Settlement in a closed period

Hi,
I've got internal orders (or projects) which have costs but were not settled in their previous periods/fiscal year (e.g. FY 2006). These periods are now closed, and the organization is not willing to open the periods. The company wants to settle these projects in the curent FY. Is this feasible?
Regards,
Mahlomola

Hi,
Confirm how the fiscal year has been defined. Normally 12 posting periods with 4 special periods will be there. If you have been provided with special periods, you can post the same entry and the document will be posted in the last working day of
the last period during the special period so that you can account in the same FY.

Open and Closed periods

Dear FI experts,
For FISL, can I say that a closed period can be modified and closed again?
For example, periods 1-6 have been closed.
Correction or adjustment need to be done in period 2. Period 3-6 balances are affected. So, how is the adjustment applied to the 6 periods? In this case, a closed period becomes opened again? Is such a scenario possible?
Thanks
Adette

It is within the table I believe (I'm not a DBA or a developer) since I created a BLOB column and then used the file browse feature to allow users to attach a resume to the table in order to be able to perform a search of the attached documents.
I'm just having a hard time pointing the link in the search results report to the document in the blob column.
The information on that page is great if you're trying to create a link to the document on the initial report.
But I created a query using Oracle Text to run a report that does a boolean search of the attached word documents in the table.
When it displays the search results, it doesn't create a link to the document and I can't figure out how to do it.
Here's a link the the instructions I used to create the initial search report with Oracle Text, mind you I only created the index and query, I didn't add in all the link data since they're using documents on websites and I'm using documents in a table.
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/pdf/apex_text_application_v1.6.pdf
If you can help me with this I'd really appreciate it.
Thanks again.

Effects of reopening closed periods in Asset Accounting.

Hi SAP Gurus,
My client wants to open the closed periods in Asset accounting. I have used T Code OAAQ and changed the last closed period.
I would like to know what are the effects of opening the closed periods.
Will it effect the already posted depriciation and what further steps should I take after the entries are passed.
Even after I opened the period both in FI and AA it still is giving me a message that I cannot post to this year.
Can you kindly suggest.
Thanks in advance,
Hari

If you post any entries to the asset , the depreciation will change in asset accounting and will not match with the general ledger unless depreciation posting run is executed.
However, since you have already executed depreciation posting, AFAB selecting repeat run in the last period or special period if your company code have special periods.
Caution: It will change the P&L and Balance sheet balances.
Please check the Post Capitalization Option (ABNAN) for asset values missed in the past for capitalization

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..

SAPFICO

Opening/closing periods in DEV - good procedure

What's the best way to deal with opening or closing periods in a DEV system? This is a sandpit client in DEV that is normally closed to changes. Should I unlock the client and have the change trigger the creation of a transport, or not bother about forcing the creation of a transport, as it's not going anywhere?

Hey,
It is surprising that your Dev system is closed to changes. So how do you usually use it if you were to test your development prior to moving it to Q. Do you use the Original dev and copy the Transports to the sandpit?
Regardless.. based on your information.. have your Sandpit client unlocked...Unless there is a wierd but valid reason why it has been locked.. BASIS acts strange at times. CTS should be disabled as well. however it should not pose any issues if the transports hang around.. moroever you would not need to log your changes as they serve the purpose. Hope this helps

How to open already closed period in MM

Hello GURU
I have heard its porrible to open alrady closed period in MM in MMPI
But I would like to know your opinion and how exactyl this can be done?we are in 04 period now and user wnats to open period 01
thanks in advance
hana

Hello Hana,
It is possible to reopen a previously closed period. However, it isn't
advisable to do because the valuation data of the previous period could
get affected. If you decide to proceed with the process, please review
the documentation of program RMMMINIT (To see this documentation, please
do the following: SE38, RMMMINIT, and select the documentation button
and display).
Take into account the documentation of the program RMMMINIT:
"Caution
Be careful if the period used for initialization precedes the current
period in the control record for the company code since this can result
in an inconsistency between goods movements and material master segments
This is because the stock information in the material master segments is
assigned to the new current period in this case."
Please also review the note 70545 regarding the initialization
process. Although this note is NOT valid for your release, it provides
good information on the use of initialization for correction purposes.
Additionally, please review the note 369637 in this regard as well.
PLEASE FIRST PERFORM THIS IN A TEST/DEVELOPMENT SYSTEM PRIOR TO MOVING
TO PRODUCTION AS YOUR VALUATION DATA FROM PREVIOUS PERIOD WILL BE
AFFECTED. If you are satisfied with the results, then you can move it
to production.
Also see the SAP On-line documentation (http://help.sap.com):
Logistics - General (LO)
-> Logistics Basic Data (LO-MD)
-> Material Master (LO-MD-MM)
-> Period closing
In addition, as you know, please check the following note as well:
487381 - RMMMINIT: Protection against unintentionial execution
I hope this information helps you.

