FI posting period

Posting period is not open

FB50, FB60, F-02 or an interface rejects the posting because the posting date falls in a closed FI period.

Likely root causes

  1. The posting period is closed in the posting-period variant.
  2. The wrong posting date or company code was supplied.
  3. The account type is not open for the requested period even though another account type is.

What to inspect

  1. Posting date and company code on the document.
  2. OB52 — posting-period variant and account-type interval.
  3. Company-code assignment to the posting-period variant.

Resolution path

  1. Correct the posting date if it is wrong.
  2. If the date is valid, ask the authorized period-control owner to review OB52 for the required account type.
  3. Do not open a period broadly just to force one document through.
  4. Retest after the approved period setting is in place.
