AA697 - Details

• The SAP error message AA697 ("Posting run for future period requested; please check entry") typically occurs in the context of Asset Accounting (FI-AA) when you attempt to post an asset transaction (such as depreciation, acquisition, or transfer) for a period that is not yet open in the system. This can happen if the posting date is set to a future date that is beyond the current fiscal period or if the period is closed for posting.
  
  Cause:
  
  Future Posting Date: The posting date of the transaction is set to a future date that is not allowed based on the current configuration of the fiscal year.
  Closed Period: The period you are trying to post to is closed in the system, meaning that no postings can be made for that period.
  Configuration Settings: The settings in the fiscal year variant may restrict postings to certain periods.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Posting Date: Verify the posting date of the transaction.
