ERP stands for Enterprise Resource Planning. ERP is a way to integrate the data and processes of an organization into
one single system. Usually ERP systems will have many components including hardware and software, in order to
achieve integration, most ERP systems use a unified database to store data for various functions found throughout the
organization. The ERP solutions seek to streamline and integrate operation processes and information flows in the
company to synergies the resources of an organization namely men, material, money and machine through
information. Initially implementation of an ERP package was possible only for very large Multi National Companies
and Infrastructure Companies due to high cost involved.
Integration is an extremely important part to ERP's. ERP's main goal is to integrate data and processes from all areas of
an organization and unify it for easy access and work flow. ERP's usually accomplish integration by creating one
single database that employs multiple software modules providing different areas of an organization with various
business functions.
Components of ERP
To enable the easy handling of the system the ERP has been divided into the following Core subsystems:
An ideal ERP system is when a single database is utilized and contains all data for various software modules. These
software modules can include:
Manufacturing: Some of the functions include; engineering, capacity, workflow management, quality control, bills of
material, manufacturing process, etc.
Financials: Accounts payable, accounts receivable, fixed assets, general ledger and cash management, etc.
Supply Chain Management: Inventory, supply chain planning, supplier scheduling, claim processing, order entry,
purchasing, etc.
Customer Relationship Management: sales and marketing, service, commissions, customer contact, calls center
support, etc.
Data Warehouse: Usually this is a module that can be accessed by an organizations customers, suppliers and
employees.

Features of ERP
Some of the major features of ERP and what ERP can do for the business system are as below:
• ERP facilitates company-wide Integrated Information System covering all functional areas like
Manufacturing, Selling and distribution, Payables, Receivables, Inventory, Accounts, Human resources,
Purchases etc.,
• ERP performs core Corporate activities and increases customer service and thereby augmenting the Corporate
Image.
• ERP bridges the information gap across the organisation.
• ERP provides for complete integration of Systems not only across the departments in a company but also
across the companies under the same management.
• ERP is the only solution for better Project Management.
• ERP allows automatic introduction of latest technologies like Electronic Fund Transfer(EFT), Electronic Data
Interchange(EDI), Internet, Intranet, Video conferencing, E-Commerce etc.
• ERP eliminates the most of the business problems like Material shortages, Productivity enhancements,
Customer service, Cash Management, Inventory problems, Quality problems, Prompt delivery etc.,
• ERP not only addresses the current requirements of the company but also provides the opportunity of
continually improving and refining business processes.
• ERP provides business intelligence tools like Decision Support Systems (DSS), Executive Information
System (EIS), Reporting, Data Mining and Early Warning Systems (Robots) for enabling people to make
better decisions and thus improve their business processes
Benefits of ERP
The benefits accruing to any business enterprise on account of implementing are unlimited. According to the
companies like NIKE, DHL, Tektronix, Fujitsu, Millipore, Sun Microsystems, following are some of the benefits they
achieved by implementing ERP packages:
• Gives Accounts Payable personnel increased control of invoicing and payment processing and thereby
boosting their productivity and eliminating their reliance on computer personnel for these operations.
• Reduce paper documents by providing on-line formats for quickly entering and retrieving information.
• Improves timeliness of information by permitting, posting daily instead of monthly.
• Greater accuracy of information with detailed content, better presentation, fully satisfactory for the Auditors.
• Improved Cost Control
• Faster response and follow up on customers
• More efficient cash collection, say, material reduction in delay in payments by customers.
• Better monitoring and quicker resolution of queries.
• Enables quick response to change in business operations and market conditions.
• Helps to achieve competitive advantage by improving its business process.
• Improves supply-demand linkage with remote locations and branches in different countries.
• Provides a unified customer database usable by all applications.
• Improves International operations by supporting a variety of tax structures, invoicing schemes, multiple
currencies, multiple period accounting and languages.
• Improves information access and management throughout the enterprise.
• Provides solution for problems like Y2K and Single Monitory Unit(SMU) or Euro Currency.
Implementation of ERP
Implementing an ERP package has to be done on a phased manner. Step by step method of implementing will yield a
better result than big-bang introduction. The total time required for successfully implementing an ERP package will be
anything between 18 and 24 months. The normal steps involved in implementation of an ERP are as below:
• Project Planning
• Business & Operational analysis including Gap analysis
• Business Process Reengineering
• Installation and configuration
• Project team training
• Business Requirement mapping

About SAP
In 1972, five former IBM employees -- Dietmar Hopp, Hans-Werner Hector, Hasso Plattner, Klaus Tschira, and
Claus Wellenreuther -- launch a company called Systems, Applications, and Products in Data Processing in
Mannheim, Germany. Their vision: to develop standard application software for real-time business processing.
The original name for SAP was German: Systeme, Anwendungen, Produkte, and German for "Systems Applications
and Products." The original SAP idea was to provide customers with the ability to interact with a common corporate
database for a comprehensive range of applications. Gradually, the applications have been assembled and today many
corporations, including IBM and Microsoft, are using SAP products to run their own businesses.
SAP applications, built around their latest R/3 system, provide the capability to manage financial, asset, and cost
accounting, production operations and materials, personnel, plants, and archived documents. The R/3 system runs on a
number of platforms including Windows 2000 and uses the client/server model. The latest version of R/3 includes a
comprehensive Internet-enabled package.
SAP moves into the company's first building on Max-Planck-Strasse in an industrial park in Walldorf, near Heidelberg.
Our software development area and its 50 terminals are all now under one roof. Fifty of the 100 largest German
industrial firms are already SAP customers.
The SAP R/2 system attains the high level of stability of the previous generation of programs. Keeping in mind its
multinational customers, SAP designs SAP R/2 to handle different languages and currencies. With this and other
innovations in SAP R/2, SAP sees rapid growth.
By the middle of the decade, SAP founds its first sales organization outside Germany, in Austria. The company makes
its first appearance at the CeBIT computer fair in Hanover, Germany. Revenues reach DM 100 million (around $52
million), earlier than expected.
In August 1988, SAP GmbH becomes SAP AG. Starting on November 4, 1.2 million shares are listed on the Frankfurt
and Stuttgart stock exchanges.
Germany's renowned business journal, manager magazine, names SAP its Company of the Year -- a distinction we
would receive twice more in the next few years.
With the founding of subsidiaries in Denmark, Sweden, Italy, and the United States, SAP's international expansion
takes a leap forward.
SAP R/3 is unleashed on the market. The client-server concept, uniform appearance of graphical interfaces, consistent
use of relational databases, and the ability to run on computers from different vendors meets with overwhelming
approval. With SAP R/3, SAP ushers in a new generation of enterprise software -- from mainframe computing to the
three-tier architecture of database, application, and user interface. To this day, the client-server architecture is the
standard in business software.
A growing number of subsidiaries are managed out of Walldorf. The new Sales and Development Center in Walldorf
officially opens it doors. It symbolizes the global success of the company. In our twentieth year, our business outside
Germany exceeds 50 percent of total sales for the first time.
By 1996, the company has earned 1,089 new SAP R/3 customers. At the end of the year, SAP R/3 has been installed in
more than 9,000 systems worldwide.
SAP celebrates its twenty-fifth anniversary in 1997 and now employs approximately 12,900 people. We continue to
strengthen our industry focus and build more and more industry-specific solutions. Henning Kagermann becomes Co-
Chairman and CEO of SAP AG with Hasso Plattner. On August 3, 1998, the letters S-A-P appear for the first time on
the Big Board at the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), the largest stock exchange in the world.

As the decade draws to a close, Hasso Plattner, Co-Founder, Co-Chairman, and CEO announces the mySAP.com
strategy, heralding the beginning of a new direction for the company and our product portfolio. mySAP.com links e-
commerce solutions to existing ERP applications, using state-of-the-art Web technology.
With the Internet, the user becomes the focus of software applications. SAP develops SAP Workplace and paves the
way for the idea of an enterprise portal and role-specific access to information.
Currently, more than 12 million users work each day with SAP solutions. There are now 121,000 installations
worldwide, more than 1,500 SAP partners, over 25 industry-specific business solutions, and more than 41,200
customers in 120 countries. SAP is the world's third-largest independent software vendor.

System Landscape
Landscape is like a server system or like a layout of the servers or some may even call it the architecture of the server’s
viz. SAP is divided into three different landscapes:
- DEV would have multiple clients for ex: 190- Sandbox, 100- Golden, 180- Unit Test.
- QAS may again have multiple clients for ex: 300- Integration Test, 700 to 710 Training.
These names and numbers are the implementer's discreet on how they want it or they have been using in their previous
implementations or how is the client's business scenario.
Now whatever you do in the Sandbox doesn't affect the other servers or clients. Whenever you think you are satisfied
with your configuration and you think you can use it moving forward, you RE-DO it in the golden client (remember,
this is a very neat and clean client and you cannot use it for rough usage). As you re-do everything that you had
thought was important and usable, you get a transport request pop up upon saving every time. You save it under a
transport request and give your description to it. Thus the configuration is transported to the Unit Test client (180 in
this example).
You don't run any transaction or even use the SAP Easy Access screen on the 100 (golden) clients. This is a
configuration only client. Now upon a successful transport by the Basis guy, you have the entire configuration in the
Testing client, just as it is in the Golden client. The configuration remains in sync between these two clients.
But in the Testing client you can not even access SPRO (Display IMG) screen. It's a transaction only client where you
perform the unit test. Upon a satisfactory unit test, you move the good configuration to the next SERVER (DEV). The
incorrect or unsatisfactory configuration is corrected in Golden (may again as well be practiced in the sandbox prior to
Golden) and accordingly transported back to 180 (Unit Test) until the unit test affected by that particular config is
satisfactory.
The Golden client remains the 'database' (if you want to call it that) or you may rather call it the 'ultimate' reference
client for the entire good, complete and final configuration that is being used in the implementation.
In summary:
IDES: is purely for education purpose and is NOT INCLUDED in the landscape.
DEVELOPMENT: is where the consultants do the customization as per the company's requirement.
QUALITY: is where the core team members and other members test the customization.
1. Sandbox server: In the initial stages of any implementation project, You are given a sandbox server where you do all
the configuration/customization as per the companies business process.
-9-
SAP FI/CO – FI Material MAHESH JAVAJEE
Version ECC 6.0
2. Development Server: - Once the BBP gets signed off, the configuration is done is development server and saved in
workbench requests, to be transported to Production server.
3. Production Server: This is the last/ most refined client where the user will work after project GO LIVE. Any
changes/ new development is done is development client and the request is transported to production.
These three are landscape of any Company. They organized their office in these three ways. Developers develop their
program in Development server and then transport it to test server. In testing server tester check/test the program and
then transport it to Production Server. Later it will deploy to client from production server.

What is Client?
Definition
A commercially, organizationally, and technically self-contained unit within an SAP System. Clients have
their own master records and set of tables.
The client is the highest level in the SAP System hierarchy. Specifications that you make, or data that you
enter at this level are valid for all company codes and for all other organizational structures. You therefore
only need to make these specifications, or enter this data once. This ensures that the data is consistent.
Users must enter a client key when they log on to the SAP System. This defines the client in which they
wish to work. All the entries you make are saved per client. Data processing and analysis is also carried out
per client.
This means that you cannot include customer accounts from different clients in one dunning run.
Access authorization is assigned per client. You must create a user master record for each user in the client
where he or she wishes to work.
The SAP System is delivered with the clients 000 and 001 - these clients already contain default settings.
For more information, see Setting Up Clients in Customizing. These sections are automatically selected
when you create your implementation projects (company IMG, project IMG).

