• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message AY022 - Special depr. start was in closed year. Please check change. ?

  The SAP error message AY022 ("Special depreciation start was in closed year. Please check change.") typically occurs in the context of asset accounting when there is an attempt to post a special depreciation or adjustment for an asset that has a start date in a fiscal year that has already been closed.

  Posting Period Settings: The posting period settings in the configuration may restrict postings to certain periods,
