posting Period problem

[Former Member]

Dear All,

While Creating stock ,so as to carry on delivery process, by using MB1C, an error is coming:

Posting only possible in periods 2008/11 and 2008/10 in company code XYZ

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.

After doing MMRV, the position is:

Current period: 11/2008.

Previous period: 10/2008

Last period in previous year:12/2007.

Pls tell me how to rectify the error?

Thanks in advance.

Dear Mr. Mehta,

I could fix the posting period error, but due to reassigning plant there was another error:

Combination of plant MANP and material type Finished product does not exist

Message no. M3375

Diagnosis

You have entered a combination of material type and valuation area for the plant that is not defined in the system.

System Response

An entry made up of this combination is normally created automatically for all valuation areas in table T134M if you execute the function Edit material type in Customizing for the corresponding material type and then save your data.

The absence of an entry can be due to you setting up and assigning an additional plant to a company code. Although the system then determines the respective company code automatically, it does not create an entry in table T134M for the existing material types in this case.

Procedure

Contact your system administrator so that the corresponding combination can be entered in table T134M.

Iam unable to trace what has happened.

Thanks

Dear Friend,

Use the transaction code OMS2 then select FERT

Then click on the quantity and value update.

Select your plant or valuation area and put Tick Marks in Value update and Quantity update

This will definitely reslove your problem

Hello,

Check the posting period variant assigned to your company code. If it is V3, the posting period should be 08/2008 and for K4 it should be 11/2008. check the same in SPRO --> Financial accounting --. Global settings --> Company code. See the details.

Dear Friend,

If you are using period starting from April 2008, then correct Posting Period for Novembber 2008 is 09/2008.

But if seems in your case some has by mistake opened 11/2008. That means 09/2008 is closed & you cannot to material movement entries in a closed period.

You can open closed MM periods, but be really careful next because even SAP does recommend opening closed MM periods.

Anywasy follow this:

T-Code: MMPI - from Tool Bar select - System - User Profile - Own Data - In parameter Tab Enter "MMPI_READ_NOTE" in parameter Field

Then, Remove assignment of Plants from Company Code (In SPRO).

Now use T-Code OMSY & Set the required Period.

Re-assign Plants to Company Code & Check whether correct preriod is open thru T-Code - MMRV

Now use T-code - OMWD to Assign Valuation grouping code to Valuation area because the earlier data gets deleted when assignment of Plants was removed.

Hope this solves your problem...
