CREATE TABLE     test_sum
(      period     NUMBER
,      new_amt     NUMBER
INSERT INTO test_sum (period, new_amt) VALUES (24108,     1);
INSERT INTO test_sum (period, new_amt) VALUES (24109,     4);
INSERT INTO test_sum (period, new_amt) VALUES (24110,     2);
INSERT INTO test_sum (period, new_amt) VALUES (24111,     8);
INSERT INTO test_sum (period, new_amt) VALUES (25001,     32);
INSERT INTO test_sum (period, new_amt) VALUES (25002,     16);
COMMIT;The original problem above used names that were meaningful for its application, and columns that have nothing to do with the SUM function. Let's simplify the former and lose the latter.
That problem involved the SUM of three columns added together. Since we just want to understand how the windowing clause works, let's simplify that to one column.
With these simplifications, my original query is:
SELECT       period
,       new_amt
,       SUM (new_amt) OVER ( ORDER BY          period
                                     ROWS BETWEEN UNBOUNDED PRECEDING
                             AND          1            PRECEDING
                    ) AS opening_balance
,       SUM (new_amt) OVER ( ORDER BY          period
                    ) AS closing_balance
FROM       test_sum
ORDER BY period;Given the data above, it produces these results:
.   PERIOD    NEW_AMT OPENING_BALANCE CLOSING_BALANCE
     24108          1                               1
     24109          4               1               5
     24110          2               5               7
     24111          8               7              15
     25001         32              15              47
     25002         16              47              63So, for example, on the row where period=24110,
opening_balance=5, which is the total of new_amt from all rows up to but not including that row: 5=1+4, and
closing_balance=7, which is the total of new_amt from all rows up to and including that row: 7=1+4+2.
To really understand how the windowing clause works, do some experiments. Change the definition of opening_balance to include " BETWEEN x PRECEDING AND y PRECEDING". You'll find that:
(a) "UNBOUNDED PRECEDING" means the same as "n PRECEDING", where n is greater than the number of rows in your result set.
(b) "CURRENT ROW" means the same as "0 PRECEDING"
(c) x must be greater than or equal to y
(d) neither x nor y can be negative (but you can use "FOLLOWING" instead of "PRECEDING" to get the same effect).
For more, see the introduction to "Analytic Functions" in the [SQL Language manual|http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B28359_01/server.111/b28286/functions001.htm#sthref972]
When you're finished, don't forget to
DROP TABLE     test_sum;

How to open already closed period in MM

Hello GURU
I have heard its porrible to open alrady closed period in MM in MMPI
But I would like to know your opinion and how exactyl this can be done?we are in 04 period now and user wnats to open period 01
thanks in advance
hana

Hello Hana,
It is possible to reopen a previously closed period. However, it isn't
advisable to do because the valuation data of the previous period could
get affected. If you decide to proceed with the process, please review
the documentation of program RMMMINIT (To see this documentation, please
do the following: SE38, RMMMINIT, and select the documentation button
and display).
Take into account the documentation of the program RMMMINIT:
"Caution
Be careful if the period used for initialization precedes the current
period in the control record for the company code since this can result
in an inconsistency between goods movements and material master segments
This is because the stock information in the material master segments is
assigned to the new current period in this case."
Please also review the note 70545 regarding the initialization
process. Although this note is NOT valid for your release, it provides
good information on the use of initialization for correction purposes.
Additionally, please review the note 369637 in this regard as well.
PLEASE FIRST PERFORM THIS IN A TEST/DEVELOPMENT SYSTEM PRIOR TO MOVING
TO PRODUCTION AS YOUR VALUATION DATA FROM PREVIOUS PERIOD WILL BE
AFFECTED. If you are satisfied with the results, then you can move it
to production.
Also see the SAP On-line documentation (http://help.sap.com):
Logistics - General (LO)
-> Logistics Basic Data (LO-MD)
-> Material Master (LO-MD-MM)
-> Period closing
In addition, as you know, please check the following note as well:
487381 - RMMMINIT: Protection against unintentionial execution
I hope this information helps you.

Re-opening a closed financial period

Hi,
Silly question, How do I re-open a previously closed financial period? We've closed a number of months in our financial year which I now need to re-open.
Thanks
Dan

Hi Dan,
you need to get into the posting period window & then reactivate the periods in question.
In 2007, go to Administration -> System Initialisation -> Posting periods
Click on the orange link arrow of the period to be reopened & then change the period status to the appropriate one.
Lower than version 2007, the posting periods are here:
Administration -> System Initialisation -> General Settings -> Posting Period tab.
Please check the on-line help for info about the period statuses.
Also, you need to keep in mind that if you add any postings to any of these periods, all reporting must be re-run.
All the best,
Kerstin
