Hi

<b>MMPI </b>INITIALIZE PERIOD FOR MASTER MATERIAL RECORD FROM CO CODE

e.g.

MM Reopen posting period - MMPI transaction

Today I had to deal with this MM reopen period issue.

Problem: One user opened by mistake period 06 year 2005 but they still had documents for posting in period 04.

Solution: The solution is running the MMPI transaction and read note 48781.

This is a post I found on sap.ittoolbox.com SAP forum which explain some basic steps to reopen the MM period.

1. Lock all users out of PRD

2. Take snapshot of MB5L for all materials at company code for current and previous periods

3. Add User parameter MMPI_READ_NOTE with value = current date in this format YYYYMMDD

4. Stop all processing that updates inventory values

5. Run t-code MMPI with correct period

6. Run Z_DEl_HIST_ENTRIES program

7. Take MB5L snapshot for all materials at company code fs01 for current and previous periods

8. Validate that values match on MB5L pre-post snapshots or are appropriate.

9. Unlock all users in PRD

10. Remove User parameter MMPI_READ_NOTE from user ID

Good luck if you have such a problem.

Be carefully if you want to reopen a period that is far in the past!!!!

Hello

I think it is MMPI to initialise period for Material Master records. Material Module also have a period opening and closing with transaction code MMPV to start the same for first time you have to use transaction code MMPI from the same year and period the material records get initialise.

If it resolve your doubt kindly give the marks

Thanks & Regards
