 Simple Data Structure means

▰ No need for reconciliation between FI and CO & AA and GL

▰ Accelerated Financial close due to elimination of steps for reconciliation of sub
ledgers
▰ No more long-running batch jobs at the end of a period/quarter
▰ Reduced lead time for Development of Custom Reports
▰ Aggregates are created dynamically based on line item table instantly

13
 Advantages of New Asset Accounting

▰ The concept of Parallel ledger now extended to Asset Accounting

▰ You can record the leading valuation of Asset Accounting in any
depreciation area
▰ No longer necessary to take over APC values (OABC) or depreciation
terms from Depreciation area 01(OABD)
▰ Actual values for both the leading valuation and parallel valuation
posted in real time
▰ No need of delta depreciation area to post differential cost (ASKB)
▰ Valuation specific posting to the required accounting principle
▰ Choice of ledger based approach and account based approach
14
Asset Acquisition for differential cost per AP

• Differential cost for

specific accounting

cost elements separately
• No time dependency for cost
elements any longer
• No default account assignment in
cost element master data
• Cost element types remain.
Secondary cost elements are only
posted from CO allocations
• Default account assignments
maintained in cost element master
are migrated to OKB9

Alternate Tcodes in S4 HANA

▰ Transaction code FS00 has been extended and changed to cater the
changes all the changes in S/4 HANA in regard to GL Transaction
code such as KA01, KA02, Ka03, KA06 have been removed.

▰ S_ALR_87012326 - S_ALR_87012333
S_ALR_87012328 (GL List of Items)
▰ S_ALR_87012174 - S_ALR_87012173 (List of customer Items)
▰ FI12 FI12_HBANK (House Bank Maintenance)
▰ FAGL_ACTIVATE_OP ZFINS_SWITCH_TO_OPEN_ITEM (SE38)

Same Transaction for FI/AA
Balance Carry Forward
▰ Balance Carryforward:
T.code – FAGLGVTR
• Single transaction for FI /AA
balance carry forward , easy
access to balance carryforward
details.
• The program creates line items for
each G/L account and account
assignment.
• Repeat run can be performed by
doing Reset balance carryforward
• Carryforward results can save
with save result list option
• Historical Records can displayed
through Results Lists pushbutton

24
 Extension Ledgers

▰ This is an extension to the leading/non-leading ledger known as Base Ledger

▰ Adjustment entries can be posted to this ledger without influencing the base
ledgers
▰ We can define several extension ledgers on the same base ledger
▰ Only manual entries can be posted
▰ The extension ledger inherits reporting from base ledger
▰ Can be used to create management views of alternative “what if” scenarios

25
Profitability Analysis

▰ Account based COPA is the

default solution and a
prerequisite for simplified
profitability analysis
▰ Costing based COPA is still
available and untouched. We
can use both types of COPA in
parallel
▰ Cost and revenue information is
always current and permanently
reconciled with the income
statement
▰ COGS and Variance split is now
possible in account based COPA

COGS Split with Account Based COPA

Real-Time Overhead Calculation

• Overhead Calculated as soon as

Production order is confirmed
• No need to execute period end
overhead calculation
transactions like KGI2 and
CO43.
• Overheads will be calculated
on the basis of costing sheet.
• System will create separate
overhead document
• Recalculation and reposting of
overhead possible .

29
 ▰ Many period close
transactions have been
optimized for S/4
Enhanced CO Month End Closing HANA

Transaction description ECC S/4 HANA Enhancement

Settlement (plant selection)     CO88 CO88H accelerate settlement process for prod order, process order and
Product cost collector
Settlement (make-to-order sales VA88 VA88H accelerate  sales order settlement process
orders)
Settlement (internal orders) KO8G KO8GH improves the system performance considerably in the month end
Settlement (projects) CJ8G CJ8GH Accelerates project settlements
Results Analysis) KKAK KKAKH Supports only POC method or revenue-based
WIP Calculation at Actual Costs KKAO KKAOH Accelerated WIP calculation (on actual cost ) for production order
Variance Calculation w. Full KKS1 KKS1H Now we can get the production variances each to a separate GL
Settlement account
Variance Calculation for Cost KSS1 KSS1H Same functionality but optimized for S/4 Hana
