i am trying to use we19 to do stanadard inbound process for idoc mbgm

the order date on po is 5/1/2003

when i try the standard inbound process i get

posting only possible in periods 2004/08 and 2004/07

i have tried mmpv to close a period but i do not think this is the problem

does my problem have to do with the order date on po and the posting period????????????

can anyone please explain or point me to a place that explains what the posting date is looking at???

how can i match these up and get rid of the error?????????????????????????????????????

Hi Janice,

the order date on the PO itself should not matter. Important are the posting date and document date of your document you try to create. For IDOC MBGMCR02 this should be the fields

E1BP2017_GM_HEAD01-PSTNG_DATE

E1BP2017_GM_HEAD01-DOC_DATE

Instead of trying to change the open posting periods I would suggest to simple change the value of these 2 fields to a value that lies within the open periods in transaction WE19 itself.

Hi,

ask your MM consultant to help you with MMPV

for your tests just use dates in

PSTNG_DATE

DOC_DATE

fomr this perdiod : 2004/08 and 2004/07

Hi Janice,

check if your company code uses the calendar year as the fiscal year. If not, July and August may not be equal to your posting periods 7 and 8. You can do that the following way:

1. In your backend system start the IMG (transaction SPRO)

2. Go to <i>Financial Accounting -> Financial Accounting Global Settings ->Fiscal Year -> Assign Company Code to a Fiscal Year Variant</i>

3. Check which fiscal year variant is assigned to your company code

4. In the IMG go to <i>Financial Accounting -> Financial Accounting Global Settings ->Fiscal Year -> Maintain Fiscal Year Variant</i>

5. Check the fiscal year variant assigned to your company code. If it has the flag <i>Calendar yr</i> checked, your fiscal year is equal to the calendar year. If not, drill down to the periods to find out which actual dates belong to the periods you are allowed to post to.

Regards,

Claus
