Where we have to define VAT Registration Number?
In Vendor Master XK02 and FK02, in Vendor Control. That is
in Tax Information area.
In vendor master XK02, in tax information area
it is defined in CIN tab
while creating general ledger in SAP FICO, we have to click for open item or line item, what is the
use if we click on open item and what extra report can we get in clicking open item.
if u select open item option we can see the incomplete/pending transactions that are not paid/completed it
shows the red symbol that the transaction amount is in due
if u r selected the openitem we are posting to the outstanding psyments its means not cleared items.
if u sellect open line items u can able to see pending invoice which is booked in system but not paid
based on that u can run a report of outsanding invoice in AP
Open items are the items which are due to be paid to the vendors of the particular company.
If you will select the open items, you will be able to pull the aging report, Workflow report (i.e where the
invoice is waiting for approval), parked report (how many invoices are parked and what is the reason),
Internal Control system Report (i.e. the report which will show you the details of invoice right from the
scanning to the payment) etc.
open item manament is type of reconsilation account in which we can see what are the open
items,cleared items and all items.open item account requires clearing .
If we click openitem account it will show the amount which we suppose to pay to vendor.

When dunning printout is taken in automatic Dunning Run. The SAP system update the highest Dunning
level in the account
when completing the dunning procedure,after that we will go to the customer master data and enter the
dnning procedure.
when completing the dunning procedure,after that we will go to the customer master data and enter the
dunning procedure.
The dunning procedure is updated in the correspondence tab of the customer master data after the
dunning print out is printed.
The details that are updated in the master data are
1)The dunning level
2)The lDunning date.
If a material has no material code in SAP, can you default the G/L account in Purchase order or it
has to be manually entered?.
If a material has no material code in SAP, we can still, default the G/L account with the help of material
groups. We can assign the valuation
class to a material group and then in FI-automatic posting, we can assign the relevant G/L account in the
Transaction event key. The
assignment of a valuation class to a material group enables the system to determine different G/L
accounts for the individual material groups.
What is SAP standard organisation structure?
SAP Standard organisation structure is based on client
requirement it will change for example.
Clent--->Operation Concern(Co-pa)--->Controlling
area(1:N)---> Company Codes(1:N)
Plant and Purchase organization,Sales Organization assing
the the Company code as per client requirement.
A Standard Organization Structure is a structure of the physical units of the company, where, the Cost
Centers, the Profit Centers, the Company Codes, etc. will be assigned.
An Organization Structure can be based on departments, positions, Cost Centers and Profit Centers, or
any other hierarchy in the company.
What are the Month End Closing Activities in Finance?

What is meant by a ?baseline date? in SAP AR and AP ?
The baseline date is the date from which the payment
terms (specified in IMG transaction OBB) apply
Usually this is the document date on the invoice but can also be the date of entry or posting date from the
ledger
Base line date is due date either to be paid or received,it is used in payment terms while creating
customer/vendor master creation
Base line date is to be paid/recd date, which is accepted by both companies on purchase order or sales
order.
Considering the base line dates, Fin.guys will prepare budget allocations for either receipts or payments.
Which is the payment term which actually gets defaulted when the transaction is posted for the
customer (accounting view or the sales view)?
The payment term in the accounting view of the customer master comes into picture if the transaction
originates from the FI module. If an FI invoice is posted (FB70) to the customer, then the payment terms
is defaulted from the accounting view of the customer master.
The payment term in the sales view of the customer master comes into picture if the transaction
originates from the SD module. A sales order is created in the SD module. The payment terms are
defaulted in the sales
order from the sales view of the customer master.
In Accounts Receivable, what?s the difference between the ?residual payment? and ?part
payment? methods of allocating cash ?
These are the two methods for allocating partial
payments from customers. As an example, lets say invoice A123 exists for 100$ and a customer pays
60$.With partial payment, the 60$ simply offsets the invoice leaving a remaining balance of 40$
With residual payment, invoice A123 is cleared for the full value 100$ and a new invoice line item is
booked for the remaining balance of 40$
Residual payment means it clears the original invoice and creates the new line item for remaining
outstanding amount. Partial payment means it leaves the original invoice and creates new line item for
incoming payment.
What is Valuation Class?
The Valuation Class in the Accounting 1 View in Material Master is the main link between Material Master
and Finance. This Valuation Class
along with the combination of the transaction keys (BSX,WRX,GBB,PRD ) defined above determine the
GL account during posting. We can group together different materials with similar properties by valuation
class. Eg Raw material,Finsihed Goods, Semi Finished
We can define the following assignments in customizing : All materials with same material type are
assigned to just one valuation
class. Different materials with the same material type can be assigned to different valuation classes.
Materials with different material types are assigned to a single valuation
class.
The following steps are usually performed during the payment run
Entering of parameters (company codes, payment
methods, vendor accounts etc) ? Proposal Scheduling ? the system proposes list of
invoices to be paid ? Payment booking ? the booking of the actual payments into the ledger
? Printing of payment forms (cheques etc)
Variations on the above may be found in different SAP customers, but the interviewer will be looking for
the basis steps above.
How are Capital Work in Progress and Assets accounted for in SAP?
Capital WIP is referred to as Assets under Construction in SAP and are represented by a specific Asset
class. Usually depreciation is not charged on Capital WIP.
All costs incurred on building a capital asset can be booked to an Internal Order and through the
settlement procedure can be posted onto
an Asset Under Construction. Subsequently on the actual readiness of the asset for commercial
production, the Asset Under Construction gets
capitalized to an actual asset.
Does the moving average price change in the material master during issue of the stock assuming
that the price control for the material is Moving Average?
The moving average price in the case of goods issue remains unchanged. Goods issue are always
valuated at the current moving average price. It
is only in goods receipt that the moving average price might change. A goods issue only reduces the total
quantity and the total value in relation
to the price and the moving price remains unchanged. Also read the next question to learn more about
this topic.
Is it possible to ensure that no capitalization be posted in the subsequent years?
Yes it is possible. You need to set it in the depreciation key configuration.
How do you configure check deposit?
The following are the steps for configuring check deposit:Step1: Create account symbols for the main bank and incoming check
account.
Step2: Assign accounts to account symbols
Step3: Create keys for posting rules
Step4: Define posting rules
Step5: Create business transactions and assign posting rule
Step6: Define variant for check deposit
How do you go about setting the FI MM account determination ?
FI MM settings are maintained in transaction code OBYC. Within these there are various transaction keys
to be maintained like BSX, WRX,
GBB, PRD etc. In each of these transaction keys you specify the GL accounts which gets automatically
passed at the time of entry.
Few examples could be: BSX- Stands for Inventory Posting Debit GBB-Standsfor Goods
Issue/Scrapping/delivery of goods etc PRD- Stands for Price Differences.
What is Valuation and Account assignment in SAP?
This is actually the link between Materials Management and Finance. The valuation in SAP can be at the
plant level or the company code level.
If you define valuation at the plant level then you can have different prices for the same material in the
various plants. If you keep it at the company code level you can have only price across all plants.
Valuation also involves the Price Control .Each material is assigned to a
material type in Materials Management and every material is valuated either in Moving Average Price or
Standard Price in SAP. These are the
two types of price control available.
What are the options in SAP when it comes to Fiscal years?
Fiscal year is nothing but the way financial data is stored in the system. SAP provides you with the
combination of 12 normal periods and also
four special periods. These periods are stored in what is called the fiscal year variant.
There are two types of Fiscal Year Variant
? Calendar Year ? e.g. Jan-Dec ? Year Dependent Fiscal Year .
How do you maintain multiple shift depreciation in asset master?
The following steps are needed to maintain multiple shift depreciation:
1. The variable depreciation portion as a percentage rate is to be maintained in the detail screen of the
depreciation area.
2. The multiple shift factor is to be maintained in the time dependent data in the asset master record. This
shift factor is multiplied by
the variable portion of ordinary depreciation.
Once you have done the above the SAP system calculates the total depreciation amount as follows:Depreciation amount = Fixed depreciation + (variable depreciation * shift factor)
How do you configure Electronic bank statement?
The steps for Electronic Bank Statement are the same except for couple
of more additional steps which you will see down below
Step1: Create account symbols for the main bank and the sub accounts
Step2: Assign accounts to account symbols
Step3: Create keys for posting rules
Step4: Define posting rules
Step5: Create transaction type
Step6: Assign external transaction type to posting rules
Step7: Assign Bank accounts to Transaction types
How does posting happen in MM (Materials Management) during special periods?
There is no posting which happens from MM in special periods. Special periods are only applicable for
the FI module. They are required for making any additional posting such as closing entries, provisions.
which happen during quarter end or year end.
What is a Account group and where is it used?
An Account group controls the data that needs to be entered at the time of creation of a master record.
Account groups exist for the definition of a GL account, Vendor and Customer master. It basically controls
the fields which pop up during master data creation in SAP.
Explain the importance of asset classes. Give examples?
The asset class is the main criterion for classifying assets. Every asset must be assigned to only one
asset class. Examples of asset class are Plant& Machinery, Furniture & Fixtures, Computers etc. The
asset class also contains the Gl accounts which are debited when any asset is
procured. It also contains the gl accounts for depreciation calculation,
scrapping etc
Whenever you create an asset master you need to mention the asset class for which you are creating the
required asset. In this manner
whenever any asset transaction happens the gl accounts attached to the asset class is automatically
picked up and the entry passed.
You can also specify certain control parameters and default values for depreciation calculation and other
master data in each asset class.
Goods delivered but invoice not received
Here the Goods receipt is made but no invoice has yet been received from the vendor. In such a
scenario GR/IR account will have a credit balance.
What are one-time vendors ?
In certain industries (especially where there are a high volume of cash transactions), it is not practical to
create new master records for every vendor trading partner. One-time vendors allow for a dummy vendor
code to be used on invoice entry and the information which is normally stored in the vendor master
(payment terms, address etc) , is keyed on the invoice itself.
What are correspondence types in AR/AP ?
Correspondence types are different outputs which can be printed and sent to your business partners
based around either customer vendor or GL information. Popular correspondence types include customer
statements, payment notices and line items lists. Within the most common AP/AR functions (such as
?Display vendor line items? below there is the option to generate
correspondence requests. At the end of the working day these can be printed together as a batch and
sent out.
If there are two company codes with different chart of accounts how can you consolidate their
activities?
In this case you either need to write an ABAP program or you need to implement the Special
Consolidation Module of SAP. If both the company
codes use the same chart of accounts then standard SAP reports give you the consolidated figure.
Is it possible to have depreciation calculated to the day?
Yes it is possible. You need to switch on the indicator ?Dep to the day? in the depreciation key
configuration.
Is it possible to have depreciation calculated to the day?
Yes it is possible. You need to switch on the indicator ?Dep to the day? in the depreciation key
configuration.
At what level is the FI-MM, FI-SD account determination settings?
They are at the chart of accounts level.
How can you link customer and vendor master records and what is the purpose of doing so ?
Answers:
On the customer master there is a field ?vendor? and likewise on the vendor master there is a field
?customer?. By entering these master data numbers, a link can be created between the AP/AR
subledgers for use in the payment program, dunning routine and the clearing of open items. For example
in the payment program, if a specific business partner is your vendor but also your customer, linking their
master records together will allow the open AR invoices to be offset against the outstanding AP invoices.
What are the master data pre-requisites for document clearing?
The Gl Account must be managed as an ?open item management? . This checkbox is there in the
General Ledger Master Record called Open Item
Management. It helps you to manage your accounts in terms of cleared and uncleared items. A typical
example would be GR/IR Account in SAP
(Goods Received/Invoice Received Account)
Explain the importance of the GR/IR clearing
What is Valuation Class?
This is actually the link between Materials Management and Finance. The valuation in SAP can be at the
plant level or the company code level.
If you define valuation at the plant level then you can have different prices for the same material in the
various plants. If you keep it at the company code level you can have only price across all plants.
Valuation also involves the Price Control .Each material is assigned to a
material type in Materials Management and every material is valuated either in Moving Average Price or
Standard Price in SAP. These are the
two types of price control available.
what is the intigration b/n fi-pp
The point of integration between FI-PP is Work centre. The
transaction code for the same is WRC1.
How do you change fiscal year in Asset Accounting?
??Run The fiscal year change program which would open new annual
value fields for each asset. i e next year
??The earliest you can start this program is in the last posting period of
the current year.
??You have to run the fiscal year change program for your whole
company code.
??You can only process a fiscal year change in a subsequent year if the
previous year has already been closed for business.
Take care not to confuse the fiscal year change program with year-end
closing for accounting purposes. This fiscal year change is needed only in
Asset Accounting for various technical reasons.
What is ?dunning? in SAP ?
Dunning is the process by which payment chasing
letters are issued to customers. SAP can determine which customers should receive the letters and for
which overdue
items.Different letters can be printed in SAP depending on how far overdue the payment is; from a simple
reminder to a legal letter.
The dunning level on the customer master indicates which letter has been issued to the customer.
Dunning is the process to inform the customers regarding past due amounts.
This process will send notices after set of time to customers about the payment due.
Dunning is actually the process by which you ?bill? or ?invoice? a customer for past due items.With
regards bad Checks for example dunning procedure could follow these steps:
? Step 1: Phone call to customer on receipt of bad check ? at this stage, perform the journal posting
outlined in section on Returned Checks? Step 2: Letter to customer (+10 days)? Step 3: Letter to CO (+7
days)? Step 4: Legal letter to customer (? DD139) (+13 days)? Step 5: Issue DD139 (+10 days)? Step 6:
Follow-up on DD139 (dispersing officer) (+45 days)? Step 7: Write-off (after 6 months)Steps 2-6 above
will be handled by dunning levels in SAP.
Configuration before dunning can be carried out1. Defining Dunning Area2. Define Dunning Keys3.
Define Dunning Block Reasons4. Dunning Procedure? Define Dunning Procedure (T. Code ? FBMP), To
set up a Dunning Procedure, the following must be specified: number of Dunning Levels (1-9) Dunning
Texts, Standard Text can also be included in the Dunning Texts. Dunning Procedure major parameters:
Dunning Interval, Number of Dunning Levels, Grace Period5. Assign Dunning Procedure to Customer /
Vendors Accounts (T. Code ? XD02)6. Define Correspondence Types (T. Code ? OB77)7. Assign
Company Codes to Correspondence company Codes8. Assign Programs for Correspondence Types
(OB78)9. Dunning Run: Transaction Code: F150Menu Path: accounting > financial accounting > accounts
receivable > periodic processing > dunning.Note: Whenever you schedule more than one dunning run a
day, the ?Identification? number must change. You may run several dunning runs on the same date but
the ?Identification? name must be different as well as certain parameters such as the ?Dunning Date?
and ?Documents Posted up to? date.
What is a Company Code and what are the basic organizational assignments to a company code?
Company Code is a legal entity for which financial statements like Profit and Loss and Balance Sheets
are generated. Plants are assigned to the company code, Purchasing organization is assigned to the
company code, and Sales organization is assigned to the company code.
In customizing ?company code productive ?means what? What does it denote?
Once the company code is live(real time transactions have started) this check box helps prevents deletion
of many programs accidentally. This check box is activated just before go live.
How are Vendor Invoice payments made?
Vendor payments can be made in the following manner:
Manual payments without the use of any output medium like cheques etc.
Automatic Payment program through cheques, Wire transfers, DME etc.
How do you configure manual bank statement?
The following are the steps for configuring manual bank statement:Step1: Create account symbols for the main bank and the sub accounts
Step2: Assign accounts to account symbols
Step3: Create keys for posting rules
Step4: Define posting rules
Step5: Create business transaction and assign posting rule Step6: Define variant for Manual Bank
statement
How do you configure the SAPscript form financial statement version?
It is possible to generate a form from the financial statement version and print the financial statements on
a SAPscript form. In the customizing for financial statement version select the FSV you created and
choose Goto
??Generate form ??One column or Two column form.
You can also copy form from the standard system.
How do you configure a special GL indicator for Customer?
You can use an existing special GL indicator ID or create a new one. After creating a special GL indicator
id, update the chart of accounts and
the Reconciliation account. Also as a last step you need to update the special GL code.
The special GL code should also be marked as a Reconciliation account.Switch on the relevant for credit
limit and commitment warning indicators in the master record.
What is the clearing basis for check deposit?
In the variant for check deposit we need to set up the following
a) fields document number ( which is the invoice number),
b) amount
c) Short description of the customer.
The document number and the invoice amount acts as the clearing
basis.
What are the organizational assignments in asset accounting?
Chart of depreciation is the highest node in Asset Accounting and this is assigned to the company code.
Under the Chart of depreciation all the depreciation calculations are stored.
What are Planned delivery costs and Unplanned delivery costs?
Planned delivery costs: are entered at the time of Purchase order. At goods receipt, a provision is posted
to the freight or customs clearing
account.
e.g. FRE is the account key for freight condition, hence the system can post the freight charges to the
relevant freight revenue account and FR3 is the account key for Customs duty, hence the system can
post the customs duty to the relevant G/L account.
These account keys are assigned to the specific condition types in the MM Pricing schema.
In terms of Invoice verification : If the freight vendor and the material vendor is the same : then we can
choose the option : Goods service items
+ Planned delivery costs.
If the freight vendor is different from the material vendor: then for crediting only the delivery costs, we can
choose the option: Planned
delivery costs.
What is the basis on which the apportionment is done of unplanned delivery costs?
Generally payment methods are one digit lphanumeric identifiers that indicate the type of payments
made to vendors or received from customers. There are many standard delivered SAP entries for each
country.
What is the purpose of payment methods and where are they stored?
Business process is a collection of related, structured activities--a chain of events--that produce a specific
service or product for a particular customer or customers.A business process is a recipe for achieving a
commercial
result. Each business process has inputs, method and
outputs. The inputs are a pre-requisite that must be in
place before the method can be put into practice. When the
method is applied to the inputs then certain outputs will
be created.
BUSINESS PROCESS IS A CHAIN OF EVENTS OF INPUT AND OUT TRANSACTIONS IN A
BUSINESS
business process contains what ever activities are invaled input and out put of the business activities.
example:
purchasing to a raw meterial to conver to the finished goods in that activity what ever activies are
including its called as a business process.