Smallest organizational unit of external accounting for which a complete, self-contained set of accounts can
be created. This includes the entry of all transactions that must be posted and the creation of all items for
legal individual financial statements, such as the balance sheet and the profit and loss statement.
The company code is the central organizational unit of external accounting within the SAP System. You
must define at least one company code before implementing the Financial Accounting component. The
business transactions relevant for Financial Accounting are entered, saved, and evaluated at company code
level.
You usually create a legally independent company in the SAP System with one company code. However,
you can also define a company code according to other criteria. A company code could also be a separate,
but not independent, commercial place of work. This is necessary for example, if the place of work is
actually situated in a different country and evaluations therefore have to be carried out in the appropriate
national currency and in accordance with other tax and legal specifications.
If you want to manage the accounting for several independent companies simultaneously, you can set up
several company codes in one client. You must set up at least one company code in each client.
If you use other components of the SAP System, you have to make assignments between the company
code as the central organizational unit of Financial Accounting, and the organizational units of the other
components. This is necessary to ensure that data can be transferred between the components.

Organizational unit of external accounting that corresponds to a specific business segment or area of
responsibility in a company. Movements in value entered in Financial Accounting are assigned to business
areas.
Financial statements can be created for business areas for internal purposes.
Business areas are used in external segment reporting (over and above company codes), based on the
significant areas of operation of a company (for example, product lines, branches).
To post items in a business area, enter the business area when you enter the business transaction.
However, the business area can also be derived from other account assignments, such as the cost center.
To enable the system to do this, you must define the business area in the cost center master record.

During posting, the system derives the functional area from the master data of the assigned objects.
In order that expenses can be sorted according to corporate functions, the system derives the functional
area for the following postings.
• Primary postings (postings in Financial Accounting) to a profit and loss account
• Secondary postings (allocations in Controlling)
The functional area is derived for both objects involved in the allocation.
No functional area is derived in the following cases:
• Postings to balance sheet accounts
• When creating statistical key figures in Controlling
- 25 -

The system derives the functional area after saving. The derived functional area is thus first available in the
document created and not on the entry screen.
The system derives the functional area according to the following logic:
...
• The system derives the functional area from the master data of the assigned objects. If an object is
assigned during a posting, the system checks whether a functional area has been entered in the master
record of the object. The system retains this functional area. However, it may be overwritten by
subsequent checks.
• The system derives the functional area from the master record of the G/L account or the cost element.
The system checks whether a functional area is entered in the master record of the cost element or the
P&L account. This functional area overwrites the functional area derived from the assigned object.
• The system derives the functional area via substitution for the component Financial Accounting, Event
0005. If a functional area has already been defined, this is overwritten with the functional area obtained
via substitution.
• Where you are not able to enter a functional area in the master data of an object, for example business
process or real estate objects.
• When you want to specify exceptions where derivation from the object should not occur.

Define Segment:
Division of a company for which you can create financial statements for external reporting.
You can enter a segment in the master record of a profit center. The characteristic Segment is only released in
combination with the characteristic Profit Center. If no segment is specified manually during posting (only possible for
transactions in Financial Accounting), the segment is determined from the master record of the profit center. This
profit center can also be assigned manually or derived. If you want to apply different rules to derive the segment during
posting, you can define your own rules for this.
IAS requires for segment reporting primary and secondary segmentation, which have different reporting depth. A
distinction is made between the following types of segment:
Business segment
A business segment is a distinguishable subactivity of a company that relates to the manufacture of a product or the
provision of a service and that has risks and revenues that differ from those in other business segments.
Geographical segment
A geographical segment is a distinguishable subactivity of a company that relates to the manufacture of a product or
the provision of a service within a specific field of business. The risks and revenues of a geographical segment differ
from the subactivities in other fields of business.
You can choose which segment type you want to have as the primary or the secondary segmentation. You can use the
Segment dimension for the primary segmentation. You can represent the secondary segmentation in your system. You
can do this by including a user-defined field Region in your general ledger accounting, for example.

FISCAL YEAR
You have the following options for defining your fiscal year variants in relation to the calendar year:
Fiscal Year
Since your fiscal year is not the same as the calendar year, you have to specify the year displacement for each posting
period. You can use the entries -1, 0, and +1 for this.
In the illustration that follows, your fiscal year begins on April 1 and ends on March 31. The period limits correspond
to the beginning and end of the calendar months.
Since the fiscal year does not correspond to the calendar year, you specify how the fiscal year is to be determined by
entering the year displacement. If you post with a posting date of 02/03/99, the system uses your definition of the fiscal
year variant to determine that posting period 11 is in fiscal year 1998.
Posting Periods Do Not Correspond To Calendar Months. If you are using a non-calendar fiscal year, and your posting
periods do not correspond to the calendar months, define the difference by specifying the day of the period end.
Your fiscal year begins on April 16 and ends on April 15. The start and end of your posting periods do not correspond
to the start and end of a calendar month.
- 53 -
SAP FI/CO – FI Material MAHESH JAVAJEE
Version ECC 6.0
You must split the period 12/16 to 01/15 in two posting periods, since you require different specifications for the year
displacement. This means that for posting period 9, you have to define two posting periods (with year displacements 0
and -1).
In the example given, the system would determine the following posting periods and fiscal years from the posting dates
given:
20.12.1998 0 9 1998
13.01.1999 -1 9 1998
To do this, select the field Year-dependent when you define your fiscal year variants. You then have to enter the period
ends, defined by month and day limits, for each calendar year.
In this case, the year displacement specifications refer to the calendar year for which you have defined posting periods.
The year is displayed when you maintain the period ends.
Special Periods
Special posting periods that subdivide the last regular posting period for closing operations.
Irrespective of how you have defined your fiscal year, you can also use special periods. Special periods subdivide the
year-end closing period. They therefore merely divide the last posting period into several closing periods. This enables
you to create several supplementary financial statements.
A fiscal year usually has 12 posting periods. In General Ledger Accounting, you can define up to four special periods.
If you do not need 12 posting periods, you can use the posting periods that are not required as special periods. If you
use these additional closing periods, you must specify the number you require in the field No. special periods. when
defining the fiscal year variants. You cannot exceed a maximum of 16 periods.
- 54 -
SAP FI/CO – FI Material MAHESH JAVAJEE
Version ECC 6.0
When posting to special periods, you must take the following into consideration:
• The posting date must fall within the last regular posting period.
• You have to enter the special periods in the document header in the Period field, since the special periods
cannot be determined automatically by the system.

POSTING PERIODS
When you record a document, you enter the posting date. When you post the document, the system uses the posting
date specified to automatically determine the posting period. The posting period consists of a month and a fiscal year.
These are both displayed in the document overview. The posting period determined is entered in the document and the
transaction figures for this period are updated.
For postings to the previous fiscal year, the system carries out the following adjustments:
For balance sheet accounts, the system adjusts the carry forward balance of the accounts concerned in the current fiscal
year.
For profit and loss accounts, the profit or loss carried forward to the retained earnings account is adjusted.

You define posting periods in your fiscal year variants. You can open and close these posting periods for posting. As
many periods as you require can be open for posting simultaneously.
Usually, only the current posting period is open for posting, all other posting periods are closed. At the end of this
posting period, the period is closed, and the next posting period is opened. Special periods can be open for closing
postings during the period-end closing. You have the following options for opening and closing posting periods.
Posting Period Variants
You can specify which company codes are open for posting in a posting period variant. Posting period variants are
cross-company code and you have to assign them to your company codes. The posting periods are then opened and
closed simultaneously for all company codes via the posting period variants.
Working with posting period variants is recommended if you are responsible for a large number of company codes.
Since you only have to open and close the posting period once for the variant, your work is considerably reduced.
Account Type
- 59 -
SAP FI/CO – FI Material MAHESH JAVAJEE
Version ECC 6.0
You can differentiate the opening and closing of posting periods by account type. This means that for a specific
posting period, postings can be permitted to customer accounts, but not to vendor accounts. For each posting period
that should be open, you must always specify at least account type. You can exercise more detailed control by
specifying further account types.
Using the minimum entry, when you enter the posting date in the document header, the system checks whether the
posting period determined in the posting period variant can be posted to. As soon as you then enter an account number,
in a second step, the system checks whether the posting period is permitted for the account specified.
Account Interval
You can differentiate the opening and closing of posting periods by account intervals. This means that you only open a
posting period for posting to a specific account.
Account intervals always apply to G/L accounts. If you want to open sub ledger accounts, you have to enter the
corresponding reconciliation account and the account type.
During the closing operations, you can, for example, use the reconciliation accounts to close customer and vendor
accounts before G/L accounts. This allows you to prevent further postings to these accounts after you have confirmed
the balances with your customers and vendors. Balance confirmation is one of the prerequisites for further closing
operations.
You can open and close posting periods only for specific users. To do this, enter an authorization group at document
header level. This authorization group is effective only in time period 1 and prevents users who do not have the
appropriate authorization for the authorization object F_BKPF_BUP (accounting document: Authorization for posting
periods) from posting in periods which are only open for time period 1.

Define Ledgers for General Ledger Accounting
Ledger
A ledger is a section of a database table. A ledger only contains those dimensions of the totals table that the ledger is
based on and that are required for reporting.
In General Ledger Accounting, you can use several ledgers in parallel. This allows you to produce financial statements
according to different accounting principles, for example. You create a ledger for each of the general ledgers you need.
A ledger uses several dimensions from the totals table it is based on. Each dimension of the totals table represents a
subset of the coding block. You can also include customer fields in your ledgers. To do this, you have to add the
customer field to the coding block and then include this field in the totals table that the ledger is based on.
Non-leading ledger
The non-leading ledgers are parallel ledgers to the leading ledger. They can be based on a local accounting principle,
for example. You have to activate a non-leading ledger for the individual company codes.
Posting procedures with sub ledger or G/L accounts managed on an open item basis always affect all ledgers. This
means that you cannot perform ledger-specific postings to sub ledger or G/L accounts managed on an open item basis.
If you manage G/L accounts on an open item basis to monitor accounting aspects such as reserve allocations and
reversals, you need to take additional measures in your internal controls system.
Non-leading ledgers can have different fiscal year variants and different posting period variants per company code to
the leading ledger of this company code. The second and third currency of the non-leading ledger must be a currency
that is managed as second or third currency in the respective company code. However, you do not have to have a
second and third currency in the parallel ledgers; these are optional. Alternative currencies are not possible.
Rollup ledgers
In addition to your parallel ledgers, you can also define a rollup ledger for special reporting purposes. In a rollup
ledger, you can combine summarized data from other ledgers in General Ledger Accounting. This enables you to
compile cumulated reports on different ledgers.
Day ledgers
You use a day ledger to create a day ledger if you want to create reports for average balances (reports for displaying
average daily balances). You can activate the day ledger for drilldown reporting.
You may not define day ledgers as the leading ledger or as the representative ledger in a ledger group.

