To control periods during monthly closure for WPX companies.
For PF2 companies this task is performed by the DT team. For WP2 companies, while it is responsibility of SUMAC team, it is an automatic job on FCC.
For WPX companies, this has to be done manually as the access to the system is limited to select users.
Day D-1: MMPV transaction
WP2:
While it is an automatic FCC job, here is how it would be done manually:
On WP2, open transaction MMPV.
This transaction is always run for next period.
For example, for October/25 close we will run it for period 11/2025.
Do not execute right away. Go under program and click execute on background.
If using the automated job manager please make sure the the time of the job is correct.
Set it for the first day of the next month, running at midnight.
WPX:
Open transaction MMPV.
Same steps as in WP2, just check additional boxes that allow negative quantities and values in prev. period.
Do not execute right away. Go under program and click execute on background.
Set it for the first day of the next month, running at midnight.
Be sure to open transaction SM37 to check if MMPV is scheduled.
The job name should be RMMMPERI
Day D-1: OB52 transaction (WPX only)
On WPX, open transaction OB52.
Posting Period Variant is the company code.
Save before exiting.
WPX is unlike WP2 for OB52, there is no automatic central job that opens all companies.
Day D+1: SM37 Spool check
First thing to do on D+1 should be to check if MMPV ran correctly.
In order to do so, open SM37 and check the spool for the MMPV job.
If everything ran correctly we should get a message like this:
If it did not run correctly, the message we get is this one:
For instance, this error occurred because the period entered was 09 instead of 10.
Day D+1: MMPV transaction
Before Proceeding to the WPX and WP2 reconciliation the following steps have to be performed:
- Calculation of Process Orders Variances
Run KKS1 both in WP2 and WPX simultaneously; - Process Order Settlement
Run CO88 both in WP2 and WPX simultaneously; - Transfer Process Order Variances to WP2
Run ZWFA03A in WPX to transfer order variances to WP2.
Once Process Order settlement posted and D05/E05/F05 tie out in both systems (WP2/WPX) on KE30 we need to close the MM period using MMRV.
Open transaction MMRV uncheck the following box on both systems(WP2/WPX).
Day D+1: Closing OB52 and OKP1 (WPX)
Once the WIP entry has been posted in WP2 you may close OB52 and OKP1 in WPX only.
On WPX, open transaction OB52.
If we are closing moth 10, then the From per.1 should be 11 and the To Per.1 should be 12.
Finally, on WPX open transaction /n/FIN3/OKP1_BK.
Fill CO Area, Fiscal Year and Company Code. Version should be 0.
Select Actual.
Select the period you want to lock and press Lock Period.
Save before closing.
