Dear Team,

We are having a situation, where business never executes the capitalization before and from 2026 January they have a prject with periodical capitalization setup and when we try to create periodical capitalization for period 1, with proceedure id created for accounting year 2026 and P01. However, system picks the cost transactions from previous year, as there are some manual postings posted last year.

Is it normal behaviour of system, even though we have given accoutning year and period in the proceedure id, system still picks some cost postings from previous year that was not capitalized?

Hi, 

The process periodical cap, and rev rec is based on life to date values.  Assume capitalization should have been run in 2025 but was not. IFS will not leave that cost in a cost account for the 2015. Jan 2026 IFS will capitalize those 2025 cost.   It has to work that way; else you have uncapitalized cost. For a project where we plan to capitalize that cost, that would be incorrect to leave those values.