DOCUMENT TYPES
Document types we distinguish between original documents and IT documents. Examples of original documents are
receipts, invoices, checks, or bank statements. Examples of IT documents are accounting documents, sample
documents, or recurring entry documents.
The accounting document reproduces the original document in the system. All other IT documents are used as entry
tools. Each document then remains in the system as a coherent unit until it is archived.
Documents are essential for checking the accuracy of postings in the compact journal and general ledger. For this
reason, each posting is based on a document.
Documents represent the link between the business transaction and posting in accounting.
Only complete documents can be posted in the SAP system. "Complete" means that the balance from the debit and
credit items is zero. Further conditions for posting a document are that you must enter the basic account assignment
data, such as document date, posting date, document type, posting key, account number, and amounts. You must make
entries in all the required fields (these are defined as "required" during system configuration).
A document consists of a document header and at least two document line items:
● Document Header
The document header is a part of the document that contains information that applies to the entire document, such as
the document date and document number. It also includes controlling information such as the document type.
The document line item is a part of the document that contains information on an item. This includes the amount, an
account number, whether the item is a debit or credit, and additional information depending on the transaction to be
posted. A document line item can also contain additional account assignments (for example, profit center, cost center)
and an explanatory text.
• Document Views
You can display a document in two different views in General Ledger Accounting:
● Entry View
In the entry view, a document contains the document line items originally entered or transferred from the original
component.
In the general ledger view, a document contains the document line items originally entered or transferred from the
original component, split line items generated by document splitting, or additionally generated clearing items.
Documents in the general ledger view always apply to a specific ledger.
You can display the posted documents in the entry view and in the general ledger view. For more information, see
Document Display.
Differentiating between business transactions. The document type tells you instantly what sort of business transaction
is in question. This is useful, for example, when displaying line items for an account.
Controlling the posting to account types (vendor, customer, or G/L accounts). The document type determines which
account types that particular document can be posted to.
- 66 -
SAP FI/CO – FI Material MAHESH JAVAJEE
Version ECC 6.0
A number range is assigned to every document type. The numbers for the documents you create are taken from this
number range. The original documents from one number range should be stored together. In this way, the document
type controls document storage.
To ensure that the document numbers in the leading ledger as well as those in the non-leading ledgers do not present
any gaps, you should define a document type with its own number range for postings from valuations to the leading
ledger. You then use this document type for valuation postings to the non-leading ledgers as well. Notwithstanding,
you assign a distinct number range to this document type for postings from valuations to non-leading ledgers.
In General Ledger Accounting, the document types you define for the documents in the entry view need to be different
to those for the documents in the general ledger view:
For your leading ledger, you can use the document types delivered by SAP or you can define your own document
types.
For your non-leading ledgers, you only need to define separate document types for documents in the entry view for
those ledgers that are used as the representative ledger in a ledger group.
For your non-leading ledgers, you only need to define separate document types for documents in the general ledger
view if the fiscal year variant of the non-leading ledger differs from the fiscal year variant of the leading ledger in a
given company code.

DOCUMENT NUMBER RANGES
In the SAP System, every document is assigned a number that identifies it uniquely within a fiscal year and company
code.
When you reverse documents, the system automatically assigns a number for the reverse document. To do this, the
system requires a document type that has internal number assignment. Every document type with external number
assignment must therefore be assigned a reverse document type that has internal number assignment.
Documents posted with a document type that has internal number assignment are reversed by the system using the
same document type if you do not specify a separate reverse document type.
You can define number ranges for each company code. Thus, each company code can use the same number interval.
You can define number range intervals as year-specific.
You define number ranges in the system separately for master records and documents. You can therefore use the same
number range keys for both master records and documents.
In the Financial Accounting (FI) component, you can also define alphanumeric number ranges. In this case, however,
the document numbers can only be assigned externally.
It is advisable to select year-specific number ranges. You therefore only need smaller intervals and can store the
document numbers separately according to fiscal years. You therefore avoid documents from the old and New Year
alternating in January.
Since documents may be kept in the system for an indefinite amount of time, you need to define intervals that are large
enough to handle this factor.
To do this, you need to determine the volume of documents created each year for document types that use the same
number range.
Multiply the number of documents by the number of years the system can retain a document for. This gives you the
required interval capacity.

Chart of Account
Chart of Accounts
The chart of accounts list is a directory of all charts of accounts that can be used in a client. This is a list of all G/L
accounts used by one or several company codes.
For each G/L account, the chart of accounts contains the account number, account name, and the information that
controls how an account functions and how a G/L account is created in a company code.You have to assign a chart of
accounts to each company code. This chart of accounts is the operating chart of accounts and is used for the daily
postings in this company code.
You have the following options when using multiple company codes:
You can use the same chart of accounts for all company codes
If the company codes all have the same requirements for the chart of accounts set up, assign all of the individual
company codes to the same chart of accounts. This could be the case if all company codes are in the same country.
In addition to the operating chart of accounts, you can use two additional charts of accounts
If the individual company codes need different charts of accounts, you can assign up to two charts of accounts in
addition to the operating chart of accounts. This could be the case if company codes lie in multiple countries.
The use of different charts of accounts has no effect on the balance sheet and profit and loss statement. When creating
the balance sheet or the profit and loss statement, you can choose whether to balance the company codes which use
different charts of accounts together or separately.
Structure
Charts of accounts can have three different functions in the system:
The operating chart of accounts is shared by Financial Accounting as well as Controlling. The accounts in a chart of
accounts can be both expense or revenue accounts in Financial Accounting and cost or revenue elements in
cost/revenue accounting.
G/L account master data in the chart of accounts area contains information about the G/L account that is valid for all
company codes. The chart of accounts area also contains data that controls how a G/L account is created in the
company code-specific area.
To make certain that company codes using the same chart of accounts can also use the same G/L accounts, a master
record is created for the G/L account in the chart of accounts and in the company code-specific areas.
The following information is contained in the chart of accounts area of a G/L account master record.
• The chart of accounts
• The account number and account name (short and long text)
• The indicator that specifies whether the account is a balance sheet account or an P&L statement account.
At the start of a new fiscal year, the balance of a balance sheet account is carried forward to itself. With P&L statement
accounts, you must specify the account to which the profit or loss is carried forward at the end of a fiscal year.

With the account group, you group similar accounts together and control the creating and changing of master records.

The account number interval in which the account number must lie.
The screen layout for creating G/L accounts in the company code-specific area. This means that you can define
whether fields require an entry, may have an entry, or are hidden when creating or changing a master record in the
company code-specific area.
The chart of accounts is created and changed in one language, the maintenance language. This means that the names of
the G/L accounts are created and changed in the maintenance language. If the chart of accounts is used by multiple
company codes using varying languages, you can translate the account names into the languages needed.
You can define the length of the G/L account numbers. The maximum length is ten characters. Internally, the system
keeps the account numbers with a ten character length. The system pads purely numeric account numbers with zeroes
from the left, and alphanumeric account numbers from the right.

Define Account Group
The account group is a summary of accounts based on criteria that effects how master records are created.
When you create a G/L account in the chart of accounts area, you must specify an account group. Using the account
group, you can group the G/L accounts according to functional area. The account group also defines the set up when
creating a G/L account in the company code and chart of accounts. By defining the number interval and the screen
layout, you simplify G/L account creation by reducing the number of entry fields.
If you create a G/L account with this account group, you must select a number from this number interval. Account
number 131000 for G/L account petty cash would be rejected as incorrect since it does not fall within the number
interval of account group "Liquid funds". However, you could create this account using the account number 101000.
The number intervals for G/L account groups can overlap. As a result, for G/L accounts that you do not want to assign
to any special functional area, you can create a separate account group that has a number interval already contained in
a different account group.

PROFIT CENTER ACCOUNTING
A profit center is an organizational unit in accounting that reflects a management-oriented structure of the organization
for the purpose of internal control.
You can analyze operating results for profit centers using either the cost-of-sales or the period accounting approach.
By calculating the fixed capital as well, you can use your profit centers as investment centers.
Profit center Accounting at the profit center level is based on costs and revenues. These are assigned statistically by
multiple parallel updating to all logistical activities and other allocations of relevance for a profit center.
The exchange of goods and services between profit centers can be valuated using the same valuation approach as in
financial accounting or another approach
The master data of a profit center includes the name of the profit center, the controlling area it is assigned to, and the
profit center’s period of validity, as well as information about the person responsible for the profit center, the profit
center’s assignment to a node of the standard hierarchy, and data required for communication (address, telephone
number and so on).
Every profit center is assigned to the organizational unit controlling area. This assignment is necessary because Profit
Center Accounting displays values in G/L accounts.
The system transfers all the data to Profit Center Accounting together with the G/L account to which the data was
originally posted. You can only aggregate data of this structure by using the same
• chart of accounts
• fiscal year variant
• currency

Create Dummy Profit Center
The dummy profit center is the default profit center to which data is posted when the corresponding object has not
been assigned to a profit center.
You can find out which objects are not assigned to profit centers by analyzing the postings assigned to the profit
center. You can also assess or distribute data from the dummy profit center to the desired profit centers.
It may happen that some objects in your system are inadvertently left without an assignment to a profit center. In this
case, postings to accounts which are defined as revenue or cost elements are assigned to the dummy profit center of the
controlling area to which the object posted to belongs. This ensures that your internal and financial accounting data are
reconciled.
You should not assign data intentionally to your dummy profit center for the purpose of allocating it later. If desired,
define a separate "allocation profit center" for this purpose.

DOCUMENT SPLITTING
Document splitting allows you to display documents using a differentiated representation. In the representation, line
items are split according to selected dimensions. In this way, you can draw up complete financial statements for the
selected dimensions at any time.
Using the document splitting procedure, you can also create a segmented display of a (partial) balance sheet according
to a set of legal requirements (for example, IAS) or according to areas of responsibility.
In addition, you can allocate at the time of posting additional costs (such as realized or valuated exchange rate
differences) to the CO account assignment objects to which the costs relate. Assets can also be subsequently
capitalized at the time of posting.
Features
You can use the document splitting procedure to split up line items for selected dimensions (such as receivable lines by
profit center) or to effect a zero balance setting in the document for selected dimensions (such as segment). This
generates additional clearing lines in the document.
The system creates a reference to existing account assignments. These account assignments are used as the basis for
line items to be split. The system applies all account assignments that you have defined as document splitting
characteristics in Customizing.
If you have set the Zero Balance Setting indicator for the document splitting characteristic, the system then creates
any necessary clearing lines to ensure that the characteristics produce a balance of zero in each document.
Passive document splitting comprises all document splitting processes, for example, clearing processes that are
determined program-internal and that you cannot control with settings in Customizing. The processes of passive
document splitting are used for the processes of active document splitting and thus the splitting of the document itself.
By contrast, active document splitting comprises all processes used to split the document itself. You control active
document splitting using settings in Customizing.
In these processes, the system creates a relationship to existing account assignments after document entry. Let us
suppose you want to enter a document to clear two receivables. The account assignments of the line items of
receivables are transferred into the line item to be created. The line items can be split. The system applies all account
assignments that you have defined as document splitting characteristics in Customizing.
The system edits the following processes in passive document splitting depending on the business process to split the
document:
• Clearing
Receivable clearing items are created here that form the basis for the line items to be split
• Invoice Reference
A reference to one or more invoices is created here. The reference results from the document entry by entering the
invoice. The invoice in turn forms the basis for the line items to be split.
- 116 -
SAP FI/CO – FI Material MAHESH JAVAJEE
Version ECC 6.0
You can define document splitting characteristics for the general ledger as relevant for the balance sheet. To do this,
you set the Zero Balance Setting indicator for the characteristic. In this case, the system ensures that those
characteristics produce a balance of zero in each document by creating clearing lines. You can then create (partial)
balance sheets on these characteristics. If you have partner characteristics in the document, these are also filled. Partner
characteristics describe the sender and receiver relationships within a posting item.
If the partner characteristics are filled in the documents (for example, transfer of goods), then the document balance is
formed on the characteristics used in the balance sheet, and their partner characteristics. The clearing lines are created
in accordance with this balance since the partner assignments already exist.
If the partner characteristics are not filled in the documents then the system forms two-sided clearing lines according
to an amount procedure. The generated clearing lines then receive the partner assignment from the corresponding
clearing line.
In this sub function, the line items are split according to the settings in Customizing (the classification of the document
and the splitting rule assigned to the document).
Active document splitting comprises all processes used to split the document itself. You control active document
splitting using settings in Customizing.
By contrast, you cannot control passive document splitting. This is defined program-internal and comprises all other
document splitting processes such as clearing processes.
You can use document splitting only for documents that can be uniquely assigned to a business transaction.
Example:
You want to enter a payment and an invoice in a document. However, the document cannot be assigned uniquely to a
business transaction. The document cannot be posted.
You can also define splitting rules across company codes. The company code clearing lines get the account
assignments from the related company codes.
Example 1: Invoice
A vendor invoice is entered with the following items:
Posting
Account Segment Amount
Key
31 Payables 100.00-
40 Expense 0001 40.00
40 Expense 0002 60.00
Document splitting then creates the following document in the general ledger view:

