Paradigm Shift for Developers Calculation

Application Layer

Database Layer

Calculation

In traditional applications (especially from SAP), the database is largely used as a data store mechanism only. Massive queries bring large amounts of data back to the application server for processing. Lots of application execution time is spent in the application server looping over records and performing exclusions, calculations, etc. With HANA, the key to the best application performance is pushing as much of the logic execution into the database as possible. We now “trust” the database. Keep all the data intensive logic down in the database as SQL, SQLScript, and HANA Views.

Learning Objective

After completing this lesson, you will be able to:

 Explain the idea and concept of the Universal Journal  Explain how SAP safeguards the customer investments  Outline the most important architectural changes in Simple Finance  Understand the Universal Journal entry  Outline the Appendix Ledger functionality

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Scenario

You want to understand in detail the underlying architecture changes to the SAP ERP application from the installation of the Simple Finance On-Premise Edition 1503. You want to understand the potential benefits these changes bring and also make sure your custom developments won’t be disrupted with the migration.

SAP Accounting Architecture Rational

A true single source of truth for all accounting components.  Reconciliation is a topic of the past bringing large cost and time savings.

A simple but holistic data model.  HANA can be leveraged in the best possible manner bringing unprecedented insight (in both speed and content!).

The universal journal combines and harmonizes the good qualities of all accounting components.  The simplification of the application is a required step and a great foundation for further enhancements.

Non-disruptive innovation and simplification.  SAP strives to provide a true next generation application with the least possible disruption, safeguarding customer investments and processes.

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Multiple sources of truth (1/2)

No profit center & no G/L account in Asset Accounting Totals

Material Ledger does not store G/L account and Profit Center

Different level of detail due to the ‘999’ document lines limit e.g. 1:n documents FI/CO

G/L and Profitability updated at different business events on different entities (e.g. account)

Separate components due to technical restrictions in the past (without HANA) © 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Multiple sources of truth (2/2) Challenges of the architecture before Simple Finance

Challenges:  The combined content of several tables represents “the truth”. Reconciliation efforts are needed by architecture.  Different level of detail stored in the respective components/tables  Components are structured differently (e.g. fields/entities differ)  Need “to move” data to the appropriate table for reporting (e.g. “settlement”)  Different capabilities in the components (customer fields, currencies, multi-GAAP etc.)  Multiple BI extractors needed to cover the complete truth in BI.

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

New Architecture – Universal Journal as the Single Source

 One line item table with full detail for all components. Data stored only once, so no reconciliation needed by architecture.  Fast multi-dimensional reporting on the Universal Journal possible without replicating data to BI. If BI is in place, one single BI extractor is needed.  Reduction of memory footprint through elimination of redundancy.  Technical preparation done to enhance important structural capabilities of the Financials solution (e.g. multi-GAAP, additional currencies) © 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Non-disruptiveness

Existing programs and interfaces can still be used access via compatibility views:  Read access from custom ABAP programs or reports to prior tables will work as before  Read access is automatically re-directed to the universal journal as the new single source of truth  All programs with write access to those deleted tables replaced by CDS views will make trouble and can´t be used anymore without adaption. Remove all write accesses in by views replaced tables. Use the code inspector to find all affected parts of the code (see note 1976487).

Learning Objective

After completing this lesson, you will be able to:

 Understand the Universal Journal entry  Outline the Appendix Ledger functionality

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Scenario

You want to understand the new posting logic within the accounting component. You are interested in understanding how the journal postings are handled from the various components and whether the unification into a central finance limits the flexibility you have associated with your management accounting processes.

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Universal Journal Entry

 The new journal entry consists of a header (table BKPF) and the respective items (table ACDOCA) – There are rare cases, where entries in ACDOCA are written without a respective document header (e.g. carry forward, corrections in migration). These entries do not represent standard business processes. – The corresponding line items have ‘artificial document numbers’ beginning with letters (e.g. ‘A’).

    

ACDOCA table contains all fields needed for G/L, CO, AA, ML, PA All cost elements, including secondary cost elements are G/L accounts Multi-GAAP capability through “RLDNR” dimension 6 digit field for line item numbering 23 digits for currency fields

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Document Numbers in Simple Finance

 Since the system now writes only one journal entry for all of the components G/L, CO, AA, ML, one document number is sufficient from a business point of view. The journal entry consists of a header (BKFP) and items (ACDOCA). The respective document number (BKPF-BELNR/ACDOCA-BELNR) must obey the legal rules of Financial Accounting. As a consequence, the document number is dependent on the fiscal year and the company code.  CO document numbers have not been year dependent. Material ledger document numbers have not been dependent from the organizational unit (e.g. company code). Both numbers did not have a legal relevance. Moreover, ACDOCA has a 6 digit field for the document line, whereas COEP has only a 3 digit field. This is still used in many user interfaces and reports. For compatibility reasons, SAP offers a new transaction number for every 999 document lines.

Prima Nota in Simple Finance

 The Prima Nota is the source document that triggers the creation of Journal Entries. The Prima Nota is the single anchor that allows e.g. to reverse the complete process triggered by the Prima Nota.  The Prima Nota keeps the information that has been entered to the system, before derivations, enrichments, splits etc. take place in Accounting in order to create Journal Entries.  In many cases the Prima Nota is a document outside Financials. Examples are Expense Reports, Invoices, Payroll documents.  For posting within the Financials world a Prima Nota is needed as well.

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Prima Nota per Financial Component

 For classical FI postings (FB01, FB50, FB60, FB70 etc.) the Prima Nota is still stored in table BSEG and the corresponding Journal Entries (can be several due to the multi GAAP capability) are written to table ACDOCA.  For classic (manual) CO postings the Prima Nota is still written to table COEP. The corresponding journal entries are written to table ACDOCA. A Prima Nota is written as well in cases, where “CO” is triggered via BAPI interfaces (AWTYP AFRU, CATS)  For allocation postings (assessment, settlement etc.) no Prima Nota is required and data is written to table ACDOCA only. The allocation process has its own history management (for example canceling an allocation journal entry)  Material price changes (MR21) or Material Debit/Credit (MR22) create a Prima Nota in the material ledger (tables MLHD, MLIT etc. ). The respective journal entries are posted to ACDOCA.

