Revert the posting period

How to Revert the posting period? eg: if the posting period is dec 2007 how to change that to current month?

HI,
You need to initialise the posting period through MMPI todo that the following steps needs to follow
1)once you close the period it will raise data inconsistency for that you need to miantain the MMPI_READ_NOTE with current date format in your User ID
Then only system will allow to initialise
Please check and let me know if you have any clarifications

Problems with the posting period....

Hi guys,
every once in a while the old problem with the posting periods occurs. This morning it hit me and I went out to repair it.
Starting out from MMRV I checked the open period and it said 062009.
Using MMPV, by mistake, I opened 112009, so that I'm able to post to 112009 PLUS the previous period 102009 (which is ok so far). Later on I checked OB52 to see, if finance is not the problem. The opened period lasts from 012009 to 122009.
Long story short: everything seems perfectly alright, however it still doesn't work. It says: Posting only possible in periods 2009/11 and 2009/10 in company code 1000
I don't see where there could be a problem now...
Any help is greatly appreciated!
Thx & regards,
Bobby

Hi,
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 01/10/2009 for Oct. 2009 month to be opened as of now
That means, user can post for the month of sept 2009 as well as Oct. 2009
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.
Other way of doing it is follow these steps: ( *TRY in Sandbox But do not try in PRODUCTION SYSTEM*)
1. Use t.code: OX18, and delete the plants assigned to your CO.Cd and save.
2. Use t.code: 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.

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

How to substitute a month abbreviation for the posting period in a query

Hi,
I have a query that lists the Posting Period (0FISCPER3) characteristic in the rows and key figures across the columns. Is there a way to display the Posting Period as a month abbreviation instead of a number?
So for example, instead of displaying the periods 01, 02, 03, 04... in the rows, I would like to display the abbreviation of the corresponding month, for example Jun, Jul, Aug, Sep... etc.
Thanks,
Mustafa.

Hi,
Thanks for the suggestions. If the master data texts are updated for characteristic "0FISCPER3", this would assume that all Company Codes have the same Fiscal Year Variant. What happens in a situation where there are multiple Company Codes with different Fiscal Year Variants, a case which is common for multinational companies?
Can such a manipulation be performed in the query itself based on the Fiscal Year Variant?
Regards,
Mustafa.

Error in Opening the Posting Period.

Hi All,
The Current period in the system is 10 2009.
The Previous period in the system is 09 2009.
When trying to open the posting period 11 2009 ( through MMPV ), system throws an error saying "The specified year 2009 is not the current calendar year" and then a log is issued.
Can anybody help me in this. Please...
Any help is appreciated.
Edited by: Himanshu Bhusan Sahoo on Apr 12, 2010 11:45 AM

Thanks Everybody for your help. It was resolved.
The Periods in the Fiscal Year Variant (Z1 is my case) were not maintained for the Calendar Year 2009.
Maintenance was done in SPRO in the following path ( Financial Accounting/ Financial Accounting Global Settings/Fiscal Year/ Maintain Fiscal Year Variant (Maintain Shortened Fisc. Year) ).
And after this I could close and open the periods in the system.
Thank you all for the help.

I want to change the posting period

I want to change the posting period for closed period. how can to do?. My period 2010 is in period but I want periods in months. who can I help me?

Hi Mary.......
One you created you can not change the type of periods of Posting Period.
This is SAP Standard that once you created you can not change it.
But if you have not done transactions for that period then you can remove and recreate with the period type as 12 Months...

Previous Year entries after defining the posting period

Dear Experts,
I have defined the posting period with the new period indicators. I have also defined the new numbering series for the current year and assigned the period indicator for the current year to the documents.
Now my client wants to do some document entries in the previous year period. but when we open the document it is showing the current year series only. even though the previous periods are unlocked, it is not showing the document series of the previous posting period in the documents.
we are using B1 2007 B PL 13. Please help me.
thanks and regards,
Yeshwanth Prakash

Hi!
Once after you change your posting date (Previous year date ) in the document system will automatically show the previous Series

Unable to close the posting periods in MM

Hello
while using MMPV the system says that the date not current calender year. If I check OMSY the open year is 2002.I need to know that how you close the open periods of previous years.I am supposed to close all the periods one by one but how to close them for the year 2002.
I tried to initialise the periods as well but the system asks me to check OSS notes 487381 before initialisation.
Please guide me as I've read all the threads related to this error but still unable to close the periods.
Thanks & Regards
Ashish

Hi,
You need to close the periods one by one from 2002. There is no other way.
Go to OMSY check what is the current period,
e.g it is 02/2002.
then got MMPV,
Enter 03 and year as 2002 then execute, repeate till 12/2002,
then again start MMPV from 01/2003 to 12/2003. you have to perform this till current period of 2008.
Thanks

Reversing a flow in TPM10 when the posting period is closed

Hi,
I have an interest rate instrument. I want to reverse one of the flows that got posted. The flow was posted in November 2010 (which is closed now) using TBB1 with creating a payment request. The payment request is still open, did not get paid through F111.
I went to FTR_EDIT, marked the flow as Reverse.
Went to TPM10, I can see the flow. When I attempt to reverse the flow, I get the error that period 11, 2010 is closed.
In the selection screen of TPM10, I enter a posting date in the current open period. I get the error that reason 01 allows posting only in date 03.11.2010.
There is no option to change the FI reversal reason to 02. How can I reverse a flow in TPM10 in a closed period?

Hi,
In customizing, Transaction manager -- General Settings -- Accounting -- Define Reasons for Reversal. In this check how reversal reason 01 is defined. This is the reversal reason you specify in TPM10 and this is in addition to the FI reversal reason. Here you can specify the FI reversal reason as reversal in current period and enter a current date for reversal or give a reversal reason as reversal in closed period.

Ravi

Re open the closed Posting Periods - Very Urgent

Dear Experts,
We have an urgent problem to solve.The company code currently we are configuring uses fiscal year (oct - Sept) and the other company codes in our client site uses (jan -Dec). So by mistake we closed posting periods using MMPV upto 2007 03 but it should be 2006 06(correct me if i am wrong).
As we are still in baseline configuration we don't have any material document in the current company code. From this forum I got some solution to intialize the posting period using MMPI(which directed me to use SAP Note 487381).
Now if I do MMPI with the directions mentioned in SAP Note 487381, will i face any problem now & in future.
Please suggest me and help me as has become hurdle for the test process.
Thanks in Advance...
Nagesh Aswartha

Hi Aswartha
As you do not have any material documents , pl go ahead and initialize the periods. Should not be a problem.
I normally do this to avoid errors:
In MMPV, never give a period. Enter the current date(or first date of the month) in the date field and execute closing program.
Best regards
Ramki
