How to Open AP period in Oracle Apps R12

Oracle payable accounting period needs to be opened before any AP invoice could be entered in that period.
The date that you enter in the GL period field in the Invoice entry screen needs to be in an opened AP period.

If not opened / "future open", then you would see the below popup error (App-sqlap-10006).



Do the following to open/"future open" the AP period in Oracle payables module,

Login to oracle>Payables super user responsibility>Setup > Calender > Accounting > Accounting periods
You would see the below screen.



Open the required period by selecting "Open"/"Future" in the Period status field and save the change.

Now, invoice can be entered in the open/future period.
