back dated Sales Order - error

[Former Member]

Dear SAP Gurus,

I am testing the back dated Sales Order

I am using two diff items with two diff plants.

Stages tried

1. Sales Order is Ready

2. 2nd Item is blocked

3. For 10 item made delivery

4. Pick for 1o item

5. PGI for 10 item

Now I am getting the following error

Posting only possible in periods 2007/10 and 2007/09 in company code 1000

Message no. M7053

Diagnosis

The posting date entered is not within one of the permitted posting periods (current period/previous period).

This can be due to one of two reasons:

The correct current period has not been set in the system.

For the system, the first of the entered periods is the current period. At the beginning of a new period, your systems administrator must change the current period in the material master record, using the function "Shift periods". This has not yet been done.

You have entered a wrong date in the field "Posting date".

Procedure

Check the posting date and correct it if necessary. If your input is correct, inform your systems administrator that the "period shifting" (period-end closing) process has not yet been completed. Copied from M8022

Kindly give me solution, I would like to change the posting periods as well want to close sales order

Hi Gurus

I have chked financial period is open, also confirmed with FICO Consultant

Now I would like to do PGI in the month of Feb/March. 2007. How do I go ahead because still I am getting the same year.

Sales Doc Information [This is old Order]

PO Date 17.11.2007

Delivery Date 30.03.2008

Pricing Date 30.03.2008

While creating outbound Delivery I am getting the following error

Selection date 30.03.2008 while creating outbound delivery

"No delivery-relevant items in order SPR071227S, order type OR25

Message no. VL455

Diagnosis

The sales order you want to deliver, sales order SPR071227S with order type OR25, either contains no delivery-relevant items or its delivery-relevant items have already been delivered."

But if I enter the current date 05.05.2008 then system will generate Delivery Doc no.

If I want backdated Delivery can it is possible, if yes please let me know...

Hi,

At any point of time, Standard SAP allows posting only in two months - Current as well as the previous month. You therefore need to change the posting date in your document to one these dates and then proceed.

Hope this clarifies the solution to your problem.

hi,

Goto MMPV , enter your company code and date close the previous period.

Accounting period starts Ex : Mar to April , In this case March will considered as month '01' and so on.

In your case , it seems previous period is not closed.

Try this .

You cannot do the goods movement posting in previous periods.
