SAP Note 934627 - Differing posting period in settlement and reversal

Component : Period-end Closing -

Solution : https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/934627 (SAP Service marketplace login required)

Summary :
This SAP Note addresses an issue where settlements can be incorrectly posted in a subsequent posting period. This problem arises due to the application allowing postings in later periods when earlier periods are closed. To prevent such discrepancies, the note proposes configuration changes ensuring settlements and their reversals happen within the same posting period. Steps include creating and configuring error message KD 579 to issue an error if the posting period of the reversal does not match the original settlement. Additional details include modifying message settings via transactions OBMSG and OBA5, and implementing corrections with SNOTE.