 Understand the motivation for the Central Finance solution  Get an overview of the Central Finance solution  Explain implementation options and requirements

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Scenario

You are managing a complex and varied ERP system landscape. You want to find a solution to improve financial reporting and processes, both in speed and accuracy. A large transformation and migration project to completely new systems is out of the question due to time, cost, complexity and business continuity requirements. You want to understand if and how the SAP Central Finance solution can help transform and modernize your Finance reporting and operations.

 Central process execution

missing economies of scale, no shared services

 Business model pressure

organic and non-organic growth mandate

 Heterogeneous IT landscapes

unyielding to modernization or transformation

 SAP and non-SAP ERP systems

high consolidation, harmonization, reconciliation effort

 Relational database designs

data duplication, data redundancies

 Productivity & Effectiveness

The Central Finance Solution Central Finance helps companies report on financial figures sourced from different systems. These systems might be running Classic G/L, new G/L, or might not be SAP at all. They probably have different customizing settings and un-harmonized master data: With the Central Finance solution , there are three interfaces that feed data from the source systems into the target system’s Accounting Interface.  An interface for reposting FI/CO postings: Financial documents that are posted in the source system get reposted as new FI documents in the central finance system. If these postings are relevant to CO (expenses on cost elements), CO will be updated, too  An interface for reposting CO postings: This interface reposts CO postings where the CO document is the loading document. In contrast to the interface for FI/CO postings, these are postings that are not necessarily reflected in Financials in the source system (sometimes only for reconciliation purposes). For example, postings on secondary cost elements.  An interface for replicating certain cost objects (such as production orders, internal orders, QM orders etc.). The posted documents are stored in the universal journal of the SAP Simple Finance system. It is possible to take advantage of new G/L features within SAP Simple Finance as well as the ability of flexible reporting based on line-items instead of pre-aggregated totals. Furthermore beautiful Fiori User Interfaces and reporting tools can be used in the Central Finance. Reporting with the speed of HANA is available on lineitem levels.

Deployment

 A Central Finance can be established on-premise or in the cloud.  In a cloud deployment scenario data is replicated using the same mechanisms used in on-premise installations (SLT). The respective SLT portions will have to be available on both, the sending (on-premise) and receiving system (cloud).  Non-SAP reporting and analytics (as well as additional SAP Simple Finance or partner products) need to be connected to the cloud instance or be made available within the cloud installation as required.  Special considerations in the cloud scenario include but are not limited to wide area network (WAN) throughput and firewall/security requirements.

Implementation

Realization  Implementing the Central Finance is not a “ERP-from-scratch” effort; and could be as low 10 - 15% of a traditional ERP implementation effort and duration  Most if not all business processes most likely already exist in one of the existing SAP systems and can be re-used / re-applied. Lessons learned from previous implementations can be incorporated.  The actual roll-out effort varies based on data harmonization applied, business transformation desired, and the number of systems and processes touched

Roll-out  Incremental - based on processes, business areas and source systems selected  Not a typical ERP implementation - No Big Bang !!!

Timeline  Phased in quarterly (milestone-based) increments; first roll-out possible in as little as 3 months

Skills / Resources  Basis/Admin (system setup, security setup)  Technical (HANA / HANA Live / SLT replication, ABAP)  Functional (configuration, processes, master data, data harmonization) © 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Restrictions

 Centrally executed processes must not result in back-postings to the source systems in order to maintain the integrity (completeness etc.) and legacy system status of those systems.  The amount of configuration, customizing, and master data synchronization required in the central instance depends on the type of process desired. Many scenarios, especially core GL scenarios, are achievable with limited effort. More complex scenarios, or scenarios beyond (core GL) Finance might be challenging or in selected cases not feasible.

Understand the possible starting points for migration



Give a brief overview of the migration process

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Scenario

You are currently running a system on classic G/L, new G/L, or Simple Finance 1.0 and want to upgrade to use the functionalities of the latest version of the Simple Finance add-on. You want to know if your current system configuration meets the prerequisites and what kind of changes will you need to prepare for.

From where can I migrate to Simple Finance?

SAP Accounting in Simple Finance On-Premise Edition 1503

New SAP customers starting with SAP S/4HANA will take over their legacy data using classic migration tools. The SAP Simple Finance migration tools work only for existing customers/system. Depending on the active applications in the source system, different preparation steps are relevant. The description can be found in the SAP online help.

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Migration to the Simple Finance Add-On is Fast and Easy

 The duration and effort is relatively small. It can be executed at any period end.  It is supported by a migration guide and monitor.  No New G/L (or other) Migration Service is needed to migrate to SAP Accounting powered by SAP HANA  Migration scope is comparable to migration to new G/L scenario 1 (Merge of the FI ledger)  Changes to coding blocks, external interfaces, security, reporting etc. are optional

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Classic General Ledger Migration Constraints

Migration to Accounting on HANA from a classic G/L setup does not support the following scenarios: •

Implementation of Document Splitting



Balance Sheets at the Profit Center Level



Migration from Special Purpose Ledger to New General Ledger Accounting



New Implementation of Parallel Accounting



New Implementation of Segment Reporting



Implementation of the Ledger Approach for Parallel Accounting



Change in Chart of Accounts and Conversion of Chart of Accounts



Inclusion of Customer Fields



Transfer of Quantities to New General Ledger Accounting

Note: If you have started or are in the planning phase to start a migration to new GL using the SAP General Ledger Migration Service, SAP recommends that you complete the new GL migration project before installing the Simple Finance Add-On.

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Length of the Migration Project It is not possible to make an exact statement here. Factors that could influence the duration: •

Support from the customer themselves (how many people, how quickly can you set up a test system etc.)



Experiences of project members and consultants



Quality of data, size of the system etc.(Migration of a system with goLive 2013 might obviously be easier than a system with goLive 1996.)



A delta migration scenario is planned to optimize (minimize) downtime.