Creation of G/L Account
Definition
G/L account master data in the chart of accounts area contains information about the G/L account that is valid for all
company codes. The chart of accounts area also contains data that controls how a G/L account is created in the
company code-specific area.
To make certain that company codes using the same chart of accounts can also use the same G/L accounts, a master
record is created for the G/L account in the chart of accounts and in the company code-specific areas.
Structure
The account number and account name (short and long text)
The indicator that specifies whether the account is a balance sheet account or an P&L statement account.
At the start of a new fiscal year, the balance of a balance sheet account is carried forward to itself. With P&L statement
accounts, you must specify the account to which the profit or loss is carried forward at the end of a fiscal year.
With the account group, you group similar accounts together and control the creating and changing of master records.
They control. The account number interval in which the account number must lie. The screen layout for creating G/L
accounts in the company code-specific area. This means that you can define whether fields require an entry, may have
an entry, or are hidden when creating or changing a master record in the company code-specific area.
When creating a G/L account in a company code, you can decide whether the transaction figures should only be kept in
the local currency for this account.
You have to set this indicator for clearing accounts you use to clear line items in various currencies with one local
currency amount and without posting any exchange rate differences that may occur.
• Do not set this indicator for A/P A/R reconciliation accounts.
The indicator is usually set for the following balance sheet accounts:
• Accounts without open item management in which no foreign currencies are managed
• You manage a clearing account for goods received and invoices received. This account is posted to menually.
You post the incoming invoices in an invoice currency and the goods received in all cases in the local
currency.
In tax accounts, you can specify the type of tax on sales/purchases (input or output tax) that can be posted to the
account.
In rare cases, it is useful to assign a certain tax code to an account. You enter the tax code in the master record in this
case. Only this tax code can be used when posting to this account. If a G/L account is not tax relevant, you may make
no specification in this field. For more information on sales tax and other taxes in your system, see the documentation
FI General Topics.
If you select this indicator, no tax code needs to be entered when posting to this account. If a tax code is entered, it is
checked according to the tax category for this account.
You use this indicator if taxable and non-taxable postings are to be entered to an account at the same time. In such a
case, you normally set up your own tax code to allow for non-taxable transactions. However, this is not possible - for
- 123 -
SAP FI/CO – FI Material MAHESH JAVAJEE
Version ECC 6.0
example - for tax entry with jurisdiction code, since no jurisdiction code can be specified for customers abroad. You
would then allow postings without tax codes for the corresponding expense or revenue accounts.
This indicator is not needed for invoice verification postings, since the account assignments are generally derived from
the purchase order. The indicator is therefore not checked by the system for these postings.
For items with no tax code, no tax information is created, and they are not contained in the tax report lists.
You use this field to indicate G/L accounts as being reconciliation accounts. For each sub ledger account, you must
keep at least one reconciliation account in the general ledger. When you post to an account in the sub ledger, the
system automatically posts to the corresponding reconciliation account.
The "Receivables from goods and services" account is an example of a reconciliation account for customers. Enter
Customer in the Reconciliation account for account type field. Enter a Vendor in this field for a vendor reconciliation
account.
Using the reconciliation account procedure, it is possible to create a balance sheet and a profit and loss statement at any
time, since the amounts posted to sub ledger accounts are also posted automatically in the general ledger.
During regular reconciliation, you check whether the balance of the reconciliation account matches the balance of the
corresponding sub ledger account.
You define reconciliation accounts by specifying in the G/L account master record the account type (such as fixed
assets, vendor or customer) for which the account is to be used. In this way, the account can only be assigned to
accounts in the corresponding sub ledger. You set the assignment of the sub ledger account to a reconciliation account
in the master record of the sub ledger account. You cannot post to reconciliation accounts menually .
You have created a reconciliation account "Receivables" for accounts receivable. You must specify the account
number of the reconciliation account in the master records of the customer accounts. The system checks whether the
named reconciliation account is permitted for the account type "customer".
If you set the "Open item management" indicator in the master record for an account, the line items in this account is
marked as open or cleared.
The balance of an account with open item management is equal to the balance of the open items. General ledger
accounts are kept with open item management if you need to check whether there is an offsetting posting for a given
business transaction.
You should use open item management for bank clearing accounts, clearing accounts for goods receipt/invoice receipt,
and salary clearing accounts.
If you set the "Line item display" indicator in the master record for an account, all line items that have been posted to
this account are displayed if they have not been archived.
You use line item display to display the document line items from the account. For line item display, the system lists
all the line items for an account.
For accounts with line item display, the system uses special indices to define the link between the account and the
document. For accounts with many transactions, a corresponding number of indices must be defined and read for line
item display. This means that when posting items to such accounts and displaying line items, additional storage space
and system time are required. Therefore, you should not use line item display for the following accounts:

In the standard system, you can balance each business area to zero by means of adjustment postings.
You can use the balance sheet adjustment to do this. When you post a document, the system checks the
business area balance and if this is not zero it marks this document for the balance sheet adjustment.
Program SAPF180A reads the marked documents, calculates the adjustment postings required, and
updates these in its own database tables. A second program, SAPF180, reads the adjustment posting
tables and on this basis posts the accounting documents required.
The adjustment postings are posted to a clearing account. This account fulfills the function of a receivable or
payable from a business area against all other business areas.
• The balance sheet adjustment generates summarized transfer postings to the clearing account.
• You cannot however run the balance sheet adjustment without first activating the business area
balance sheets for the company code in question.
• You can display the calculated adjustment postings for each individual document from the
document display.

Parking Documents
These documents are used to enter or store incomplete documents in SAP. These documents can be complete or
checked and then post at a later date. Parked document information won’t be update with any of G/L till is post again.
You can park data relating to customers, vendors, G/L accounts, and asset accounts. There is an additional fast entry
function for G/L accounts. For assets, you can only enter acquisitions. Furthermore, you can park tax information and
special sales, but you cannot park special sales for bills of exchange or down payments.
SAP provides two transactions for document parking: the standard transaction and the single screen transaction
(Enjoy).
You can also check the document for completeness. For example, the system checks whether the document balance is
zero and whether entries have been made in all required entry fields (such as posting key and account number).
The authorization checks performed for document parking are basically the same as those performed for standard
document entry and processing. The assignment of authorizations enables the system to differentiate between users
who can only park documents and those who can park and post documents.
No tolerance checks are performed. The system checks for erroneous entries. For example, you cannot enter an
undefined business area. You can use account assignment models when parking documents, but not reference
documents.

During document entry, you can have data from another document defaulted. The items from this reference document
can be:
• Changed
• Omitted
• Enhanced
In contrast to an accounting document, sample documents do not update transaction figures. They serve merely as
data sources for an accounting document. Their advantage is that you can change or enhance them. You therefore use a
sample document rather than an accounting document if you need a reference document for which you want to define
the layout yourself.
You use a sample document as a reference document in which assignment to more than one cost center is defined. If
you want to assign to other cost centers, you can change the values in the sample document. If you use an accounting
document as a reference document, you cannot make these changes because you also have to change the account
assignments relevant for accounting.
You enter sample documents with a special function to ensure that these documents cannot be accidentally posted as
accounting documents.
If you store a sample document, the system automatically assigns a number to this special document. To do this, the
system uses the number interval X2. This number range may only be used by the system. You cannot assign it to any
document type. You have to set up this number range in all the company codes where sample documents are used. You
have to use key X2 for this number range.

Recurring Entries
Definition
Periodically recurring entries posted by the recurring entries program based on recurring entry documents. This
process is comparable to the standing order you give to your bank to deduct your rent, premium payments, or loan
repayments.
Recurring entries are business transactions that are repeated regularly, such as rent or insurance. The following data
never changes in recurring entries:
• Posting key
• Account
• Amounts
You enter this recurring data in a recurring entry original document. This document does not update the transaction
figures. The recurring entry program uses it as a basis for creating accounting documents.
The system uses the recurring entry original document that you enter as a reference. It is not an accounting document
and therefore does not affect the account balance.
In the recurring entry document, you define when a posting is to be created with this document. You have two options
for scheduling. Postings can be made periodically or on a specific date:
• For periodic postings, specify the first and last day of execution, as well as the interval in months.
• If you want to specify certain dates, enter a run schedule in the recurring entry original document.
Recurring Document has separate number range that is “X1” to this number range we need to assign number interval to

TAX ON SALES AND PURCHASES
Tax is calculated from expenses or revenues, which is a base amount. A base amount may include cash
discount or not. If it includes it is a net base amount otherwise it is gross amount. It varies from country to
country. To determine the base amount, whether to include cash discount or not , set the indicator in basic
settings of taxes on sales/purchases.
You can use the SAP System to manage various types of tax according to the legal requirements of a
country or a region. The Financial Accounting components Accounts Receivable (FI-AR), Accounts Payable
(FI/AP), and General Ledger provides the following comprehensive tax functions:
Tax calculation: The system calculates tax amounts with or without cash discount based on the tax
base amount.
Tax posting: The system posts the tax amounts to defined tax accounts.
Adjustments: The system corrects tax amounts, in the case of cash discount or other deductions, for
example.
Tax reporting: You can use the system to create tax returns.
Taxes on sales and purchases are levied on every sales transaction in accordance with the principles of
VAT. This applies to input and output tax, for example.
Input tax is calculated using the net invoice amount and is charged by the vendor.
Output tax is calculated using the net price of products and is charged to the customer.
Companies can offset input tax against output tax, paying the balance to the tax authorities. Tax authorities
can set a nondeductible portion for input tax which cannot then be claimed from the tax authorities.
The Accounts Receivable, Accounts Payable, and General Ledger application components support the
calculation and posting of tax as follows:
• A tax adjustment can be performed automatically, if required, for cash discount postings and other
deductions
These transactions are controlled using Customizing, whereby the following specifications need to be made:
• To determine the tax amount, the system calculates a base amount, the composition of which varies
from country to country. You determine whether the base amount for tax calculation is to include the
specified cash discount amount. This information must be defined for each company code.
• To enter and determine taxes automatically, a tax code is required, which will include the tax rate
prescribed by law.
• The tax amount is generally posted automatically. For posting, specify the tax accounts to which the
individual taxes are to be posted.
• In a G/L account master record, you can specify whether the account is a tax account, and if so, which
tax type (input tax or output tax) can be posted to the account. For all other G/L accounts, you can use
the master record to specify a tax rate and a tax type, or specify that it is not tax-relevant.
NOTE: in India the taxes or INPUT TAX (Tax on purchases), OUTPUT TAX (Tax on sales)

