Special Period for every quarter

Hi,
My client wish to have special periods for every quarter.
For Example:
I posted document number 1 to 100 for 1st quarter. Now document number for 2nd quarter should start from document number 151.
The remaining document number 101 to 150 must be for any adjustments made in 2nd quarter regarding 1st quarter on the basis of auditor's requirement.
Is it possible ?

No.
It is not possible
You cannot have document number ranges per quarter
You can have document number ranges per company code and fiscal year.
Regards,
Ravi

First, that question is really not clearly asked. Second how could it be urgent ? You even did not tell us your Oracle version, did not show any tables descr, output sample nor any effort on your side to work on.

Special period for commitement

hello,
we want to size prices for a third period 2006 in the transaction kp26.
we cant and we have the following message:
Period 13 is not allowed for the planning period.
I already customize 12 normal periods and 1 special in ob29 and for the analytical perimeter.
for real costs i have 13 periods but still 12 for commitment.
could you help me?
thank you

You can do planning only in the normal periods as you have defined in the T/code:ob29.You cant do planning in the special period.But in special periods you can post the actuals.[The year end adjustment entries etc are all done in the special period.].
The concept of planning itself is to have a projected figure for comparison and control.you have determined [ in ob 29] that your working calender will have 12 periods;as such you can plan for these periods only.
Special period is not a part/ a period of the fiscal year.It is the area in which your auditors,etc can work and post the adjustment entries.Please note that the entries in the special period itself should pertain to these [ normal ]12 periods.In other words you can not construe the special period as an extended fiscal year.
If you want to post/plan for the 13 th period,change your fiscal year variant to have 13 normal periods.Also note that you can have only one fiscal year variant for a company code.
Hope this will help you.

Ramesh

CONCATENATE COMM_STRUCTURE-FISCPER(4) '012' INTO RESULT.
ELSE.
RESULT = COMM_STRUCTURE-FISCPER.
ENDIF.

How to derive Current week and Number of Weeks for present quarter.

Hi,
Currently we are developing a report on Actuals and Planned sales. We have two different data targets to hold these information.
CRM team will provide targets for BP monthly in CRM table, from where we are extracting the data into BW and report exection frequency is Daily.
Report Output format:-
1) Target1St Month in the quarter, Target2nd Month in the quarter, Target3rd Month in the quarter, Target Quarter, Month To date (Taget for Current month - Sales till today),
Let us assume we are Q1 and user executing this report on end of March Target1 = Jan, Target2 = Feb, Target 3 = March and Quarter target = Target1 + Target2 + Target 3.
We can achieve this by offset variables.
But if users are exectuing this report Apr (Q2) then Target1 = Apr target , target2 and target3 =0
Becoz we are in Q2 and first month of the quarter. If users are executing this report in May target1 should be Apr target and Target 2 = May target and Target3rd month should be Zero.
2) We have one keyfigure called as Quarter Phased Target = (Quarter target/ No of weeks in current quarter)* current week; For this we have to get No of weeks in every quarter and Curren week (when the reports get executed).
Let us assume we are executing this report on 25th jan and target for that month = 122units then Quarter phased target = [(122 + 0 (For Feb)+ 0 (For Mar) )/ 13] X4
4 is becoz we are in 4th in that quarter,
13 is becoz no of weeks in that quarter.
0 (For Feb) - Becoz we are in Jan only..
Hence please let me know how to get No of weeks in Current quarter and Current week for every quarter..
All the helpful answers will be awarded with full points.
Regards,
suresh

hi,
For the first querry.
the problem is because u are using calmonth.
Instead of using cal month use fiscal period.
When u use fiscal period the data will be shown automatically for the Previous months using offsets.
u have to take taht in ur transformation and should map it to constant value depending on the fiscal periods of ur compnay?
march- apr,jan-dec etc.
for teh second querry there would be some charecteristic which might give data in weeks as well just check that and if availabe u can use it.
am not too sure abt it.

