The root cause should be that the following `Restriction Types` are currently set to `Restricted` in the `Access category` Write, and no values have been maintained for them.

• Access Category: Write  
• Access Restriction: Restricted  
• Restricted Field: Posting Period Variant
• Restriction types:
  Manage Posting Periods: Authorization Groups  
  Manage Posting Periods: Period Variants  
  Manage Posting Periods: Periods  

Update the following restriction types within the `Access Category` to `Unrestricted`or maintain values accordingly:

• Manage Posting Periods: Authorization Groups
• Manage Posting Periods: Period Variants
• Manage Posting Periods: Periods
  

Verify that the `Set Posting Period` button is enabled after making the changes.
