Posting Period Variant in Table T001B
This checkpoint is relevant exclusively for org.-dependent conversions.
Table T001B contains the definitions of posting period variants. These
variants are assigned to company codes in table T001. A variant can be
assigned to more than one company code. It may be confusing that the
relevant field in table T001B is called BUKRS, but refers to domain
OPVAR. Consequently, delimitation by company codes is not possible.
Background:
This means that variants may also be used in company codes that do
<ZH>not </>participate in the conversion.
By default, the table is covered by fiscal year conversion.
How to Proceed:
If this check ends successfully ( status GREEN ), no action is required.
If this check ends with warning ( status YELLOW ), following action can
be performed:
If you decide that the table should not be covered by the conversion,
but adjusted manually, the table must be excluded from the conversion;
This is done in the activity <ZK>Consider Analysis Results</>.
If you decide that the table should participate in the conversion and
that you want to resolve the posting period variant conflict manually,
the table must be included in the conversion; This is done in the
activity <ZK>Consider Analysis Results</>.
If you still cannot decide and need further help; contact SAP for
support by creating a ticket using component CA-LT.
In any case, the table must be double-checked after the conversion, and
the Customizing may have to be modified accordingly.