The Standard Print Variant in APP is RFFOUS
the app standard form is RFFO
The Standard Print Variant in APP is RFFOUS
Material valuated at standard price
For a material valuated at standard price, the initial entry of inventory data is valuated on the basis of
standard price in the material master. If you enter an alternative value
at the time of the movement type 561, then the system posts the difference to the price difference
account.
Which is the default exchange rate type which is picked up for all SAP transactions?
The default exchange rate type picked up for all SAP transactions is M (average rate)How many
numbers of line items in one single entry you can have?
The number of line items in one document you can accommodate is 999 lines.
Explain the process of calculating the planned activity output through Long term planning?
In Long term planning process the planned production quantities are entered for the planning year in a
particular scenario. The Long term planning is executed for the scenario. This generates the planned
activity requirements taking the activity quantities from the routing and multiplying with the planned
production.
The activity requirements are then transferred to the controlling module
as scheduled activity quantities. Thereafter you execute a plan activity reconciliation which will reconcile
the schedule activity and the activity
you have planned manually. The reconciliation program updates the scheduled activity quantity as the
planned activity in the controlling
module.
Explain the importance of the GR/IR clearing account.
GR/IR is an interim account. In the legacy system of a client if the goods are received and the invoice is
not received the provision is made for the same.In SAP at the Goods receipt stage the system passes an
accounting entry debiting the Inventory and crediting the GR/IR Account .Subsequently when an invoice
is recd this GR/IR account is debited and the Vendor account is credited. That way till the time that the
invoice is not received the GR/IR is shown as uncleared items.
What are the functionalities available in the financial statement version?
In the financial statement version the most important functionality available is the debit credit shift. This is
more important in case of
Bank overdraft accounts which can have a debit balance or a credit balance. Thus in case of a debit
balance you would require the overdraft
account to be shown on the Asset side. In case of credit balance you would require the account to be
shown on the Liability side.
How do you configure the automatic payment program?
The following are the steps for configuring the automatic payment
program:Step 1 Set up the following:
Co. code for Payment transaction
Define sending and paying company code.
Tolerance days for payable
Minimum % for cash discount
Maximum cash discount
Special GL transactions to be paid
Step 2 Set up the following:
Paying company code for payment transaction
Minimum amount for outgoing payment No exchange rate diff Separate payment for each ref
Bill/exch payment Form for payment advice
Step 3 Set up the following:
Payment method per country Whether Outgoing payment Check or bank transfer or B/E
Whether allowed for personnel payment
Required master data Doc types Payment medium programs Currencies allowed
Step 4 Set up the following:
Payment method per company code for payment transactions Set up per payment method and co. code
The minimum and maximum amount.
Whether payment per due day
Bank optimization by bank group or by postal code or no optimization Whether Foreign currency allowed
Customer/Vendor bank abroad allowed
Attach the payment form check
Whether payment advice required
Step 5 Set up the following:
Bank Determination for Payment Transactions
Rank the house banks as per the following
Payment method, currency and give them ranking nos
Set up house bank sub account (GL code)
Available amounts for each bank
House bank, account id, currency, available amount
Value date specification
How is Bank Reconciliation handled in SAP?
You can use an existing special GL indicator ID or create a new one.
After creating a special GL indicator id, update the chart of accounts and
the Reconciliation account. Also as a last step you need to update the
special GL code.
The special GL code should also be marked as a Reconciliation account.
Switch on the relevant for credit limit and commitment warning
indicators in the master record
What is the additional log in the AP payment program and how can it be used for troubleshooting
?
The additional log is an important setting whenperforming a payment run. The amount of information
stored in the log can be selected (see below).If there are any errors with the payments run, due to either
missing or incorrect master data settings, negativebalances due to credit memo?s etc, the system will
report
these in the additional log.Support position interviews often ask this question as a
way of determining if you know how to troubleshoot dayto-day Accounts Payable operations.
At what level are the customer and vendor codes stored in SAP?
The customer and vendor code are at the client level. That means any company code can use the
customer and vendor code by extending the
company code view.
Can posting period variant be assigned to more than 1 company code?
Yes. Posting period variant can be assigned to more than one company code.
The posting period variant can be assigned to more than one company code. Other than this, it is
significant to know that different company codes can have different posting period variant according to the
requirement.
How many Chart of Accounts can a Company code have?
A single Company code can have only one Chart of Account assigned to it. The Chart of Accounts is
nothing but the list of General Ledger
Accounts.
One company code can have 3 types of Chart of Accounts.
1.Operational chart of accounts
2.Group chart of accounts.
3.Country or legacy chart of accounts
What are terms of payments and where are they stored ?
Payment terms are created in configuration and
determine the payment due date for customer/vendor
invoices. They are stored on the customer/vendor master record and are pulled through onto the
customer/vendor invoice postings. The due date derived via the payment can be changed on each
individual invoice if required
What is done by GR/IR regrouping program?
The balance in a GR/IR account is basically because of 2 main types of transactions:Invoiced received but goods not delivered
Here the Invoice is received from the vendor and accounted for, but goods have not been received. In
such a scenario GR/IR account will have a debit balance.The GR/IR account would contain the net value
of the above two types of transactions. The GR/IR regrouping program analyses the above
transactions and regroups them to the correct adjustment account. The
balance on account of first transactions will be regrouped to another
liability account and the balance on account of second transactions will
be regrouped to an asset account.
Explain briefly how you can import electronic bank statements into SAP.
A text file is received from the bank which is then uploaded into the SAP system. The file contains details
of the company?s bank movements e.g. cheques, bank interest, bank charges, cash receipts etc.
Depending on the system configuration SAP will attempt to book these
transactions automatically to the correct accounts to avoid the need for manual entries by SAP users. Any
postings which the system cannot derive automatically can be booked through ?post-processing?Do you
require to configure additional ledger for parallel currencies?
Where only 2 currencies are configured (Company code currency and a parallel currency) there is no
need for an additional ledger. In case the third parallel currency is also configured and if it is different than
the second currency type, you would then need to configure additional
ledger.
A Finance Document usually has an assignment field. This field automatically gets populated
during data entry. Where does it get its value?
This value comes from the Sort key entered in the Gl master record.
What is a field status group?
Field status groups control the fields which come up when the user does the transactions. There are three
options for field selection. They are:
Display only
Suppressed
Mandatory
So basically you can have any field either for display only or you can totally suppress it or make it
mandatory. The field status group is stored in the FI GL Master Record.
The company has procured 10 cars. You want to create asset masters for each of this car. How do
you create 10 asset masters at the same time?
While creating asset master there is a field on the initial create screen called as number of similar assets.
Update this field with 10. When you finally save this asset master you will get a pop up asking whether
you want to maintain different texts for these assets. You can update
different details for all the 10 cars.
What is a year dependent fiscal year variant ?
In a year dependent fiscal year variant the number of days in a month are not as per the calendar month.
Let us take an example:- For the year 2005 the period January ends on 29th, Feb ends on 27th, March
ends on 29. For the year 2006 January ends on 30th, Feb ends on 26th, March
ends on 30th. This is applicable to many countries especially USA. Ever year this fiscal year variant
needs to be configured in such a case

