Posting and reversal date of parked invoice is not in same year

[Former Member]

Hi!

I appreciate if i can get help from here regarding parked invoice from year-end closing. I need to post several parked invoice with posting date 20191231 and reversal date 20200101 but i cannot open the new period (2020-01) before all 2019 vendor related documents finished. So when I use T-code ZFI2001 to fill in post and reversal date and run this report , it shows the error.. my question is that do I need to open 202001 period now? or there is another way to solve it? I suppose all 2019 documents need to be finished before open new period in next year for carry-forward and reversal of 2019 documents.

Thanks!

Best,

Weishan

Hi Weishan,

Transaction ZFI2001 is a custom transaction (as it start with a Z). Thus, we cannot advise you on this specific transaction code.

SAP allows to have multiple posting periods open at the same time. For example: it's possible to have period 12/2019 and 01/2020 open at the same time.

With regards to balance carry forward, it's possible to already post in the new fiscal year without executing balance carry forward and it's also possible to perform balance carry forward and still post in the old fiscal year.

Note that:

• Until balance carry forward is executed, general ledger balances for balance sheet accounts in the new fiscal year are incorrect;
• Once balance carry forward is executed, posting in the old fsical year are automatically carried forward at time of posting.
