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.

  • 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

  • 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

  • Posting period 002 2011 is not open (MRKO)

    Dear experts,
    I process Vendor consignment:
    1. Goods receipt - 501K
    2. Transfer posting - 411K
    3. MRKO
    On MRKO, I choose Document date and Posting date is: 17.12.2010
    Open period in MM: 01/2011 (12/2010)
    Now is 02/2011 but I want to post in 17.12.2010
    I get this error:
    Posting period 002 2011 is not open
    Message no. F5201
    Diagnosis
    Period 002 of fiscal year 2011 is not open for posting for the variant of posting period 2650.
    System Response
    Processing cannot be continued.
    Procedure
    The error can have several causes. In order to eliminate the error, proceed as follows:
    1. Check whether the posting date was entered correctly. The system determines the posting period by means of the date.
    2. Check whether the required posting period is open for posting for the variant of posting period 2650 and account type +. Make sure that the period is open for posting.
    To do this, specify a period interval in which the required period for the variant of posting period 2650 and account type + is contained.
    You make these settings in Customizing of Financial Accounting (New) under Financial Accounting Global Settings (New) -> Ledgers -> Fiscal Year and Posting Periods - > Posting Periods -> Open and Close Posting Periods.
    Plz help!

    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.

    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

  • OB52 - open and close posting period

    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.
    Also how to keep two different posting periods open for open for two different assets (A).

    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.

  • 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

  • Cutover - Posting Period

    2007B
    Need to upload open AR/AP Invoices( Service type) to post BP opening balances.
    There are open invoices from the year- 2003, 2005 , etc. This is considered as the posting date as the exchange rate conversions need to be of that date (exchange rate convrsions are based on posting rate)
    Should we create posting periods for those years to upload the open invoices of those date ranges?
    Is that recommended? if not what should be done?

    Hi Kerstin,
    Thanks for the clarity. 
    In India, the financial year starts from  APR 01 and ends MAR 31 ( current Financial year 01-APR- 08 to 31- MAR- 09)
    We here have posting periods for every month (total of 12 posting periods)
    I can bring the closing balances of 31-MAR-08 (last financial year closing date) as the opening balance for the current financial year APR 01.
    Upload all the current financial year AR/AP invoices from APR 01 (will keep all the previous month posting period open and upload all the open documents)
    My current Posting period is of  NOV month.
    My questions:
    In this case, If I close the posting period from APR to OCT one by one( 7 posting periods ) after uploading the open documents, the period closing journal entries will be created. Will this have any issues? Is there any better way to do it?
    whats are the implications of closing a posting period ?
