When you post items to a subsidiary ledger, the system automatically posts the same data to the general
ledger. These reconciliation accounts ensure that there are no differences between the balance of G/L account

to transfer totals from the sub ledgers to the general ledger.
You have to specify a reconciliation account in every vendor master record.

Cost Elements
A cost element describes the nature and origin of costs. Cost Elements are defined as either Primary or
Secondary. Profit & Loss Accounts in Financial Accounting are created with corresponding Primary Cost
Elements in Controlling. G/L accounts which are Primary Cost Elements would require a compulsory cost
object whenever these accounts are credited or debited in the Financial Accounting.
Secondary Cost Elements are used exclusively in CO for the purpose of carrying out processes affecting CO
like allocations and settlements.

The Activity Type classifies the specific activities that are provided by one or more Cost Centers. If a Cost
Center provides activities for other Cost Centers, Orders, Processes, etc. then it implies that its resource is
being used. The costs of these resources need to be allocated to these receivers of the activity. Activity Types
serve as the tracing factors for this cost allocation. To plan and allocate the activities, the system records

the value of the material by the quantity of material in stock. It is recalculated automatically by the
system after each goods movement or invoice entry.
These two types of price control differ in how they handle price variances resulting from goods receipts or
invoice receipts
Valuation using a standard price has the following features:
All inventory postings are carried out at the standard price
If a material is assigned a standard price (S), the value of the material is always calculated at this price. If
goods movements or invoice receipts contain a price that differs from the standard price, the differences are
posted to a price difference account. The variance is not taken into account in valuation.
Valuation using a moving average price results in the following:
The price in the material master is adjusted taking into account the delivered price.
If a material is assigned a moving average price (MAP), the price is automatically adjusted in the material
master record when price variances occur. If goods movements or invoice receipts are posted using a price
that differs from the moving average price, the differences are posted to the stock account; as a result, the
moving average price and the value of the stock change.

General Ledger is the sub-module in which all of the financial accounting data for the legal entity is recorded
either manually or automatically through integrated processes. Business transactions with a financial
accounting impact are posted to the General Ledger sub-module on a real-time basis either directly or through
integration from other modules and FI Sub-modules. Posting of entries in the general ledger are made using
the accounts as defined in the ABC Operating Chart of Accounts. The Financial General Ledger will allow
Hyderabad Chemicals Limited:
Automatically and simultaneously post all sub-ledger items in the appropriate general ledger accounts
The general ledger will serve as a complete record of all business transactions for ABC. It is the centralized,
up-to-date reference for the rendering of accounts. Using the general ledger, Hyderabad Chemicals Limited will
be able to check any financial transaction in any general ledger account in real-time processing by displaying
the original documents, line items, and transaction figures at various levels.

New General Ledger in the SAP system offers a powerful feature known as document splitting. With document
splitting, accounting line items are split according to specific characteristics. You can create financial
statements for entities such as Segments and meet legal requirements.
You can use the document splitting procedure to split up line items for selected dimensions (such as receivable
lines by profit centre) or to effect a zero balance setting in the document for selected dimensions (such as
segment). This generates additional clearing lines in the document. Using the document splitting procedure is
the prerequisite for as well as an essential tool for drawing up complete financial statements for the selected
dimensions at any time.
You can choose between displaying the document with the generated clearing lines either in its original form in
the entry view or from the perspective of a ledger in the general ledger views.
Example 1: Invoice
Suppose a vendor invoice containing the following items is entered:
Posting Key
Account
Segment
Amount
31
Payables
-100
40
Expense
001
40

Document splitting then creates the following document in the General Ledger view:

Using the document splitting procedure, you can also create a segmented display of a (partial) balance sheet
according to a set of legal requirements (for example, IAS) or according to areas of responsibility.

principles

Concept of Ledger
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.
Non-Leading Ledger
The non-leading ledgers are parallel ledgers to the leading ledger. They can be based for example on local
accounting principles
For each ledger that you create, a ledger group of the same name is automatically created.
For general-ledger account postings that have a specified cost centre, the system always reconciles the profit
centre and general-ledger account simultaneously
Two views of the new General Ledger:
Regular entry view
General-Ledger View
Segment Reporting
IAS/IFRS/US GAAP requires Segmental reporting. Segment is provided in addition to Business area / Profit
centre. It is one of the standard account assignment objects available for running analysis below the company
code level.