The first test migration will give a good first impression for the duration and potential setbacks during the migration project

Learning Objective

After completing this lesson, you will be able to:  Understand the new master data maintenance model  Explain the handling for Asset and Material accounts  Understand the impact on authorizations and the posting period lock

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Scenario

You have traditionally kept G/L Accounts separate to your Cost Elements. With the move to Simple Finance you will now only maintain G/L accounts, you want to understand how this works on the system architecture level and also how this might impact your processes for master data maintenance and other transactions.

Cost Element Categories for G/L Accounts from Type ‘Secondary Costs’

Accounts of type ‘Secondary Costs’ can be used only for internal CO allocations.

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Cost Element Category 90 for Balance Sheet Accounts in Financial Accounting “Statistical” cost elements of category 90 are created automatically when: 1) You create a Balance Sheet G/L Account. 2) The Account Group is one used for fixed asset or material accounts. 3) The account is a reconciliation account for assets or material. 4) The accounts have been setup in the Asset or Material management account assignment. 5) You select the checkbox “Apply Acct Assignments Statistically in Fixed Asset Acct / Material Acct”.

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Account Determination for Asset and Material Accounts  You add the account in the Asset account assignment in the field “Bal. sheet account: Acquisition and production costs” (T095-KTANSW).

 For a material account you can check, if this account is defined as a material account in Customizing under Configure Automatic Postings. Choose Goto  Account Assignment. Here you choose the line ‘Inventory posting’. On the next screen there should be an entry for your account for the relevant valuation modifier and valuation class.

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Impact on Default Account Assignment

In SAP Accounting a default account assignment can be defined only using transaction OKB9 or through substitution rules. Default account assignments maintained in former cost element master data are migrated to transaction OKB9 as part of the migration process.

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Impact on Authorizations

The merge of cost elements and G/L accounts requires adjustments to authorizations for creating cost elements:  If you want to maintain accounts of the account type Primary Costs or Revenue, you need to have authorization to create or change cost element master data.  If you want to maintain accounts of the account type Secondary Costs, you need to have authorization to create or change G/L accounts.

To check or change the authorizations, use transaction PFCG. The standard delivered SAP Role is: FUCN_GL_ACCOUNTANT (G/L Accountant) The relevant authorizations are:     

Controlling, CO-CCA: Cost Element Master (K_CSKB) Financial Accounting, G/L Account: Change Authorization for Certain Fields (F_SKA1_AEN) Financial Accounting, G/L Account: Account Authorization (F_SKA1_BES) Financial Accounting, G/L Account: Authorization for Company Codes (F_SKA1_BUK) Financial Accounting, G/L Account: Authorization for Charts of Accounts (F_SKA1_KTP)

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Effect on Period Lock In SAP Accounting CO relevant postings do not check only the CO Period Lock as in the past but as well the GL period opening/closing. Therefore you have to allow postings to accounts from account type ‘Secondary Costs‘ in the GL period opening/closing. Period Lock FI in SAP Menu Financial Accounting

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Period Lock CO in SAP Menu Controlling

Period Lock in CO In CO you need to specify which transactions you want to lock, and for which periods. Example: you lock periods 1 and 2 against actual overhead assessment postings. All other postings in this periods are allowed!

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Period Lock in FI In FI you need to specify which accounts for a specified account type you want to allow for postings, and for which periods and fiscal years. Example: you allow postings for all G/L accounts (account type S) for a specified timeframe. All other postings (other accounts or periods) are not allowed! In SAP Accounting it is also necessary to open accounts from account type Secondary Costs for FI postings.

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Fiori Application for Period Lock

In the Fiori application you can in addition lock the period per ledger, especially useful for working with appendix ledgers. A single unified maintenance should be available in the future.

Managing Ledgers in SAP Accounting powered by HANA

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved.

Learning Objective

After completing this lesson, you will be able to:  Understand the enhancement to Ledgers with the Universal Journal  Configure Ledgers in SAP Simple Finance

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Scenario

You manage multiple parallel accounting principles in your system and need to be able to report on each separately. You also are afraid that with the universal journal, the previously independent components lose some of their flexibility being bound by the legal restrictions of financial accounting. You want to understand the Ledger capabilities with SAP Simple Finance and be able to configure ledgers to meet your needs.

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

The Universal Journal enforces discipline

G/L

“Periods cannot be open and closed at the same time”

“I have to close the fiscal period” Universal Journal

CO

“I want to post despite closed periods in G/L” © 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

“I have to close the fiscal period”

How can we offer flexibility in our solution without reintroducing a reconciliation issue?

Requirement: Unified and flexible solution

Extension e.g. for specific management adjustments or realignments

“Appendix”

Unified FI and CO (e.g. according to IFRS) “Standard” (”Base”)

 “On top” - usually manual postings.  Report on extension always includes the embedded “Standard” to provide the full picture  Less strict rules (e.g. different period lock)  Use of standard FI/CO UI’s and reports.  “Appendix” authorization needed .

 “Regular” universal journal entries serving FI, CO, AA, ML, with e.g. IFRS valuation.  Posting of consistent standard processes.  Strict standard rules (e.g. standard period lock) have to be obeyed

Several extensions possible to one “base”: More flexibility than previously through FI and CO separation

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Appendix Ledger – Basic Idea Each specific ledger is self contained, has a special purpose and provides a specific view on financial data. A ledger usually stores a lot of redundant data to other ledgers. With Appendix Ledgers you can “staple” ledgers on top of each other, providing the different views you need. This minimizes the data footprint and provides new flexibility for easily creating additional views.

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Appendix Ledger – Use Cases Universal Journal

Appendix Ledger A “Post into closed periods for restatement purposes”

Appendix Ledger B “Distribute revenues differently on org units than in legal view”

Appendix Ledger C “Adjustments for consolidation purposes”

 An appendix ledger stores delta values and points to another ledger – thus providing a flexible mechanism for adjustments and reporting.  An important use case is for management views on top of legal data.  Besides creating a master record, appendix ledgers need no additional configuration.  Reporting on the appendix ledger always includes the data of the base ledger (in the figure: IFRS ledger).  Multiple appendix ledgers can point to the same base ledger.  Benefit of reduced data footprint and zero reconciliation effort as only delta values are kept.

