FW: FIPP - Change Fiscal Year

[Loesel Ulrike]

Hello Nat,
 
I am not quite sure if I understand what you mean.
At least when I changed the posting date to the new year the posting period
for this date was open. (The document date of the parked doc is usually kept
to the original one.)
 
Thank you,
Ulrike
