Use

After you have released all the posting documents for a posting run, and the posting run thus has the status All documents released, you can post the posting documents.

You must post all the posting documents belonging to a posting run together in the Accounting components. Individual posting documents cannot be posted.

Prerequisites

The posting run has the status All documents released.

Procedure

  1. Go to the overview of posting runs.
  2. Select the required posting runs.
  3. Choose This graphic is explained in the accompanying text.

A dialog box is displayed, in which you must confirm that you want to post the posting documents for the selected posting runs.

  1. Choose Immediately or Create job, to start the reversal or This graphic is explained in the accompanying text Cancel, to cancel the reversal.

Result if Successful

If you use Human Resources and Accounting in the same system, the posting documents were posted in the components affected in Accounting. The posting run has the status Documents posted.

If you use Human Resources and Accounting in separate systems, posting does not take place simultaneously in the Accounting components. The system creates Idocs for the posting documents for a posting run. The posting run gets the status Documents transferred. The Idocs are sent to the logical system, in which the posting documents should be posted, using the ALE interface. When processing the Idoc in the target system, the posting documents are posted in the Accounting components affected.

If agreed with Accounting, you can reverse posting documents that have been posted, if this is necessary because of an error in the contents.

Result if Unsuccessful

The posting run has the status Document transfer has failed. Posting to Accounting did not take place.

Depending on the error that occurred, it may be a good idea to start posting this posting run once again. If the error still occurs and it is not possible to post the posting run, you must delete the posting run and create a new one.
