Scheduling opening and closing FI posting periods

Hi,
Could you please let me know if there is any program to schdule the opening and closing of FI posting periods, rather than doing it manually every month end.
Thanks
Uma

Hi,
I was at a customer who had multiple company codes and they had the business requirement of closing differenet types of accounts on different dates. For this I had got a program developed wherein the users had to mention the closing date and the account number. This program would run every day and if the current date is eqaul to the closing date in the program, system would execute transaction OB52 and close the corresponding account.
Regards,
Rohit

Open and Closing of Posting Periods in FI

Is it possible to open/close periods in FI per account? I'm using SAP ECC 6.0
Moderator: Please, avoid asking basic questions

Hi,
Yes, you can use authorization group: "A posting period can be made available to only a limited set of users using the authorization group"
You assign the authorization group in GL master.
Assign authorization object F_BKPF_BUP to user ids.
Open / close FI periods with AuGr in t-code: S_ALR_87003642
You can refer the help from S_ALR_87003642

Hi,

Can you explain what that is? Thank you if you have one example.
ROWS BETWEEN UNBOUNDED PRECEDING AND 1 PRECEDING
When you use the analytic SUM (c) function, then, on each row, it returns the values of column (or expression) c from several rows in the result set added together.
Which rows? That depends.
If the analytic clause (the part in parentheses after OVER) does not include ORDER BY, then it is all rows.
If the analytic clause has an ORDER BY clause, but no windowing clause (that is, ROWS BETWEEN ... or RANGE BETWEEN ...), then the rows included in the sum are all rows up to and including the row where the function is being called (as sorted by the analytic ORDER BY).
If the analytic cluase has both ORDER BY and a windowing clause "ROWS BETWEEN x PRECEDING AND y PRECEDING", then the rows included in the sum are the rows from x to y rows before the one where the function is called.
Do some experiments with different values of x and y.
First, create a table like the one in the problem above, but simplified a little.
CREATE TABLE     test_sum
(      period     NUMBER
,      new_amt     NUMBER
INSERT INTO test_sum (period, new_amt) VALUES (24108,     1);
INSERT INTO test_sum (period, new_amt) VALUES (24109,     4);
INSERT INTO test_sum (period, new_amt) VALUES (24110,     2);
INSERT INTO test_sum (period, new_amt) VALUES (24111,     8);
INSERT INTO test_sum (period, new_amt) VALUES (25001,     32);
INSERT INTO test_sum (period, new_amt) VALUES (25002,     16);
COMMIT;The original problem above used names that were meaningful for its application, and columns that have nothing to do with the SUM function. Let's simplify the former and lose the latter.
That problem involved the SUM of three columns added together. Since we just want to understand how the windowing clause works, let's simplify that to one column.
With these simplifications, my original query is:
SELECT       period
,       new_amt
,       SUM (new_amt) OVER ( ORDER BY          period
                                     ROWS BETWEEN UNBOUNDED PRECEDING
                             AND          1            PRECEDING
                    ) AS opening_balance
,       SUM (new_amt) OVER ( ORDER BY          period
                    ) AS closing_balance
FROM       test_sum
ORDER BY period;Given the data above, it produces these results:
.   PERIOD    NEW_AMT OPENING_BALANCE CLOSING_BALANCE
     24108          1                               1
     24109          4               1               5
     24110          2               5               7
     24111          8               7              15
     25001         32              15              47
     25002         16              47              63So, for example, on the row where period=24110,
opening_balance=5, which is the total of new_amt from all rows up to but not including that row: 5=1+4, and
closing_balance=7, which is the total of new_amt from all rows up to and including that row: 7=1+4+2.
To really understand how the windowing clause works, do some experiments. Change the definition of opening_balance to include " BETWEEN x PRECEDING AND y PRECEDING". You'll find that:
(a) "UNBOUNDED PRECEDING" means the same as "n PRECEDING", where n is greater than the number of rows in your result set.
(b) "CURRENT ROW" means the same as "0 PRECEDING"
(c) x must be greater than or equal to y
(d) neither x nor y can be negative (but you can use "FOLLOWING" instead of "PRECEDING" to get the same effect).
For more, see the introduction to "Analytic Functions" in the [SQL Language manual|http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B28359_01/server.111/b28286/functions001.htm#sthref972]
When you're finished, don't forget to
DROP TABLE     test_sum;

Open and Close GL Posting Periods

Hi,
We would like to allow only certain users to post to a previous month - is there a way that we can do this? For example, we opened Feb. but due to month end the accountants still need to make postings to Jan. - can we give only them access to Jan and restrict th eother users from posting to Jan.?

