goods issue in previous date

[Former Member]

Dear Experts,

I have a problem with previous period postings.

We are entering in to production server. Present date is : 01.04.2009.

Now the open period is 10th of 2008 (January).

But we are starting the transactions from 01.01.2009 (3rd quarter of 2008)

when we issue material against to sales order, system not allowing to issue, and throwing an error "material can not be issued in the past date".

how to solve this problem.

can any body help me in this.

regards

Anand.M

I dont know what you mean by these statements

Most propably your MM period would have been closed (MMPV transactions)

To open the closed MM period can be done MMPI

But extremely risky and not advisable production server

Check with SAP

Normally today 01.04.2009 you close the period of march 2009 thro MMPV and still will be able to perform backdated goods issue for march only

SAP standards allow one monthof closed period as grace time