G/L Account number The G/L Account created for Hyderabad Chemicals Limited in the operating Chart of
Accounts 1000 will be used while posting Documents.
Amount All amounts shall be converted to the Company Code currency INR if the Document Currency is a
foreign currency.
The Assignment field (alphanumeric, up to 18 characters) is updated automatically with the data from the field
referenced in the Sort Key field of the general ledger account. The Assignment field will be used to sort line
items during general ledger line item display and Automatic Clearing. A value in the Assignment field can also
be manually entered.
Since it is posted at the Company Code level, where balanced financial statements are ensured, a document
can only be posted if the debits equal the credits. In the system, a document is created for every business
transaction and receives a unique document number. Document number ranges are defined per company code
and are assigned to each document type in the system. Number ranges will be defined for each fiscal year.
6.1.2
Fast entry screens are used for quick entry of transactions having multiple line items. Fast entries screens may
be best used when majority of the fields are suppressed for a particular business process transaction. This
would simplify the procedure of document entry by adopting a simplistic screen for document entry.
Entries in the fast entry screens would have similar validations at the time of posting as compared to a normal
transaction entry screen. The users can use the fast entry screens for transactions with multiple line items.

Fast entry screens may be best utilised for general ledger / customer / vendor transactions having multiple line
items.
SAP enjoy transactions provide for a viable alternative for fast entry of transactions. The advantage of using
enjoy transaction over fast entry is that posting keys which control the debit/credit need not be entered
6.1.3
Recurring Entries
Recurring entries are business transactions that are repeated regularly, such as rent or insurance. This acts as
standing order that we give to the bank to deduct rent, premium payments, or loan repayments. You enter this
recurring data in a recurring entry original document. This document does not update the transaction figures.
The recurring entry program uses it as a basis for creating accounting documents.
In the recurring entry document, you define when a posting is to be created with this document. Postings can
be made periodically or on a specific date:
For periodic postings, specify the first and last day of execution, as well as the interval in months.
To post recurring entry documents, you have to set up a separate number range for the company codes that
use them. You have to use key X1 for the number range. The system takes numbers for the recurring entry
original document from this number range.
6.1.4
Sample Documents
Sample documents acts as templates when manually entering a document. The use of sample documents is
beneficial if you need to enter many documents that are similar to each other.
We can use sample documents as reference documents entered specifically for this purpose. Sample
documents have a separate number range. When you enter and post a sample document, the system stores
the document, but does not update any transaction figures. They serve merely as data sources for an
accounting document.

Parking Documents
Information entered as part of a parked document is only checked as to whether it exists. Only a few fields - for

The authorization checks carried out for document parking are basically the same as those made for standard
document entry and processing. Instead of the activity "posting", the activity "parking" is required for document
parking. Necessary authorizations will be assigned which differentiate between users who only have parking
authorization and those who can park and post documents.
The required entry fields defined using the field selection strings in the Posting Key and G/L Account Field
Status Group are reduced to the status of optional entry fields.
No tolerance checks will be carried out while parking a document. Though Account Assignment models can be
used, Reference Documents will not be available for Document Parking. Substitutions and validations will not
be supported while parking a document, but will be supported when parked documents are completed and
posted.

