Hi,

Check SAP notes 487381 and 369637 .

Check 1st ur fiscal year variant K4 or V3.

If ur in sandbox then follow the procedure not in production

1. USE t.code OX18, and delete the plants assigned to your CO.Cd and save.

2. USE t.code OMSY and change the posting period to the one you want and save.

3.USE t.code OX18 and assign the plants you have deleted in step 1.and save.

( if u follow this all G/L setting in OBYC will be deleted)

Note:

You can set period for Material Management in following process..............

In OMSY steps, u have to enter .....

Company Code .....

Company Name ..............

Fiscal Year of Current Period 2008

Current period (posting period) X

Fiscal year of previous period 2008( will come automatic)

Month of previous period( X-1)( will come automatic)

Fiscal year of last period of previous year 2007

Last month of previous year 12

Allow Posting to Previous Period (Back posting)

Disallow back posting after a change of period

hi

It is possible to re-open a previously closed period. However, it is NOT advisable to do so because the valuation data of the previous period could be affected.

In general, it is only safe to reopen a previously closed period when no material postings have been done after the period shifting to the new period.

If there has already been postings after the period shifting to the new period, reverting the period back will cause database inconsistencies in the history tables.

If you decide to proceed with this process, you can use the program RMMMINIT, but, please review the documentation of this program first!! and the check the SAP notes 487381 (for the error message that you are receiving) and the 369637 (for an explanation about the inconsistencies that will be generated.

Steps are as below;

Go to Transaction Code SE38

Enter program name RMMMINIT

Execute or press F8 function button

Enter your company code (From and To)

Enter relevant date: Say 01/03/2008 for Mar. 2008 month to be opened as of now

That means, user can post for the month of Feb 2008 as well as Mar. 2008

Refer SAP Note No. 487381 for more details.

As per SAP Notes 487381 ( If the periods are opened in advance in mmpv to again change it to current period the following process should be follow ), Go to Tcode MMPI, then go to menu bar and select system -> user profile->owndata.In that screen , under the parameters tab enter MMPI_READ_NOTE in Parameter ID field and enter, then under short description you will get Initialise period. Next Save.

Again go to MMPI enter company code, period and year and execute.

Other way of doing it is follow these steps( But try this method in Sand box Only):

1. Go to OX18, and delete the plants assigned to your CO.Cd and save.

2. Go to OMSY and change the posting period to the one u want and save.

3.Go to OX18 and assign the plants you have deleted in step 1.and save.
