Inventory Closing

lally

Hi All

Client is not regularly closing the inventory process ,but Financial period closing process runs on the every year .

I got stuck, while running inventory closing process in NAV 2015, with a transaction trying to post in 2015 (Period is closed).

We understand the issue with closed period, but need suggestion on what should be my course of action (in system and with business) to get around this error.

Please share your thoughts based on your experience with similar situation/issue.

Thanks in advance

Hi,
Maybe you have a "less than perfect configuration".
Please try this in first place.
Confirm that "Allow Posting From" and "Allow Posting To" in table 98 "General Ledger Setup" is aligned with financial period.
Confirm that sames fields in table 91 "User Setup" for user running the closing routine are empty or have the same values that are in table 98.
Some errors with closed periods are related to this dates are different.
I recommend to test this in a testing environment.

Regards and good luck,

What you should realize is this: Closing a Fiscal Year (using the - as you call it - Financial period closing process ) does not have anything to do with the question "Can I post to a specific Date?". If your Allow Posting From/To settings allow you to post to a specific date, it doe not matter whether that period is fiscally closed or not.

You should recommend your client to regularly use the Close Inventory Period-function (depending whether it is necessary of course by which Inventory evaluation method he is using).
