  Solution:
  
  
  Check Fiscal Year Variant:
  
  Go to the transaction code OB29 (Define Fiscal Year Variant).

  Define Posting Periods:

  Review Company Code Settings:
  
  Check the company code settings in transaction code OBY6 to ensure that the correct fiscal year variant is assigned.
  
  
  
  Consult with Configuration Team:
  
  If you are not authorized to make changes, consult with your SAP configuration team or financial controller to ensure that the fiscal year and periods are set up correctly.
  
  
  
  Check for Period Locking:
  
  Ensure that the period is not locked for posting. If it is locked, you may need to unlock it or post in a different period.
