Hi
We are auditing our items to correct their 1) Inventory Posting Group 2) Gen Posting Group 3) Dimension from original implementation. At the time of change we will have 1) open PO 2) Open Production order 3) open SO 4) shipped SO.
Is this going to cause major issue? if yes what is the best method to do this? Mainly from subledger entries, ledger entries.
Thanks
Hi, maybe the out-of-the-box features Configuration Package and Edit in Excel can help you.
But we made our own customizations to update existing documents such as posting groups and dimensions for different documents. Of course this requires doing a lot of testing in the test database first.
I think this is based on the customer's needs and is not required. As you might know, for posted sales invoice you can use Correct feature.
If you want to correct deimensions for General ledger entries, now we have new Correct Dimension feature.
So It's not a bad idea to leave it to the client to correct the data.
Thanks.

yzhums Hi Mr. Yun. Thanks for response. Is it any method to refresh those documents without deleting them (using the tool refresh directly). I mean any method that when those posting change we can use to refresh all open documents based on new posting, dimension setup?
As far as history goes we maybe fine with it.
Thanks
Hi, as mentioned by Igne, this is no problem on the system, but be careful with data issues.
I have encountered a similar case before, because the customer requested that after a certain point in time, they will be posted according to new posting group settins, so we cleaned up the system's outstanding orders (deleted or recreated, in many cases, using the tool refresh directly). Documents that are guaranteed to be posted after a certain point in time are in the new posting group settings.
Hope this will help.
Thank.

The only thing you will run into is that the general ledgers from these transactions will be posted to the G/L an dimensions according to your old settings. So you need to be aware of that / handle that.
Your change will not break the system logic as far as i can see so your operations should not fail.
NorthW Thanks Mr. Bruvik
If we do not update those open documents then are we going to run to any finance / inventory issue later? I mean for Ledger, Sub Ledger, Inventory Valuation? Usually all those order clear in 3 weeks time period.
Thanks
Not major issues. But unless you do a update of the posting groups and dimensions on your documents. They will keep the posting groups and dimensions that they got when they where created.