Parked Documents will not update transaction figures but can be included in Document Journals and in the
reports for line items. Cash Management data will however be updated with the preliminary posting.
When a parked document is saved, a message containing the document number is displayed. Since these
numbers are assigned in the same way as the standard document posting function, the posted document will
retain the parked documents number.
6.1.6
A parked document can be changed and gradually completed. A large number of header and item fields can be
changed during this process, including the amounts. Certain values that cannot be changed are the currency
and the company code. The data in parked documents is deleted when they are posted, a document is written
to the document database and the appropriate data (transaction figures etc.) is updated. The number of the parked
document will be transferred to the posted document.
Parked documents can also be deleted. The Document No. of the deleted Parked Document cannot be
reused. A document which has been parked by one user can only be posted by another user.

Process Overview
Clearing process in R/3 system may be automatic or manual.
Automatic Clearing clears the transactions in an account based on user defined criteria. Automatic
clearing is generally used for clearing bulk transactions. Manual clearing would clear all other
accounts.
Manual Clearing can be done in 2 ways
Partial Clearing
Residual Clearing
6.1.8
Partial Clearing
Partial Clearing is used in a business scenario where a part payment is either received or made for a customer
or vendor open item.
If the Partial Clearing is used, R/3 system would post a line item in credit for the payment received. The system
however, does not clear the invoice till the entire invoice amount is cleared. Till the invoice is cleared all such
line items are shown as open items.
However the disadvantage of using partial clearing method is that both the items i.e. the invoice and the part
payment remain open items. Hence the ageing analysis shows skewed results as the invoice amount debit is
shown from the invoice date and the part receipt amount is shown as credit received from the receipt date.
6.1.9
Residual Clearing
Residual clearing is also used for clearing open items in case of part payment etc.
Revision Date: Tuesday, December 22, 2015
PAGE:
69 of 207
SUPERSEDES:
In case of residual clearing R/3 system clears the open line item to the extent and generates a new line item
for the balance receivable. The default baseline date for the new document would be Residual document date.
During the clearing, the residual amount i.e. the balance amount needs to be entered against the original open
item.
6.1.10
Validations will be used by Hyderabad Chemicals Limited to ensure integrity of data at the time of transaction
entry. Combination of specified criteria will be checked for validity before posting a document. With validations,
you can check values and combinations of values as they are being entered while posting documents. As data
is being entered, the system validates the data against the validation rules. Because data is validated before it
is posted, only valid information enters the system.
6.1.11
An account assignment model is a pattern for document entry. For posting the various monthly closing entries,
multiple account assignment models will be used to enter items in list form using screen templates. The
posting in the account assignment model does not need to be complete. The blank fields will have to be filled
when the model is actually used.
The account assignment model will be primarily used to post transactions to general ledger accounts rather
than sub-ledger accounts. At the time of posting, the account assignment model can be called up multiple
times within one document to add the same line items over and over again. Other account assignment models
can also be used in the same posting. In addition, more line items can be added manually and the preassigned fields can also be changed.

Accounts Receivable
Accounts Receivable is the sub-module in which the financial accounting transactions involving customers are
recorded and administered. All postings in Accounts Receivable are also recorded simultaneously in General
Ledger. The components of Accounts Receivable are closely integrated with components of Sales and
Distribution and Materials Management which will support an automated sales cycle.
Document type used for accounts receivables RV, DR, DA, DG, and DZ
6.2.1
The billing document is a document which supports the creation of customer invoices, credit or debit memos,
and the recording of the financial impact of these transactions in the general ledger. In ABC, the Billing
Document or Sales Invoices created in Sales & Distribution Module will automatically create an Accounting
Document. The Accounts Department shall as part of the closing process verify that the policies in respect of
Revenue recognitions have been followed for the Sales Invoices. The Billing Document and the Delivery
Documents in respect of the Sales Invoices which do not meet the Revenue recognition criteria will be
cancelled / reversed.
As a result of the creation of a billing document, integration to the Financial Accounting module occurs with the
automatic creation of an accounting document containing the following accounting entries:
Debit to the customer account (sub-ledger) and the appropriate general ledger reconciliation account
assigned to it
Credit to the appropriate general ledger revenue account
The Payment Term maintained in the Sales Area segment of the Customer should be the same as in the
Accounting Document. Consequently no changes in the Payment Term will be allowed while creating the Sales

