Back Dated Entries

[Former Member]

Dear All,

we need to enter the back dated Sales orders, create deliveries , issue goods, & invoice them, all in the previous dates. What we checked is everything is going fine but for only the posting to FI, is not happening. They want the posting also to happen in the previous date.

I want someone to please help me regarding this. As its very urgent.

Thanks & Regards!!

If you want to post document to previous period, you need to reopen the old period back using MMPV.

Else you can post old document into the current period as the posting date is already over in your current period.

Hi,

You have to open the FI posting period in OB52. As this is crucial, please discuss with your FI consultant ,and ask him to do it. Then you should be able to post the documents for which the posting period is open.

Hi,

Thanks for the quick reply as usual.

The period is in the current itself. i.e. march. What they want is to just post on the previous date. For example on 1st march.

PLease guide me

Thanks & Regards!!

Hi Navneeth,

There is a problem with schedule line in the sale order now.

While creating the sales order, i changed the requested delivery date to previous date, say 01.03.2008,

but the system is proposing the delivery date for current date that is todays date. 12.03.2008.

Waiting for the reply

Thanks & Regards!!

Hi Rish,

You cannot have a confirmed schedule line date in the past. This date refers to teh delivery date and it is not meaningful to create a sales order today and give the RDD as yesterday. So past date should not be given for RDD. The system behaviour in this aspect is correct.

Pls lemme know if you need some more information
