there are no postings made in june 2009. Please reply urgently if anybody has faced the same issue.

Hi
As per other experts contact SAP first and do all these things later.
It is possible to reopen closed period. However, it is not advisable to do so because the valuation data of the previous period could get affected.
If you still decided to proceed with this process, please review the documentation of program RMMMINIT (in SE38, enter the program RMMMINIT, select the documentation radio button and click on 'Display').
Please also, have a look at the documentation of the program RMMMINIT in the paragraph 'Precondition'.
Also study note 70545, 369637.
Also note that carry out same in Dev server first test it in all respect and then dare to make same in PRD server.
Also important is SAP will not support you the problems which are may occur due to this.
Best luck
Regs,
Appie

2 posting periods open in OB52

Hi,
I have an issue about posting period. We always keep 2 period open in OB52. For example, currently From period is 9 and To period is 10. I do not know why business keep 2 months open. Then it caused the problem in SD. During Day one of month end (not the first day in calendar), SD batch job (PGI and billing) run and posted in new period which should not. Even though, it is because some variants in SD batch job are wrong. But if the posting period is open only for one month, then we will not have this problem.
Is SAP best practice to keep only one month open in posting period?
Thanks in advance,
DL

Restrict the posting period opening and closing for some users

Dear SAP gurus,
I want to restrict some users to open the posting period and for some users close posting periods. I knew that these can be done through authorization group. Pls explain how to create authorization groups and how to use those? Anybody can help me out?
Regards,
Venkata Reddy

Dear Venkatareddy,
There are two sets of period in OB52. The first set of "From" and "To" is for the authorised group and second set is for the non authorised group. In the "Authorisation Group" (last column) give some 4 charecters name. Say "FICO".
Now ask the basis to attach the object "FICO" for the users who are authorised say user1, user 2 and user3.
Now in the first set of period you can maintain say 1 2008 to 16 2008 and in the second set 1 2008 to 1 2008.
So except user1,2 and 3, all the others can post only in 1 2008. Whereas users 1,2 and3 can post in all the periods of 2008.
Assign points if useful

Venkatesh

Posting Period - Opening

Hi CB,
Thanks for the information.
In our company,we maintain Fiscal year from November to October.
Nov = first month.
*Can you let me know what should i do now to open the period 2009/09*
Thanks

Hi,
Go to MMRV and check the current period. Next go to MMPV close current period by period.
MMRV-display current and previous posting periods
MMPV- open new mm period
Here period means month in general terminology
You can open only one period at a time.
If Financial year is from January to December then, period 01 = January and period 12=December in MM periods.
If Financial year is from April to March then, period 01 = April (this year) and period 12= March (next year) in MM periods.
In your case financial year november to october then Period 01=November(this year) and period 12 = October(next year)
Now goto MMPV and close current period. system automatically Opens the next period the posting period accordingly.

Wrong posting period created and has transactions, how to amend

Hi All,
I have created the posting period in 2005B, forgot to change the Sub-Periods from defaulted Year to Months. So my posting period for 2009 is actually only one period instead of the normal 12 periods in a month.
I have some transactions posted into the period, how can I amend this situation? Hope anyone can assist as soon as possible. Thanks in advance.
Regards,
MH

Hi MH,
I am afraid you cannot do that, because period setting is a very basic setting and the system checks if there are already transactions for that period.
Even if you reverse all transactions the system still considers them as transactions belong to the period.
I suggest that you do it this way:
1. Download the transactions that are already entered
2. Prepare them into templates
3. Go back to the status where database is still empty
4. Correct the period settings
5. Upload back the transactions to the database.
Cheers,
Marini

Unplanned Depeciation showing in wrong posting period

Hi Gurus
i want to post unplanned depreciation for one asset as on 31.12.2009. i did it in abaa for posting period 9 (Dec).
When i see this unplan dep in aw01n it is showing in posting period 10 as unplan depreciation.
Unable to know why it is coming in posting period 10 and not in 9
I tried same thing in development client it is showing properly in period 9.
Please help me in resolving this issue
Edited by: Shekhar Sonar on Jan 20, 2010 12:58 PM

Hi Paul
Fiscal year is April to March . that is why i had given period 9 while executing unplanned depreciation. Problem is it is showing in period 10 and not in 9.

Documents posted wrong posting periods

hi,
we are using sap 4.7e version.our fiscal year is april to march.we posted 7 billing documents on 01.03.2007 .but 6 accounting documents posted to 13 th period.one document posted to 12 th period. we are unable to identify the problem how it happend .all posting and document dates are on 01.03.2007. could any body give solution to this probelm.

Hi Naga,
Normally the system always takes the posting period based on posting date.
You can enter in the special periods only by actually selecting the posting date of last posting period and manually selecting the posting period as the special period of 13-16.
There could be two possibilities for the issues:
Someone must have manually changed the posting period in billing document header (field VBRK-POPER) to 13 while the posting date is 1.3.07.
OR
Based on certain parameters, a user exit is triggered to change the posting period to a special period 13.
You can reach me at [email protected]

Posting period 002 2011 is not open (MRKO)

Dear experts,
I process Vendor consignment:
1. Goods receipt - 501K
2. Transfer posting - 411K
3. MRKO
On MRKO, I choose Document date and Posting date is: 17.12.2010
Open period in MM: 01/2011 (12/2010)
Now is 02/2011 but I want to post in 17.12.2010
I get this error:
Posting period 002 2011 is not open
Message no. F5201
Diagnosis
Period 002 of fiscal year 2011 is not open for posting for the variant of posting period 2650.
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 2650 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 2650 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.
Plz help!

Hi,
If you are sure Open period in MM: 01/2011 (12/2010) & 02/2011 not opened( can be cross checked in MMRV)
As you want post in 12/2010,then use t.code: OB52 and open the 12, 2010 period in Account Types A, K, D,M, S and specially Account Type u201C+u201D which stands for valid for all accounts type and save.

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
Raju

OB52 - open and close posting period

Hi
I want to know that what is the meaning of + while populating the posting period variant with data for posting periods and also what will be the effect if we donot put the same. Instead that we only put the entry for A D K M S.

Hi Srikanth
Thanks for the quick response.
But does your answer mean that if we put only + and no other entries for A D K M S then all a/cs will have the same posting periods open for them.
Also how to keep two different posting periods open for open for two different assets (A).

T.code for opening of posting periods

Hi Can any body give me the T code of posting periods open thorugh easy access menu ? BR..AJ

Hi,
You can change the functionality of OB52 making it possible to do the changes in production directly. Read note 77430 to do so... The relevant object is V_T001B.
Regarding your later question, it does not matter what date is now in your developement system; whatever data you will put there, it will be transported to the target system.