credit-sensitive field for the purpose of Credit Management. Consequently, any change in the Payment Term
would block the Sales Order for Delivery automatically.
6.2.2
The receipt of payment from a customer is the final step in the integrated sales cycle. Hyderabad Chemicals
Ltd, will process customer payments by clearing open items in the Customer Account. Posting of an incoming
payment will create an accounting entry, which will debit the appropriate general ledger cash account and
credit the appropriate customer account. At the same time, a credit is posted to the general ledger
reconciliation account assigned to the Customer Account. A partial payment leaves the original invoice intact
and creates a credit in the customer account for the amount of the partial payment. No items will be cleared as
a result of a partial payment.
All incoming payments shall be routed through the Checks under Collection clearing account and the amount
shall be transferred to the main Bank Account upon the realization of the check. The Checks under Collection
G/L Account shall be open-item managed so that the details of checks in clearing can be seen from the openitem list.
In case of dishonor of check, the Customer Account shall be manually "Blocked for Delivery. This block shall
not restrict new Sales Orders from being created but all subsequent deliveries including deliveries in respect of
earlier created Sales Orders cannot be processed for that Customer.
The incoming payment document shall thereafter be reversed which will clear the item in the Checks under
Collection Account and the Customer Invoices shall again be open. Bank charges for such dishonor shall be
recoverable from the Customer for which Debit Notes shall be issued to the Customer.
If there is any difference in payment and if such differences are within the tolerance limits, such differences
arising out of under or over payment shall be posted to separate G/L Account. All the Customers shall have the
following tolerances for payment differences; the lower limit between them would be valid.

G/L Account for bank charges.
The receipt of Post Dated Checks (PDC) will be handled differently by Hyderabad Chemicals Ltd, since such
checks cannot be considered at the time of receipt of the check as a realized payment. Hyderabad Chemicals
Ltd, will keep all PDC received by it in the custody of the bank in a safety locker till the instrument date i.e. the
date of the check. Hyderabad Chemicals Ltd will be using Special G/L Indicator n for this purpose so that the
normal Accounts Receivable Reconciliation G/L Account Balances are not affected. Instead the alternate
Reconciliation G/L Accounts balances will be updated with the PDC amounts when the Customer Account is
credited with this Special G/L indicator. A separate G/L Account shall be used to represent the Checks in Hand
which shall be debited at the time of receiving such PDC.
When the check is deposited in the bank on the instrument date, the Check in Hand Account is cleared with the
posting to the Checks under Collection G/L Account. The amount shall be transferred to the main Bank
Account upon the realization of the check. The normal open item shall be cleared against the special item in
the Customer Account subsequently to reflect the correct receivable amounts.
In case of dishonor of check, the Customer Account shall be manually blocked for delivery and all the payment
documents reversed.

Firstly, the payment by bill of exchange is posted using the Special G/L Indicators and used to clear the
receivable against the customer.
The two special G/L Indicators that will be used are:
W for certified and without recourse Bills of Exchange
A bill of exchange receivable is recorded on the customer account and the special G/L account. The bill of
exchange receivable is posted to the customer account and reduces the receivables from goods and services
on the reconciliation account. The bill of exchange receivable is also automatically posted to the special G/L
account for bills of exchange receivable in the general ledger. The existing bill of exchange receivable at any
time can be monitored via the customer account.
The special G/L account for bill of exchange receivables will show the total amount of bill of exchange
receivables that exist for the customers represented in this account. Bills of exchange receivable are not
canceled until they have been cleared.
A credit memo
will only be prepared if the corresponding invoice was created and sent out to the customer.
A credit memo
will not be created if the invoice has not been sent to the customer, as user is able to cancel the original
invoice, reversing the relevant G/ L entries and create a new invoice.
For credit memo with reference to AR invoice, the credit memo must be created with reference to the original
invoice in order to correctly reflect customer outstanding balance. This is done by updating "Invoice Reference"
field during the creation of the credit memo.