Hi
In OB52 you can mention Authorisation Group to make a set of employees authorised to make entries in the specified period. Please note that such authorisation apply to period 1 opened in first period field.
In your case you can open previous period in Period 1 with authorisation and normal period in Period 2.
Authorisation object F_BKPF_BUP
Hope this helps

Opening and Closing balance of a material

How to check the opening and closing balance of a material in a given period?
GL account /Plant/material number is known
Can we see along with the PO/reservations made in this period?
Is there any report or Tcode?

In mbew and mbewh table u will get the value and stock of material at plant level for each period( if plant is valuation level ) . GL account u will get from valuation class attched to material master.
Else use fi tcodefbl3n .
if u want closing balance for period 6 then you goto fbl3n and run the report for the GL ACC of stock till period 5. In that go to menu and in that special fields add bseg-matnr and bseg-plant and then sort the report on material/plant level. this will opening balance for period 6.
then run same report till period 6 and this will give closing balance for period 6.
this two report give opening and closing balace for period 6.

Opening and closing periods in FI

Dear FICO experts,
Just a quick question regarding OB52.
We have only 1 company code, can we use the same posting period variant in mulitple line items for the combination ALL account types and a range of periods that are open?
Posting period variant:0000
Account Type: +
Period from: 1
Year:2001
Period to: 12
Year: 2011
Posting period variant:0001 (continue making new posting period variants for all account types as needed)
Account Type: +
Period from: 1
Year:2012
Period to: 12
Year: 2012
OR
Do we just adjust the one line item: example below
Posting period variant:0000
Account Type: +
Period from: 1
Year:2001
Period to: 12
Year: 2011 (keep ajdusting this one line item whenever we need to open new periods for all account types)
Thanks, Deb
Moderator: Company code is assigned to one variant; so the question is irrelevant

Hi,
The Posting Period Variant is just defined once and is not year dependent.
The second option that you maintained is the way how the Posting Periods are maintained.
Against the Same Posting period variant, you can have your open and closed periods and years maintained year after year.
Generally, you keep only 1 period in a year open, the current period, and at the most 2-3 periods in some cases, and that you can easily maintain in Range.
Hope this clarifies..

COPA reporting with open and closed projects

Dear All,
I am designing a COPA solution for an infrastructure providing company using project systems and posting to/settling out of projects on a monthly basis. Projects run for long periods and continually incurr costs and earn revenue untill they are closed. The requirement is to report by common characteristics (say customer group) and separately for open and closed projects. My issue is how to separate the line items of projects where status changed to closed (having posted with the status REL previously), from the open ones, without entering the projects individually in the selections screen.
Any ideas will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Maddy

Dear Satya,
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp2005/helpdata/en/75/ee0bbd55c811d189900000e8322d00/content.htm
An item of a purchase requisition is only regarded as Closed if the requested order quantity has been included in a purchase order.
You can also set an item to Closed manually. <b>This item will then not be taken into account by the materials planning and control system.</b>
You can set the Closed indicator manually at the following points (it can later be cancelled if necessary):
When changing a purchase requisition, on the item detail screen
When creating a purchase order referencing a requisition, on the item detail screen of the PO
You can still create purchase orders by referencing a requisition if this indicator has been set in the requisition concerned.
The indicator can also be set in the case of automatic PO generation from purchase requisitions. On the initial screen of the requisition, you can specify that the requisition is to count as closed as soon as an associated purchase order has been generated, even if the complete quantity requested has not been ordered, for example (Set reqs. to "closed" indicator).
Analyses of Purchase Requisitions:

I thank for the given below thread which has solved the same problem for G/L Account
Re: Report to get the ledger printout with opening balances

Hello Srinujalleda,
Thanks for your precious time.
I tried the referred T-Code
But this report is not showing Opening balance, closing balance detail.
It only gives transactions during the specified posting period and total of it.
Please guide me further in case if I need to give proper input at selection screen or elsewhere.
Client Requires Report in a fashion
Opening Balance as on Date
+ / - Transactions during the period
= Closing Balance as on date
As that of appearing for G/L Account by S_ALR_87012311
Thanks once again & Regards

Opening and Closing balance in FBL3N?

Hi All,
In other ERP systems, if you browse GL Account, i.e. FBL3N in SAP, you get the list of documents within specified period but in other systems you also get the OPENING balance as well as CLOSING balance and the current postings are in between them. Is there any standard report or report painter is to be used for such requirement.
Balances can be checked through FS10N and S_ALR_87012301 etc. but requirement is to get the list of documents with opening and closing balance in beginning and end of the report. The best example is of Cash Journal (Txn FBCJ)
Thanks

Thank you Will,
Yes, actually if other system provide such functionality then SAP should be providing that. I searched within table TSTC for such transaction but unable to get. Accountants requirement is when they execute FBL3N within specified period, the cummulative opening balance and closing balance should be provided with report.
Thanks for your answer!

Nayab
