Scenario

 

During fiscal year 2022, company has declared profitability to its managements up to 30th June 2022. After declaration of profitability, the profit figures should not be changed.

 

If we keep posting periods open for from April 2022, and  if users post any transaction in April 2022 date, then the profitability figures declared will be changes. Enroll in our SAP FICO course in Pune today and take the first step towards a successful career in finance and accounting!

 

So as a SAP consultant it is good to close the posting periods from April 2022 to 30th June 2022, and keep open posting periods from 1st July 2022 to 31st march 2023.So the users can post accounting entries from July 2022 to march 2023.
