Two intervals in Open and Close Posting Period (OB52)

What is the purpose of the two intervals (period 1 and period 2) in Open and Close Posting Periods (transaction OB52)?

Hi,
Financial statements cannot be prepared on the last day of the accounting period... to find out the correct profit and to determine the correct financial positing... sometimes you may require to make some adjustment to accounting records after the closing of the accounting year... like adjustments for expenses payable, income receivable, writting off bad debts ...etc.
For posting those transactions....period 2 is maintained ..which are also called as special periods... to make the postings in these periods ...special authorisation is required.....
Period 1 is for regular postings ...

Open and Close Posting Period (OB52)

Dear Experts,
My client wants to close the posting period of the previous month.
First I went to transaction OB52 to define an entry From Per. 1 2008 To Per. 12 2009 to open all the posting period for the year. But when the time passes, do I have to manually change the From Per. back to the current month (e.g From Per.1 2008 changed to From Per. 2 2008 and so on)
If this is the case, is there any way to make this a automatic function to do this.
Points will be rewarded.
Thanks.

Hi,
You define posting periods in your fiscal year variants. You can open and close these posting periods for posting. As many periods as you require can be open for posting simultaneously. Special periods can be open for closing postings during the period-end closing.
You have the following options for opening and closing posting periods:
- Posting Period Variants: You can specify which company codes are open for posting in a posting period variant. Posting period variants are cross-company code and you have to assign them to your company codes.
- Account Type: You can differentiate the opening and closing of posting periods by account type. This means that for a specific posting period, postings can be permitted to customer accounts, but not to vendor accounts.
- Account Interval: You can differentiate the opening and closing of posting periods by account intervals. This means that you only open a posting period for posting to a specific account.
Path for making the settings for opening and closing posting periods:
Customizing for Financial Accounting under Financial Accounting Global Settings -> Document -> Posting Periods
For detailed example for opening and closing posting periods please refer the link below:
http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_03/helpdata/EN/96/8b300943ce11d189ee0000e81ddfac/frameset.htm

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.

Maintaining Posting Periods on productive client.

hi all.
Is there any way of maintaining posting periods "OB52" (IMG activity) without changing the status of productive client to modifiable. I know one way is to maintain the posting periods in dev and then transport. Is there any other way? (directly in production) and also what is the recommended method for doing this.

Hello Rizwan,
You can maintan OB52 in productive client by keeping the client as productive.The settings in SCC4 have to be like this :
Client Role: Production
Changes and Transport for client specific objects: Not allowed.
Client Independent object changes: No changes to Repository and cross client authorization objects allowed.
These settings will allow users to maintain OB52 in production clients but won't allow them access to maintain general customizing.
Further you would need to assign authorizations for S_TABU_DIS as mentioned by Barry.
OB52 is nothing but a view of table T001B. The authorization group for T001B table in table maintainence generator is FC31.
So whosever needs to maintain OB52 needs to have proper authorization for this table via S_TABU_DIS.
The values assigned have to be :
Activity 02,03
Authorization Group: FC31.
Also you can check whether OB52 is allowed for maintainence in production.
For this go to transaction SOBJ. Then check the check box against enter conditions and click on display. A pop up would come up. here you can give the view name V_T001B. In the resulting screen check for the check box against Current Settings. If it is checked then OB52 is open for maintainence in production client.
There is one more method:
Go to SPRO. Then to SAP Reference IMG. Go to the node for opening and closing posting periods. You can also search for this using Control+F option. Use the search string " Open and Close Posting Periods".
Once there click on it. Then in menu bar go to EDIT and then to display IMG activity. In the next screen to go tab Maint. objects under the selection block Assigned objects. Here you will find an entry for table V_T001B. Double click on it a new screen appears. Here just check if the check box against current settings is checked. If it is then OB52 can be maitained in production clients.
Please award points if the answer was helpful to you.
With Regards.

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

Restrict Open / Close Posting Periods for Users (OB52 / S_ALR_87003642 )

Hello everybody.
I'd like to know if there is a way to restrict that some users open posting periods in OB52 or S_ALR_87003642 and some other different users close posting periods.
Hoping you could help it, as our organization had that policy from our previous system,
Best regards,
Elvis E. Henriquez A.