Ledger IFRS Ledger Local GAAP

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

 Appendix ledgers are stored in the universal journal – same as “normal” ledgers.

The transaction data is “mapped” to the corresponding Ledger © 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Technical implementation of the read access

Postings into the Appendix Ledger

ACDOCA

 ACDOCA stores the data for all appendix ledgers.  BSEG does not store any appendix ledger data.

CO: KB11N PCA

RWIN FI: FB01L FI-SL

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

 Implementing the BADI BADI_FINS_APPL_RELEVANCE allows to feed components like PCA, FI-SL, EC-CS with the data posted to appendix ledgers. This functionality should be handled with care. It is up to the implementation in the BADI to clearly separate appendix ledger data from the other data.

The new and the old Ledger master  The Universal Journal ledgers have own master records  The new master record key FINSC_LEDGER-RLDNR is technically compatible with the FI-SL/New G/L ledger key (T881-RLDNR)  The FI-SL technology is used in a lot of components (FI-SL, EC-PCA, New G/L, Public Sector etc.).  Parts of this technology has been enabled for the Universal Journal ledgers. Both “worlds” can be mapped e.g. via the function modules G_GET_LEDGER_INFO and G_GET_ORGANIZATIONAL_DATA. The modules have a compatibility mode that might help customers to leverage their own code for Universal Journal ledgers.

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

 BSEG summarization works and can be used as usual. BSEG is used for storing open item and clearing details, thus you can be quite aggressive with the summarization.  ACDOCA stores the full detail that is needed for all components that base on ACDOCA (G/L, AA, ML, CO, PA).  Summarizing BSEG “aggressively” will bring relief with respect to the 999 line item limitation (BSEGBELNR has only 3 digits). This can be done, since ACDOCA stores the full detail and ACDOCA has a 6 digit field for line item numbering.

Master Data Maintenance for Ledgers

 Posting Period Variant – Defines open periods – Basis for check of leading ledger / representative ledger in ledger group

 Parallel Accounting using G/L Accounts – Flag switches off the check, that Ledger / Company is assigned to max. one Accounting Principle

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Assignment of Accounting Principle to Ledgers per Company Code Third Level  Assignment of Accounting Principle to Ledger / Company Code  By default you assign one Accounting Principle per Ledger / Company, unless you use Parallel Accounting with the GL Account Approach.

Learning Objective

After completing this lesson, you will be able to:  Outline the features of new Asset Accounting in SAP Accounting powered by SAP HANA

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Scenario

You want to find out more about new asset accounting to understand if there are benefits beyond the fact that it is a requirement for the SAP Simple Finance OnPremise Edition.

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

New Asset Accounting and SAP Accounting on HANA

 New Asset Accounting is the only Asset Accounting solution in SAP Accounting on HANA, classic Asset Accounting is not available any more

 Configuration and activation is on the client level.  Both multiple valuation approaches are possible: Ledger Approach and Account Approach  Usage of the new Depreciation Calculation Engine is mandatory (based of extension EAFIN)

Technical Changes to the Tables Actual items ANEK

ANEP

ANEA

BKPF ACDOCA

ANLP

ANLC

 Actual data of ANEK, ANEP, ANEA, ANLP, ANLC is now stored in table ACDOCA. ANEK data is stored in BKPF.  Compatibility views FAAV_ (e.g. FAAV_ANEK) are provided to enable non-disruptive reporting on old tables  After migration: access to content of old tables is still possible via views FAAV__ORI.

Non actual items:

FAAT_DOC_IT FAAT_PLAN_VALUES FAAT_YDDA

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

 Statistical data (for example calculation for tax purposes) are now stored in table FAAT_DOC_IT.  Plan data (previously ANLP and ANLC) are now stored in FAAT_PLAN_VALUES  Year-dependent attributes of Fixed Assets are now stored in FAAT_YDDA.

Benefits from the Universal Journal integration

Fixed Asset Accounting based on Universal Journal:  No redundancy in data storage  Reconciliation between G/L and AA is ensured by design – No reconciliation-step in financial close needed anymore. – All non-statistical items are updated as Universal Journal Entries.

 Even after migration, reporting for previous fiscal years is possible due to compatibility views.  Transparent assignment of depreciation area to accounting principle  Depreciation posted with all details: Accumulated depreciation and depreciation cost by asset

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Benefits from Posting Logic Simplification

Auditability and simplicity:  Independent and complete depreciation areas of equal power – Simplified Chart of Deprecation: Only one depreciation area per valuation necessary – no further depreciation areas (Delta areas) necessary to portray a parallel valuation

 New document display: explain the detailed impact of any transaction to the books  New transactions for ledger group (depreciation area) specific documents  Flexible account determination

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Benefits from Changed Closing Processes

Simple close, fast close, soft close: Transparency throughout the period  Asset balances in real time - APC posting run not needed anymore  Plan values in real-time – updated with every master data change and every asset transaction.  Elimination of reconciliation steps  Fast depreciation posting run due to simple processing logic, new data structures and parallel processing  Navigation and drilldown per accounting principle  Posting to different periods possible (restriction: beginning/end of FY needs to be equal)

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Out of Scope for new Asset Accounting

The new architecture prerequisites are  Usage of the New Depreciation Calculation Engine is mandatory

The new architecture does not support the following feature (and vice-versa)  Joint Venture Accounting (JVA) (officially released for ledger-solution via Business Function as of EhP6) (1)  Lease Accounting Engine (LAE)  Real Estate Classic (RE Classic)  Public Sector Management – Funds Management (PSM-FM) using requests (2)  Application Link Enabling (ALE): transfer of assets  Transaction “Post transfer between depreciation areas” (ABUB)

(1)

Will be investigated to be supported in a future support package

(2)

A check is necessary to see if new Asset Accounting can be used with installed industry components

Learning Objective

After completing this lesson, you will be able to:  Understand the posting logic in new Asset Accounting

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Scenario

You want to understand the changes implementing new Asset Accounting brings for your end-users. You want to understand the posting logic with new Asset Accounting to be able to explain and use it.