Bills of exchange are also discounted by Hyderabad Chemicals Ltd, at a bank in advance of its due date
(discounting) and bears cost in the form of interest (discount) and handling charge. If the bill of exchange is
used for refinancing and is passed on to a bank, then the bill of exchange usage is posted. In the general
ledger, the bill of exchange recourse liability is managed until it has expired in separate G/L accounts that
offset the entry in the bank account.
The bill of exchange liability will be automatically posted to the specified bank sub-accounts. These bank subaccounts which can be posted automatically only shall be managed with line item display and open item
management to enable Hyderabad Chemicals Limited to monitor the current bill of exchange liability. Any bank
charges borne for discounting shall be automatically debited to the G/L Account for Bank and Finance
Charges.
Once the due date has been reached and the protest period as per law has elapsed, the bill of exchange
liability will be manually reversed. This is done by clearing the Bill of Exchange Receivable in the Customer
Account whereby the Special G/L Account is offset against the Contingent Liability Account.
In case where the Bill of Exchange amount has to repaid to the bank due to dishonor by the Customer, the Bill
of Exchange liability and usage is cancelled and payment documents are reversed. The original Customer
Invoice shall once again be open.

Hyderabad Chemicals Ltd will send Customers a payment reminder or a dunning notice to remind them of their
outstanding debts. The dunning program duns the open items from Customer Accounts in which the overdue

The dunning levels will be calculated based on the number of days the open items are in arrears. The dunning
program determines the accounts and items which are to be dunned, the dunning level and all other details
necessary for dunning. The dunning program produces a dunning proposal list. The dunning proposal list can
be created as often as required since the dunning data for the item and in the account is not updated until the
dunning notices have been printed.
The dunning proposal list can be edited by raising or lowering the dunning level of some line items, blocking
some line items from being dunned, or removing dunning blocks. The print program prints the dunning notices.
It will update the fields Dunning level and Dunning date in each line item, and dunning date and level in the

All deliveries or services provided by a vendor can be settled in a single invoice. On the item list all purchase
order items that match the reference allocation and that are ready to be invoiced will be suggested.
All invoice items in which the quantity expected to be invoiced is not zero will be selected by default. Only the
selected invoice items are copied to the document when you post the invoice. Any invoice items that has been
proposed and selected should be manually deselected if they do not appear in the Vendors invoice.
In the Quantity column, the quantity to be invoiced will be proposed. This quantity will be the difference
between the quantity delivered and that invoiced so far for each goods receipt.
In the Amount column, the product of the quantity proposed and the order price will be proposed. This amount
will not include taxes.
The following information will be mandatory entry during the Invoice Verification process.

Purchase Order or Goods Receipt. Variances are allowed within predefined tolerance limits. If a variance
exceeds a tolerance limit, however, an informational message will be issued during Invoice Verification. If an
upper limit is exceeded, the invoice is blocked for payment when it is posted. The invoice would have to be
released subsequently by removing the Payment Block from the Accounting Document. However, the
informational message shall be changed to an Error Message when tolerances in respect of prices are
exceeded.
If in the master data for the material it has been defined that the Goods Receipt of the material is subject to
inspection and that an Invoice for the material should be blocked due to Quality Inspection, then an Invoice for
the material would be blocked if no usage decision has been made about the inspection lot for the goods
receipt concerned or if the inspection lot is rejected.
It will not be possible to post an invoice before the goods receipt. Also, the invoice quantity will not be greater

All Invoices will be initially parked before being posted. For each incoming invoice, Invoice Verification creates
an MM invoice document and an FI invoice document. Both these document numbers will be informed via the
system message when the document has been successfully processed. When the invoice is posted, the GR/IR

Purchase Orders in foreign currencies are created for imports of finished or semi-finished goods and capital
assets. In the case of Invoice Verification in respect of imports, the currency of the document is determined
from the Purchase Order currency. The exchange rate differences are calculated from the exchange rate at the
time of the goods receipt and the exchange rate at the time of the invoice receipt. The difference between them
will be automatically calculated and posted to separate G/L Account so that the amounts posted in Local
Currency to GR/IR Clearing Account are identical.