FI-AA Normal and Special Periods

hi,
In Asset Accounting there are normal and special periods for a fiscal year,why do we use the special periods?
Vinay

The fiscal year version defines the number and relation to the calendar of the depreciation periods in the fiscal year in Asset Accounting. Asset Accounting generally uses the same fiscal year version as Financial Accounting (general ledger). In this case, the depreciation periods of Asset Accounting correspond to the posting periods of Financial Accounting (without special periods).
Special period is used to enter the transactions which occur after the end of financial year but related to that financial year & also for making closing entries.
Special period is used as a control method for making closing enties by restricting through authorization.
Warm Regards

Special periods in reporting

Hello friends,
Let me ask, maybe you'll have the idea how to implement the functionality I need. I use 16 periods in my BW implementation (12 months and 4 special periods). When running the report, user can put the period as a selection. It means that user puts "5" to see may data etc. But when user puts the special period, for example "14", he/her should see actually periods 12-14, as special periods are assigned to December in my firm.
Any help is appreciated.
Kooyot

Some thoughts:
For periods from 12 and beyond ( to cover all the special perids), make a separate variable filled by an exit. The exit should apply the logic : if the period is >12, then read the data from 12 onwards untill the value entered , for example, if the value entered is 13, the variable should read 12 & 13 and the data to be displayed accordingly.
With the variable mentioned above, create a restricted key figure and use the same in the query.

Running GR55 reports for special periods

When running GR55 reports, the selection field for "Period" only lists periods 1 to 12. We are using the standard K4 FI year variant.
Can someone tell me how to get the 4 special periods displayed for selection?
Thank you,
Hakiza

The drop down in the "To" field only lists periods 001 to 012, but it lets you manually enter other periods such as 14 or 16.
So you are not limited by the periods displayed in the drop down box.
I hope this solves your problem. Thanks,
Hakiza

Special Prices for "SALE" period.

Dear SD pricing experts,
We seek a suggestion for a pretty common scenario wherein when we have a SALE period -- by definition it could mean special prices for SOME of the regular items -- maybe old arrivals / improper condition of the item hence devalued but still perfectly usable, for a specific period. However for the same period, some items (quantities) of the same, which are in brand new condition, would be available for sale at the regular price.
How can one handle this in the SAP SD pricing or related. This should be such that only the right material goes at the right price and not the GOOD material at the SALE price.
Please note there is no separate identification' of the "devalued" items. e.g. cloth items, or cosmetic items which have lost their packaging and likewise.
Look forward to a valuable solution to this.
Regards,
Tariq

Hi,
It is understood that you want to give special prices for certain items. The special prices can be given through discount condition K007.
1.     Create a condition table that includes u2018Order reasonu2019 as one of the fields. Say, the condition table includes Sales organization, Distribution channel, Division and Order reason. Say, the condition table is 650.
2.     Create an access sequence Z001 u2013 Discount for SALE period; this access sequence has the condition table 650.
3.     Enter this access sequence in condition type K007.
4.     Create order reason as 101-Sale period dis A, 102-Sale period dis B, 103-Sale period dis C [Menu path: Spro >> SD >>Sales >> Sales docu header >> Define order reason]
5.     Maintain condition record for K007 in VK11. Maintain different discounts for different order reason.
6.     Create a sales order. If the material is eligible for discount, select the order reason [eg; 101]. The respective discount will be reflected.
7.     The condition record is controlled by the u2018from- tou2019 validity period.
8.     If you need to reflect the discounted price in the price PR00 itself, assign this access sequence in the condition type PR00 and maintain different prices for different order reason. You will get PR00 value directly.
Hope this information will be useful to you.

Hi,
How many records you want import?
If more than thousand records, you need to split the records into 1000 records to import correctly.

KEU5: Allocating special period costs for receivers in 12th period only

Dear All,
Every year I'm facing a problem with allocating costs of special periods (13-16) to receivers that were posted in 12th period.
By senders I mean cost centers.
By receivers I mean sales documents from december (F-type documents)
I don't want to use cumulative allocation method since it will use receivers from all months.
Best regards,
Mark

Dear Mark,
What is the problem that you are facing... Can you elaborate more...

'periods' show for every day in calendar??

I got Outlook 2007 and successfully synced my calendar. However, on my iPhone there is now a 'period' on every day, even when there is nothing scheduled for that day. I'm using Vista Home Premium and the calendar looks fine on my pc. Any ideas how to remove all the 'period(s)' from my iPhone calendar??

