 +===== Updating posting periods in SAP Business One=====  
 + 
 +When using Bizweaver and the DI Server if posting periods are updated in SAP the DI Server needs to be restarted. The steps are as follows 
 +  * Open the SAP Service Manager from the Start menu. 
 +    * Start Menu 
 +    * SAP Business One Folder 
 +    * Service Manager 
 +  * Stop the DI Server 
 +  * Navigate to C:\Windows\Temp 
 +    * Delete the SMS_OBS_DLL file from Temp 
 +  * Start the DI Server 
 + 
 +Once this is done if you run a Bizweaver workflow that interacts with the DI Server it will generate the SMS_OBS_DLL file and connect to SAP now using the proper posting period.
