Description

This program must be viewed in conjunction with the period closing program (RMMMPERI). It does the following:

  • Sets the current period
However, do not use this program to set the new period at the end of a period, and use it only in addition to the period closing program, never instead of it.
  • Makes it possible to create material master records if you are initializing a company code for the first time
However, to initialize company codes, you are recommended using the IMG activity Maintain company codes for materials management instead of this program.

You can also use this program to correct data inconsistencies, for example, due to user errors when running the period closing program, or that occur as a result of skipping several periods in a test system. However, first make sure you understand why the inconsistency arose and then decide whether running this program is the correct way of resolving it.

Caution
Be careful if the period used for initialization precedes the current period in the control record for the company code since this can result in an inconsistency between goods movements and material master segments. This is because the stock information in the material master segments is assigned to the new current period in this case (see the following example).

Example

Current period 02
Opening stock balance 0 pieces
Goods receipt 10 pieces
Period used for initialization 01

According to the material master segment, there are 10 pieces in stock in period 01, although 10 pieces were posted to stock in period 02 according to the goods movement document.

Requirements

  • Be sure you are fully aware what this program does before running it.
  • The material ledger must not be activated.
  • To run this program in background mode, you must have created a selection variant for it.

Output

This program issues a log indicating whether the company code(s) were initialized successfully.