What is the procedure in SAP for Initial stock uploading? Mention the accounting entries also.
Initial stock uploading in SAP from the legacy system is done with inventory movement type 561( a MM
transaction which is performed).
How do you maintain the number range in Production environment? Do you directly create it in
the Production box or do you do it by means of transport
Number range is to be created in the production client. You can transport it also by way of request but
creating in the production client is
more advisable
How do you go about configuring Asset accounting?
The configuration steps in brief are as follows:a) Copy a reference chart of depreciation areas
b) Assign Input Tax indicator for non taxable acquisitions
c) Assign chart of depreciation area to company code
d) Specify account determination
e) Define number range interval
f) Define asset classes
g) Define depreciation areas posting to general ledger
h) Define depreciation key
How do you keep the FI posting period open only for certain GL codes?
In transaction code OB52 click on new entries and maintain an interval or a single GL code for the
account type S with the posting period variant. If the GL codes are not in sequence then you need to
maintain further entries for the posting period variant and account type S.
what is global data and what is general data, in GL, AP, AR AA ?:
global data refers to as the Charts of Accounts and other items that are globally used as same,
but if we tailor the data according to our needs its specific data
and the data that is by default is known as general data....
global data means we are using same data around the world.
genaral data means we are using the defualt data
Give some examples of GL accounts that should be posted automatically through the system and
how is this defined in the system.
Stock and Consumption accounts are instances of GL accounts that should be automatically posted . In
the GL account master record, a check box exists wherein the automatic posting option is selected called
? Post Automatically Only?
How many currencies can be configured for a company code?
A company code can have 3 currencies in total. They are local currency ie company code currency) and 2
parallel currencies. This gives the company the flexibility to report in the different currencies.
The following are determined by the creation of a new AP vendor group (transaction OBD3)
Whether the vendors in this group are one-time
vendors ? i.e. no master record is created but the
address and payments details are entered against
each invoice to this vendor ? Field status group ? which fields on the vendor master are suppressed,
optional or mandatory when creating vendors belonging to this group Additionally the vendor number
ranges defined in
transaction XKN1 need to be assigned to your vendor account groups in transaction OBAS. The decision
needs to be made whether to assign an external number range (where the user chooses the master
record number) or an internal number range (system assigned)
Is it possible to calculate multiple shift depreciation? Is any special configuration required?
Yes it is possible to calculate multiple shift depreciation in SAP for all types of depreciation except unit of
production. No special configuration
is required.
What is generally configured in the payment term as a default for baseline date?
Generally document date is configured in the payment term as a default for base line date.
If the answer to the above question is ?Yes?, then list the scenario in which the moving average
price of the material in the material master changes when the goods are issued.
The moving average price in the material master changes in the scenario of Split Valuation which is
sometimes used by many organizations. If the
material is subject to split valuation, the material is managed as Several partial stocks and each partial
stock is valuated separately.
In split valuation, the material with valuation header record will have ?v? moving average price. This is
where the individual stocks of a material
are managed cumulatively. Here two valuation types are created, one valuation type can have ?v? (MAP)
and the other valuation type can have
?s?(standard price). In this case, whenever the goods are issued from the respective valuation
types, always the MAP for the valuation header changes.
What are the problems faced when a Business area is configured?
The problem of splitting of account balance is more pertinent in case of tax accounts.
What do you mean by Invoice parking, Invoice saving and Invoice confirmation?
Invoice parking : Invoice Parking is a functionality which allows you to create incomplete documents and
the system does not check whether the entries are balanced or not. An accounting documents is also not
created
when the invoice is in parked mode.
Thus you can create incomplete documents and then post it later to accounting when you feel it is
complete. You can even rectify the Parked
invoice. This feature is used by many companies as on many occasions all data relating to the invoice
might not be available. Invoice saving : This is also called Invoice processing or Invoice posting. The
accounting document gets created when the invoice is posted in SAP.
Invoice confirmation : There is no terminology in SAP as Invoice confirmation
Is it possible to configure the system to pick up a different exchange rate type for a particular
transaction?
Yes it is possible. In the document type definition of GL, you need to attach a different exchange rate
type.
where are Payment terms for customer master maintained?
Payment terms for customer master can be maintained at two places i.e. in the accounting view and the
sales view of the vendor master record.
Where do you attach the check payment form?
It is attached to the payment method per company code.
How is cost center accounting related to profit center?
In the master data of the Cost Center there is a provision to enter the profit center. This way all costs
which flow to the cost center are also
captured in the profit center.
Cost centers are basically created to capture costs e.g. admin cost center, canteen cost center etc Profit
centers are created to capture cost and revenue for a particular plant, business unit or product line.
What is the purpose of a ?Document type? in SAP?
A Document type is specified at the Header level during transaction entry
and serves the following purposes:
??It defines the Number range for documents
??It controls the type of accounts that can be posted to eg
Assets, Vendor, Customer, Normal GL account
??Document type to be used for reversal of entries
??Whether it can be used only for Batch input sessions Document Type is created for differentiating
business transactions. Eg Vendor Invoice, Credit Memo, Accrual Entries,Customer Invoice. It is a
two digit character.
What is a Financial Statement Version?
A FSV (Financial Statement Version) is a reporting tool and can be used to depict the manner in which
the financial accounts like Profit and Loss Account and Balance Sheet needs to be extracted from SAP. It
is freely
definable and multiple FSV's can be defined for generating the output for various external agencies like
Banks and other Statutory authorities.
How are input and output taxes taken care of in SAP?
A tax procedure is defined for each country and tax codes are defined within this. There is flexibility to
either expense out the Tax amounts or Capitalize the same to Stocks.
What are Validations and Substitutions?
Validations/Substitutions in SAP are defined for each functional area e.g. FI-GL, Assets, Controlling etc at
the following levels
1. Document level
2. Line item level
These need to be specifically activated and setting them up are complex and done only when it is really
needed. Often help of the technical team
is taken to do that.
Is it possible to maintain plant wise different GL codes?
Yes. To be able to do so the valuation group code should be activated. The valuation grouping code is
maintained per plant and is configured in
the MM module. Account codes should be maintained per valuation grouping code after doing this
configuration.
Is Business area at company code Level?
No. Business area is at client level. What this means is that other company codes can also post to the
same business area.
What are the different scenarios under which a Business Area or a Profit Center may be defined?
This question is usually very disputable. But both Business Areas and Profit centers are created for
internal reporting. Each has its own pros and cons but many companies nowadays go for Profit center as
there is a feeling that business area enhancements would not be supported by SAP
in future versions.
There are typical month end procedures which need to be executed for both of them and many times
reconciliation might become a big issue. A typical challenge in both of them is in cases where you do not
know the Business Area or Profit Center of the transaction at the time of posting.
Is it possible to default certain values for particular fields? For e.g. company code
Yes it is possible to default values for certain fields where a parameter id is present.
Step 1 Go to the input field to which you want to make defaults.
Step 2 Press F1, then click technical info push button. This would open
a window that displays the corresponding parameter id (if one has been
allocated to the field) in the field data section.
Step 3 Enter this parameter id using the following path on SAP Easy access screen System ??User
profile ??Own data.Step 4 Click on parameter tab. Enter the parameter id code and enter the value you
want as default. Save the usersettings.
Is it possible to print the financial statement version on a SAPscript form?
Yes. It is possible to print the financial statement version on a SAPscript form.
Is it possible to generate a financial statement form automatically?
Yes. It is possible to generate a form utomatically.
Is it possible to keep the FI posting period open only for certain GL codes?
Yes. It is possible to keep open the FI posting period only for certain GL codes.
Is it possible to keep the FI posting period open only for certain GL codes? How do we do that.
Where are Payment terms for vendor master maintained?
Payment terms for Vendor master can be maintained at two places i.e. in the accounting view and the
purchasing view.
Which is the payment term which actually gets defaulted in transaction (accounting view or
purchasing view)?
The payment term in the accounting view of the vendor master comes into picture if the transaction
originates from the FI module. If an FI invoice is posted (FB60) to the Vendor, then the payment terms is
defaulted from the accounting view of the vendor master.
The payment term in the purchasing view of the vendor master comes into picture if the transaction
originates from the MM module. A
purchase order is created in the MM module. The payment terms are defaulted in the purchase order
from the purchasing view of the vendor
master.
Explain the entire process of Invoice verification from GR to Invoice verification in SAP with
accounting entries?
These are the following steps:
A goods receipt in SAP for a purchased material is prepared referring a
purchase order.
When the goods receipt is posted in SAP the accounting entry passed is:Inventory account Debit
GR/IR account credit
A GR/IR (which is Goods receipt/Invoice receipt) is a provision account
which provides for the liability for the purchase. The rates for the
valuation of the material are picked up from the purchase order.
When the invoice is booked in the system through Logistics invoice
verification the entry passed is as follows:GR/IR account debit
Vendor credit
How are Tolerances for Invoice verification defined?
The following are instances of tolerances that can be defined for Logistic
Invoice Verification.
c. Small Differences
d. Moving Average Price variances
e. Quantity variances
f. Price variances
Based on the client requirement, the transaction can be ?Blocked? or
Posted with a ?Warning? in the event of the Tolerances being exceeded.
Tolerances are nothing but the differences between invoice amount and
payment amount or differences between goods receipt amount and
invoice amount which is acceptable to the client.
Can we change the reconciliation account in the vendor master?
Yes. Reconciliation account can be changed in the vendor master provided that the authority to change
has been configured. Normally we should not change the reconciliation account.
What is the impact on the old balance when the reconciliation account in the vendor master is
changed?
Any change you make to the reconciliation account is prospective and not retrospective. The old items
and balances do not reflect the new account only the new transactions reflect the account.
There is an advance given by the customer which lies in a special GL account indicator A. Will
this advance amount be considered for credit check?
It depends on the configuration setting in the special GL indicator A. If the ?Relevant to credit limit?
indicator is switched on in the Special GL indicator A the advances will be relevant for credit check,
otherwise it will not be relevant.
In payment term configuration what are the options available for setting a default baseline date?
There are 4 options available:1) No default
2) Posting date
3) Document date
4) Entry date
How are depreciation keys defined?
The specifications and parameters that the system requires to calculate depreciation amounts are
entered in Calculation methods. Calculation methods replace the internal calculation key of the
depreciation key. Depreciation keys are defaulted in Asset Master from the asset class.
What are the special steps and care to be taken in Fixed asset data migration into SAP system
especially when Profit center accounting is active?
Data migration is slightly different from a normal transaction which happens in Asset accounting module.
Normally, in asset accounting the day to day transactions is posted with
values through FI bookings and at the same time the asset reconciliation is updated online realtime.
Whereas In data Migration the asset master is updated with values through a transaction code called as
AS91. The
values updated on the master are Opening Gross value and the accumulated depreciation.
What are evaluation groups?
The evaluation groups are an option for classifying assets for reports or user defined match code (search
code). You can configure 5 different evaluation groups. You can update these evaluation groups on to the
asset master record.
What are group assets?
The tax requirements in some countries require calculation of depreciation at a higher group or level of
assets. For this purpose you
can group assets together into so-called group assets
What are the steps to be taken into account during a depreciation run to ensure that the
integration with the general ledger works smoothly?
For each depreciation area and company code, specify the following:
1 The frequency of posting depreciation(monthly,quarterly etc)
2 CO account assignment (cost center)
3 For each company code you must define a document type for
automatic depreciation posting: This document type requires its
own external number range.
4 You also need to specify the accounts for posting. (Account determination)
Finally to ensure consistency between Asset Accounting and Financial Accounting, you must process the
batch input session created by the
posting report. If you fail to process the batch input session, an error message will appear at the next
posting run.
The depreciation calculation is a month end process which is run in batches and then once the batch
input is run the system posts the
accounting entries into Finance.
Material valuated at moving average price:
The initial entry of inventory data is valuated as follows : If you enter a value when uploading the initial
data, the quantity entered is valuated at this price. If you do not enter a value when entering initial data,
then the quantity entered is valuated at the MAP present in the material master. The accounting entries
are: Inventory account is debited and Inventory
Historical upload account is credited.
How do you configure FI-SD account determination?
The FI-SD account determination happens through an access sequence.
The system goes about finding accounts from more specific criteria to less specific criteria.
This is the sequence it would follow:
1) It will first access and look for the combination of Customer
accounts assignment grp/ Material account assignment grp/ Account key.
2) If it does not find the accounts for the first combination it will look for Customer account assignment grp
and account key combination.
3) Furthermore, if it does not find accounts for the first 2 criteria?s then it will look for Material account
assignment grp/Account key.
4) If it does not find accounts for the all earlier criteria?s then finally it will look for Account key and assign
the GL code.
Thus posting of Sales Invoices into FI are effected on the basis of a combination of Sales organization,
Account type, or Customer and
Material Account assignment groups and following are the options available.
a. Customer AAG/Material AAG/Account type
b. Material AAG/Account type
c. Customer AAG/Account type For each of this option you can define a Gl account. Thus the system
uses this gl account to automatically pass the entries.
Can you assign multiple G/L accounts in the Purchase order for the same line item?
Yes, we can assign multiple G/L accounts in the Purchase order for the same line item. The costs can be
allocated on a percentage or quantity
basis. If the partial goods receipt and partial invoice receipt has already taken place, then the partial
invoice amount can be distributed
proportionally, i.e. evenly among the account assigned items of a Purchase order. Alternatively the partial
invoice amount can be distributed on a progressive fill-up basis, i.e. the invoiced amount is allocated to
the individual account assignment items one after the other.
What is Credit memo and subsequent debit in Logistics Invoice verification?
The term credit memo refers to the credit memo from the vendor. Therefore posting a credit memo always
leads to a debit posting on the
vendor account. Credit memos are used if the quantity invoiced is higher than the quantity received or if
part of the quantity was returned.
Accounting entries are : Vendor account is debited and GR/IR account is
credited.
Subsequent debit : If a transaction has already been invoiced and additional costs are invoiced later, then
subsequent debit is necessary. In
this case you can debit the material with additional costs, i.e. GR/IR account debit and Vendor account
credit. When entering the Subsequent debit, if there is no sufficient stock coverage, only the portion for
the available stock gets posted to the stock account and rest is posted to the price difference account.
1. why do we use downpayment in customers? normally it is used for vendors right?I am unable
to understand the logic behind it. please any body who are aware of it reply me.
actually we use down payments for customers only. we take advance amount from customers for
mfg of goods. this amt will be taken according to the order of the customer. we can use same way for
vendors also.
2. I have set up 2 Banks suppose 1)ICICI and 2)SBI and I want to print.. the passbook for both