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Posting Logic in new Asset Accounting

Universal Journal

The system generates several documents:  The Operational Entry Document posts to a technical clearing account. The Operational Entry Document does not update the asset values, the asset data is only used to perform checks.  Accounting principle specific documents (1 to n). The accounting principle specific documents post to: – the technical clearing account in each view (balancing to zero) – the asset reconciliation account (and update the asset line items) © 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Sample Posting – Ledger Approach

Both depreciation areas 01 and 30 will be posted to in real-time *

* Screenshot is a combination of two simulated entries

Result: 3 documents (Technical Clearing Account Acquisition = TCA)  TCA to Vendor (Ledger group blank and Account. principle blank)  Asset to TCA (Ledger group 0L and Account. principle IFRS)  Asset to TCA (Ledger group N1 and Account. principle LOCA)

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Sample Posting – Account Approach

Both depreciation areas 01 and 30 will be posted to in real-time *

* Screenshot is a combination of two simulated entries

Result: 3 documents (Technical Clearing Account Acquisition = TCA)  TCA to Vendor (Ledger group blank and Account. principle blank)  Asset to TCA (Ledger group 0L and Account. principle INT)  Asset to TCA (Ledger group LO and Account. principle LOC)

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Additional Information on Integrated Posting

 The technical account always balances to zero.  The operational entry document will be posted by the entered document type, the rest can be posted under a different document type (for example AA)  Accounting Principle specific documents will always be created  Using different reconciliation account per accounting principle is possible  Technical clearing account will be always posted, even if a certain accounting principle is not represented on the asset*.

* There is a small difference between ledger and account solution. The account “Contra account: Acquisition value posting” assigned in the account determination will be posted to instead of the Technical Clearing Account for secondary depreciation areas in the accounts approach. © 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Assets activated for specific accounting principles

Behavior during integrated asset acquisitions after deactivation of non-required depreciation areas:

The screenshot is a combination of two simulated entries © 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Assets activated in only some accounting principles e.g. in-house developed software  Only relevant accounting principles need to be represented on the asset (or on the asset class) by their corresponding depreciation areas  All postings issued within FIAA will only affect those accounting principles which are relevant for the involved asset(s).  P&L postings for all other accounting principles can be handled manually by the end user.  If a certain accounting principle is not represented on the asset by an area which posts APC online to general ledger, the posting will be re-directed to “Account for non-operating expense“ (field T095-KTNAIB)  If no accounting principle is represented on the asset by an area which posts APC online to GL, the system issues an error. This error message can be changed into a warning, in which case the statistical areas in FI-AA are updated.

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

New Settlement for Assets under Construction

 It is possible to assign the settlement rule for each line per depreciation area posting to the general ledger (transaction AIAB).  Accounting principle specific postings are generated from Controlling as well.

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

New and obsolete programs for FI-AA Changes after installation of SAP Simple Finance On-Premise Edition 1503:  Periodic APC postings: – RAPERBxxxx – obsolete and deleted

 Reconciliation postings: – RAABSTxxxx – obsolete and deleted

 Post depreciation – RAPOSTxxxx is replaced by program FAA_DEPRECIATION_POST

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Calculating and Posting Depreciations The determination of the depreciation values of an asset and the posting of depreciation expense takes place in the system asynchronously: 1. Calculate depreciation:  The planned depreciation is determined with each master record change and with each posting on the asset and updated in the database directly.

2. Post depreciation:  The depreciation run adopts the planned asset values and posts them in Financial Accounting.

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

New Depreciation Run How does the depreciation run work?  Planned depreciation is determined and updated with each asset master record change and each posting to the asset.  The depreciation run posts the pre-calculated planned values.  The journal entry is updated in financials on the asset level.  Period end closing can be performed even if there are errors on individual assets.  A test run can be performed but still with the restriction for 1000 assets.  The Selection screen is simplified as the “reasons for posting run” (planned depreciation run, repeat, restart, unplanned posting run) are no longer relevant.  .

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

No longer relevant

Simplified Selections

Further Topics Year end closing:  There is no separate balance carry forward needed in asset accounting, the general balance carry forward transaction of FI transfers asset accounting balances by default.  The most current planned depreciation values will be calculated automatically for the new year after performing the balance carry forward.

Resetting data (test data):  Resetting data in asset accounting should only be performed in case all Accounting data will also be reset.

Learning Objective

After completing this lesson, you will be able to:  Understand the customizing of New Asset Accounting  Perform the customizing for New Asset Accounting

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Scenario

Asset Accounting (new) has to be configured in your system with Simple Finance On-Premise Edition 1503. You need to be able to understand and execute the additional and changed customizing steps in new Asset Accounting.

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Required Customizing for New Asset Accounting

The following customizing steps and checks are required:  Check and create accounting principles and ledger groups.  Assign accounting principles to ledger groups for both approaches: – Ledger Approach – Account Approach

 For every additional currency type defined on the company code a corresponding depreciation area needs to be set up.  Account approach: Define Asset Balance Sheet Accounts of Parallel Valuation as Reconciliation Accounts.  Define account “technical clearing account” for integrated asset acquisition.

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Optional Customizing for New Asset Accounting

The following customizing steps and checks are required:     

Quantity update: define depreciation area. Integrated transactions: specify alternative document type for ledger postings. Choose between revenue distribution for retirement by APC or net book value. Post net book value instead of Gain/Loss during retirement. Make any Transaction Types that post to specific depreciation areas obsolete.

