Restricted posting in previos posting period

Question

Dear All,
As per our normal practice for quarterly closing, the posting period is closed before the end of month (a week before) and a new posting period is opened at the same time for the starting month. However, the Bank Statements are received from the bank on the first day of new month. The user needs to execute bank statement upload in the previous posting period for the reason that no new payment can be made by any user in that date which can cause problem in reconciliation of published accounts. It is an understanding that the statement upload does not impact the cumulative balances of bank accounts (6++++++1 for upload, 6+++++2 for check incoming, 6+++++3 for check outgoing, 6+++++4 for others incoming / outgoing). We also need to restrict our user / users just to post to the G/L for the Bank Accounts (6+++++++ series) in the previous posting period.
We created user groups in OB52 and assigned them to the specific users to execute bank statement upload in the previous period but using this authorization group technique we can’t stop our users to only post to Bank G\L accounts because the authorization group only works for Accounting type "Valid for all Accounts types".
Please explain the procedure through which the users are able
1 – To post in the previous posting period.
2 – And ONLY to specific bank G\L accounts series.

Shabbir Hussain
