What causes this issue?

You want to carry out a full settlement. However, the settlement date
is within the period you want to settle. This is not allowed.

System Response

The full settlement is not carried out.

How to fix this error?

Check your entries for the settlement period and correct the settlement
period you have entered, if necessary.
If you wish to carry out an early final settlement, set the valid-to
date in the selected settlement units accordingly.
The settlement date may lie within the period to be settled if all
participating settlement units have a valid-to date that lies before
the settlement date (current date). This is necessary, for example, if
the business entity to be settled has been sold and a final settlement
must be carried out before year-end.

62267 - Details

• The SAP error message "62267 Period to be settled &-& has not yet expired" typically occurs in the context of settlement processes in SAP, particularly when dealing with internal orders, projects, or cost centers. This error indicates that the period you are trying to settle has not yet reached its expiration date, meaning that the system does not allow the settlement to proceed.
  
  Cause:
  
  Settlement Period Not Expired: The primary cause of this error is that the settlement period you are trying to process is still open. In SAP, each period has a defined start and end date, and settlements can only be processed for periods that have closed.
  Configuration Settings: The configuration settings in the controlling area or the specific order type may restrict settlements to only occur in closed periods.
  Posting Periods: The posting periods in the financial accounting module may not be closed, which can affect the ability to settle costs.
