Running business when the SAP calendar is considered a holiday

Question

SAPu2019s factory/holiday calendar considers 12/31/10 as a holiday.  Graybar Electric is open for business as usual for 12/31/10.  We had issue with our loadbuild batch job that created purchase orders.  These orders have a create date of 12/31/10 but it inserted the document date as 1/3/11 (next business day).  We know we can move up a transport to exclude 12/31/10 as a holiday but we donu2019t know the ramifications of doing so when weu2019ve already processed transactions as it being a holiday.  We also need to determine if weu2019ll have any more issues when we run batch tonight especially with the financial postings, accruals and reporting if we donu2019t exclude 12/31/10 as a holiday.  Weu2019ve run some preliminary tests and have determined that billing and other batch jobs will use a date of 12/31/10.  Can someone verify whether we will have any issues if we donu2019t exclude 12/31/10 as a holiday?

Answer 1

Hi,
Regarding financial postings, it will not make any issue if you do not exclude 31 dec as holiday. System will then consider these postings in the same Dec posting period.
