SAP HR /PY Accrual and posting Period

Hello SAP Experts,
The posting date of our Payroll is always 'Plus 2'. For example, if the fortnightly pay period ends on 29/5/2011, the posting date and the EFT release date will be 31/5/2011 - this pay period should therefore be included in May accounting.
However, our software vendor is telling us that where the posting date (i.e. pay period end plus 2) falls on the end of month date, that the system cannot recognize this pay period in May accounting. Rather this period will now be included in June accounting, and therefore, the system will calculate and post accruals in the previous pay period of 15/5/2011 i.e. 10 day accrual.
Is there a way that SAP can be configured to allow period 29/5/2011 to be included in May accounting and for No accruals to be calculated in the previous pay period?

Posting date and posting periods

HI Experts,
I am practicing IDES for SD. While using T VL02N for post good Issue I got this error:
<b>Posting only possible in periods 2006/12 and 2006/11 in company code 1000
Message no. M7053
Diagnosis
The posting date entered is not within one of the permitted posting periods (current period/previous period).
This can be due to one of two reasons:
The correct current period has not been set in the system.
For the system, the first of the entered periods is the current period. At the beginning of a new period, your systems administrator must change the current period in the material master record, using the function "Shift periods". This has not yet been done.
You have entered a wrong date in the field "Posting date".
Procedure
Check the posting date and correct it if necessary. If your input is correct, inform your systems administrator that the "period shifting" (period-end closing) process has not yet been completed. Copied from M8022</b>
I don;t think there is problem with my posting date. Can someone guide me on how solving this
Thanks
Yael

Go to OMSY and check the periods are current peiods or not to ur comp code?
If it is not the current period.
close the posting period by going to MMPV.
let us say comp code EG, YEAR-2006 PE-6
so you have to close the posting periods for all months till this month.
from comp code-EG
To comp code- EG
period-7
fiscal year-2006
repeat the same but with period-8(month) 9,10,11,12,
and do the same for 2007 too till you get the current month in OMSY T-Code.
you need to do close the period end of every month.
thank you

Accrual and Posting to a Account

Is it possible for a condition record to both Post & Accrue as system allows me to put account key and accrual key?
If I want to use accrual key - should i define the condition record as an accrual in control2 portion of condition record configuration? Is it not possible to use a condition record that is not having accrual key to post an accrual?
Can some one give me a bit more elaboration on accrual, account key?
Appreciate your help.

Hi
Accrual Key is used only for Rebate conditions. For Rebate conditions, you need to specify Account key as well as Accrual Key in the Pricing Procedure.
For Rebate conditions, you need to specify the "Account Key", which specify in which G/L account, the discount amount will be posted.
This Rebate discount, we have to pay back to the customer when the Rebate will be settled and till that time, it is accrued with us.
So, it is posted to a special G/L account meant for accrual only.
For Rebate conditions, Accrual Key is specified in the Pricing Procedure, from which system identifies the appropriate account and posts the accrual amounts.
The accrual rate and the Rebate rate both are specified in the Condition record created within the Rebate agreement.
If the Accrual rate is not specified in the condition record, then system does not post any accrual to Accounting.
When Rebate is settled, this accrual amount is apid back to the Rebate receipient and that is how Rebate is settled.

Fiscal year and posting period

Hai friends,
I have a requirement like this,
when I choose say 02/2008(posting period/fiscal year or posting period and fiscal year) in the Variable. I also get data for the last twelve months.so my report would have
02/2008,01/2008 ,12/2007.03/2007.
This variable should default to current posting period/fiscal year. So when somebody logs in he sees the current month and last twelve months.He can then change it to whatever he wants.
The way I see it is that I have to write a customer exit and create a variable in which in to we will have current fiscal year/period and in from will have Current fiscal year/period-12.
How to do this.
Any help will be rewarded.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Your approach is right.
If you want the values to default and allow the users to change it, you should put the code under STEP I.
WHEN 'variable'.
IF I_STEP = 1.
REFRESH e_t_range.
CLEAR l_s_range.
l_s_range-sign = 'I'.
l_s_range-opt = 'BT'.
l_s_range-low = 'Current Value - 11 periods'
l_s_range-high = 'Current Value'
APPEND l_s_range TO e_t_range.
Mathew.