variant and maintaint the details. after maintaing variant go to FCHI to maintin the check lot and enter the
house bank name and chequer numbers serious
3. can we create a fiscal year variant with more than 16(12+4)posting periods? if so wat is the
procedure?
I am sure that we can't create posting periods more than 16. 12 is normal posting periods & 4 periods
is special posting periods.
4. What is screen layout in sap fico?
Screen layout means, customization of things how you like.
Ex:- When you are booking invoice in GL, how do you want to see your screen layout.....Cost center,
Profit center....like this, you will set or use the default.
5. What is Functional spec
Functional Spec means Functional Consultants can be prepared by some Documents that consists of
object steps and consists of which type of tables primary key fields , Screen Sequential Order and data
need to use and coming from which type of tables etc... This all the things
can be prepared by one document file. This is called the Functional Spec.
6. foreign currency revaluation why it is required ?
A foreign currency valuation is necessary if vendor accounts contain open items in a foreign currency.
The amounts of these open items were translated into the local currency at the time they were entered
using the current exchange rate for
example, USD 500 to EUR 600, the local currency. The exchange rate is probably different at the time of
closing, and open items need to be valuated again. A program valuates the open items using the new
exchange rate and enters the valuation difference EUR 10 in the valuated line items. It also creates the
valuation posting.
7. 1. why do we request parallel currency?
the parallel curnceies are usd if the company is having two copany cods in deferent countries. for
reporting purpose we use these currencies.
8. is it possible to have different currencies for gl accounts under one chart of accounts ? if yes
what is the significance
u can us co code curency as gl master curency. or u can specify balance in local curency in gl
account.
9. how the opening & closing of periods is done for fi ?
through the posting periods we can open and close posting peridos in ob52
10. what is the relation between fi & co and ho the accounting flow takes place?
through controllinmg the accounting takes place between fi and co. and the primary cost elements are
nothing but gl accounts in fi.
11. How does FI G/L Link with house bank
T.C.- FI12
We assign gl account number to house bank
12. How Depreciation Area are link with Assets Class?
T.CODE : OAYZ
13. am getting an error when I am trying to do a settlement for orders. It says "complete allocation
structure to A1". Any suggestions?
When u r doing CO Allocation, you have to first configure the CO Allocation. CO Allocation is A1. First
configure the CO Allocation and then u will find that u can easily settle the orders.
14. About Asset Master Data 'Expired Useful Life', anyone can tell me why the Expired Useful Life
of an asset did no updated automatic monthly after few months depreciation posted (etc. Apr,
May, Jun)? and it stopped at the end of company calendar year (etc. March - Period 12). The
legacy data has been migrated into SAP and it's capitalized more than 1 calendar year. Thanks.
In SAP Expired usful life is as on start of a fiscal year and will get updated after complition of a year / FY
change .at the time of legacy transfer one must update the expired useful life till the legacy transfer date .
15. Hi, can anybody tell me what are all the areas in CO we have to prepare like in FIGL,AP,AR,AA. I am a starter in SAP,

16. I have 3 co.code(india,uk,usa)& 4 products.so my question is how to maintain currency,chart
of account,product
you should maintain parallel currency like one local currency & 2 parallel currency for the purpose of
consolidation .
2- you can make one chart of account assign to all co,code or different chart of account is assign to
different co.code
3-you can maintain the product at plant level.so it assign at valuation group in code.
17. What is difference between TAXJIN & TAXINN?
Select Tax Calculation Procedure : In this IMG activity,
you specify which tax procedure you want to use for
determining excise duties and sales taxes on input
materials in India.
If you use condition-based excise determination, use a copy
of the tax procedure TAXINN.
If you use formula-based excise determination, use a copy
of the tax procedure TAXINJ.
This tax procedure also supports condition-based excise
determination, so that you can work with both concurrently.
SAP strongly recommend that new customers use conditionbased excise determination. Note that once you have started
using a tax procedure, you cannot switch to another one,
otherwise you will not be able to display old documents.
18. what is the work of OKB9 and why we need okb9 setting? Plz, give in detials.

parameters and save.
20. what is MIGO? where we can use? what is the use of that.
MATERIAL INWARD AND GOODS MOVMENT OUTWARD
21. What is meaning of T.code? where we can use this?
t-code is nothing but transaction code. we are in easy access screne we want to go for img setting
screnes straight away we can type /n with t.code to avoid navigation. that is the advantage. vice
versa.i.e. from img screen to easy access screen.
22. what is cost component structure both splitting and switching?
Splitting structure : If a cost center provides two or more activities, then we define a splitting structure
to inform the system to break up the cost into the activities tagged to the CC through the splitting structure
Switching structure ; If we do not want to retain all the cost components of a cost center to the primary
cost center we use a switching structure. For example, we have a summarization cost center in which
labor, overheads and
materials are charged. the same can be trfd to the primary cost component structure wherein the same
will be added to respective cost components. However if we want to retain all the cost components as
single component say Energy, we create a switching structure in which we assign all the elements to the
energy component. In the planning layout, we assign this switching structure to the required CC
23. What are the different catagories of cost element?
Cost element tells you the origin of cost(It is a cost
carrier) i.e. how the cost originates and is carried. There
are two types of cost elements
a. Primary
b. secondry
Reliance is laying down fiber optics for their broadband
portfolio in Mumbai. They have (to name a few)
1. Bought fiber optics (External)
2. Hire Labor to dug service territories (External)
3. Dispatch Engineers to supervise the operation (Internal)
Now each one represents a cost that will be incurred by
Reliance broadband. For 1.&3. you will create a cost element
and assign it to a GL account while 3. can be made as IO.
So a primary cost element
a. is a cost carrier
b. had subsequent GL account
c. can be directly posted to
while a secondary cost element
a. is a cost carrier
b. is active for controlling only
24. what is Number Ranges? why we are using? How to give the number ranges for vendor
creation?
number range is a range of number that u define in the system. these are used to maintain the
uniqueness of the item that has been allotted a number range. for example if one number from the range
has been assigned then the system would not repeat it for that particular item. number range for the
vendor can be defined in the AR/AP part of the config under financial accounting.
25. while posting transation f-02 error popping up it says 012 posting period not specified in 2009.
In above situation kindly help me someone
012 in 2009
you will check in the posting periods. In that periods you will define the current year i.e. 2009-10 this is
the financial year in india. You will give it as 1 2009 12 201013 2010 to 16 2010 . Then u will definitely
solve the problem.

