Posting period in Billing document

[Former Member]

Hi,

There is one billing document which is created on couple of months back but was not released. Now when we are trying to releasing to accounting, system is checking the period and hence that is closed its throwing the error. We tried to change the date billing date to todays date. But once we save the document and display the doc, its taking the old date only, so its not allowing to change the posting date. FI guys wont open the previous period.. so whats the solution and how do we need to proceed.

As long as an accounting document has not been generated for a billing document, system will allow you to change the billing date and the changed date will get stored in VBRK.  In your case, since it is not happening, it could be due to some user exit.  Try with another document with different customer.

System was deriving this date from OBD... We changed the date in OBD and were able to create acc doc... thx
