Open/Close Periods for Service Entry Sheets

Hi everyone,

We have a process where prior to closing the SAP Posting Period for Suppliers, Materials and Contract accounts SAP ledgers, all Service Entry Sheet’s which have not completed the full approval process (i.e. have an Approval Status of “In Approval”) are withdrawn (and then re-created in the new period).  This process occurs a few days prior to the end of a calendar month.

One of the reasons for withdrawing these SES’s is because any approval that becomes completed after closing of the above ledgers but still within the same calendar month results in the recognition of the values in the General Ledger in the current month, rather than the next month. I would have expected that since the Suppliers, Materials and Contract SAP ledgers are closed, the values would be recognised in the following period in the general ledger (even though the General Ledger is still open for current period). 

Is there a better way to cater for this?

Thanks

I think lokesh already answered your question.

The important thing is the posting date.

If the posting date is in current month it will be considered in current month.
