1. Client TR CODE SCC4

A client is the organizational and legal entity in the SAP system at the top of the organizational unit hierarchy.
Organizational, master, and transactional data are maintained on the client level. The main objective of the client is to
keep this data completely isolated from the other clients. The master and transactional data in a client are only visible
within that client.

Client
– Development – Training/education
– Quality – Demo
– Production – SAP reference

2. Define Company TR Code OX15

Company: the company is generally used to depict the legal entity per the local commercial law
and for intercompany transaction posting. A company’s financial statements are often used to form
the basis of consolidated financial statements, which you would use in the group reporting solution.
All the company codes assigned to a company must use the same chart of accounts and fiscal year,
but typically a separate company is created and assigned to each company code.

3. Define Company Code TR Code OX02

Company Code: A company code is the most fundamental organizational unit for financial
accounting in the SAP S/4HANA system. It represents the legal entity for which a complete, self-
contained set of accounts can be created. This includes both accounts needed for the entry of all
posting transactions and all items for legally required financial statements (e.g., the balance sheet
and the profit and loss [P&L] statement) for the local authorities.

Functional Area classifies the expenses of an organization by function, such as administration, sales
and distribution, marketing, production, research and development (R&D), and so on.. When
defining a functional area, you enter a four-character alphanumeric key and the name of the
functional area. This is created at Client level, So every company code of within client use it.

05. Define and Assign Credit Control Area TR Code OB45

This organizational unit represents the area in which customer credit is awarded and monitored. The
same area can be assigned to several company codes if credit control is performed similarly across
multiple company codes. In SAP S/4HANA, credit control areas are linked to credit segments
maintained in the SAP Credit Management. Credit segments are required for determining credit
limits.

When making changes to documents, you cannot change the credit control area.

07. Define Chart of Accounts TR Code OB13

Chart of accounts: This is a list of all general ledger used by one or several company code.

Operational chart of accounts: This required chart of accounts contains the accounts used for
transactions and is assigned to the company code in the global parameters.

Country or alternative chart of accounts: This optional chart of accounts contains accounts that
map one to one to the operational accounts and is usually used to report according to local legal
standards. This chart of accounts is used when issuing financial statements to country authorities.
This is also assigned to the company code in the global parameters.

Group chart of accounts: This optional chart of accounts contains the accounts used on the group
level. You can assign many operational accounts to a single group account, but not the other way
around. In other words, you generally have fewer accounts in the group chart of accounts than the
operational chart of accounts. The group chart of accounts is assigned to the operational chart of
Page 6 SAP FICO Vimal Shah (+917016601600)

accounts, not the company code. When the group chart of accounts is used, each operational
account must be assigned to a group account.

records are created.

The account group of an account determines the fields available for entry in the company code
segment of the G/L account and defines the number range an G/L account can be created in.

The field status can be adjusted in the following ways: (Priority Highest to Lowest)

There are 4 account type given in SAP S/4 HANA and they are by default and must be used while
creation of general ledger account only in S/4 HANA.

1. Balance sheet account: This account is for any account that isn’t a P&L account.

2. Primary costs or revenue: This account is for P&L accounts that are used to reflect normal
operating costs and revenues of the company. These accounts are integrated with
Controlling.

3. Secondary costs: This account is for accounts used for internal cost allocations in
Controlling.

4. Nonoperating expense or income: This account is for P&L accounts that reflect gains or
losses from activities that aren’t from the main businesses of the company, such as profit
from an asset sale or capital gains for a consulting firm. These aren’t integrated with
Controlling.

the same accounts as Opening Balances. This step is required to do at the end of the year.

But in SAP , it has made mandatory at the time of Implementation itself. The reason behind this is
Consultant will not be available at the time of Closing the books of accounts for the year. System
does not know which account balances to be transferred to "Surplus in Reserves & Surplus"
Account and which account balances to be carry forward to next year as opening balances of the
same account.

Fiscal Year Variant:

Variant defining the relationship between the calendar and fiscal year. The fiscal year variant specifies the
number of periods and special periods in a fiscal year and how the system is to determine the assigned
posting periods

- If Fiscal Year period is from April '19 to March '20, in SAP it is called as Fiscal Year 2019
- If Fiscal Year period is from July ‘19 to June ‘20, in SAP it is called as Fiscal Year 2019
- If Fiscal Year period is from Oct ‘19 to Sept ‘20, in SAP it is called as Fiscal Year 2020

Logic behind this is based on Number of Months covered in Next Calendar Year. If in next Calendar Year
Period is above 6 months , call it as Next Year , otherwise call with the same year.

SAP ECC

SAP S/4 HANA

You maintain intervals 1 & 2 in SAP ECC and 1, 2 & 3 in SAP S/4 HANA:

Interval 1 controls the normal operative periods, which are the posting periods that are open for daily
posting during the year.

Interval 2 controls the valuating (also known as special) periods, in which you enter the special periods you
can still post to for the previous year. Local regulations and corporate policy dictate until when and what kind
of posting to the previous year is allowed.

Interval 3 controls the Controlling-related postings, meaning those documents posted through controlling
applications and updating the general ledger (i.e., all Controlling applications in SAP S/4HANA). There is a
separate interval for this because controlling allocations and reposting usually are allowed for a while after
the financial accounting postings have stopped.

AuGr: Basis Consultant will create Authorization Group Say "X" and assign user ID's say Manager and
Dy.Manager of Accounts to this Group. Hence these 2 people only can access the screen and make

Segments are used as a dimension for reporting purposes. When you create a segment, you assign
an alphanumeric code up to 10 characters. Organizationally, segments are one level above profit
centers. Multiple profit centers can be assigned to the same segment. Segment reporting was
introduced to fulfil reporting requirements on financial statements for certain accounting principles
such as International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and US Generally Accepted
Accounting Principles (GAAP). During posting the segment will be derived from the profit center.

more like organizational units in accounting. A profit center rep-resents an area of responsibility
within a corporation for which you can make profit calculations; in other words, it has costs and
revenues that are directly or indirectly assignable to it. Profit centers typically represent an
organizational unit within the company. Profit centers are always assigned to a standard hierarchy.

customer invoice, vendor invoice payment, and so on. It also determines document storage and the
account to be posted. For example, the document type DR indicates a customer invoice posted to a
customer account. Below lists some of the important document types. The importance of the
document type is that it determines documents to be posted, the document storage type, and the
account type to be posted.

authorizations given to employees in the organization.

The advantage of using tolerances is that during posting, the system will automatically determine if
payment differences are within the acceptable limits you defined. If a payment difference is within
the payment difference limit, the system will accept the posting. If a payment difference posting
exceeds the specified limit, the system will reject the posting. Tolerances reduce potential posting
errors made by accounting clerks during document entry.

Note: Don’t give the tolerance groups in your individual systems. Null group permit all
users. If you mention the user group it allows the particular group only. For Practice
environment. It is advisable to process with null group.

document and per open items, you need to specify the following settings:

• The maximum amount per document the employee is permitted to post


• The maximum amount the employee can enter in the system per open item in customer/vendor
account item
• The maximum cash discount per line item that the employee is permitted to grant to a customer or
vendor
• The authorized permitted payment differences

during document posting.

• Amount per Open Item Account Item: This is the maximum amount per open item that the
employee can enter in the line item in a vendor/customer account. An employee can post only an
amount up to the specified amount made here per open item. The system will reject anything