PGI and Posting Period

Hi gurus
I did search through the forum but i couldnt find the solution that i needed.
Actually my problem goes this way..
1) I created the Sales order 25.12.2008 . The request Delivery date is 05.01.2009
2) I created the Outbound Delivery 04.02.2009
3) I created the Invoice 04.02.2009
When i try to do PGI on the Outbound Delivery . system give me error stated that Posting only
possible in periods 2008/08 (NOV) and 2008/07 (OCT).
Is there any possible way to change the date on the outbound delivery so that i can do PGI? instead of channing the open period screen(MMPV)or(OB52)
Thanks
Wilson

Dear Wilson
The best way to go about this in MMPV close from aug 08 to janauary 09
But if you change the actual GI date in the delivery to the period which is open you can post in the period which is open without touching MMPV (as our Elite friend Mr.Lakshmipathi has suggested)
Doing this is not advisable as you have to change every thing strating from sales order posting date in the header and picking date in delivery, loading date in delivery,Planned GI and actual GI
Otherwise you may have a lot warning messages or some error messages also. But can be tried
Best and honest way of doing this is MMPV closing momthwise

Where we have to open and close posting periods in asset accounting

hi sap gurus
can anybody give where we have to open and close posting periods in asset accounting
thank you
venkatareddy

Hi Venkatareddy,
You make specifications for fiscal years and posting periods in the SAP R/3 System in Customizing for Financial Accounting. This is done in the fiscal year variant in the global parameters of the company code. These settings are, in general, also binding for Asset Accounting. The depreciation periods in Asset Accounting then correspond to the posting periods in Financial Accounting.<b> It is usually not necessary to create a separate fiscal year variant for Asset Accounting.</b>
The period control in the depreciation key determines the start and end of depreciation when asset transactions are posted . The period control determines the relationship between the calendar period in which the asset transaction is posted and the depreciation period.
These calendar periods are independent of the posting periods in Financial Accounting. The only restriction is that the beginning of the first calendar period and the end of the last calendar period defined in a period control have to match the start date and final date of the fiscal year in Financial Accounting.
Kindly let me know if this useful for you

Posting period 005 2020 is not open when perfomr /dbm/cashdesk cancellation

Hi Expert,
Currently our SAP DBM on patch7 & SP04 (latest), now i would like to cancel cash document in /dbm/cashdesk and system come out with error as below:
Posting period 005 2020 is not open
Message no. F5201
Diagnosis
Period 005 of fiscal year 2020 is not open for posting for the variant of posting period 5000.
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 5000 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 5000 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.
I able to post cashdesk document in customer incoming payment tab and i cannot cancel due to posting period 05 & year 2020 not open.
Currently we are in 05 2011 not 2020, is any expert can advice where to set cashdesk fiscal year configure?
I need to open FI period until 05 2020, then my cash document cancellation is successful.
Thanks

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

Currency translation key based on posting period 0fiscper3

Hi Folks,
The requirement is to perform currency translation in query based on the end of period.The query uses the time characteristics as fiscal year (0FISCYEAR) and posting period (0FISCPER3).
    I have maintained the currency translation key using RRC1 with variable time ref as 0FISCPOER3 .On executing the query I am getting error that 'No Exchange rate maintained ' .But the exchange rates are maintained in the system.
   SAP Help states that the variable time reference has to be a standard InfoObject as 0FISCPER or 0FISCYEAR   or customer defined Infobject with type date.
0FISCPER3 is of type NUMC .
   Is this the reason that I am not getting the currency translation ?? or I am missing out in some settings.
Please advise .Due points will be granted .
Thx,
Gautam

Hi Gautam,
0FISCPER3 just stores the period values as 001, 002, 003 etc, with no reference to the year (and hence no reference to a fixed point in time). Try create the RRC1 key using 0FISCPER and use this in your query.
Hope this helps...

Non-Permitted posting period 013

Hello Experts,
When we try to load the data in BW after upgrade of ECC system we are getting the below issue.
Non-Permitted posting period 013.
Kindly help
Thanks and Regards,
Priya

Hi,
By default, SAP sets the number of posting period to 12 in an year.
In order to allow periods more than that please customize the same in TCODE OB29.
Though you can do the same in BW as well, but when you transfer global settings , it gets overwritten , so its better to keep R/3 and BW in sync.

How to hide posting periods?

Hi,
I'm just wondering how one can hide posting periods that is not in use anymore? The system doesn't have that option as far as I can see, but I'm wondering if it's even possible?
These posting periods are under Administration - System initialisation - Posting periods.
After one has had SAP for a while, the posting periods are quite many. So we had a question from a customer asking how to hide the ones they're not using anymore (for instance periods from 4-5 years back).
Hope that you can help me to figure this out!
Br,
Lena-Marie Digre

Hi,
If just looking for correct posting period or find the correct posting period, move your mouse to the posting period window in what ever field or row of posting period, just right click and select filter table. In the filter table, just specify the posting period you want to find. It is more easy. Just use filter table feature. E.g. of the finding 2006-01:
in the filter table window:
the column Field : period code
the column Rule : Equal
the column Value : 2006-01
The value can be entered manually. you do not need to select / scroll down. Good luck.
