Hi,
What all steps are involved in monthend and year end closing procedures.
Thanks
Dev
Hi,
Month end closing Activities
Year end closing Activities:
1. Calculate production work in progress on process orders which are not technically complete.
2. Carry out Assessment cycle for Cost Centers.
3. All month end closing Activities should be carried out.
4. Carry Forward Balances to next year
(With TC: F.16 we can carry forward the balance to next year.
With TC: OBH2 copy the number ranges to next year
Open next year periods by selecting the Posting Period Variant.
then test by posting the transaction in F-02)
Hope this will help.
Regards,
Ferry Lianto

But, there is something I don't understand! About month end closing
Is there any checks that the system execute while changing the period in the transaction of "open and close period"? Or I can close a period in every moment?
And can I re-open - always - a period already closed?
I'd like to know if all the checks we've listed are procedures to ensure the Finance user that everything is included in Accounting, or if there could be technical impact....
Many thanks
Giulia
