Calendar Year: It comprises of 12 months, which begins in the SAME year and ends in the SAME
year.
Non-Calendar Year: Non-Calendar Year comprises of 12 months but begins in the Current Year
(April) and ends in the Next Year(March).
I wanted to convert Non-Calendar Year like Calendar means, Non Calendar Year comprises of 2
years i.e., 2021 & 2022. Now I wanted to shift/convert 2022 to 2021. When I convert 2022 to 2021
then it becomes like Calendar year.
You consider in which year Majority of the months lies 2021 which contains 9 months. Now
observe in which year Less no of Months are available.
So you take 2021 as a base year because it contains majority of the months i.e., 9 months. So base
value is always 0
Scenario 1
I got money today (15/12/2021), am starting my business
December – 17 days How many days a year contains 365 days
January – 31 days 97 days is a less than a year so it is called Shortened FY

Total no of days 97 days
Scenario 2
I have go money on April 2nd A Year Contains 365 days

Mandatory. We are assigning Operational Chart of Accounts to the Company Code. Business
Transactions are posted at the Company Code level only.
You are going to pull the Financial Statement from Operational Chart of Accounts for issuing to the
External Authorities. Like Banks, Tax authorities, Legal Authorities and so on.
Country Specific Chart of Account: It is a 4 Character Variant. Defining Country Specific Chart of
Account is Optional. This Chart of Account is assigned to the Company Code.

have assigned to the Company code. Defining

Data
What is a Data?
Collection of Fields put t.ogether is called a Record. Multiple Records are called Data.
Master Data: It is a Permanent in Nature. Without creation of Master Data, you cannot post any
Transactional Data. As a Consultant, you are going to create Master Data at the time of
Implementation job.
In order to upload the balance from previous (ERP/Manual), all those balances needs to be uploaded
from previous ERP to SAP by the Consultant. Creation of Master Record is a one Time job.
For the Creation of Master Records, we need Basically Chart of Accounts which is nothing a List of GL
Accounts. When I Create Account Groups then only I can create GL Master Record into the
respective Account Groups. Without Account Groups, you cannot create a Master Record.
It is actually an End-User job
Transactional Data: You need to Post Data to Day Business Transactions. Without Master Data, we
cannot post any Transactional Data. Transactional Datas are posted by the End-Users.
When you post a transaction, you need to post a minimum of 2 line items.
I cannot post a Transaction either with Credit Side or with Debit side as a single line item.
When I post Debit and Credit side, they should balance and the total value should become 0, then
only you can post this 2 line items.
Why do you use Operational Chart of Accounts to Post the Transactional Data?
Because We extract the Data for Financial statements from Operational Chart of Accounts only.
Financial Statement means Profit & Loss and Balance Sheet Accounts.
FSP0(at Chart of Accounts Level): This Contains 3 Tabs: FS00(at Company Code Level):
1. Type/Description 1. Control Data
2. Key word/Translation 2. Create/Bank/Interest
3. Information at Chart of Account Level 3. Information at Company level
Reference Documents
I have an address already where I have gone. She does not know so am guiding to go to the
respective place, if am referring that should have been already existed. Referring to the Existing one
is called Reference.
I have document number already posted into the system. I want the same thing repeated then I can
refer to that Document No to post any number of times but with a slight change.
What are those changes? You are modifying the existing document according to your requirements.
Like what changes?
We are only human beings so we may commit an error while posting to avoid those errors or
repetitive work, we are using Template to avoid errors and to save timings.

Sample Document
Sample Document
This is the Special type of Document. This is used to post the Business Transactions which occur
frequently every day. Using the Sample Document we can reduce the posting burden on the users.
The sample document is a template for Original / Accounting Document. Sample documents do not
update any transaction figures. We have to define a Special Number Range for Sample documents.
X2 is the Number Range number key for Sample Documents. The following functions are available
for the sample documents.
1. Display
2. Change
3. Delete
Every time when you want to post the Sundry Expenses payment, all the information for each line
item is same except the amount. That is why what we do is to create one document in which you
debit sundry expenses account and you credit with cash account with some dummy amount. This is
called Sample Document. When you create a Sample document, it will not update the GL Accounts
balance because it is dummy business transaction.
Whenever Sundry Expenses incurred and whenever it has to be posted, the user will retrieve this
sample document from the database, he will just change the amount and post it. That is how the
burden of the end-user is reduced by not filling the text, business area and so on.
When the Sample documents are created, they do not update any GL Account balances, they are
just stored in the database. When the Actual Business Transactions are posted using the Sample
document as a reference then only the GL Account balances are updated.
Recurring Documents
Recurring means Re-occurring any number of times means repeating the same work or activity n of
times.
There are some Business Transactions which we post regularly at fixed intervals.
Example, Rent payment, Insurance payment, Payment of Term Loan instalment and payment of
Vehicle Loan.
In order to pay this type of transactions, we can use Recurring Document functionality.
For every Recurring Document, we should specify the First Run Date and the Last Run Date and
Interval for Posting.
When the Recurring Documents are created, they don’t update any GL Accounts.
We need to create a Number Range with X1.
Only when execute the Recurring Document, then only the respective GL Accounts get updated.
Reversal
Once the Entry is posted, you cannot delete in SAP. There is no option for Deletion.
Example, I wanted to post Rent Account say 1000. Every month my Rent is 1000
Entry will be
Office Expenses A/C Dr 1000 (40)
To Cash A/C 1000 (50)
Instead of posting to Rent A/C, by mistake posted against Office Expenses.
Individual Reversal
Reversal of a Reversed Entry
Mass Reversal
Cleared item Reversal
Individual Reversal: FB08 (100008)
You need to some configuration in IMG Screen for the Reversal. It is nothing, defining the Reason
for Reversal. It is a Mandatory to define the Reason. That reason can be configured in IMG Screen.
Reversal of a Reversed Entry (Reversing once again Reversed Document 100008), this document
number gets changed to 100009 = 100007(Original posted Document)