28. What is the transaction code of the process of Manual Banking System and the posting of
Electronic Bank Statement?
Tcode for post manual bank statement is FF67. and Electronic Bank Statement is FF.5 / FF_5
29. what is cost element?whar is primary element? what is secondary element?
Cost element is master data in controlling and is the cost carrier to or from other modules, Primary
cost elements are those which moves the data from fi to other modules in SAP and where as secondary
cost elements move the data within the controlling
30. different between withholdin tax and with out holding taxs?
Withholding tax is a TDS (Tax deduction at source) on the AR side Customer deducts the tax and pay's
the remaining amount for which companies receive Form 16 A and on the AP side the company deducts
the Tax and issues form 16 A in india
Normally the Tax is deducted on service type transaction
In simple Company deducts the tax on behalf of the Govt and Deposit the amount - its a Direct Tax

business/account practice. If we will post the transaction
forcible balance will mismatch of resepetive books.
specially in case of closing of period we have to take
extra care of sales and bank accounts.

When we closed the period then all the G.L become freezed.

of these closed balance. and these balance going across to
all users.
If we passed an entry in customer account, ofcourse after
reopening the period, then all balance will be effected. To

adjustment entries.

Question Is it possible to do Down Payments to vendors through
AUTOMATIC PAYMENT PROGRAM run, What are the steps required?
Answer
#1
yeah we can, down payment to vendor is nothing but a vendor
invoice. Automatic payment program works on open item
basis. whenever we run the APP run all the open items get
cleared which are DUE for that time. so automatically
downpayment also gets cleared.
Answer

I SUPPOSE THAT IN ONE CASE ONLYTHE APP RUN IS POSSIBLE IN
CASE OF DOWN PAYMENT. I.E. WHEN THE VENDOR INVOICE IS MORE
THAN DOWN PAYMENT THEN THE BALANCE IS SHOWS AS OPEN ITEM IN
VENDR ACCOUNT. THEN APP IS POSSIBLE.
IF ANY AMSWER IS BETTER THAN THIS PLEASE FORWARD TO ME.
Answer
#3
First create a down payment request then it automatically
show the open item list when we rum APP for a particular

Answer
#1
After creating chart of accounts to a company code we have
to create account groups depends upon the client's
requirements. Say for Example in liabilities side
Authorised Capital, called up capital paid up capital.
Actually there is a format for Company Balance Sheet. So
documents splitting is used for byfurcation of Balance
Sheet Items and Profit and loss accounts items.
So Balanace Sheet items we assign 01000 Balance Sheet Items.
for Revenues and Expenses we assign 30000 and 20000.

Document Splitting Is we have in New G/L Concepts ECC6.0,
Splitting means when we create G/L a/c's its giving option
to splite in to differante profit centre( Controlling), so
when you post any entry to that G/l ac automatically it
post in to profit center what ever you assigned( no need to
create and assigne PC to G/L in controlling)
Ex: Purchases A/c Dr--100

Purchases A/c (Profit Center B --50)
To Vendor A/c--100

operative chart of accounts for 9 company codes and for
last company code we created contry chart of accounts and
we assign all company codes to one group company... can we
get the reports for 10 company codes ?
Answer

look all the 10 companies are having co code and these all are
can be assinged in one company for example reliance is a
company and reliance technology, petrol, chemical etc are
the co.codes and these all are the part of it.so that we
create the company reliance and we create these all as a co
codes.
We can also see this in: spro > img > enterprise structure >
definition >financial accounting>copy delete co code
>structure>navigation> and select the company and co code chain.
Answer

Ravi Thanks.. but my question is that we didn't create
Operative chart of accounts for 10th company code.. only
country chart of account is created...
you got my point
Answer
#3
I think the report which has company code as a selection
parameter that report we can genarate for 10 th company
code. Trial balance (S_ALR_87012277). If I am wrong please
correct me..
Thanks
Answer
#4
Yes all the company codes are having individual chart of
accounts. And at the same time country chart of accounts
cannot be overlooked so it can also be treated as operative
chart of accounts. So you can as well assign all 10 chart
ofaccounts to the group company. But!!!
To get the reports you should certienly see that the when
creating the GENERAL LEDGER (FS002) THE GROUP COMPANY GL
ACCOUNT CODE IS ASSIGNED TO IT.
IF THIS IS DONE YOU CAN HAVE THE REPORTS
I THINK THIS IS THE BEST ANSWER --PLEASE DO CORRECT ME IF I AM WRONG

posting the transactions
menu path
spro-saprefimg-financial accounting -financial accounting global setting - document -document number
ranges -define document number ranges
how the system generate document no range where as we create a document no range 1 to
9999999999 . how system pick up the particular no range ?
Answer
#3
First of all we will speak about the No'r ranges: Number
rannges are use dto post a document in a sequencial manner
based on document. When ever use posting a document he
should mention the D type in a transaction like KR,SA,KZ
Etc.
So for this Document type we should assign the nomber
ranges so it will pickup the No'r range withing document
type no'r range.
There are two types of No ranges:
1. Internal No'r ranges
2. External No'r ranges
Internal No'r ranges means system will pickup the no ranges
automatically we need not give no here in this case.
External No'r ranges means user need to give the no'r
ranges manually at the time posting a document.

Differance between field status variant and field status group
Answer
#1
The field status of an individual field or a group of fields
is marked in a field status group which is then assigned to
individual gl account master records. you may attach field
status groups to a field status variant so that the field
staus groups are used in various company codes.
the field status variant is named similar to the company
code. for example, if your company code is 1000. the field
status variant is also named 1000 and it is assigned to the
company code.
Differance between field status variant and field status group
Answer
#2
Field status variant is at client level first we will
create the FSV and assign it ot FSGroup.
This field status group controls the fields which are there
in GL transactions which means which fields are
required,optional,suppressed at the time of posting.
Because in general there are no of fields while posting a
document so we can't provide all fields also will get
confusion.
This FSG is at company code level..
Field status variant is collection of Field status Group.
Field status group control the fields which come up when
business user does the transaction. there are three ways for
field selection optional ,surplus,display only

mistake ?
Answer

TRY:
When we TDS deducted on payment basis & while invoice
posting we can deduct what we paid already and remaining we
can pay. In SAP for TDS reversal on Advance Payament is F-54

what is the difference between leading and non leading ledger.
Answer
#1
New General Ledger has all functions of the Classic General
Ledger but has been enhanced with special ledger functions
to create greater flexibility.
In New G/L, there is one leading ledger for each
client that is valid for all company codes
You can define only one ledger as the leading
ledger SAP provides the leading ledger 0L
The leading ledger is integrated with all
subsidiary ledgers
Only the values from the leading ledger are sent to
CO
The leading area in Asset Accounting (depreciation
area 01) must be posted to the leading ledger
Leading ledger uses the (additional) local
currencies assigned to the company code
Leading ledger uses the GL Total Table: FAGLFLEXT
In each company code, the settings made for the following
parameters are automatically applied to the leading ledger:
Currencies
Fiscal Year Variant
Posting Period Variant
The non-leading ledgers are used as parallel ledger
together with the leading ledger. This can be used to apply
different accounting standards, such as IAS/IFRS or US-GAAP.
Non-leading ledgers are activated by company code
You can define additional currencies that deviate
from those used by the leading ledger.
The currency of the leading ledger is always used
as the first currency.
As a second and third currency of a non-leading
ledger, you may only use currency types that you have
already assigned to the relevant company code for the
leading ledger
You can define a fiscal year variant that differs
from the leading ledger. If you dont specify a FYV, the
FYV of the company code is automatically used.
You can also define a posting period variant that
differs from the leading ledger
Separate document types and number ranges can be
defined for non-leading ledgers by users, to ensure
continuity in ledger numbering
Leading ledger may use as per local accounting principles, currencies and fiscal year.
Non leading ledger may use different accounting principles,fiscal year and currencies
ex. your company has in India the fiscal year is april to march that is Leading Ledger
Your company business has in usa for usa fiscal year jan to dec that is non leading ledge

Answer
#1
fi-mm flow--basically we use four sap defined keys like
bsx,wrx,gbb,pda, bsx-invoice verification,wrx-grir
verification,pda-price difference through this we link fi with
mm,apart from that we have to pass five journal entry at the
time of integration.after that we assign valuation class for
each asset.This is required to interlinking fi with mm.then
the ingration process will happen,One important thing after
integrated its altemately it effect in g/l posing,
'i thing i will help full for sap people.
what is the FI-MM Flow?
Answer
#2
the fi-mm integration is based on the followingFI-MM integration is how the G/L account will be updated
when you are carrying
an inventory-related transaction. For convenience, you may divide the process into
three areas: (1) Organization structure dependent, (2) material master dependent,
and (3) transaction dependent. Account determination will be carried out depending
upon these three factors.
Organization structure dependent:
Valuation level It is an organization structure, which determines at which level
valuation will be done for material. Valuation can be done at plant level or
company code level. Valuation must be at plant level if you want to use the
application component PP or Costing, or if the system is an SAP Retail system.
The decision you make is valid for the entire client. It is recommended that you
set material valuation at plant level.
Valuation area T he valuation area is a component of valuation level. Suppose
you have created the valuation level at the plant level and there are several
plants at the company code level; each plant is a valuation area for the purpose
of inventory.
Valuation grouping code The valuation grouping code is a set of valuation areas
that are grouped together for the purposes of accounting. Through the account
determination process, it will be related to the COA. The valuation grouping
code makes it easier to set automatic account determination. Within the COA,
you assign the same valuation grouping code to the valuation areas you want
to assign to the same account. Valuation grouping codes either refl ect a fi ne
distinction within a COA or correspond to a COA. Within a COA, you can use
the valuation grouping code.
Material master dependent:
; V aluation class This is the assignment of a material to a group of G/L accounts.
Along with other factors, the valuation class determines the G/L accounts that
are updated as a result of valuation-relevant transactions or events, such as a
goods movement. The valuation class makes it possible to:
; Post stock values of materials of the same material type to different G/L
accounts
Post stock values of materials of different material types to the same G/L
account
1.4 G/L ACCOUNTING (FI-G/L) 37
; Material type This groups together materials with the same basic attributes,
such as raw materials, semifi nished products, or fi nished products. When creating
a material master record, you must assign the material to a material type.
The material type you choose determines:
Whether the material is intended for a specifi c purpose, such as a confi gurable
material or process material
Whether the material number can be assigned internally or externally
; Account category reference The account category reference is a combination
of valuation classes. Exactly one account category reference is assigned to a
material type. The link between the valuation classes and the material types is
set up via the account category reference. In the standard system, an account
reference is created for each material type. The account category reference is
in turn assigned to exactly one valuation class. This means that each material
type has its own valuation class.
Transaction Dependent:
; Movement types This is a classifi cation key indicating the type of material
movement (for example, goods receipt, goods issue, or physical stock transfer).
The movement type enables the system to fi nd predefi ned posting rules determining
how accounts of a fi nancial accounting system (stock and consumption
accounts) are to be posted and how the stock fi elds in the material master record
are to be updated.
; Transaction/Event key This is a key allowing the user to differentiate between
the various transactions and events (such as physical inventory transactions
and goods movements) that occur within the fi eld of inventory management.
The transaction/event type controls the fi ling/storage of documents and the
assignment of document numbers. Some important transaction keys are BSX,
GBB, and WRX.
Using the organization dependent, material master dependent, and transaction
dependent areas, you determine the inventory management requirements,
which are:
■ Whether changes in quantity are updated in the material master record .
■ Whether changes in value are also updated in the stock accounts in fi nancial
accounting .
FI-MM integration mapping is stored in table T030. For a better understanding,
use transaction code SE16.