Rolling Back Closed Period

Folks,
I'm trying to post the GR thru MIGO for the scheduling agreements and I'm getting this error:
"Posting only possible in periods 2009/04 and 2009/03 in company code____"
I'm trying to post in the current month " Jan 2009".
I checked OMSY and current period is 042009.
I know we can close the periods thru MMPV/MMPI but in this case these periods are already closed and current open period is only two months after (042009).
Is there any way we can roll back to the closes periods and posting can be done in the existing period??
We are in our dev environment but any heads up of this would be greatly appreciated!!
Thanks for your help in advance,
Cheers,
Dhaval

Hey there,
Thanks for the heads up. However I think that MMRV will only allow posting in the previous closed period which in this case would be 032009.
But I'm not sure if this will help me if I would want to post in 012009 or 022009.
I'd appreciate if you could shed some more light on this.
cheers.
Dhaval

MM Closing Period(Urgent)

Dear Experts,
In our development server,By mistake we have closed periods till november.We want to open and try to run in the current period,how to do that???
Plz do reply me...
Thanks and Regards
MK

hi Mk
for opening the already closed period & if we want to reopen & post it in previous period.use MMRV
When you are opening Aug'2007 then the period Jul'2007 is closed.
You have the option of posting in the Jul'2007 by setting the posting allowed in the pervious period in MMRV transaction.
But u will not able to post for period June'2006 , once you open August'2007 period. That is the reason why it is always mentioned that Posting to previous to previos period is not possible.
Hope it answers your Prob.
Please reward points if u are satisfied with the answer

Open an already closed period

Is it possible to open an already closed posting period? If yes, how? And is it recommended to open any closed period?
Thanks in Advance

Hello,
There are two different places where the period is closed in SAP.
a. FI period
Use transaction OB52.
b. MM period - MMPI
The help extract for the same is given below for your reference:
Short text
Initialize Period for Material Master Records
Description
This program must be viewed in conjunction with the period closing program (RMMMPERI). It does the following:
Sets the current period
However, do not use this program to set the new period at the end of a period, and use it only in addition to the period closing program, never instead of it.
Creates or updates the control record
Makes it possible to create material master records if you are initializing a company code for the first time
However, to initialize company codes, you are recommended using the IMG activity Maintain company codes for materials management instead of this program.
You can also use this program to correct data inconsistencies, for example, due to user errors when running the period closing program, or that occur as a result of skipping several periods in a test system. However, first make sure you understand why the inconsistency arose and then decide whether running this program is the correct way of resolving it.
Caution
Be careful if the period used for initialization precedes the current period in the control record for the company code since this can result in an inconsistency between goods movements and material master segments. This is because the stock information in the material master segments is assigned to the new current period in this case (see the following example).
Example
Current period 02
Opening stock balance 0 pieces
Goods receipt 10 pieces
Period used for initialization 01
According to the material master segment, there are 10 pieces in stock in period 01, although 10 pieces were posted to stock in period 02 according to the goods movement document.

Closing Period Authorization Change Non GL Documents

Version: SAP 2007 PL15
Description of requirements: A new authorization or period setting that would allow users to modify non-journal affecting attributes of a document like the due-date from a PO or the remarks field in a sales order after the period is set as a closing period without granting all users authorization to post within the closing period.
Valid as of: As soon as possible
Business needs: Many businesses have large PO's with multiple lines having different delivery dates which are used in MRP. The company does not want to allow these users to create new documents but as the due-dates get adjusted by the vendor the PO needs to be updated and when the PO is created in the closing period they are currently being blocked.
Examples: The customer creates a large POin January with 12 lines each line delivering on the 1st of the next month. on Feb. 1st the January period is set to closing period and all appropriate financial statements are genertaed. The vendor then calls and informs the purchasing employee that their March shipment will be late, sine that shipment contains goods that are used in production the estimated Duedate needs to be updated so MRP will not suggest incorrect stock levels ofother items or mistakenly suggest goods can be ready when they could not be. If this happens multiple times per day to several sales people then the individuals with modification authorization in the closing period would become enundated with requests.
Current Workaround: assign users authorization to closing periods which is not a sufficient long term work around, one clients books have already been corrupted by user error's in the purchasing and sales departments.
Proposed solution: A new Authorization that would allow modifications to documents that do not affect journal entries within the closing period. or the locked except sales period.
This has already impacted 2 customers strongly, Ioline systems and Dri-Eaz Inc.
Submitted By Dan Love for Omega Group

Hi Greig,
Period Closing means users who have period closing authorization can post all types of transactions and documents. So if you have authorization to do this, you will still be able to post transactions.

Can SAP run the depreciation for closed Period and posting to diff month?

My client forgot to run the depreciation for Jan 2011, and now the Jan period has been closed and report also done.
My solution was to re-open the Jan and does the depreciation, once completed reclassify Jan depreciation posting to Feb 2011 manually.
I am just wandering whether SAP can handle this different way.
Can SAP performs Jan (Closed Period) depreciation and post to Feb period automatically or any other suggestions?
Cheers

Hi
Yes, you can do that
Follow this thread... Unable to post depreciation- Error AA730
Using ABF1, you can do it
