  • What causes this issue?

    In most cases, the <GL:cutoff_period>cutoff period</> is the period
    preceding the results analysis period (that is, the period preceding
    the period for which <DS:GLOS.3526B772AFAB52B9E10000009B38F974>WIP
    calculation</> or <DS:GLOS.3526B6A7AFAB52B9E10000009B38F974>results
    analysis</> is performed). Each month, you set the cutoff period to the
    next period.
    However, in your case you have defined an earlier period to be the
    cutoff period. If you define an earlier period to be the cutoff period,
    the <DS:GLOS.3526B73CAFAB52B9E10000009B38F974>results analysis data</>
    calculated in the previous periods by the WIP calculation process or by
    results analysis can be changed. As a consequence, the results analysis
    data in CO may no longer match the settled results analysis data in FI.
    If you use <DS:GLOS.3526B6F2AFAB52B9E10000009B38F974>product cost
    collectors</> in the Product Cost by Period component, setting the
    cutoff period is one of the requirements for being able to flag product
    cost collectors for deletion. This is because before the deletion flag
    is set, it must be ensured that the period-end closing activities have
    been completed and cannot be repeated. The cutoff period for WIP
    calculation is the factor that ensures that WIP calculation for a
    period cannot be repeated.
    Product cost collectors for which the deletion flag (status DLFL) is
    set are not included in the period-end closing process. If you withdraw
    the cutoff period, it will again become possible to calculate WIP. If
    product cost collectors have been flagged for deletion in the meantime,
    they will no longer be included. In this case the WIP calculation
    process would be based on incomplete data.

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

    System Response

    How to fix this error?

    Check your entry in the <DS:GLOS.results_analysis_version>results
    analysis version</>. Consider the effects that withdrawing the cutoff
    period can have, particularly in the Product Cost by Period component.
    Change the cutoff period if appropriate.
    For detailed information on reorganizing product cost collectors, refer
    to the documentation <LS>Cost Object Controlling</>. This documentation
    also includes detailed information on the WIP calcuation process.

This can happen if the financial period has been closed for reporting or if the cutoff date has been reached. Configuration Settings: The system may have specific settings that prevent postings to certain periods, especially if they fall before a defined cutoff date. Authorization Issues: Sometimes, the user may not have the necessary authorizations to post in a closed period.
    Solution: Check Period Status: Verify the status of the period you are trying to post to.