What is the foreign currency valuation,importance of the foreign currency?
Answer
#1
HI, Lets suppose you had a Business Transaction with
Business Partner Customer/Vendor in currrency other than
your company code. ex. USD or EUR etc... where as your
company code corrency is INR... In this case there will be
some payment term assigned to Vendor and hence an invoice
gets due after couple of days after an invoice is posted..
meanwhile there will be fluctions in the currency
conversion.. and the due amount to the Vendor may be less
or high based on the currency market. in order to track
this fluctuation in accounts we valuate the currency. that
is nothing but foreign currency valuation.

particular company within your group, this will default
your transactions to that company.

an we maintain different fiscal year for Asset Accounting?
Answer
#1
You can use a fiscal year version in Asset Accounting that is different from the fiscal year version used in
Financial Accounting. However, it is absolutely necessary that the start and end date be the same in
Financial Accounting and in the Asset Accounting subsidiary ledger. (However, refer also to Different
Fiscal Year Start or End in FI-AA).
You might need a different fiscal year version in FI-AA in order for the system to correctly determine the
start and end of depreciation using period control in Asset Accounting. The reason for this is that the
calculation of depreciation works only with whole periods. For example, you have an acquisition on June
30 and the system is to calculate depreciation for half a year. However, the FI general ledger is using a
version with 13 normal periods. Depreciation would have to be calculated for 6.5 periods. This calendar
assignment cannot be defined in period control for Asset Accounting.
Features
If you want to use a different fiscal year version in Asset Accounting, you have the following options:
You can define a different fiscal year version at the level of the company code. Specify the fiscal year
version in the FI-AA definition of the company code (FI-AA Customizing: Valuation Fiscal Year
Versions).
You can also specify a different fiscal year at a lower level, at the level of the depreciation area. Enter the
fiscal year version in the FI-AA definition of the depreciation area. This might be necessary if you use a
factory calendar for book depreciation that does not correspond to the normal calendar, but use a normal
calendar for the tax balance sheet.
The system determines the fiscal year version it should use from the bottom up. If there is a fiscal year
version specified at the depreciation area level, the system uses it. If not, the system uses the fiscal year
version in the FI-AA definition of the company code. If there is no fiscal year version specified there
either, the system uses the version entered for the general ledger.

What are tickets in sap? Which type of tickets we have to face in sap fi? Please give me some example of
sap fi -->GL, -->AR, -->AP. I will very glad full. Thanks.
Answer
#1
Tickets are nothing but the problem or errors faced by the
end user.. Being as a functional consultant which needs to
be solved by you..
Like if company has opened account in new bank for which In
SAP we need to create a HOUSE BANK for the same and if
company is using EBS facility etc. we need to complete
required settings..for the required HOUSE BANKS only after
all this done end user can use this facility Or if Tax
Department want new Tax codes, New Doc types Etc
In this case you will get above requirement by mail, or your
Sr. will assign you this work.. In SAP there are three
systems DEVELOPMENT/QUALITY/PRODUCTION
you do above config. in DEV server and later move it to to
further with the help of the respective Ticket Number..
That means each new config. is having new ticket no. which
later moved to live with the help of technical guy.
1.Can we activate or deactivate the open item management after the transactions are posted, if yes
how..clearly explain 2. Can we activate line item management after posting...how? Thank you
Answer
#2
Yes we can activate the Open Item management for the account
which are already containing line items but to activate this
facility for the account this account has to have Zero
balance or else you can not activate the same...
In case of Line item or open item also when you activate
these facilities for the account it will show you the line
items whether it is Open or Close only after activation date...
For eg. if you have activated the same on 25 jan 2011 the
doc posted after 25th can show you open/close states not
before dated 25th...

yes we can activate the line item after posting the
document but before saving it , we have to go to fs00
screen and select the line item box and save it the line

: What is asset capitalization date? and asset value date...what is difference between them. I have come
across definitions still not clear...can any body explain with example...Thank you.
Answer
#1
I will tel u with an example.
Company has purchased a asset on 01.03.2008 and the asset
has gone to production on same day. Today the company is
going to sell the particular asset that is 07.02.2011, for
that company will valuate the asset as on today.
Now, 01.03.2008 is asset capitalization date
07.02.2011 is asset value date
#2
The Asset Value Date is the start date of depreciation for the asset. The planned depreciation is
calculated by the system based on this depreciation start date and the selected depreciation term for
that asset. Be careful with the posting date and asset value date. Both dates need to be in the same fiscal
year
Capitalization date=acquisition date

How is the electronics bank statement gets uploaded in the sap system, how the reconciliation and
document posting happens? explain in detail...?
Answer
#1
There are different programs to upload electronic bank
statement.
FF.5 or FF_5.
I think your case Multicash format you are using.
You need have three files in FF.5 and two files in FF_5
You can prepare a Z program in order to truncate the
electronic bank statement into two or three part files and
save them on the application server.
1. Take all the external codes list from bank.
2. Take any available documentation from the Bank
describing the relevance of the external codes.
3. Make sure that your Chart of Accounts (Bank Accounts)
last digits logic is appropriate to meet the requirements.
4. Based on this decide the Account Symbols that are
required to be created.
5. Make sure that the masking rules are configured properly.
6. Decide the posting rules that needs to be created.
7. Link up your external symbols provided by the bank with
Posting rules and give proper algorithms for posting and
clearing logic.
6. Concentrate on the posting areas to be posted while
uploading the bank statement.
Further explanation would help you to understand the
functionality when uploaded the electronic bank statement.
Main purpose of uploading the bank statement into SAP is to
make your Bank Main Account and physical bank statement
balance in sync.
You do not have any traditional Bank Reconciliation
Statement (BRS) report in SAP.
SAP is normally you maintain bank main account and bank sub
account. Whenever you make a payment through F-53 or F-58
or F110, the entry would be:
Vendor Account Dr
To Bank Sub Account
The ending digits of the sub-account would be important in
configuring the masking rule. Based on this masking rule
when you upload the bank statement the entry the system
would pass is:
Bank Sub Account Dr
To Bank Main Account
It depends on the configuration, either the sub account
will be cleared by the system automatically or you need to
run F.13 to clear the sub accounts.
At the time of receipts, you have different accounting
entries unlike payments. It needs to post to two posting
areas. 1. GL Accounting 2. Sub-Ledger Accounting
The entries would system itself pass is:
Bank Main Account Dr
To Bank Sub Account
Bank Sub Account Dr
To Cutomer account.
Clearing logic mentioned for your posting rules and the
alogrithm used for your external bank symbols will also
play pivotal role in clearing the accounts.
Ideally you will use
FF67 / FF.5 / FF_5 for uploading manual or electronic bank
statement
FEBA / FEBA_BANK_STATEMENT is used for furthe rprocessing.
GO THROUGH SAP NOTE 48854
Please go through SAP Note. 48854. You will get an idea
regarding the functionality of the algorithms.
Though this note is in relevant to GB specific, you will
find this very useful.
description follows below regarding the normal procedure
for maintaining table T028G. Due to the different bank
codes and posting rules, pre-Customizing is not possible at
this point.
The following processing types are available - unless
stated otherwise, you should use the interpretation
algorithm: '000 - No interpretation' in each case.
1. '00': There is no processing. The entry line is ignored.
2. '01': A validation is made whether an entry exists for
the transferred check number in the check table (PAYR). The
check number and payment document number are transferred
for further processing. Interpretation algorithm: outgoing
check processing '011'-'013'; the update in the check file
is via the interpretation algorithm.
3. '02': Transfer of the ending balance to the electronic
bank statement
4. '03': Transfer of the opening balance to the electronic
bank statement
5. '04': Clearing via the allocation number which is
delivered with the bank statement. No interpretation
algorithm.
6. '05': Clearing of BACS payments or BACS bank collection.
The reference text field is first read to ascertain whether
it involves payments initiated by users or bank collection
via BACS. Providing it does involve a cash transaction
initiated by the user, the payment document numbers
concerned are determined via the reference number and
transferred as a reference to further processing.
Interpretation algorithm: '000 - No interpretation'
or '019 - Reference number DME'.
Note
To differentiate between the two procedures in table T028G,
you have to maintain two separate entries.
Example: the bank uses bank code '62' for cash receipts and
for BACS bank collection.
Ext. Transaction +/- sign Posting rule Int. Algorithm
Processing type 62 + GB62 001 5
62 SAPBACS + GB63 000 5
7. '06': Bank costs or interest revenues
Recommended interpretation algorithm: '000 - No
interpretation'
8. '07': Total amount of cash disbursements
9. '08': Total amount of cash receipts
10. '09': Items not paid
Recommended interpretation algorithm: '000 - No
interpretation'

we have grouped G.L. according to there similarity for
reporting purpose. And in SAP we create group accounts in
same logic but there is more function for group accounts it
also control field status of master record & also define
number ranges for that similar kind of G.L.
Examples of group of accounts
Administrative expenses, payment to employees, fixed assets,
etc

This type of Field states groups are available in field
status variant. One FSV(field status variant) contain
n-number of FSG(Field states group), FSG is assigned in
account master data. That account FSG controls that
account transactions fields.

foreign currency revaluation why it is required ?
Answer
#1
A foreign currency valuation is necessary if vendor accounts
contain open items
in a foreign currency. The amounts of these open items were
translated into the
local currency at the time they were entered using the
current exchange rate for
example, USD 500 to EUR 600, the local currency.
The exchange rate is probably different at the time of
closing, and open items need
to be valuated again. A program valuates the open items
using the new exchange
rate and enters the valuation difference EUR 10 in the
valuated line
items. It also creates the valuation posting.
: What is the difference between task and change request? Is it possible to release a change request
without releasing a task?
Answer
#1
First we will create the Request under Request each user
will have the one task, Change Request means nothing but a
change request represents a list containing objects to be
transported to the production environment. The change
request as such contains the purpose of the change, the
change type, the request category and the target system.
Change requests are commonly referred to as transports in
SAP terminology. One important thing to note is that a
change request may consist of more than one change tasks.
At the time of creation of a change request, SAP R/3
assigns a change request number to the transport request.
In case user is using the Workbench Organizer in SAP, the
target system and the type of request are assigned
automatically to the change request. There are two types of
change request categories in SAP Workbench organizer.
The "SYST" category contains ABAP development object and
general customizing. The "CUST" category contains objects
relevant to client specific cutomizing.
Lastly, when changes have been made, and the change tasks
have been released, the change request can be released.
Transportable change requests are released to the transport
system. The transport system exports the objects and keeps
a log of all transports. To display change requests, user
can choose the following menu or simply go to transaction
SE09.
NO,You cant release the change request with releasing task.