INPUT TAX
You determine the calculation type for a condition type in Customizing. This determines how the system
calculates prices, taxes, discounts and surcharges for a condition. When setting up condition records, you
can enter a different calculation type than the one in Customizing. At present all available calculation types
are permitted. The field ‘Calculation type’ can however not be accessed if this field is left empty. After the
data release has been printed, if the field has not been completed manually, the proposal is automatically
taken from Customizing. After this it is no longer possible to make manual changes.
If you use different calculation types for what are otherwise the same conditions (for example, percentage,
as a fixed amount or quantity-dependent), you do not have to define different condition types in
Customizing. You can set a different calculation type when maintaining the individual condition records.
The standard system includes, among many others, the following predefined condition types:
What calculation the system carries out in that step depends on the following control indicators:
• Access sequences
• Condition class
• Calculation type
• Condition category
- 225 -
SAP FI/CO – FI Material MURAD J MEHTA
Version ECC 6.0
Access Sequences: An access sequence is a search strategy that the system uses to find valid data for a
particular condition type. It determines the sequence in which the system searches for data. The access
sequence consists of one or more accesses. The sequence of the accesses establishes which condition
records have priority over others. The accesses tell the system where to look first, second, and so on, until it
finds a valid condition record. You specify an access sequence for each condition type for which you create
condition records.
The access sequence enables the system to access the data records in a particular sequence until it finds a
valid price or value
Condition class: This is Preliminary structure of condition types. It determines whether condition type is
Discount or surcharge, Taxes, Prices Etc.
Calculation type: Determines how the system calculates prices, discounts, or surcharges in a condition.
For example, the system can calculate a price as a fixed amount or as a percentage based on quantity,
volume, or weight. The calculation type can be set when generating new condition records. If this does not
happen, the calculation type maintained here is valid for the condition record.
Condition category: A classification of conditions according to pre-defined categories (for example, all
conditions that relate to freight costs).

A calculation procedure is defined for each country, each containing the specifications required to calculate
and post tax on sales/purchases. Each calculation procedure contains several tax types, which are called
condition types in the procedure.
The system defaults condition types when you define a tax code. The condition type (such as input or output
tax) specifies the base amount on which the tax is calculated and the account key that is used to post the
tax. The specifications necessary for calculating and posting tax have been defined for the condition type
and account key.
The calculation procedure determines the amount on which the individual condition types are calculated.
This can be the base amount (total of expense and revenue items) or a subtotal. Incoming acquisition tax,
for example, is not calculated based on the expense or revenue items, but on the tax amount for outgoing
acquisition tax. The column Fr.level determines the amount on which tax is calculated.

Tax Type: It indicates whether this Tax Code is Input tax or Output Tax.You use the tax type to specify
whether the tax is an input tax or output tax. The system uses the tax type to check that you are posting to
an account with an allowed code. An error message is output if necessary. This happens, for example, if
you enter a tax code for input tax when posting to a customer account for which only output tax codes are
allowed. For every individual tax type, there are country-specific definitions for whether the tax amount fields
and the fields for the percentage specifications are ready for input.
CheckID: Indicator which determines that an error message should be issued if the tax amount is not
correct. If the indicator is not set, a warning message appears in place of the error message. The check indicator
determines that if the tax amount is not correct, the error must be corrected. This means that you can prevent users
from posting incorrect amounts of output tax. If you do not set a check indicator, the system issues a warning in the
case of a different tax amount; a correction does not have to be made. This is necessary for input tax postings, since the
tax amount on the incoming invoice is the amount users must enter when posting the invoice.

CASH JOURNAL
A double-entry compact journal managed in account form that records the postings for cash transactions.
By setting the cash balance at the beginning of the day, the cash journal shows the cash balance at any time by adding
the cash receipts and deducting the cash expenses. The cash journal also serves as a basis for entries in the general
ledger and thereby represents the "Cash" G/L account.
The cash journal is a sub ledger of Bank Accounting. It is used to manage a company's cash transactions. The system
automatically calculates and displays the opening and closing balances, and the receipts and payments totals. You can
run several cash journals for each company code. You can also carry out postings to G/L accounts, as well as vendor
and customer accounts.
The cash journal is a single-screen transaction. This means that you can enter, display, and change cash journal
documents on one screen.
You can save cash journal entries locally in the cash journal. The system also calculates the balances. The cash journal
entries saved are then posted to the general ledger.
For a cash journal document, you can carry out CO account assignments, and have taxes, including withholding taxes,
calculated by the system with reference to business transactions, taking account of tax jurisdiction codes, for example.
You can also display the follow-on documents arising for the cash journal entries posted.
As well as defining cash journal business transactions in Customizing, you can also, if necessary, define a new
business transaction while you are making entries in the cash journal.
You can print all cash journal entries posted in the time period displayed. You select the print form in Customizing.
Printing receipts
You can print the cash journal entries saved. You select the print form in Customizing.
If you have the appropriate authorization, you can delete cash journal entries that have been saved.
You can display all the cash journal documents that have been deleted within a specific time period.
You can change the cash journal and the company code while you are processing entries.

Withholding Tax
Tax that is charged at the beginning of the payment flow in some countries. Usually, the party that is subject to tax
does not pay the withholding tax over to the tax authorities himself.
When a customer that is authorized to deduct withholding tax pays invoices from a vendor subject to withholding tax,
the customer reduces the payment amount by the withholding tax proportion. The customer then pays the tax withheld
directly to the appropriate tax authorities (see diagram).
Withholding Tax
An exception to this rule is self-withholding. The vendor subject to tax then has the right to pay the tax to the
authorities himself.
Use
To calculate, pay, and report the withholding tax, the SAP System provides two functions:
For each company code, you can decide whether you want to use classic or extended withholding tax. Since the
extended withholding tax option includes all the functions of classic withholding tax, SAP recommends the use of
extended withholding tax (see below: Table of Classic and Extended Withholding Tax Functions).
If you have previously used classic withholding tax, and now wish to change over to extended withholding tax, you
must first convert the withholding tax data in all the company codes affected.

Country Version India comes ready configured with all the settings you need to track and remit withholding taxes
under the following sections of the Income Tax Act, 1961:
· Payments to contractors and subcontractors (Section 194 C)
· Insurance commission (Section 194 D)
· Rent (Section 194 I)
· Fees for professional or technical services (Section 194 J)
· Interest other than interest on securities (Section 194 A) (only supported in the Extended Withholding Tax
solution)
Country Version India offers you two solutions for handling withholding tax (also known as tax deducted at source or
TDS). You can either use the Classic Withholding Tax solution or the Extended Withholding Tax solution.
Taxes withheld under each section are treated differently with regard to the time limits for remitting tax to the
authorities, providing the taxpayer with a withholding tax certificate, and filing an annual return. In addition, the
formats for the withholding tax certificates and the returns also differ.
The Income Tax Act requires you to calculate taxes as soon as you enter an invoice. However, if you make a down
payment to a vendor before you have received an invoice from it, you withhold tax on the down payment. Then, once
the invoice arrives, you clear the down payment against it.
When you prepare your annual returns, the act also requires you to make provisions for taxes on services received but
not yet invoiced.
Country Version India complements the generic Classic Withholding Tax and Extended Withholding Tax solutions
with additional functions that meet the needs of the Income Tax Act. These functions allow you to:
With extended withholding tax, you can process withholding tax from both the vendor and customer view.

SAP FI/CO – FI Material MURAD J MEHTA

In Accounts Payable, the vendor is the person subject to tax, and the company code is obligated to deduct withholding
tax and pay this over to the tax authorities on the vendor’s behalf. In Accounts Receivable, the company code itself is
subject to tax, and the customers that do business with this company code deduct withholding tax and pay this over to
the tax authorities on the company code’s behalf. In both cases, the business partner of the person/entity subject to tax
deducts the tax and pays it over to the tax authorities.
Withholding tax is calculated and posted to the appropriate withholding tax accounts at different stages, depending on
the legal requirements in each country. As a rule, withholding tax is posted at the same time that the payment is posted,
in other words the outgoing payment (Accounts Payable) or incoming payment (Accounts Receivable), is reduced by
the withholding tax amount.
The key concept in extended withholding tax is the distinction between withholding tax type and withholding tax code.
If a particular transaction requires more than one kind of withholding tax, this is covered in the SAP System by
defining more than one withholding tax type. When entering a line item, you can enter withholding tax data for each of
these withholding tax types.
• In some countries, such as Argentina and Italy, other kinds of posting are required for certain business
transactions. Instead of the payment amount being reduced by the withholding tax amount, the withholding
tax is posted as an offsetting entry to an expense account You make the relevant settings in the withholding
tax code.
• Where cleared items are reset, the clearing document is automatically reversed if it contains withholding tax
data. For withholding tax types with accumulation, the accumulation base amount is adjusted if the payment
document is reversed.
Using the Extended Withholding Tax solution, you can withhold and report tax under all sections of the Income Tax
Act listed in Withholding Tax.
Since a company may consist of more than one entity responsible for withholding taxes, each of which is identified by
a separate TAN, you use a separate SAP organizational unit to represent each entity, the section code.
Country Version India comes with sample customizing settings for all of the aforementioned sections of the Income
Tax Act. The settings include:
• Withholding tax types
• Withholding tax codes
• Official withholding tax keys, which represent the different sections of the Income Tax Act
• Recipient types, which represent the categorization of taxpayers into "companies" and "others," again, as per
the Income Tax Act You must also customize your own section codes.
Day-to-Day Activities
You are required to calculate taxes either when you enter an invoice or when you make any sort of payment,
whichever comes first. Since a full payment is seldom made before the invoice arrives, that means in effect that you
withhold taxes when you enter an invoice or a down payment.
When you enter a vendor invoice or make a down payment that is liable to withholding tax, the system automatically
creates line items for the appropriate taxes, including surcharges. Since different taxes need to be remitted on different
dates, depending on the section of the Income Tax Act, the system also calculates and records each line item's due date.
If you first make a down payment (and withhold tax on it) and then enter the vendor invoice later on, you have to clear
the invoice against the down payment so that you do not withhold tax on the same item twice.
As far as your receivables are concerned, you also enter withholding tax certificates sent to you by your customers, as
proof of tax that they have withheld on payments to you.
- 273 -
SAP FI/CO – FI Material MURAD J MEHTA
Version ECC 6.0
Periodic Processing
At the end of each period, you make provisions for taxes on services received.
The authorities in India require you to remit taxes following a specific procedure. First, you create a remittance challan
with a list of the withholding tax items that you are remitting. You then send the challan to the authorities, along with
the check. Once the check has been cashed, the bank sends you a bank challan to confirm the payment. You then enter
the bank challan in the system.
The system automatically tracks each withholding tax item's remittance challan and bank challan.
When you have remitted the tax, you can print out withholding tax certificates for all taxes that you have withheld,
using functions specific to Country Version India.
Before you create your annual returns, you can also check for any customers that have not yet sent you a withholding
tax certificate for tax that they have withheld from you.
Again, with receivables, if you make interest payments to your customers, you must also withhold tax on them as
appropriate.
In the above entry in credit side we have withholding tax line items like:
• TDS a/c
• Surcharge a/c
• Education Cess on TDS a/c

