Posting period opened 10/2008 instead 03/2008. (MM)

Dear friends,
My mistakenly I have opened period 10/2008 in Sanbox system. I required putting back the current period as 03/2008. Already happened some transactions in period 01/2008. To reverse is there any program or manual reversal? / pls give steps to correct.
Please help; this is critical and effecting testing.
Thanks in advance.
RAMAN.

Hi Ven,
Try this method for only Sand box Server
1. Deassign the Plants from your company code
2. Go to OMSY and change the periods....
3. Assign the Plants to your company code again..
4. Go to OMWD and correct the valuation grouping code
for your plants,...
Also you can check this link

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

2 posting periods open in OB52

Hi,
I have an issue about posting period. We always keep 2 period open in OB52. For example, currently From period is 9 and To period is 10. I do not know why business keep 2 months open. Then it caused the problem in SD. During Day one of month end (not the first day in calendar), SD batch job (PGI and billing) run and posted in new period which should not. Even though, it is because some variants in SD batch job are wrong. But if the posting period is open only for one month, then we will not have this problem.
Is SAP best practice to keep only one month open in posting period?
Thanks in advance,
DL

Posting Period - Opening

Hi CB,
Thanks for the information.
In our company,we maintain Fiscal year from November to October.
Nov = first month.
*Can you let me know what should i do now to open the period 2009/09*
Thanks

Hi,
Go to MMRV and check the current period. Next go to MMPV close current period by period.
MMRV-display current and previous posting periods
MMPV- open new mm period
Here period means month in general terminology
You can open only one period at a time.
If Financial year is from January to December then, period 01 = January and period 12=December in MM periods.
If Financial year is from April to March then, period 01 = April (this year) and period 12= March (next year) in MM periods.
In your case financial year november to october then Period 01=November(this year) and period 12 = October(next year)
Now goto MMPV and close current period. system automatically Opens the next period the posting period accordingly.

Wrong posting period open

Dear All,
Wrongly i had opened June 2009 instade of May 2009. How i can delete this entry.
I got note no. 487381 but i am not able to find the transaction or manu path for the same.
there are no postings made in june 2009. Please reply urgently if anybody has faced the same issue.
Regards,
Umesh

Hi
As per other experts contact SAP first and do all these things later.
It is possible to reopen closed period. However, it is not advisable to do so because the valuation data of the previous period could get affected.
If you still decided to proceed with this process, please review the documentation of program RMMMINIT (in SE38, enter the program RMMMINIT, select the documentation radio button and click on 'Display').
Please also, have a look at the documentation of the program RMMMINIT in the paragraph 'Precondition'.
Also study note 70545, 369637.
Also note that carry out same in Dev server first test it in all respect and then dare to make same in PRD server.
Also important is SAP will not support you the problems which are may occur due to this.
Best luck

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.
Regards,
Gopi Krishna
SAP QA Lead

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.

Hi,
First check the Current period in OMSY trx...for your Comp code..
Then go to MMPV and enter Comp code, Period & Year
and execute...
Ex: if the current period in OMSY for your Comp code is 01,2008
then you need to enter period 02, 2008 in MMPV trx...
so, that period 01 will be closed & Period 02 will be opened automatically...
You need to close periods one by one like this..
until the period you want use...
Remember you can not Roll back the closed period
Be careful in closing the MM period in PRD client.
Thx
Raju

Hi
I want to know that what is the meaning of + while populating the posting period variant with data for posting periods and also what will be the effect if we donot put the same. Instead that we only put the entry for A D K M S.

Hi Srikanth
Thanks for the quick response.
But does your answer mean that if we put only + and no other entries for A D K M S then all a/cs will have the same posting periods open for them.

Hi,
If you are sure Open period in MM: 01/2011 (12/2010) & 02/2011 not opened( can be cross checked in MMRV)
As you want post in 12/2010,then use t.code: OB52 and open the 12, 2010 period in Account Types A, K, D,M, S and specially Account Type u201C+u201D which stands for valid for all accounts type and save.

T.code for opening of posting periods

Hi Can any body give me the T code of posting periods open thorugh easy access menu ? BR..AJ

Hi,
You can change the functionality of OB52 making it possible to do the changes in production directly. Read note 77430 to do so... The relevant object is V_T001B.
Regarding your later question, it does not matter what date is now in your developement system; whatever data you will put there, it will be transported to the target system.

Hi Friends,
We have to open posting period in test client acc. to client's requirement, but when we are using MMPv for this we are getting message that current posting period is 07/2008.So when we are trying to close the posting periods starting from 07/2008, we are getting message that calendar year 2008 is not current fiscal year.
Please help.

We have checked in MMRV, the following entries are coming correponding to the required company code:
Current period 07 2008
Previous period 06 2008
Last period in prev.year 12 2007
Option Disallow backposting generally is selected.
So i understand the current period opened w.r.t copmant code( required one) is 07/2008. When we are trying to close the periods starting from 07/2008 through MMPV, message comes that year 2008 is not current calendar year.

Posting Period MMPV

Hello All,
I am trying to post stock to a Material in the MB1C transction.
But I keep getting this message "Posting only possible in periods 2009/06 and 2009/05 in company code SPIL".
I have opened the period in MMPV. Can some one tell me where do we assign the calender to the company code.
Please help.
Thanks,
Sneha.

Dear Sneha
As Mr.Murali pointed out this has to be done in OB52 and MMPV and to see what is the current period you need to see MMRV
Menu path to t code OB52
img-financial accounting new-financial accounting global settings (new)--ledgers-fiscal year and posting periods-posting periods-open and close posting periods(OB52)
First of all you must see what the posting period varient maintained for your company code
This you can see in OBY6 (in processing parameters tab you can see that) and what the fiscal year varient maintained in your company code in t code OBY6
In that take your posting period varient say if it is 1000
Then in OB52 you have to maintain like this
1000--S-blank---zzzzzzzzzz--01-2009-12-2009---13-201016---2010
like this you have to maintain for A,+,D,K,M,V(account types) the second colunmn and do this and save
This is check one
You have to close all the previous periods thro MMPV transaction
For this you first need to see what is the current period in in MMRV
Go to MMRV first and input your company code ans see what is the current period maintained there
As today is feb 11 th 2009 the previous period should look like 01/2009(normal settings) in MMRV and the current period should be 02/2009
That means the period is closed till jan 09
If in MMRV the previous period is say 07/2008 then it means you have to close periods from july 08 to jan 09
for this go to MMPV and input company code code and the date as 01.08.2008 then a log will come that means july is closed and august is open like that 01.09.2008, 01.10.2008, 01.11.2008, 01.12.2008, 01.01.2009 and 01.02.2009 that till feb 09 every month it has to be done
When you input 01.02.2009 in MMPV and execute that means the period jan 09 is closed and (a log will come) and feb 09 is open which you can see in MMRV as the current period as 02/2009 and previous period as 01/2009
Better to take MM help if you are new to this
This is check 2
