You have set up the user's access rights with no write access, only read access to work center view Sets of Books and Assigned Companies. Nevertheless, the user is still able to make changes to Open and Close Periods.

You have restricted write access for FIN_CLOSINGCOCKPITGL (Closing Cockpit) and FIN_COMPANIES (Sets of books and assigned companies) for the relevant business role but still the Open and close periods is can be accessed/edited by the user.

Navigate to the certain business role and go to the assigned work center view, there you see FIA_CLOSINGCOCKPITAUDIT Workcenter ID has read and write access for required Company.

If you set the read and write access for the company it will allow the user to set process control for that company and it will also allow the user to open and close the period for that company.

That is why you can see that the user is able to open and close the period. You have to restrict this workcenter id similar to how you did for FIN_CLOSINGCOCKPITGL and FIN_COMPANIES workcenter and then try to check if the user is able to open and close the period by saving any open and close period. it will throw an error that "you are not authorized to change the data".