STEP BY STEP?
Landscape is like a server system or like a layout of the
servers or some may even call it the architecture of the
servers viz. SAP is divided into three different lanscape
DEV, QAS and PROD.
- DEV would have multiple clients for ex: 190- Sandbox,
100- Golden, 180- Unit Test.
- QAS may again have mutiple clients for ex: 300Integration Test, 700 to 710 Training.
- PROD may have something like a 200 Production.
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 everytime. 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) client. This is a
configuration only client. Now upon a successful tranport
by the Basis guy, you have all the 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 practised 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 wanna call
it that) or you may rather call it the 'ultimate' reference
client for all the good, complete and final configuration
that is being used in the implementation.
In summary:
Landscape : is the arrangement for the servers
IDES : is purely for education purpose and is NOT INCLUDED
in the landscape.
DEVELOPMENT ---> QUALITY ----> PRODUCTION
DEVELOPMENT : is where the the consultants do the
customization as per the company's requirement.
QUALITY : is where the core team members and other members
test the customization.
PRODUCTION : is where the live data of the company is
recorded.
A request will flow from Dev->Qual->Prod and not backwards.
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.
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 develpoment is done is development client and
the request is transported to production.
These three are landscape of any Company. They organised
their office in these three way. Developer 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.

Answer
#1
WHY WE HAVE SELECT EXTERNAL CHECK BOX IN ASSET ACCOUNTING
NO. RANGES.?
Reason is like this..
i)As per ECC 6.0 of SAP documentation, we should not select
External Check box at the time of Number Range Intervals.
ii)earlier version like 4.7EE(up to version 4.7EE)-External
check box should be selected.
iii)If we select External check box,at the time of posting
the document,we have to specify what should be the Document
number.
iv)There is an exception to this for Depreciation postings.
v)when we run Depreciation,system will post number of
entries automatically based on Depreciation accounts
assignment to account Determinations.
vi)We have assigned depreciation accounts for account
determinations.
-suppose our a/c determinations like this.
ACCOUNT DETERMINATIONS
ibm99996
ibm99997
ibm99998
ibm99999
ASSETS
buildings
plant&machinery
furniture&fixtures
vehicles
The above 4 account determinations we have give number
range intervals like this.
NO.RANGE
18
YEAR FROM A/C TO A/C EXTERNAL CHECK BOX
2011 800001
900000
SELECT.
-In normal postings (F-02),when we are posting a document
,we can post only one document at a time.
-In case of depreciation postings , system will generates
no.of documents at a time automatically based on the
depreciation account assignment to account determinations.
system take no.range intervals like this when we select
external check box.
800001-Depreciation a/c Dr.
To Accumulated depreciation buildings
800002-Depreciation a/c Dr.
To Accumulated depreciation plant&machinery
800003-Depreciation a/c Dr.
To Accumulated depreciation furniture&fixtures
800004-Depreciation a/c Dr.
To Accumulated depreciation vehicles.
-like above 4 entries are generated at a time when we select
External check box.
-But in normal postings we are posting a document ,we can
post only one document at a time.

uppose I have one asset. I want to post depreciation for first 6 months 2 shifts and second 6 months 3
shifts. How do u configure this in asset accounting? explain me?
Answer
#2
Yes you configure shift depreciation in the system. First
you need to activate the Shift factor field in the asset
master data. Here you can define the shift with proper time
interval.
Secondly you need to set variable depreciation portion in
the depreciation area to 100%.
Thirdly You need to derive the shift factor based on the
rate specified in the key assigned to the asset.
for example Rate for single shhift - 10%
Double shift 15%
Tripple shift - 20%
Let us say you have assigned single shift rate in the asset
then
Shift factor for single shift => 1
Double shift - 15/10 => 1.5
Tripple Shift - 20/10 -=>2
I hope it solves your query.

: What is difference between TAXJIN & TAXINN?
Answer
#1
Select Tax Calculation Procedure : In this IMG activity,
you specify which tax procedure you want to use for
determining excise duties and sales taxes on input
materials in India.
If you use condition-based excise determination, use a copy
of the tax procedure TAXINN.
If you use formula-based excise determination, use a copy
of the tax procedure TAXINJ.
This tax procedure also supports condition-based excise
determination, so that you can work with both concurrently.
SAP strongly recommend that new customers use conditionbased excise determination. Note that once you have started
using a tax procedure, you cannot switch to another one,
otherwise you will not be able to display old documents.

a. Business Scenarios: If you are using classic GL there is
a possibility your chart of account can have large number of
accounts. Since you want to capture every level of details
the chart of accounts grows in size. With New GL what you
are trying to do is maintain fewer number of accounts and
still get to same level of details. They way you implement
this is by allowing a single GL account to be used in single
or multiple scenarios (there are 6 scenarios).
Asset module analogy will make it much easier. You maintain
different books (depreciation area). Say you have 3 book
areas 10, 20 & 40. When
capitalization/acquisition/retirement/sale happens; each
business processes impact these books differently based on
the dep. area setting.
b. Document Splitting: Lets say you buy office supplies for
your company (say 5000 p.m). Now your company wants to see
how much was spent on papers, cartridges, copier, markers
and etc. With document splitting you are able to break down
the 5000 p.m. to 2000 (paper) 1000 (cartridges) 1000(copier)
1000 (markers).
Basically its the ability to see the details at minutest level

My company has 2 mode of payment method. 1- is resudial method and 2. is partial method. Now the
scenario was I have to clear the customer, which haven't made payment within the specified time, in that
case I have to charge interest on that customer. Now, the question is that which mode of payment should
I follow to clear that customer.What will be the appropriate payment method inrespect of company rules?
and plz. give the reason.
Answer
#1
Normally in the company's when the are clearing the payment
they will use standard payment so in your company if u dont
have that option or else rights then payment need to pay
like last partial payment bcoz residual payment will use
when agreement will closed, so at last residual payment
will use for reagreement not for payment clearing.

what is the use of special periods. can any body explain with examples i.e. by doc. posting with date and
all header data please?
Answer
#1
Special period is used for tax adjustment and for year end
audit adjustments.
For example, if after or during the audit, the auditors
determine that some material expense/revenue has been
accounted for incorrectly in the past, and adjustment or
reclassification may be necessary to retained earnings but
must be accounted for in the current year. A special period
(13) is reserved for such entries.

what is open item management? Can i change reconciliation account while posting transaction? if my
client require what to do?
Answer
#1
Open Item Management determines that open items are managed
for this perticular gl account to which you want to manage
open items.
You can not change reconciliation account while posting the
transaction. But you can change the reconciliation account
in the vendor or customer master records if there are no
postings happend to the perticular reconciliation account.
If you would like to change the reconciliation account as
per client requirement, first you have to transfer the
balance of this reconciliation account to the new
reconciliation account and then you can enter this recon
a/c in the master record.

What is document spliting?
Answer
#1
Document splitting enables a complex display of documents.
Line items are split here for selected dimensions. This
ensures that 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 legal requirement (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 that
incurred the costs. Assets can also be subsequently
capitalized at the time of posting.
Implementation Considerations
You need to make settings in Customizing and other
preparations for document splitting.
Integration
Document splitting has an effect on subsequent processes
such as closing operations and on processes in Controlling
(CO).
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.
Document Splitting Process
For document splitting to be possible, the system
classifies individual document items and the documents.
This takes place using your settings in Customizing. Each
classification corresponds to a splitting rule in which it
is specified how document splitting is to occur and for
which line items.
SAP delivers a set of standard splitting rules. You can
also define your own rules.
For an example of the document splitting process, see
Overview of Document Splitting Process.
Subfunctions of Document Splitting
The following functions are part of document splitting:
Passive document splitting: Clearing and similar
processes
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 ensures
that the characteristics produce a balance of zero in each
document by creating clearing lines.
Active document splitting: Splitting a document
In this subfunction, the line items are split according to
the settings in Customizing (the classification and
assigned splitting rule).
Subsequent processes
Clearing, for example, realized exchange rate
differences
In this subsequent process, you can also post resulting,
realized exchange rate differences with the CO account
assignments that incurred the costs.
Closing operations, for example, foreign currency
valuation
You can carry out closing operations according to the
defined document splitting characteristics.
Displaying the Split Document
You can display a document as follows:
In its original form in the entry view
Split from the view of a ledger in the general
ledger view and with the generated clearing lines
How the document is displayed in the general ledger view
depends on whether the ledger to which you want to post
contains the document splitting characteristics to be
applied in document splitting.
Constraints
You can only use document splitting for documents that can
be uniquely assigned to a business process. The relevant
correlation is unclear when there are multiple business
processes within one document (see also active document
splitting).

Instead of using GR/IR clearing account why cant we use provision for sundry creditors, if yes then why
SAP using GR/IR Clearing Account
Answer
#2
SAP uses the GRIR clearing a/c as it doesnt want to accept
a liability by crediting the vendor a/c.Aliability can be
accepted only when the goods have been recieved and the
invoice checked.When the invoice is recieved, GRIR is
debited, the vendor a/c is credited & thus we can accept
liability with the vendor.

what is the 'o' and '9' level dunning? can any one please specify the names of each 9 dunning level?
Answer
#2
Every time you can dun a customer you are crossing
one level of dunning. Though you can dun upto a maximum of
nine times , you would normally resort to legal help after
dunning three or four times, at the most. The number of
dunning levels you need can be configured and theoretically
it ranges from 0 to 9 levels ( 0 if your company is run by
an inefficient management which does not bother to collect
money on time and 9 if your management is too liberal with
your customers

What is leading and non-leading ledger in the new Gl configuration?
Answer
#1
Leading Ledger:
The leading ledger is based on the same accounting
principle as that of the consolidated financial statement.
It is integrated with all subsidiary ledgers and is updated
in all company codes. You must designate one ledger as the
leading ledger.
In each company code, the leading ledger automatically
receives the settings that apply to that company code: the
currencies, the fiscal year variant, and the variant of the
posting periods.
In New G/L, there is one leading ledger for each client
that is valid for all company codes.
The accounting standard to be used in the leading ledger
needs to be decided first.
This assignment cannot be deactivated once it has been
defined.
You can only define one ledger as a leading ledger.
SAP provides the leading ledger 0L as standard.
Only the leading ledger is integrated with CO. Values from
the leading ledger are updated in CO.
Non-Leading Ledger
The non-leading ledgers are parallel ledgers to the leading
ledger. They can be based for example on local accounting
principles
You must activate a non-leading ledger by company code.
For each ledger that you create, a ledger group of the same
name is automatically created.

