Customization in S/4Hana Public Cloud

[purva_gaikwad]

Hi, I have a requirement in S/4Hana Public Cloud. The requirement is :-

The customization is required in Post General Journal Entries app. If the system date falls in the 1st week of ever month then the posting date should be set to last date of previous month.

EX- If today is 2nd Dec. Then the posting date in the UI screen should be displayed as 30th Nov.

Kindly help on how this can be achieved.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Purva,

Some options that might help:

• You could implement a validation using the “Custom Logic” App that would validate the date and send a message (error or warning) if it’s not following the required logic. Please find an image below with the key steps in case you want to test this approach.
• Open the financial period after the 1^st week. I would consider this if there are specific accounts that could be managed like this. Another consideration is the material movement period since the logistic movement would be also impacted
• Implement a workflow to have a second (or more) business user(s) that would do the validation before posting the document.

I hope this helps.

Hi Raman,

Thank you for your response.

But my requirement - On the load of application itself the posting date should be set to previous months last date. So how can we set the date to the Posting Date field?
