3 Core Finance
This section describes how core finance processes are impacted by the activation of
the central payment functionality in SAP S/4HANA. It presents considerations that
must be considered before and after the activation of central payment.

3.1 Document Changes with Central Payment

When central payment is activated for a company code, some changes to documents
are possible in the source system, but other changes are only possible in the Central
Finance system.

Document changes that are normally allowed to be made on cleared items can also
be made to technically cleared items in the source system. Those changes will be rep—
licated to the Central Finance system.

Document changes that are normally done to open items can also be carried out to
those open items in the Central Finance system.

Figure 3.1 shows an open item that has been technically cleared.
