  • What causes this issue?

    You have already posted in fiscal years that come after &V2&. This
    means that you can only post in the last posting period &V1& in fiscal
    year &V2&. Or you can post to a special period, if one is set up. Since
    you have not posted yet in this fiscal year, you must specify that the
    depreciation posting run is unplanned.

    System Response

    The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

    How to fix this error?

    Please check the fiscal year entered. If you are certain you want to
    post to fiscal year &V1&, you must start the depreciation posting run
    in the last posting period (or in the special period). Be sure to
    indicate that this posting run is unplanned, since it falls outside of
    the normal posting cycle.
