It is possible to post an entry into previous period - but
before posting the entry we have to open the period for
which we are posting the entry...

Answer / nagabhuahan

it is possible only if the posting periods are open

Answer / shweta

once closed period open we can post the transaction in
pervious period. but it is not suggestible because after
closing of period all respective accounts i.e. Sales,Bank
and party reconciled/exchange fluctuation etc. and C/F to
the new period as opening balance as per standard
business/account practice. If we will post the transaction
forcible balance will mismatch of resepetive books.

specially in case of closing of period we have to take
extra care of sales and bank accounts.

Do correct me if I m wrong.

Answer / kesdec21

I am reading the question as why it is not advisable to
post to a ...............?
When we closed the period then all the G.L become freezed.
we pay statutory dues on the basis of balances of the
period. We also prepare all data after taking consideration
of these closed balance. and these balance going across to
all users.
If we passed an entry in customer account, ofcourse after
reopening the period, then all balance will be effected. To
over come with these problem SAP has provided us 16 months
period for a year, in which last 4 month is only for
adjustment entries.

Answer / manjusha

When you want to selectively ‘close’ or ‘open’ the posting period of some
accounts (account range), there will be no problem with that if you are doing it
for GL accounts. But, if it is a subledger account (such as the customer), it has
to be achieved via opening or closing the account interval of the ‘reconciliation
account’ of that account type.
