Definition

If you want to post to a special period or the carry-forward period, you must specify that here. Using the period that you specify here, the system then posts to the ledgers irrespective of the period determined from the posting date.

If a ledger/company code or ledger/global company combination has a fiscal year variant without special periods, the period for this ledger is determined on the basis of the posting date. If a fiscal year variant has fewer special periods, data is posted to the last special period.

The valid values are the special periods that exist for this company code or the special periods that exist for the company code assigned to this global company. For global postings, you can only specify special periods if a company code is assigned to the global company.

You can only specify special periods if the posting date refers to the last period of the fiscal year; you can only specify period 0 if the posting date refers to the first period of the fiscal year.