Hi
Sorry, but I do not think that's possible in SAP Standard.
OB52 / S_ALR_87003642 are build around a maintenance view for table T001B. This mean that the access primarily are controlled by the S_TABU_DIS (and S_TABU_LIN) object, and with these object's you can control access to maintain / display only, you can not control the values of the input data.
I think that you will need to create your own application and authorization object in order to achieve your requirement.

OB52 authorisation group (close&open posting periods only for partic users

Dear FI-CO Guru's
In ob52- I want open postin periods
1)Certain group of user will allow for posting only normal periods
and
2) Certain group of users will allow for posting normal and special periods
this is our business requirement kindly suggest how can I maintain
Regards
GuruPrsad

Hi Guru,
If only a limited set of users is to be able to post in a particular
posting period, proceed as follows:
Add the posting period authorization (authorization object
F_BKPF_BUP) to the authorizations of the selected users. Assign an
authorization group (e.g. '0001').
Enter the account type '+' for the posting period variant to which
the restriction is to apply. Enter the period(s) whose use is to be restricted in the first period, those which are available to all
users in the second period, and the authorization group (e.g.
'0001') in the last column.
For this you need to consult with Basis people authorization matrix.

Teja

OB52 close posting periods

All,
Our finance people use transaction OB52 to close posting periods. This transaction very well might not be the correct one for my users to use. But there is no way to restrict this transaction by company code. I checked the available objects to switch in SU24. Basically our finance people have verbal instructions to not close periods for other comapny codes although they have authorization to do so.
Does anyone know 1) if OB52 is the correct transaction to use and 2) how we can restrict this transaction by company code?
Thank you,
Michael Jaynes

> but I forget which one
It is "stuck" in the IMG and has an equally meaningless description. Useless for a "normal" menu.
If you use the BUKRS field for S_TABU_LIN then it will have major consequences. Please be carefull of it.
F_BKPF_BUP-BEGRU is the correct approach (giving you also the option of maintaining and posting to account types and individual accounts).
From my experience a user with such access to OB52, can post anyway to the same KOART and then close it.
Cheers,
Julius

Restrict Access in OB52 by Posting Period Variant

Hello,
In our company there are many posting period variants. We want to restrict the access for opening and closing posting periods in OB52 by Posting period variant. i.e. User can open/close for a specific posting period variant and not all.
On searching on this forum, i found some solutions saying that one can create Screen variants according to Posting period Variant but i am not very clear on it.
It would be very helpful, if someone can provide detailed solution for this scenario; or share one's experience on this.
Thanks and regards,
Ankur

Inside OB52, the last column on the right is titled AuGr. Expanded, that stands for Authorization Group. Hit <F1> after keeping the cursor in that field and read what SAP has to say about that field.
That is the answer to what you need - a posting period can be made available to only a limited set of users using the Authorization Group. You'll need to enlist the help of your resident BASIS team members for putting this into use.
Remember to assign points if found useful.

FI posting period variant restricted in OB52

Hi,
First all of you have HAPPY NEW YEAR 2009.
My problem is i have multiple posting period variant (Multiple company code wise), i want to restrict posting peirod variant in OB52 i.e. one posting period variant for one company code to be open / close only by concerned user of that company code.
pls. advice asap.
regards,
mahesh

Hi
You have multiple posting period variants (multiple company code wise).
After the creation of posting period variant in OBBO you will assign the posting period variant to Company code in OBBP.Once you assign one posting period variant to company code , the posting period is restricted to that company code only.
use Authorization groups if you want to restrict the posting periods to the users.
suppose that authorization group for user A is A.
Go to OB52 -
>Open/Close posting periods.
Variant(posting period variant) , Account type , From Period1(6) , Year(2008) , To Period1(6) , Year(2008) , From Period2(7) , Year(2008) , To Period(7) , Authorization Group(A)
This means that periods 6 and 7 are accessible to Authorization group A and Period 7 is accessible to rest of the authorization groups.
This will solve your issue.

Venkat