In one business transaction, several kinds of withholding tax may have to be withheld. The SAP System
uses withholding tax types to reflect this. Several withholding tax types can be defined in the system; one
or more can be assigned in the vendor master record.
The withholding tax type governs the way in which extended withholding tax is calculated and is defined at
country level. As far as the time of posting for withholding tax amounts is concerned, there are two different
categories of withholding tax types:
Withholding tax types classify different withholding taxes according to such features as:
Several withholding tax codes can be assigned to one withholding tax type.
withholding tax types for calculating tax at invoice posting and another one for calculating tax at payment posting. All
of the withholding tax types are customized so that certificate numbers are not assigned at this level. They are assigned
by the programs that you use for printing the withholding tax certificates instead.
When you have defined the withholding tax types, define the withholding tax codes and recipient types.
When you enter a document that is liable to tax, the system automatically applies the tax type and tax code appropriate
to that vendor or customer.
• General data
- 275 -
SAP FI/CO – FI Material MURAD J MEHTA
Version ECC 6.0
• Calculation
Define the details for calculating the withholding tax base amounts and the rounding rules for the withholding tax
amount.
You also determine whether the withholding tax amount is to be both calculated and posted or only calculated (the
latter is the case in France, for example).
• Base amount
Field Meaning
Net amount The withholding tax base amount is the line item net amount.
Modified net The withholding tax base amount is equal to line item net amount plus a number of specific tax
amount amounts. The processing keys for the tax amounts to be totaled have to be specified for this
withholding tax type in a separate activity in Customizing.
Gross amount The withholding tax base amount equals the line item gross amount.
Tax amount The withholding tax base amount equals the tax amount of the line item.
Modified tax The withholding tax base amount is equal to the total of certain specific tax amounts. The
amount processing keys for the tax amounts to be totaled have to be specified for this withholding tax
type in a separate activity in Customizing.
You can define dependencies between withholding tax types via the field’s reduced base amount or Inherit base. If the
field Reduce base is selected in a withholding tax type, the withholding tax base amount is reduced by the withholding
tax amount of the dependent type. Alternatively, you can select the field Inherit base. The withholding tax base amount
then corresponds to the withholding tax amount of the dependent type.
The final amount used for the withholding tax calculation is calculated by applying the proportion subject to tax
(defined in the withholding tax code) to the base amount defined here in the withholding tax type.
• Rounding rules
You have the following options for rounding withholding tax amounts:
• Accumulation type
Here you define whether withholding tax base amounts and withholding tax amounts should be accumulated for this
withholding tax type, and if so, for what period.
If the law permits withholding tax exempt amounts over a specific time period (for example, monthly, annually), the
amounts posted in this period must be retained. This ensures that withholding tax is posted as soon as the exempt
amount is exceeded. In the SAP System, this is reflected by accumulation. You can accumulate amounts for calendar
years, quarters, or months.
Since with accumulation, accumulated amounts are already included in the calculation of the withholding tax amounts
for the current payment in the period, the accumulation cannot be used for summation.
If you have activated accumulation for a withholding tax type, the accumulated withholding tax base amount in the
current period (month, quarter, year) is added to the withholding tax base amount of the line item for which the
withholding tax amount is to be calculated. The withholding tax amount is determined by applying the withholding tax
- 276 -

Version ECC 6.0
rate or formula (scale) to this total, and subtracting the withholding tax amount accumulated in the period concerned. A
formula is a series of staggered withholding tax rates valid for different withholding tax base amount intervals. The
current withholding tax base amount and the tax amount itself are added to the corresponding values in the
accumulation table. Accumulation is entered per customer/vendor account, withholding tax type, and withholding tax
code in the local currency of the company code concerned.
To prevent a withholding tax posting as soon as the accumulated withholding tax amount exceeds a defined maximum,
select the field Acc. w/tax to max.
• Control data
o Whether manually entering the withholding tax base amount or the withholding tax amount is permitted
during document entry
You can enter regional codes here. The regional code ensures that the withholding tax is reported and paid to the
relevant tax authorities.
Here you define whether you want to maintain minimum and maximum amounts at withholding tax type level or
withholding tax code level.

Define Section Codes
A system object that represents the organizational unit responsible for collecting and remitting withholding tax, as
identified by a TAN. Each company can have more than one TAN, so in the SAP system, a company code can also
have multiple section codes.
When you post a document with a withholding tax item (for example, a vendor invoice or a credit memo), enter the
section code in order to make sure that the tax item is assigned to the correct TAN.
In order to ensure that you always enter a section code, we recommend that you create a validation for this field.
When you print withholding tax certificates, each of your section codes can define its own forms, depending on which
format is required by the income tax office. The certificate supplied with the standard system also shows the address
data from the section code.
Each TAN holder files its own tax returns. When you prepare a TDS return, you enter the TAN holder’s section code
on the selection screen. The annual returns then show only the withholding tax items that are assigned to that section
code.

Define Withholding Tax Codes
You define the tax base and rate in the withholding tax code. You make the settings for each country and withholding
tax type. You can therefore define as many withholding tax codes as required for each withholding tax type.
Country Version India comes with a sample tax code for each of the sample withholding tax types provided. The basic-
rate withholding tax codes are set to 2%; the surcharge tax codes are set to 0.4%. For reporting purposes, assign each
withholding tax code to a withholding tax key.
• General data
Define the description of the withholding tax code, and where necessary, the official withholding tax key.
Official withholding tax keys are used on official forms when reporting taxes,
• Base amount
Define the portion to be taxed. This percentage rate is used to determine the final withholding tax base
amount and is applied to the withholding tax base amount calculated as a result of the setting in the withholding tax
type.
• Posting
Define a posting indicator. This can have one of the following values:
1 Normal posting The withholding tax amount is deducted from the vendor line item
amount (posting at invoice entry) or from the payment amount
(posting at time of payment), and the system creates a line item for
the withholding tax.
2 Offsetting entry to The withholding tax amount is multiplied by the factor 1/(1-p), where
G/L account/No p stands for the withholding tax rate of the withholding tax code. The
reduction in system creates two withholding tax line items with opposing
subledger debit/credit signs.
3 Offsetting entry to The system creates two withholding tax line items with opposing
G/L account: debit/credit signs.
• Calculation
Define the withholding tax rate or the information for using calculation scales (formulas).
For the withholding tax rate, you can enter either a percentage rate between 0 and 100, or you can enter a fraction.
The system then uses this rate to calculate the withholding tax amount from the withholding tax base amount.
If you set the indicator Withholding Tax Formulas, the system calculates the withholding tax amount from the
withholding tax base amount using one of the scales defined for this withholding tax type/code combination.
- 288 -

All calculations are made in the respective local currency. This means that you have to maintain the minimum and
maximum for the withholding tax amount, the minimum base amount, the withholding tax exempt base amount, and
the scales in the local currency of the company code.
• Reporting information
Where necessary, define the region, the provincial code, and the type of income.

If the withholding tax amount calculated is lower than the minimum amount you specify here, then the system
calculates the withholding tax amount as being zero.
If the withholding tax amount calculated is higher than the withholding tax maximum amount you specify here,
then the system uses this maximum amount in the withholding tax calculation.
If the withholding tax base amount is lower than the minimum base amount you specify here, then the system
calculates the withholding tax amount as being zero. If the withholding tax base amount exceeds the minimum base
amount specified here, the system uses the whole base amount to calculate the withholding tax (compare Withholding

For accumulation, the total accumulated base amount is checked against the minimum base amount or the withholding

Statement entry is usually a two-step process:
First, you enter the account line items in the system. Various tools are available to help you with this. You
can vary the row format for entering individual transactions.
In addition, the system supports individual account determination and checks data consistency.
The second step is to post the line items you have entered.

With the payment program you can process local and international payment transactions involving your customers and
vendors. With this program we can pay all vendor at a time(Who ever vendors you want to involve in payment
program)
Prerequisites
The Payment Methods, House Banks, and Forms you use must be defined or adapted before the payment run is
executed.
If the above-mentioned steps are to be carried out automatically, the payment program requires the following
information:
• Rules according to which it can determine the open items to be paid and, if expedient, group them together for
payment. For example, you can specify grace periods for incoming items, which are taken into consideration
when calculating the due date.
• Specifications for selecting the payee. You can enter an alternative payee in your customer/vendor's master
record or in the document itself.
• Rules used by the payment program to select the payment methods. You can specify payment methods via
your customer or vendor's master record or via the open items, or you can have the payment program select
them using specified rules.
• Rules used by the payment program to select the house bank from which the payment is made. House banks
are banks where your company (company code) maintains accounts. You can specify a house bank in your
customer/vendor's master record or in the line item, or you can have the payment program select it using
specified rules.
• Specifications for automatic postings. The payment program requires information such as document types,
posting keys and accounts, in order to carry out the automatic postings.
Process Flow
1. It determines the open items to be paid and creates a proposal list. You can process the proposal list on-line.
Among other things, you can change payment methods or banks, block items, or cancel payment blocks.
2. The payment program carries out payment using the proposal list. The payment run includes only the open
items contained in the proposal list. The payment program posts documents and provides the data for the form
printout and for creating the data carriers, the payment advice notes and the payment summaries.
3. It uses the print program to print the forms and create the data carriers.

Set Up All Company Codes for Payment Transactions
In this activity, you make specifications for all company codes involved in payment transactions.
The sending company code is the company code that is known to the business partner.
When making cross-company code payments, you can specify the sending company code as well as the paying
company code for each company code. If the sending company code is different from the paying company code,
the system notes the sending company code in the payment transfer medium or payment advice. This note is
information for the business partner.
Furthermore, the sending company code affects how the system groups items from different company codes into one
payment. Items are only grouped into one payment for company codes with the same paying company
code and the same sending company code.
If the sending company code is not specified, the system automatically regards the paying company code as the
sending company code.

Set Up Payment Methods per Country for Payment Transactions
The payment method specifies the procedure, such as check, transfer or bill of exchange, by which payments are made.
The following payment methods are usual in Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable:
...
• You first make all the specifications that are required for each payment method in each country. This is
necessary for all the payment methods used by your organization in each country. If you have companies
(company codes) in Germany, France and the USA for example, you define the payment method "check" for
each country.
• You then define the payment methods you use for each company code. When in this configuration function,
you also specify the conditions of their use.
In this activity, you specify which payment methods are to be used in each country. You enter the following details for
the payment method:
• Characteristics for classifying payment method: Here you specify the type of payment method in question
(such as check or bank transfer) and any other features of that payment method (the payment method is used
for personnel payments, for example). When you select a payment method, only the characteristics that are
appropriate for that payment method are displayed. This means that you can only select fields that are relevant
for the selected payment method.
• Required entries in master record: Here you determine which specifications in the master record control
whether the payment method is used (such as bank details or collection authorization).
Note: If the required details have not been entered in the master record, the payment method cannot be used.
• Posting specifications: You specify how the payment is to be posted, for example (such as which document
type is to be used).
You also specify which currencies are to be permitted, dependent on the country and payment method. If you leave the
currency table blank, this means that all currencies are permitted.
Note: If the payment method only allows payments in local currency, the system ignores any currencies specified.
If you use the Payment Medium Workbench, read the documentation under Make Settings for Payment Medium
Formats from Payment Medium Workbench in the section Payment Media.

