Hi,

I am having the same issue.

Normally, if we post to previous period and the period is closed in OB52, the system will have


1) a warning message: Period "01" adjusted in line with posting date "15.03.2014"

2) then error message: Posting period 012 2015 is not open.

But currently, when post to closed fiscal period, we only received the 1st warning message, error message do not appear after that and able to post to the closed period.

Is there any way to bypass the error message and allow the system to post?

Chew

Hi Kim,

Please check if your special periods are open and system is trying to post in the special periods.

Hi Ravi,

No, the special period is not open as only 1 period is opened at this time which is the current period.

Hi Ravi,

Below is our OB52 screen shot. Referring to 0100, only period 1,2016 is opened.

We tested to post to 15.03.2012, which is actually period 3,2013. System prompt a warning message and we are able to post.

Result of posting.

Kindly advice.

Thanks.

Hello Chew,

I believe this has to do with your fiscal year variant configuration. Check the fiscal year variant assigned to your company code.

Please take a screenshot of you fiscal year variant for the year 2012. That will help us explain the system behavior here.

I am not jumping into a conclusion, but just trying to route the discussion towards the fiscal year variant side.

Hi,

Not missed any thing setting for the warning message -

we are in Fiscal year 2014 but you are posting in 2013 Fiscal year

Example - today dt : 17.04.2014  posting but given document date 31.03.2014 and posting date 31.03.2014, that's what system showing warning message ,

if you don't want to see this warning message - then go OB52 and close Previous posting Fiscal year 2013 ,

then system will give Error message -

Thanking you

Hi Mahesh,

We have checked the OB52 in advance, all previous period have been closed.

Due to some management fiscal year change, the period have been + 2 years in SAP.

Example :

31.03.2014 = Fiscal Year 12/2015 in my company

01.04.2014 = Fiscal Year 01/2016 in my company

Hi Abi Chin,

Have your checked the special periods?
I think its still open and thus you are able to post by entering a date of from your last fical year's last  period.
"Posting takes place in previous fical year" meassage is encountered when your are doing an adjustment posting in special periods.
I am pretty sure you wont be able to do posting if you use any othe date than of mar'13( try with feb'13)
Please test it once and revert.

Hi Abi

Are you checking the OB52 settings for the same company code you are posting for?? If yes, could you please share that screenshot as well??

Also, this is a warning, press enter and see if it allows you to post. May be you would get the error message later??

Hi Svamsi,

I don't think it should be control with customization, it should be control by standard SAP.

Please correct me if I'm wrong on it.