Chart of Depreciation All depreciation areas representing the same accounting principle will be assigned to the same accounting principle (and ledger group):

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Explanation of the Parallel Valuation Approaches Companies often reports the following accounting regulations:  International GAAP  Local GAAP  Tax GAAP

There are different objects to indicate these requirements:  Valuation areas (FI) are used for: – Closing activities like Foreign Currency Valuation, Sorting/Reclassification (New) or Further Valuations

 Accounting Principles are used for: – The New Asset Accounting to combine different depreciation areas to a accounting principle – Accrual Engine

 Ledger Groups are used for: – Manual postings in FI (e.g. FB50L Enter G/L Account Document for Ledger Group) – Manual postings in CO (e.g. KB11N Manual Reposting of Costs)

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Explanation per Approach to Parallel Valuation  Account Approach:

 Ledger Approach:

 All objects are linked via customizing. Combinations of n ledgers to one ledger group is possible, e.g. to post IFRS and US-GAAP together

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Depreciation area assigned settings

 You have to assign an accounting principle to each depreciation area, even to non-posting depreciation areas or to delta depreciation areas that are only for reporting. (The accounting principle is not allowed to be initial (blank).)  You can assign the same accounting principle to several depreciation areas, as long as the areas represent the same valuation.  For every additional currency type defined on the company code level, a corresponding depreciation area needs to be configured.

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

GL Update Settings for Depreciation Areas With Asset Accounting (New), the Posting Indicator supports five (4) different values. For the depreciation areas the Posting Indicator need to be adjusted.  The leading area of the leading valuation always contains the Area Posts in Realtime option.  The following applies to the ledger approach: The leading area of the parallel valuation also contains the Area Posts in Realtime option.  The following applies for the accounts approach: The leading area of the parallel valuation receives the option Area Posts APC Immediately, Depreciation Periodically (or Area Posts APC and Depreciation Periodically).

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Adapt value take over and parameter take over

Value take over can only be done within a set of depreciation areas which are assigned to the same accounting principle. Leading areas need to be set to 00. © 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Reconciliation Accounts (only for Account Approach) There is a program to automatically switch all accounts of parallel valuations to reconciliation accounts:

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

New account technical clearing account for integrated asset acquisition Characteristics of the new account “technical clearing account for integrated asset acquisition” as balance sheet account:

Balance behavior:  Ledger Approach: Always balances to zero per ledger group and account assignment.  Account Approach: Always balances to zero together with the account “Contra account: Acquisition value posting” in your financial statement.

Is defined as a reconciliation account, but not managed on line items. Different “technical clearing account for asset acquisition” for specific account determination are possible, e.g. to set different field status like for the text field.

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Quantity Update Define depreciation area for quantity update:  In the asset master data the quantity will only be updated in case a posting is performed to the depreciation area  In case this IMG activity is not manually maintained, the system will by default update the quantity when a posting is made to depreciation area “01”

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Document types for integrated transactions It is possible to indicate a different document type to be used by the system for the automatically generated accounting principle specific documents in asset accounting on the client level (use of document split can be a reason or external number ranges for FI-documents used by logistics invoice verification.

or on the company code level:

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Revenue distribution for retirement by APC or net book value for mass retirement

 In this step, you specify at company code level how the system is to distribute revenues arising from asset retirements: either based on the net book value or on APC. In the standard system, the distribution is based on the net book value.  Check the distribution of revenue for your company codes, and adjust the distribution to meet your requirements.  Customizing Menu Path: IMG: Asset Accounting (New) -> Transactions -> Retirements -> Gain/Loss Posting -> Define Revenue Distribution for Fixed Asset Retirement

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Post net book value instead of Gain/Loss

 In this step you specify that you want the system to post the net book value of an asset being retired to the account "Clearing of revenue from sale of assets" and "Clearing or revenue from internal sale". No profit/loss (from sale) or loss from asset retirement (after scrapping) is then posted.  Post Net book value (e.g. legal requirement in France – French Retirement): IMG: Asset Accounting (New) -> Transactions -> Retirements -> Gain/Loss Posting -> Post Net Book Value Instead of Gain/Loss  The restriction of the posting logic to certain depreciation areas was done in classic Asset Accounting using area types.

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Check Transaction Types  In new Asset Accounting, it is not possible and also not necessary to restrict transaction types to depreciation areas. You restrict posting to a depreciation area or accounting principle directly in the posting transaction.  If you were using transaction types that were restricted to certain depreciation areas, then you can no longer use these transaction types. Check whether your existing transaction types that are not restricted to depreciation areas are sufficient. Investment support and also revaluation and new valuation are an exception.

Exceptions:  The transaction types for investment support and revaluation are automatically generated by the system when you create a corresponding measure, and therefore are restricted to the depreciation area to be posted to.  The transaction types for revaluation and new valuation that relate to transaction type group 81/82/89 can continue to be restricted to depreciation areas.

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Marking Transaction Types as Obsolete  A task only required when migrating an existing system.  All transaction types, restricted to depreciation areas, should be set to obsolete.  Do not delete it.

ACDOCA COSP_BAK

COSS_BAK

 Actual data of COEP (Value Types ‘04’ Actual and ‘11’ statistical actual) is stored in ACDOCA  Required actual data for long running orders/projects from COSP_BAK, COSS_BAK is stored in table ACDOCA.  Currently, the header table COBK is written as before. The target is to replace COBK through BKPF.  Compatibility views V_ (e.g. V_COEP) are provided in order to reproduce the old structures.  Access to data in the old tables is still possible via the views V__ORI (e.g. V_COEP_ORI)

Non-actual items  Value types other than ‘04’ and ‘11’ are still stored in COEP, COSP_BAK, COSS_BAK © 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

CO Compatibility Views Provide Non-Disruptiveness

 In the figure, an example access to table COEP is redirected via the view V_COEP to the new Universal Journal Entry.  Any custom ABAP programs that read table COEP directly via select statements continue to run as before . © 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Cost Based COPA

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

 ACDOCA is posted via the Accounting Interface similarly to FAGLFLEXA (New G/L) in the past. ACDOCA stores full detail.  Former COEP, FAGLFLEXA, ANEP, MLIT etc. data are stored in ACDOCA.  BSEG is only written in case open item managed accounts are affected (e.g. usually for cross company postings).  PCA, FI-SL work as before. Where the FI-SL was posted via activity “COFI” (real time integration CO-FI), now secondary cost (G/L accounts) are posted directly and there is no mapping to a primary cost element.  EC-CS as before with New G/L real time integration, but now including secondary cost (G/L accounts). The system works directly with the original CO activities like RKU1 instead of using the activity “COFI”.  Cost based CO-PA works as before (with the SAP HANA accelerators of course).

