Posting period

[former_member71163]

Dear Friends,

Though my current posting period is 01/2009 am not able to release billing document to accounting...system says "posting period is not open"....how come it is?

Dear Saranavakkumar,

My Suggestion: Consult FI-Personnel.

There are Two Appropriate reasons:

1. At Company Code Level: Posting Period for 001/2009 is not open (a commmon error)

2. At Consolidation-Level : The new year carry forward of the document type has not been done for consolidation accounts (Complex issue).

Best Regards,

Amit

Note: For information-sake (based upon Point 1) -

T.Code: OB52 - to open the new posting periods. Select the posting period variant for your company code and change the period for all account type.

Alternatively,

SPRO --> IMG --> Financial Accounting (New) --> Financial Accounting Global Settings (New) --> Ledgers

--> Fiscal Years and Posting Perod

--> Posting Periods --> Open and Close Posting Periods

--> Assign Company Code to

First you go to MMRV / OMSY and check the Current Period and do Changes accordingly.

Else Contact FI / MM Consultant.

Period Closing Depends on Fiscal Year Variant which you are Using. If you are Using K4 Fiscal Year Variant then Input Year 2008 and Period as 12

Fiscal Year Variant K4 is Calender Year Specific ie Jan- Dec. If you are Using V3 Fiscal Year Variant then Input Year 2008 and Period as 09

Fiscal Year Variant V3 is Not Calender Year Specific ie Mar- Apr. Check in OB29 once.

Hello,

Use MMPV and close the posting period 01/2009, if your fiscal year variant to company code is V3.

Take the help of your finance team if it is a real time system.

Hi

Posting period 12/2008 must not have been closed.

Use T-code MMPV to close the period.

Hope this will help You.

Dear Saravanakkumar,

This is due to period 12/2008 might not closed so,

Take help of FI people to close the past period through MMPV transaction and check the current period settings through OB52 transaction.

I hope this will help you,