Note: You always have to specify a maximum amount, otherwise the payment method cannot be used. If you specify
the payment method in an open item, the payment program ignores the amounts you enter here.
• Specifications for grouping items for payment (such as single payment for marked items)
In this activity, you make settings that the payment program uses to select the banks or bank accounts from which
payment is to be made. You define the following:
Bank accounts:
For each house bank and payment method (and currency, if required), you specify which bank account is to be used for
payments.
Available amounts:
For each account at a house bank, you enter the amounts that are available for the payment run. You enter separate
amounts for incoming and outgoing payments. Specifying available amounts enables you to control which bank
account is to be used for payments. You can specify the amounts depending on the value date at the bank.
Value date:
You specify how many days elapse between the posting date of the payment run and the value date at the bank,
dependent on the payment method, bank account, payment amount, and currency. You can have the system determine

RUN PAYMENT PROGRAM
Before every payment run you must specify which payment methods may be used in the payment run. If a payment
method is specified in open items or in the master record of the customer/vendor and if that payment method is
permitted for that payment run, the payment program selects this payment method. The payment method in the open
items takes precedence over any payment method defined in the master record.
If several payment methods are specified in the master record and none in the item, then the payment program selects a
payment method. The program checks (in the sequence in which you entered them) whether each of the payment
methods you specified for the payment run can be used. To be able to be used, a payment method must satisfy the
following conditions (among others):
• The payment method must be specified in the customer/vendor master record or open items.
• The master record must contain the specifications needed for the payment method.
• For foreign payments, the payment program checks whether the payment method in question allows payments
to customer/vendors or banks located abroad.
• In the case of payments in foreign currency the payment method must be allowed for foreign currency
payments.
• The permissible minimum and maximum amounts must be adhered to for the payment amount.
• For payment, a bank permissible for the payment method under consideration is determined.
If one of the specified payment methods meets all the above conditions, this payment method is used. Otherwise, the
program carries out all the checks for the next payment method in the list you entered.

Dunning Procedures
If the business partners may fall behind on payments you can send them a payment reminder or a dunning notice to
remind them of their outstanding debts.
The SAP System allows you to dun business partners automatically. The system duns the open items from business
partner accounts in which the overdue items create a debit balance. The dunning program selects the overdue open
items, determines the dunning level of the account in question, and creates a dunning notice. It then saves the dunning
data determined for the items and accounts affected.
You can use the dunning program to dun both customers and vendors. It may be necessary to dun a vendor if he or she
has a debit balance as a result of a credit memo. If a customer is also a vendor, you can offset the account balances
against one another.
If you wish to use the automatic dunning procedure, you have to make settings in the following places before using the
system and while it is operational:
Once you have decided in which countries you wish to use the automatic dunning procedure, adjust your settings to
meet the country-specific business requirements. In the USA, for example, debtors are not usually dunned. In
Customizing, you can make company code-specific settings so that the fields for dunning are hidden for the company
code USA.
You use the following attributes to control the dunning program, and you can configure them according to the needs of
your company:
• · DUNNING PROCEDURE
•
The dunning procedure controls how dunning is carried out by the system. You can define as many dunning
procedures as you like.
•
• · DUNNING LEVEL
•
The dunning levels are calculated based on the number of days open items are in arrears. You can also have the
system calculate the dunning levels based on the dunning amount or a percentage paid (sales-related dunning level
determination).
•
You can determine more than one dunning level per dunning procedure.
•
• · DUNNING AREAS
•
A dunning area is an organizational unit within a company code used for the dunning process.
A dunning area can be a division or a sales organization. You assign a dunning area to an open item when you are
posting. You can dun items separately by dunning area.
•
The SAP System allows you to use either the automatic dunning program, which duns all overdue items in accordance
with your selection criteria, or, if required, you can dun individual customers or vendors
Payment deadline, interest on arrears, and You can enter a specific payment deadline in the dunning
dunning charges notice, as well as interest on arrears and dunning charges
- 370 -
SAP FI/CO – FI Material MURAD J MEHTA
Version ECC 6.0
(both calculated by the dunning program).
Dunning currency If all the open items in an account have been posted in the
same currency - either local currency or a foreign
currency, the dunning program uses this currency.
Otherwise, the dunning program uses the local currency
of the company code. The items are displayed in
document currency in the dunning notice, and the totals in
local and foreign currency.
Cross-company code dunning You can combine the overdue items for one customer or
vendor from several company codes in one dunning run,
and issue the items in one dunning notice.
Dunning for head office/branch If your customer or vendor has both a head office and
relationships branch offices, dunning notices are sent to the head office.
However, you can also send dunning notices to the branch
offices.
Dunning one-time accounts You can dun a one-time account just like any other
business partner account. All the items for a one-time
account that have the same address are grouped in one
dunning notice. The dunning date and level are updated in
the item, not in the account master record.
Dunning history The dunning history provides you with information on all
of the dunning runs you have executed and the dunning
notices you have sent (overdue items, dunning totals, and
so on). If required, you can also select by account type,
company code, and/or customer or vendor.

STEP 3:
Not post some credit sales invoices in past dates to customers to whom you want to be involved in this process.
The automatic dunning program runs according to the dunning process described below. It enables you to regularly
check your ledgers for overdue receivables, and then create payment reminders for these business partners.
Process Flow
The dunning process consists of several sub processes that must be carried out in a specific order (see figure below).
Start the dunning program and enter the company codes for the dunning run. You can restrict the selection to specific
accounts. During the dunning run, the dunning program determines the accounts and items that must be dunned, the
dunning level, and all other details required for dunning. The dunning program creates a dunning proposal list. The
dunning proposal list can be created as often as required since the dunning data for the item and in the account is not
updated until the dunning notices have been printed.
Only those accounts that contain a dunning procedure in the master record are included in the dunning run.
The print program prints the dunning notices. At the same time, the relevant dunning data is stored in the items and the
master record of the business partner.
The dunning forms and texts that you use must be defined or adapted before the dunning run is executed. You
determine the items and accounts to be dunned and the dunning texts when you configure the dunning program. This
involves defining rules governing how the program determines the data it needs.
During the dunning run, the dunning program determines all customer (and vendor) items and accounts for which
dunning notices can be issued. This is the basis of the dunning proposal.
The dunning proposal is output in the form of a list that contains all items and accounts for which dunning notices can
be issued (that is, they are overdue). The list is sorted according to account and dunning level.
Make sure that you have made the settings for the following features:
• Dunning procedure
• Company code data
• Dunning data in the customer master record (or vendor master record)
• Blocking of open items (if required)
• Dunning parameters
You control the dunning program via the settings you make for the dunning procedure. Further control can be
exercised via the settings you make in the customer or vendor master record, via the open items, and by the parameters
for the dunning run.
One of the factors these specifications determine is which company codes are dunned.
· Dunning Procedure
This contains the most important specifications for controlling dunning. These include the dunning frequency, the
dunning levels, and the grace days for the due date determination.
In the master record, you specify which dunning procedure should be used for that account. The dunning program
stores the date of the last dunning run and the dunning level in the master record. If an account is not to be dunned,
enter a dunning block.
· Open Items
You can block items from being dunned, or specify that an item is only to be dunned up to a certain dunning level. The
dunning program notes the date of the last dunning run for the item and the dunning level.
- 379 -
SAP FI/CO – FI Material MURAD J MEHTA
Version ECC 6.0
These include the company codes and accounts that are to be checked during the dunning run, and the posting date up
to which documents should be taken into account.
The automatic dunning program uses these criteria to check the items and accounts for the following:
The dunning program duns open items in customer and vendor accounts if the overdue items result in a debit balance.
When you configure the dunning program, you can specify additional criteria for determining whether accounts or
their open items are to be dunned.
You make the most important specifications via the dunning procedure. You define this procedure with a four
character alphanumeric key. It determines:
· The dunning frequency and/or the dunning interval with which accounts are dunned.
· The grace days and the minimum numbers of days in arrears for the purposes of determining whether the open
items and accounts should be dunned. This data is used only to determine the due date of the open items and whether
an account should be dunned.
· The number of dunning levels. For each dunning level, you determine the number of days a line item must be in
arrears to be assigned a particular dunning level. This dunning level then determines the wording of the dunning
notice.
· The transactions to be dunned. You can select whether standard and/or special G/L transactions are dunned with the
same procedure. Examples of special G/L transactions are payment requests, bill of exchange payment requests, down
payments, and down payment requests. Bill of exchange payment requests are used in Spain, France, and Italy.
You can set up one or more dunning procedures. Several procedures are necessary if you want to dun accounts
differently according to the above mentioned criteria.
You specify which procedure is used for an account in the master record of the account concerned. Enter this
procedure in the company code-specific area.
Although you never send more than one payment reminder to certain of your customers, you send up to three different
dunning notices to all other customers. As a result, you define two dunning procedures: A single-level procedure and a
3-level procedure. Enter the single level dunning procedure in the master records of customers who should receive
only one payment reminder. Assign the 3-level dunning procedure to all other customers.

8. What is chart of account and how many charts of accounts can be assigned to a company?
Ans: Chart of account is a list of all G/L accounts used by one or several company codes. For each G/L
account, the chart of accounts contains the account number, account name, and the information that controls
how an account functions and how a G/L account is created in a Company code. You have to assign a chart
of accounts to each company code. This chart of accounts is the Operating chart of accounts and is used for
the daily postings in this company code.
You have the following options when using multiple company codes. You can use the same chart of
accounts for all company codes If the company codes all have the same requirements for the chart of
accounts set up, assign all of the individual company codes to the same chart of accounts. This could be the
case if all company codes are in the same country. In addition to the operating chart of accounts, you can
use two additional charts of accounts If the individual company codes need different charts of accounts, you
can assign up to two charts of accounts in addition to the operating chart of accounts. This could be the case
if company codes lie in multiple countries. The use of different charts of accounts has no effect on the
balance sheet and profit and loss statement. When creating the balance sheet or the profit and loss statement,
you can choose whether to balance the co! mpany codes which use different charts of accounts together or
separately.
Ans: Account group determines which fields you can configure on the G/L master record. It is necessary to
have at least two one for B/S and another one for P&L a/c. It controls the Number ranges of GL A/C. The
status of fields of the master record of GL belongs to company code area.
12) What is reconciliation account; can you directly enter documents in that a/c?
Ans: When you p! ost items to a subsidiary ledger, the system automatically posts the same data to the
general ledger. Each subsidiary ledger has one or more reconciliation accounts in the general ledger.We
can't use reconciliation account for direct postings.
13) How do you control field status of GL master records and from where do you control!
Ans:
• COA Segment
• A/C group
• Nature of account
• Short text
- 451 -

• Tax
• Reconciliation a/c for a/c type
• OIM,LID,FSG.
15) What does Field status group assigned to a GL master record controls?
Ans: It controls the account assignments that are made to the account. Specifically the field status group
controls whether postings to cost centers, internal orders, profitability segments and so on are required, not
allowed (suppressed), or optional.
16) What is Country and operational chart of account? Why do you use group chart of account?
18) What is open line item management? What do you mean by clearing open line items?
Ans: Open item management is further reconciliation function. OIM allows you to display the open and
cleared items and amounts in an account. OIM should be used if an offsetting entry is made for every line
item posted in the account. The a/c is reconciled and cleared against another account. Ex. Salary clearing
account and GR/IR Clearing account.
Ans: Residual payment it clears original invoice with incoming amount and create new line item for
remaining outstanding amount. Partial payment it leaves the original invoice amount and creates
new line item for incoming amount.
Ans: Internal Number Ranges: Doc. No will be provided by the system automatically! in serial order
allotting the next available progressive number. The number must be in numerical. External Number ranges:
Doc. No will be given manually by the end user. System will not lock no automatically in this case. User
can pick the number randomly. Number may be an alpha numeric.
21.Whether any FI document will be created during PO(Purchase order)? If pl mention the entry
also?

