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.

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]

I got note no. 487381 but i am not able to find the transaction or manu path for the same.
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

Wrong period indicator linked to 2011 posting periods

Hello,
My customer has created new series for 2011 and linked them to 2011 period indicator.
The problem is that the posting period was linked to 2010 period indicator. They've already created several transactions and therefore the period indicator in the posting period window cannot be updated.
Any ideas on how to solve it (except for restoring a backup and retyping the transactions)?
Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Maya

Error while running a query-Input for variable 'Posting Period is invalid

Hi All,
NOTE: This error is only cropping up when I input 12 in the posting period variable selection. If I put in any other value from 1-11 I am not getting any errors. Any ideas why this might be happening?
I am getting the following error when I try and run a query - "Input for variable 'Posting Period (Single entry, mandatory)' is invalid" - On further clicking on this error the message displayed is as follows -
Diagnosis
Variable Posting Period (Single Value Entry, Mandatory) is used as a lower limit (X) and an upper limit () in an interval selection. This limit has the value #.
System Response
Procedure
Enter a different value for variable Posting Period (Single Value Entry, Mandatory). If the value of the other limit is determined by another variable, you can change its value also.
Procedure for System Administration

OK.
Well, if the variable is not used in any interval selection, then I would say "something happened to it".
I would make a copy of the query and run it to check if I get the same problem with period 12.
   -> If not, something is wrong in the original query (you can proceed as below, if changes to original are permitted).
If so, then try removing the variable completely from the query and hardcode restriction to 12.
   -> If problem still persists, I would have to do some thinking.
If problem is gone, then add the variable again. Check.
   -> If problem is back, then the variable "is sick". Only quick thing to do, is to build an identical variable and use that one.
If problem also happens with the new variable, then it's time to share this experience with someone else and consider raising an OSS.
Good luck!

P.S: what fisc year variant are you using?

Posting period issue while deleting a confirmation posted for a limit PO

Hi ..
I am facing an issue whiel deleting a confirmation posted for a limit PO.
Confirmation was posted for a limit PO in SRM and it created a service entry sheet in SAP. If I deleted that confirmation in the same posting period, then it is getting deleted. No issue here.
But if I deleted that confirmation in the next posting period then the reversal document is going to error in process. RZ20 is showing the error "Positng only possible in periods 2012/2 and 2012/3".
Posting date of reversal document is current date only and the backend posting period is 2012/3, but still it is failing with this posting period error.
If I tried to delete a confirmation posted for a normal PO then I could able to delete it even in next posting period by just changing the posting date.
Why this posting occurs while deleting the limit confirmation, even through the posting date is falls within the backenn posting periiod? Is it like, SAP system is trying to delete the service entry sheet in original posting period? Kindly help.
I am in SRM 5.0 (server 5.5) SP12.
Thanks,
Arun

Allowed posting periods: 06 2010 / 05 2010 / 12 2009 (Message no. M8022)

Dear Experts,
I took a old shipment & do a new shipment cost but when I went to go for MIRO posting below error message showing. Fyki, every month we run S_ALR_87003642, MMPV & MMRV properly then why below message showing prior MIRO posting. Is there anything else what we are missing? or How can I resolve this issue?
"QUOTE
Allowed posting periods: 06 2010 / 05 2010 / 12 2009
Message no. M8022
Diagnosis
The posting date is not within one of the allowed posting periods.
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 specified periods is the current period. At the beginning of a new period, your system administrator must change the current period in the material master record using the function "Close period". This has not yet been done.
You have entered the wrong date in the field "Posting date".
Procedure
Check the posting date and correct it if necessary. If your entry is correct, inform your system administrator that the "period closing" procedure has not yet been implemented.
UNQUOTE"
Thanks in advance for your valuable comments.
Best Regards.

Hello ,
MIRO doc can be posted on a particular posting date if:
1. MM Period is open for the posting date .
2.FI period is open for the posting date .
No matter what date the preceding documents had been created on ( PO /MIGO/ML81N ) the posting date in MIRO doc shud fall withing the open MM & FI periods.
check the Fiscal year variant in OBY6 trxn, Basing on that the MM periods will be maintained in OBYC trxn..
the below are some of the Fiscal year periods normally we use
K4--- Is for Calender year( Jan to Dec), that means jan is 01, & Feb 02 etc..
V3--- Is April to march, that means Peroid 01 should be April & 02 is May etc..
V9----Is Oct.- Sept., here period 01 should be Oct & Period 02 should be Nov etc...

Assign posting periods to authorization group in tcode S_ARL_87003642

Hello,
I want to restrict posting periods for some users. Therefore, I have created 2 functions associated to 2 authorization groups.
In transaction S_ARL_87003642, when I try to assign different posting periods to each authorization group to the same company code (Posting Period Variant) it appears a message saying u2018Target key must be different from source keyu2019.
What am I doing wrong? Do you know how can I restrict posting periods for some users?
Thanks and regards
Ana Rita

Dear,
You simply have to define authorisation groups in OB52 and assign this group to F_bkpf_bup in SU01 against user proflie as desired. Take basis help.

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

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

OPEN\CLOSE POSTING PERIOD

Hi everyone,
I'm working on a system with different company code, each company code has a posting period variant.
My question is:
Is there the possibility (by tcode 'OB52') that more users can, at the same time, open\close posting periods related to them posting period variant?
In practice, my customer asks me:
AT THE SAME TIME: - user x (company X) modifies posting periods of PPV '001' and user y (company Y) modifies posting periods of PPV '002'...
Is it possible???
thank you in advance..

Hi Jason,
Probably I may not recommend this. These are most critical activities. We do not the dependency of the tables. Meaning that the table could be linked to many other tables and fields in database. This may end up in data integrity issues.
These are not the activities that we should do on a daily basis. Normally we open and close the period on a monthly basis and open this screen for few minutes or so. I would suggest first user can go and change and then he come back and the second person may change.
Since this a very critical activity, anything wrong would impact all other modules, as the data is moving from all other modules to FI.
Therefore, I would only recommend one by one to change OB52 OR give the authority to a centralized person in order to open and close the periods.
Regards,
Ravi