e: why we are using the Planning levels in SAP FI (FS00 for G/L master day ) Plz check and send the
replaymail
Answer
#1
Planning Level
The planning level is used to control displays in Cash
Management.
To improve the display of the cash position and liquidity
forecast, you should reserve levels that start with "F"
or "B" for automatically updating data during posting. F
levels should be used for bank accounts, customers, and
vendors, and B levels for bank clearing accounts.
Examples:
F0: Main Bank
FF: down payment requests
B1: bank clearing accounts, outgoing checks
B2: bank clearing accounts, bank collection
Z1: Cash
Z2: Loan
When displaying the cash position, you can then see because
of level F0 that the amounts are posted to the bank
account, whereas the other levels show planned bank account
transactions, which include entered payment advices or
postings to bank clearing accounts. You can then use the
display to compare planned date with actual data.
In addition, you should reserve levels, for example, all
levels beginning with X, to represent postings with payment
blocking indicators in the liquidity forecast. When
displaying the liquidity forecast, you can then see because
of these levels that the displayed amounts are postings
with payment blocking indicators.
General notes on accounts, or planning groups, and planning
levels:
Accounts/groups and levels enable you to look at data two
different ways.
Accounts/groups answer the who question.
Which (major) customers or suppliers?
Which customer or supplier group?
Which bank account or bank clearing account?
Levels answer the how question.
How information was entered into the system
(posting or payment advice or planned item)?
How an amount is posted (normal posting or special
G/L transaction)?
How accurate information is
o
With amounts in the "outgoing transfers" level, you
know the exact date on which the account is debited, but
with amounts in the "outgoing checks" level, the date on
which the account is debited is uncertain.
o
In levels for MM and SD, both the amount and the
planning date are more uncertain than the amount and date
in FI postings, since the vendor may, for example, deliver
only a subset or the delivery may be delayed. In addition,
the system always displays MM amounts without taxes in the
liquidity forecast (in purchase orders, tax is not
displayed if it can be deducted; in purchase requisitions,
it is never displayed).
Where are cash management levels assigned in the system?
In G/L accounts, you define the level in the company-codespecific part of the master record.
For accounts receivable and payable, you define a standard
level in the cash management and forecast group.
At this time, you can define different levels for the
following applications and activities:
Locked items
Special G/L transactions
Payment requests
Purchase orders and purchase requisitions
Orders
Agency deals
Loans
Securities
Money market, foreign exchange, derivatives
Real estate
Earmarked funds
The levels defined should be unique - meaning you must not
define the same level for more than one application or
activity as this may affect the clarity of the display in
the cash position or liquidity forecast. It might also
adversely affect the function for jumping from these
transactions to the correct application or line item
display.

What is planned and unplanned depreciation?
Answer
#1
The depreciation can either be planned or unplanned.
Planned depreciation is one which brings down the value of
the asset after every planned period; say every month,
until the asset value is fully depreciated over its life
period. With this method, you will know what the value of
the asset at any point of time in its active life.
On the contrary, unplanned depreciation is a sudden
happening of an event or occurrence not foreseen (there
could be a sudden break out of a fire damaging an asset,
which forces you to depreciate fully as it is no longer
useful economically) resulting in a permanent reduction of
the value of the asset

e: What is the differance between Leading,non leading ledger in 6.0 with parlell ledger in 4.7? how it will
useful in 6.0 then 4.7?
Answer
#1
Leading ledger
1.It is a base ledger, which updates the cost center and
consolidation.2.You can define only one ledger as the
leading ledger SAP provides the leading ledger "0L".
3.The currency of the leading ledger is always used as the
first currency.4.The leading ledger is integrated with all
subsidiary ledgers. 5.Only the values from the leading
ledger are sent to CO. 6.The leading area in Asset
Accounting (depreciation area 01) must be posted to the
leading ledger. 7.Leading ledger uses the (additional)
local currencies assigned to the company code. 8.Leading
ledger uses the GL Total Table: FAGLFLEXT.
Non-leading ledgers
1.Non-leading ledgers are activated by company code.2.You
can define additional currencies that deviate from those
used by the leading ledger.3.As a second and third currency
of a non-leading ledger, you may only use currency types
that you have already assigned to the relevant company code
for the leading ledger.4.You can define a fiscal year
variant that differs from the leading ledger. If you don't
specify a FYV, the FYV of the company code is automatically
used.5.You can also define a posting period variant that
differs from the leading ledger.6.Separate document types
and number ranges can be defined for non-leading ledgers by
users, to ensure continuity in ledger numbering.7.Nonleading ledger updates the profit center, segment.8.The nonleading ledgers are used as parallel ledger together with
the leading ledger. This can be used to apply different
accounting standards, such as IAS/IFRS or US-GAAP
What is meant by Short period Posting?
Answer
#1
Normally, A fiscal Year contains 12 Posting periods, May be
a Calendar year ( Jan - dec)or a financial year (Apr - Mar),
And if Your company set up is Less than that of 12 posting
periods, for eg: U R starting a company in the middle of
the Financial year (Probably on July), then You have to
calculate your periods as 9 excluding Apr, may, jun.This is
Called as Short end period.
Generally, less than that of 12 periods is called as short
end period Postings.........

what F.13 represents? and how we utilize in SAP?
Answer
#1
Each of your G.L / Customer / Vendor Accounts may in due
course contain many debit and credit line items ( with equal
monetary value and therefore netting the balance to zero)
which may remain open.
You would find it wiser to knock the debit and credit items
and clear them all. Such clearing helps in archiving such
line items , frees system memory thereby making your system
run faster.
This kind of offsetting existing debit items with credit
items within an account is called account clearing. You
could do it manually wherein you need to select an account,
pick and match all debit and credit items and clear them
manually. This becomes a cumbersome process when you have
too many items requiring clearance and the problem is even
more cumbersome when you have many accounts requiring such
an exercise.
SAP has the provision to automate the process and it is
called AUTOMATIC CLEARING. F.13 is the T.Code for Automatic
clearing ( It uses an in-built program called SAPF124).
However, to perform automatic clearing the system would
check that debit and credit items within an account have
the following common criteria:
Document Date, Posting Date, Currency, G L / Customer /
Vendor Account , as the case may be , Amount , Company Code
etc.
Apart from the above criteria, you can also configure 1 to 5
more criteria for matching and clearing. This is handled by
the T CODE OB74. You can configure separately for G L ,
CUSTOMER AND VENDOR ACCOUNTS.
Basically, F.13 ( Automatic Clearing ) is a time saver to
match similar debit and credit items within an account and
make the system clear them automatically.

Answer

You creat a group chart of account for your company and
assign the same to all new GL when open or alter all the GL
for assigning the same. When you open a new GL there is a
field for assigning the group chart of account. Since in
your company code 10, there is no operational chart of
account so your country chart of account is your
operational chart of account. In which you also applied
the same method

What are the noted items..How can we create? what are the advantages of Noted Items?
Answer
#1
The company normally requires the customers to secure their
credit lines with bank guarantees, cash bonds, personal
guarantees and even letters of credit. Some of these
documents however require monitoring since they usually have
expiration period.
The system provides monitoring of these noted items by
allowing the user to create noted items for a particular
customer. This would help the user monitor all these expiry
periods, special notes, and other information the user
deemed necessary to ensure full implementation of company
controls.
These noted items given by customers will increase the
credit exposure as well.
But BG/LC given to the customer by the company will not
affect the credit exposure.
The document entry of Noted Items is created by using T-Code
F-49. Using Special G/L indicator G for Bank guarantee and
L for Letter of Credit when noted items are received from
customers.
When BG is given to customers Special GL indicator Y maybe
given.
A special item that does not affect any account balance.
When you post a noted item, a document is generated. The
item can be displayed using the line item display.
Certain noted items are processed by the payment program or
dunning program - for example, down payment requests.

Hi, If we have 10 company cocodes, in which we created 9 operative chart of accounts for 9 company
codes and for last company code we created contry chart of accounts and we assign all company codes
to one group company... can we get the reports for 10 company codes ?
Answer
#1
look all the 10 companies are having co code and these all are
can be assinged in one company for example reliance is a
company and reliance technology, petrol, chemical etc are
the co.codes and these all are the part of it.so that we
create the company reliance and we create these all as a co
codes.
We can also see this in: spro > img > enterprise structure >
definition >financial accounting>copy delete co code
>structure>navigation> and select the company and
Yes all the company codes are having individual chart of
accounts. And at the same time country chart of accounts
cannot be overlooked so it can also be treated as operative
chart of accounts. So you can as well assign all 10 chart
ofaccounts to the group company. But!!!
To get the reports you should certienly see that the when
creating the GENERAL LEDGER (FS002) THE GROUP COMPANY GL
ACCOUNT CODE IS ASSIGNED TO IT.Trial balance (S_ALR_87012277).
In F110 - Automatic Payment Program, while setting parameters we need to put " Posting date for next
payment run". Please explain what is the significance of putting that. Why is that required to be put?
Answer
#3
This date is needed in order to check the due date of
payables. If item is already overdue on the date of the next
payment run or would lose cash discount, the system pays the
item in this payment run.
The significance of " Next pmt run" in F110 is to consider
the cash discount according to your Payment term.
system will deduct the cash discount automatically if your
next payment run date falls under payment term paramete

In G/L master records there is a field( in control tab)'alternate account number'. What is required to be
filled in that field?
Answer
#1
To carry out cross-company code controlling between
different comapany codes, all company codes should use the
same operational chart of accounts.
(This is an alternative to using a group chart of accounts
where it is not possible to do cross-company code
controlling if companies are using their different
operational chart of accounts)
Company codes that nevertheless require a special chart of
accounts for external
reporting have the following option:
• A country chart of accounts is assigned.
• The country chart of accounts number (alternative account
number) is entered in every company code segment. Every
country chart of accounts number can only be used once.
Note: Since all company codes use the same operational
chart of accounts for postings, you can carry out crosscompany code controlling
Note that this field is also freely definable and can be
also used to enter a legacy account number.
Re: In vendor Invoice posting will be done by the MM people by using MIRO T.code than what about f43... What is the difference between these two T.Codes? In real time Which T-code will be used?
Answer
#1
T Code MIRO is used via MM when Goods/Services are
involved. T code F-43 is for non-PO based invoices which
are generated in FI only eg : One time service or Intercompany invoices, etc.
In FI-MM integration we assign the Valuation modifier, and valuation class and G/L Account? from where
and how the values of stock will come and post gl account. what is the job of the valuation class..and
movement type ... where we give the movement type.. valuation modifier means valuation area group
code, where we will give this indicator..
Answer
#1
In T code OBYC we will assign all the things. ie.,
valuation grouping code, valuation calss, General Modifier,
Gl Account no.
This valuation class is maintained in the material master.
We can assign different "Material types" to "one GL
account" and / or Different "GL accounts" to one "Material
Type" with the help of Valuation class.
Values of stock are changed in accordance to the
transaction and its GL account in OBYC. Material unit
price is maintained in Material master. When CO and PC are
activated, the cost of the material is updated from cost
estimate that is assigned in the material master under
controlling tab.
Movement types are assigned by SAP system to diferent
different transactions (EX: migo, Miro, MB1B)
Re: Chart of Accounts are created at client level or company level or company code level ? How many
chart of accounts can we assign one company code(not operative,country and group)?
Answer
#4
Hi,
You will create Chart of Accounts at Client lever.
Only one Chart of Account can assign to one Company code.
You can assign same Chart of Account to many Company codes,
but you can not assign more than one Chart of Account to
one company code.COA we need to create company code level and only one COA
we need to assign to one company but the same COA we can
assign to more then one company codes.Chart of Accounts are created at Client level.You have to
Assign a chart of accounts to each company code.
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.