The problem is with recurring dates. On your calendar (iPhone)click the left arrow (you can hold it down) and find the 1st date that does not have a dot (it could be many years in the past, mine was back on 2003). Then, edit the end date to be the same as the start date (the display shows the end date before the start date). Hope this helps

Using fiscal period and Fiscal quarter reporting seemlessly in a BI Query

Hi,
We have a very specific issue. Reporting the Fiscal Period( in our
case we have 53 fiscal periods) and Fiscal Quarter( we have 4 quarters)
in the same query seamlessly as we would have done using Calander Month
and Calander quarter in other reports that uses SAP delivered standard
time dimensions.
However unlike the Calander time dimension (SAP provided all
possible...0CALDAY, 0CALWEEK, 0CALMONTH, 0CALQUARTER, 0CALYEAR) where you have all of these inside your info provider, you can get
aggregation on week, month, quarter etc in your query seamlessly, The Fiscal Year/Period offers a problem in doing report seamlessly.
When we delve into Fiscal realm, SAP only provided with 0FISCVARNT,
0FISCPER, 0FISCYEAR and a special period 0FISCPER3. It doesn't provide
anything like 0FISCQUARTER etc and rightly so, because you can have
only one 0FISCVARNT in the Time dimension and can have related periods
(0FISCPER) only for a Row of data in your infocube. For example if you need to model as per the Fiscalweek, you can create a custom Fiscal year variant (Say z1) and can configure to have only 53 periods (Mapped to 0FISCPER) representing
53 Fiscal WEEK. Similarly for mapping Fiscal Quarter you can create
another fiscal year variant (Say Z2) and have only 4 periods (mapped to
0FISCPER also in this case) to represent the 4 Fiscal Quarter. However
the issue is that for one record you can only map either of those and
not both since you can only have one Fiscal year variant in one row of
data in the info provider.
For example
If I have two rows OF DATA coming from different sources (One FOR
Fiscal Week and another for Fiscal Quarter) I can have the following in
my info provider.
1> Example data in Fiscal
Char1 Char2 0CALDAY 0FISCVARNT 0FISCPER Quantity
X ...... y .....10/22/07 ....Z1 .... 432007 .......10
X ....... Y .....10/22/07 ....Z2 .... Q32007 .......20
The issue is how do I report the Quantity in a query in Quarter Q3 as
(10 + 20 = 30) since both the rows corresponds to FISCAL Q32007?
(Please note that Fiscal week 432007(For VARIANT Z1 ) actually is
Fiscal Quarter Q32007( For Fiscal Variant Z2) as per our
configuration of Fiscal Year Variant configuration Z1 and Z2)
The same is very simple when I have infoprovider with CALENDAR Time
dimensions , for example if we dont have any fiscal reporting
requirement and just report on calendar time dimension the record in
the info provider would look like the following ( example)
2> Example Data in CALENDAR DIMENSION
Char1 Char2 0CALDAY 0CALWEEK 0CALQUARTER Quantity
X ........ y .......10/22/07 .......432007 .......Q32007 .......10
X ........Y .......10/22/07 ....... 442007 .......Q32007 .......20
Here we can use both 0CALQUARTER and get the data aggregated on the
quarter level in addition to the 0CALWEEK.
To solve this issue, One option that we are thinking of Using 0CALQUARTER to represent the
Fiscal Quarter and use Update rule to populate this one. For example
THE example 1 can be as follows.
1A> Example of using 0CALQUARTER along with 0FISCVARNT and 0FISCPER
Char1 Char2 0CALDAY 0FISCVARNT 0FISCPER 0CALQUARTERE Quantity
X .......y .......10/22/07 ..............Z1 .......432007 .......Q32007 ..............10
X .......Y .......10/22/07 ..............Z2 .......Q32007 .......Q32007 ..............20
In this case we would populate the 0CALQUARTER by the actual Fiscal
Quarter and then can use both as per example 2 above. But this is not a
smooth option since we have various other info providers to join and
report based on solely Fiscal Quarter etc
I am certain that this issue have already been solved by somebody as this bound to happen in any finance application.
Would appreciate if we can get some light on this regarding the data modelling, reporting etc.
Thanks
Arun G.

You have yourself suggested a solution, which is fine,
Other option is to have a new characteristic Fiscal Qtr in all the infoproviders ans update the same using a routine in the updaterule depending on the fiscal year variant.
for eg. for transaction with variant Z1 in one case you can say if fiscal week 01 between 01 to 13 the Fiscal Qtr should be update with1 and if it is between 14 to 26 then update fiscal qtr with 2 and so on.
For other Variants Z2 you write a different login in the routine ans so on.
so for all the data irrespective of the variant you will have the qtr as either 1 or 2 or 3 or 4 and you can report on this fiscal qtr.
assign points if it helps.