Document type and Ledger Groups in Controlling  With Simple Finance CO processes are enabled to post into ledger groups and you can also specify the document type.  On the UI this is enabled for KB11N, KB41N and KB15N. Other processes can be configured in the IMG to post with ledger groups.

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

“BSEG”

PCA

EC-CS

Cost Based CO-PA

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

 ACDOCA is posted in any case taking the respective ledgers into account.  BSEG is only written in case open item managed accounts are affected (e.g. for cross company postings) and the ledger group contains the leading ledger.  Other components (PCA, FI-SL, Cost Based CO-PA, industry solutions like public sector and joint venture accounting etc.) are only posted, if the ledger group contains the leading ledger. The BADI BADI_FINS_APPL_RELEVANCE allows customers to overrule this behavior.

General Management Accounting Customizing  Align Fiscal Year Variants between controlling areas and the assigned company codes.  Define the document type for CO postings.  Define one or more Document Type Mapping Variants (pre-delivered: 000001) and assign these to the company codes.  Specify default ledger group – Ledger group is only for manual re-postings on the UI (KB11, KB41) – If no ledger group is entered in CO transactions the default ledger group is taken. – If no default ledger group is configured all ledgers are updated

 Define Intercompany Clearing Accounts for CO cross company postings

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Check and Adopt Fiscal Year Variants  The Fiscal Year Variants of all productive controlling areas and their assigned company have to be the same.  Example 1 FI: K4 Cal. Year, 4 Spec. Periods / CO: K1 Cal. Year, 1 Spec. Period

 Example 2 FI and CO: both Cal. Year, 4 Special Periods, but different keys

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Define Document Types for Postings in Controlling  This activity is the same one used in Financial Accounting to create document types. Controlling now uses document types when posting to FI as well. It is recommended to have a separate document type for Controlling postings with only the indicator “G/L account” set in the account type.  With the Simple Finance On-Premise Edition 1503 all Controlling business transactions use document types.

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Define Document Type Mapping Variants for CO Business Transactions Assign the document type for postings in Controlling to a document type mapping variant. You should copy the provided sample to a customer specific entry. The entry will be created automatically in case you already use real-time integration in new G/L The document types can be specified on the following levels:  Company code via different document type mapping variants  Controlling business transactions (for example KAZI – “Actual cost center accrual” can have a separate document type  Normal postings and cross-company postings can have separate types per business transaction as well.

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Ledger and CO – SAP Simple Finance Parallel actual versions are currently not supported:  Version 0 must be assigned to the leading ledger in all company codes assigned to the controlling area. Therefore CO reads from the leading ledger (reporting and allocations).  CO writes to the manually specified ledger group. In case no ledger group is entered and no default ledger group is set in customizing it is posted to all ledgers. Usually CO should write into Leading Ledger (because this is the source for reading).

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Check and Define Default Values for Postings in Controlling  Default settings are necessary for postings where there is no possibility to manually define the document type and leger group in the Controlling business transaction.  The major question here is “which ledger should Controlling update”

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Define Intercompany Clearing Accounts  Posting transfers between cost objects belonging to different company codes now update the Universal Journal and so you need to assign Clearing G/L accounts for the transaction and for each combination of Company Codes such postings occur.

Prerequisites



Create GL accounts for COGS and detailed COGS (e.g. COGS material COGS labor etc.).



Set up account determination for material movements by specifying transaction keys BSX (to determine the inventory account) and GBB (to determine the COGS/inventory change account).



Set up customizing for the refinement of COGS.



Ensure that the costing run is executed and prices in the material master are up to date.

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Refinement of COGS in SAP Accounting powered by SAP HANA – Customizing Steps



Create new G/L accounts on which you want to reflect the single cost components of the COGS posting.



Select your chart of accounts and enter every COGS account that should be refined.



Select the cost component structure and the cost component and assign it to a refinement GL account. One or more cost components can be assigned to one refinement account.



Tag one refinement account as the default account (flag ‚Default‘). Unassigned cost components are automatically posted to that default account.



Assign your splitting scheme to the relevant company code with a valid from date.

Explaining Profitability Analysis in SAP Simple Finance

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved.

Learning Objective

After completing this lesson, you will be able to:  Understand the improvements to Profitability Analysis with SAP HANA  Understand the specific innovations for Account based Profitability Analysis with SAP Simple Finance

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Scenario

You need analysis of profitability on the market segment level and flexibility to define your own reporting characteristics. You are interested in understanding the scope of the Profitability Analysis component in SAP Simple Finance and what options you have for implementing it.

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

The Purpose of Profitability Analysis The business purpose of Profitability Analysis (CO-PA) is to provide the company with profitability-oriented information on the performance of its market segments or sales channels. This information is used to support corporate planning and decision-making, especially in the areas of sales and marketing. CO-PA allows you to define market segments and performance figures, with maximum flexibility in market evaluation.  The definition of a market is configured in the system by selecting the characteristics that are the subjects of analyses.  Performance figures may be based either on profit and loss accounts (Account Based CO-PA) or freely-defined value fields (Cost Based CO-PA).

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Profitability Analysis with Simple Finance  Account-based CO-PA is the recommended approach.  Cost-based is fully supported but is not integrated in the Universal Journal.  You can use both approached in parallel, for ne customers you have to evaluate if there is a need for cost-based CO-PA.  For derivation of customer specific profitability attributes CO-PA offers advanced derivation functionality, this can be used for both types of CO-PA. For example: – Posting on cost center -> derives the product group through the CO-PA derivation tool. – Posting on Sales order item -> all Market segment information is already provided automatically.

