Environment
SAP Business ByDesign
Reproducing the Issue
- Go to the General Ledger workcenter
- Navigate to the Companies view
- Select Company ABC (ABC is the Company ID) and click on the set process controls tab
- Under the General Tab, select 01-Manual entries
- Click on the actions tab and simulate process control, there is a message On DD.MM.YYY postings are allowed for process group All and date DD.MM.YYYY though 04 - Time or Service Confirmation for period/year PPP/YYYY is blocked.
Cause
You will notice that the set process controls for 0-All entries which is not blocked and so it will override the 1 - Manual entries set process controls. Hence the system will allow entries for the date DD.MM.YYYY which are blocked with 04 - Time or Service Confirmation for period/year PPP/YYYY .
Resolution
- Go to the General Ledger workcenter
- Navigate to the Companies view
- SelectCompany ABC and click on the set process controls tab
- Under the General Tab, select 0-All entries and change the Process control status to Blocked
- Click on the Save button.
After this the users will not be able to simulate the 1 - Manual entries set process controls