22. What factors differentiates from one dunning level and other dunning level.
Ans: The most important thing that differentiates the dunning levels are the dunning texts. The dunning text
defines the urgency of the dunning notice. The other things can be the dunning charges, minimum &
maximum amounts etc.
23. APP There will be many banks in a house bank. If the payment should be maid from particular
bank GL account. Where it is configured?
Ans: There can be several accounts in the same house bank. We should assign the GL accounts exclusively
at the time of creating the Bank master data and the bank accounts. Accordingly we can do the bank
determination in FBZP for the individual banks and the corresponding sub accounts. Transaction code for
Defining bank : FI12.
Ans: The Typical SAP landscape looks something like figure 1.4 below:
i. Movement types:
Classification key indicating the type of material movement (for example, goods receipt, goods issue,
physical stock transfer). The movement type enables the system to find predefined posting
rules determining how the accounts of the financial accounting
system (stock and consumption accounts) are to be posted and how the
stock fields in the material master record are to be updated.
Tr Code: FBZP
Recurring Entries:
A periodically recurring posting made by the recurring entry program on the basis of recurring entry
original documents. The procedure is comparable with a standing order by which banks are authorized to
debit rent payments, payment contributions or loan repayments.
Sample Documents:
Special type of reference document. Data from this document is used to create default entries on the
accounting document entry screen. Unlike an accounting document, a sample document does not update
transaction figures but merely serves as a data source for an accounting document.
29. Where to assign activity type in cost centers? OR how to link cost centers & activity types?
There is no direct assignment. You plan the output for a cost center first in kp26. Then you've to plan the
value of that cost center which you budget for a period in kp06. Planned Activity expenditure / Planned
Actvty qty gives yoa planned act rate which you can use to valuate your activity confirmations in mfg ordrs.
You can also define your own prices,but you have to run the price
revaluation if you want to revaluate your actual activity prices.
30. For stat. key figure what is the significance of sender & receiver cost elements & cost centers?
Stat key fig are not real account assignments. In simple traditional terms it is the base to allocate or define
proportions with which the cost is allocated. SKFs are used to calculate the debit on a receiver object. These
values can be used for assessing common costs which are used by all the other cost centers. How SKF
works .. Kindly give me T Codes Also.
You create & plan SKF. Create using KK01 & PLAN the parameters of SKF in KP46

Ans: it is nothing but Road Map - five phases like, Project Preparation, Blue print, Realisation, Final
preparation and Go-livesupport.
32: In GL master we have a option "Balance in local currency" and "Account currency".What does
it mean?
Ans: Account currency is that the GL account in which currency do you want to maintain. if you decided
that you want maintain in company code currency, you can post any currency in that account. If not, you
want to maintain separate currency for that GL then exchange rate difference will come because the
conversion rate. Balance in local currency - some GL account can't be maintain on open item basis and can't
in foreign currency like clearing account and discount account etc., in such case you can assign this
indicator to show the balance in local currency.
33. In movement type(MM), what is value & quantity string I know it updates values and quantities
in GL with mix of valuvation class, transaction key modifier and GL A/c. But how does it work when
doing a mvt type?
Ans: Basically, the system does not know which GL has to be updated with what. here, we are giving a
direction to the system to update the data. What you said is correct, the system will update the value and qty
in the material master. You would have seen some more fields also, like Movement indicator, consumption,
value string and transaction event key etc.,
While creating a PO, the system will take the Movement type as a base, with MT, it will identify the
MI(movement indicator - used to define whether it is goods movement for production order, purchase
order, delivery note etc), and it will identify the consumption,( like it is assets, or consumption or sales
order) and it will identify the value string ( it is must to assigned to movement type, through allocation of
value string to movement type, system will automatically identify the GL ) and it will post the entry
(dr/cr)in the GL based on the transaction and event key figure which is used to determine the debit and
credit entry of a GL

78. Whether one group chart of account can be assigned to 2 Operational charts. For Eg. INTA and
INTB is being used by group of company as OCA. Whether GCA GRP can be assigned to INTA and
INTB?
75A). Company is an organizational unit which is generally used in the legal consolidation to roll up
financial statements of several company codes. A company can include one or more company codes. If
we are going for Consolidation , we need to enter the 6 character alphanumeric company identifier that
relates to this company code. Company Codes within a Company must use the same chart of accounts and
fiscal year. And for consolidation purpose we use Group COA wherein we link the Operating COA thru
entering the GL account no. of the Group COA in the GL Account of the Operating COA.
76A). A financial statement version corresponds to the chart of accounts and wherein Individual
(operational) accounts are assigned to the corresponding FS item on the lowest level of this version.
But as for the rollup of Accounts is not possible in all the FSV which can be copied, n rather can update
manually n create multiple FSVs if necessary depending on the Financial Statements which are necessary
for the Organisation.
77A). All the Organizational units (Global Data) for a company code will b copied to new company code
upon using the copy function except for the transactional data.
78A). Yes, Group COA can be assigned i.e., the GL A/c.No. is linked to the GL Accounts of the both
Operating COA . That means Group COA consists of Unique set of Accounts which can be linked to
Op.COA –1 and Op.COA –2.
Ans: Q.No.75. In the SAP system, consolidation functions in financial accounting are based on companies.
A company can comprise one or more company codes. for example: Company A have 4 company codes
which is existing in different state and / or country. When Company A wants to consolidated the accounts, it
will give the common list of accounts which in turn called group chart of
accounts. Group chart of account is used to define/ list the GL account uniformly for all company codes.
Ans: Q.No.76. In SAP R/3 system, will allow only one financial statement version for single COA which
you need to assign the same while copying the COA. T.code OBY7
Ans: Q.No.77. When you want to create FYV, PPV, COA etc for new company code which is as same as
existing company code, then you can copy all the information from the source company code to the target
company else whatever is required as per the new company code requirement you can only copy the same,
rest you can create as per the requirement. for example Fiscal year for new company code may be
shortented fiscal year which is differ from the existing company code. In this case, fiscal year for new
company code you have to create and assign it to company code.
Ans: Q.No.78. Operational chart of accounts is something differ from the Group chart of accounts but
Group chart of account can be assigned to Operating chart of account 1 and 2 through GL account no.
Operating chart of accounts: The operating chart of accounts contains the GL accounts that you use for
posting in your company code during daily activities. Financial accounting and controlling both use this
chart of accounts. You have to assign an operating chart of account to a company code. Group chart of
accounts: The group chart of accounts contains the GL accounts that are used by the entire corporate group.
This allows the company to provide reports for the entire corporate group.

80.How do you change the "Input tax code - Assets without input tax" value for a company in Asset
Accounting? Technically, how do you change field MWSKZVA field in table T093C? TIA.
You can used transaction 'OBCL'. Via customizing: Asset accounting -> Integration with general
ledger -> Assign input tax indicator for non-taxable acquisitions Require GR & IV report
You could try executing program RFWERE00, without postings. This is the same program which is used
for period end closing- regrouping of GR/IR...but for only a report do not create postings. or
May be transaction MB5S can help you out.
82.After we run the GL balance carry forward, you only manage to know the balance carry forward for the
retained profit account but you don't how much is actually post to the particular account. You
have try almost all of the standard report but still can't find any report that can show you the figure.
The balance carried forward is only a 'calculated' figure and not a 'posted' figure. The break-up of the
retained earnings figure is available when you run the balance carried forward report. You can also derive
the balance by selecting only the P&L Accounts for the relevant period. The net balance of these accounts
should equal the retained earnings account.
83.Based on 4.0B. Is it possible to configure the system for ACH payments or do we need to upgrade?
You can use RFFOUS_T to produce an ACH file. You may have to use user exits to write header and trailer
records. Please read documentation on this program and it is self-explanatory.
84.How to lock planning data in profit center accounting. In 4.6 b the transaction is S_ALR_87004395 -
Maintain Versions you can lock versions for each fiscal year
85.Is there a report which shows changes in vendor master data. Not only for one like MK04 or XK04 but
for a range like all changes in vendors per ccode. (should be similar to customer master transdaction OV51)
You can used report "RFKABL00". In the accounts payable reporting menu this program can be found via:
Accounts payable -> Adequacy and documentation -> Master data -> Display of vendor changes
(depending on your SAP version of course)

A company is the organizational unit used in the legal consolidation module to roll up financial statements
of several company codes. The Company Code is the smallest organizational ! unit for which a complete
self-contained set of accounts can be drawn up for purposes of external reporting.
88.How many chart of accounts can be attached to a company code?
One or more Operative Chart of Accounts can be assigned to a company code. A COA must be aasigned to
a company code. This COA is the operative COA and is used in both FI and CO. One Chart of Account can
be assigned to many Company codes i.e., Multiple company codes can either share the same or have
separate COA. But a company code (Country specific Company code or International Company code) can
have a country specific COA also along with Operative COA. The link between the regular COA and the
country COA appears in the alternate number field of the G/L master record. Eg: If a company's
subdidiaries are located in both US & Mexico. We need to configure 2 Company codes - one for US and
another for Mexico,for eg U100 and M100. The same way we create 2 COA's one for US & one for
Mexico, USCA and MXCA. Mexico has different govt
reporting requirements than the US so we will need to define a company code specific to Country Mexico
and also create a country specific COA to be used, in addition to normal COA. In tcode OBY6
(Comp Code Global Parameters) of CC M100 we define normal COA i.e.,USCA in Chart of Accounts field
and MXCA in Country Chart/Accts field.
Validations are used to check settings and return a message if the prerequisite check condition is met.
Substitutions are similar to validations; they actually replace and fill in field values behind the scenes
without the user's knowledge unlike validations that create on-screen msgs to the user.
The Controlling Area is the central organizational unit within CO module. It is representative of a contained
Cost Accounting envt where costs and revenues can be managed.
A controlling area may include one or more company codes which must use the same operative chart of
accounts as the controlling area. A Controlling Area can contain multiple company code assignments but a
single company code can be assigned to only one controlling area.
Fiscal Year is a period of 12 months and SAP provides 4 special periods to posting adjustment Entries.
Fiscal year determines posting periods. Posting periods are used to assign business transactions. Fiscal year
may be year dependent or year independent.
The Special periods in a fiscal year variant can be used for things like posting audit or tax adjustments to a
closed fiscal year.
Year Dependent: the financial year is same as calendar year. Starting from 1st Jan to 31st Dec (where
posting periods and the calendar months are equal) Year Independent: the financial year is different from
calendar year Starting from 1st April to 31st March (where the posting period months are not equal to
calendar year months)
Shortened Fiscal Year: a financial year, which has less than 12 periods.

SAP FI/CO – FI Material MURAD J MEHTA
Version ECC 6.0
The Posting period variant controls which posting periods, both normal and special, are open for each
company code. It is possible to have a different posting period variant for each company code in
the organization. The posting period is independent of the fiscal year variant.
97.What are document types and what are they used for?
Document type is the identifier of differentt account transactions like SA for G/L,AA for Asset Accounting
etc.The doc. Types controls things like type of the account that can be posted to, the number range assigned
to it, and required doc header fields.
Tolerance group stores Posting amount defaults. Tolerance groups are assigned to User ID's that ensures
only authorized persons can make postings.
99.What are posting keys? State the purpose of defining posting keys?
Posting keys determine whether a line item entry is a debit or a credit as well as the possible field status for
the transaction. Posting keys are SAP delivered. If u want changes like making additional fields optional on
payment type posting keys then the best possible action is to copy the posting key that needs to be modified
and then modify it.
Field status groups control the additional account assignments and other fields that can be posted at the line
item level for a G/L account.