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

HANA Acceleration of CO-PA – Report Execution In both types of CO-PA, you will see a great speed improvement in processing when comparing to a non-HANA DB system. CO-PA data quantity structure:

Refinement of COGS in SAP Accounting powered by SAP HANA – CO-PA Line Item

The cost component structure of Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) will be posted in the Account Based Profitability Analysis and Financial Accounting as well. The values are stored on line item level in the universal journal table (ACDOCA) and the accounts are updated on the basis of total costs. The COGS with fixed and variable cost will continue to be posted in the Costing Based COPA on different value fields. The contribution margin can be calculated in the Costing Based COPA. © 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

2. Selection of costs, status, configuration,… sequentially per object

3. Update results per object

Transactions: Settlement (CO88, VA88, KO8G, CJ8G), WIP at actual costs (KKAO), results analysis on sales orders (KKAK), variances with full settlement (KKS1), cost center variances (KSS1)

HANA-optimized approach 1. Selection of objects, costs, status, and configuration directly from database

2. Update results per object

New Transactions: Settlement (CO88H, VA88H, KO8GH, CJ8GH), WIP at actual costs (KKAOH), results analysis on sales orders (KKAKH), production variances (KKS1H), cost center variances (KSS1H)

Results Analysis for Sales Orders (Transaction: KKAKH) As a cost accountant dealing with the need to account for long-term contracts in the balance sheet, you need to run results analysis to prepare the appropriate postings for each accounting period. Depending on local legislation and sometimes corporate guidelines, the degree of progress towards completion is measured based either on the revenue or the incurred costs. Severe performance issues can occur due to the volume of sales order items to be handled in each period.  In the first release, KKAKH supports two commonly used methods 01 revenue-based RA and 03 cost-based RA (out of 17 methods).

Not supported:     

Some expert methods Customer enhancements; Other 15 methods (Besides 01 and 03 methods); Multiple result analysis versions See SAP Note 1939621 for further details

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

WIP Calculation (Transaction: KKAOH) At period-end close, the production controller calculates the value of the work in process for the unfinished products. The number of production orders to be processed can result in long-running jobs.  KKAOH values production orders only, at actual cost for the selected plant with defined legal valuation for a single result analysis version.

Not yet supported:     

Customer enhancements; WIP calculation for product cost collectors; WIP calculation for process orders; Multiple result analysis versions See SAP Note 1939621 for further details

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

WIP Calculation: UI Differences between KKAO and KKAOH  The buttons “With Product Cost Collectors” “With Process Orders” and “All RA Versions” are suppressed.  Collective Processing is only valuated at actual cost with Production Order for selected plant by single version.  You can only choose “With Production Orders” and a single version in the screen.

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Business Scope: Variance Calculation for Production Orders (Transaction: KKS1H) Cumulative variance calculation compares the target costs with the cumulative control costs.  The target costs are calculated by adjusting the standard costs for the actual quantity delivered.  The control costs are calculated by subtracting the work in process and the scrap variances from the actual costs.

Currently product cost collectors, production orders and process orders are supported but only target version 0 is supported Refer to SAP Note 2027639 for details of further limitations

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Business Scope: Variance Calculation for Cost Centers (Transaction KSS1H) Variance calculation for Cost Centers provides you with detailed cost information at the activity level. The variance calculation function does the following:  Shows the variance between target costs and control costs (the control costs can be the net actual costs, for example)  Determines the difference between the actual costs debited to the object and the credit from other controlling objects(total variance)  Show how the cost is split at the activity level  Categorize the variance into the different variance category

The system updates the variances by object for each cost element, or for each cost element and origin.

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Settlement Transactions Costs that arise from processing an order, or project (for example, costs for material, personnel or external services) are transferred to the settlement receiver specified in the settlement rule in the master record of the object. Both the selection statements for order and project settlement and for the generation of project settlement rules have been reworked to improve performance. With SAP Simple Finance, a mass settlement run can be executed in the foreground, where you used to only be able to perform background processing. Note that to use the new transactions (CO88H, VA88H, KO8GH, CJ8GH) you will need to create new selection variants that offer less selection options than the original selection variants. If the new variants do not meet your requirements, then you can of course continue to use the existing non-optimized transaction.

Supply Chain: “Where/when am I going to source this new product?”

What Does Integrated Business Planning for Finance (IBPF) Do?  Enables the financial planning capabilities provided by SAP Business Planning and Consolidation to be seamlessly integrated in SAP ERP user interfaces and workflows, effectively replacing the current planning capabilities in SAP ERP.  Overcomes limitations when planning in ERP through the SAP GUI  Eliminates Data replication.  Retracts Plan data developed in SAP Business Planning and Consolidation to SAP ERP for variance analysis and SAP Business Planning and Consolidation will be able to access real time master data and actuals maintained in SAP ERP.  Provides end-to-end simulation capabilities.

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Why Use IBPF?  Integrated Business Planning for finance comes embedded with the SAP Business Suite on SAP HANA where SAP Simple Finance is being utilized.  Provides significant functional off the shelf content including templates and calculations covering multiple planning scenarios  Allows Companies using traditional financial planning within ERP to rapidly implement while protecting their existing investment. (Minimizes cost and time to implement)  Takes advantage of HANA views that support direct real time access to ERP Master data and the FI-CO document tables.  Optimal for organizations who have a significant portion of the data upon which they perform planning within the SAP ERP on HANA system and are planning against “traditional” FI and CO data structures yet at the same time provides for truly integrated planning across finance.

© 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved

Functional Advantages of IBPF SAP Hana Driven Line Items  Fast plan data reporting and plan/actual comparisons  Fast plan data processing through planning functions of PAK (Planning Application Kit)

Integrated FI and CO  Unbeatable bottom-up and top-down planning capabilities integrating data from high level expense group level down to most detailed market segmentations  Plan data are available at any level without the need of replication between applications

Seamless upgrade possible:  CO Historic Plan Data can be migrated to the new solution (currently not GL).  Existing Plan Data processes remain unchanged (Tariff Calc., Allocations & Distributions, …)

Enhanced Reconciliation Capabilities  Same granularity as in General Ledger: Every plan data record (even if it has been recorded at a higher level) is stored on company & account level.  No distinction between G/L Accounts and Cost Elements: Reconciled by Design