Freight charges are sometimes planned in the purchase order. More often, they are not known in detail when
the purchase order is created and are entered only in Invoice Verification on the basis of information in the

Planned delivery costs which are entered at item level in the Purchase Order
Unplanned delivery costs which are entered at invoice receipt.
For planned delivery costs, postings will be made to the GR/IR clearing account at goods receipt. These
postings are cleared when the invoice is posted. Any differences between the planned costs and actual will be
treated as Unplanned Delivery Costs and posted to separate expense accounts.

Hyderabad Chemicals Limited has to pay advance payments to vendors i.e. payments in advance of receiving
the invoice. These payments shall be posted to the Vendor Account with special G/L indicators so that their
balances can be updated in separate G/L Accounts instead of the normal reconciliation accounts for vendors.
Special G/L Transactions
Special G/L transactions are special transactions in accounts receivable and accounts payable that are
displayed separately in the general ledger and the sub ledger. This may be necessary for reporting or for
internal reasons.
For example, down payments may not be balanced with receivables and payables for goods and services.
Consequently, they are treated as special G/L transactions in the General Ledger, Accounts Payable and
Accounts Receivable.
This is achieved by posting to alternative reconciliation accounts, instead of posting to the normal reconciliation
accounts for receivables and payables.
The special G/L transactions which are available in SAP system are as follows:
Down payments and down payment requests
Bills of exchange receivable, bills of exchange payable and checks/bills of exchange
Bank bills
Payment requests
Guarantees
Reserves for bad debt
Security deposits
PAGE:

SUPERSEDES:
These special procedures are displayed separately from other receivables and payables on the balance sheet
either for legal reasons, such as with down payments, or for control reasons, such as with guarantees
received. A separate special G/L account is created for each special G/L transaction as Bills of exchange,
Down Payment and etc. As a result, it is possible to display each transaction in the balance sheet without
having to carry out any transfer postings and to receive an overview via the account limited to this procedure
only.
The special G/L indicators and G/L Accounts to be used for Vendor Down Payments are:
A Down Payments, Current Assets
All down payments to Vendors shall be paid only with reference to Down Payment Request for the same.
These Down Payment Requests shall identify the Vendor to whom the payment is to be made, the special G/L
indicator, the amount and the requested date for payment. Additionally, the Down Payment Request can only
be made with reference to the Purchase Order Number and the Line Item identification against which the down
payment is to be made.
Down Payment Requests are only noted items and do not update any G/L Account balances. However, since
they can be managed as a line item in the account, line item display will be active for the special G/L Account
for Down Payment Requests.
Actual Down Payments shall be made only with reference to the earlier created Down Payment Requests. The
down payment shall automatically clear the line item in the Down Payment Request G/L Account and post a
document with the selected special G/L indicator.
The down payment can be cleared against the Invoice after the Invoice Verification is done. The down payment
can also be cleared while making an outgoing payment to the vendor. Down payments will also be updated in
the Purchase Order history.

determine at first sight that the amounts are negative. However, in the More Details screen of a line item a
flag indicates that the negative postings took place. Neither the account balance nor the original transaction
reflects the reversal on either side (debit or credit), which is the key purpose of the true reversal.
Negative postings will be permitted on the company code level and also a special reason code for negative

6.4.4.1
For ABC on each taxable sale (i.e. non-exempt) and on each taxable purchase (i.e. non-exempt) made inside
the respective state, a value added tax (VAT) will be applied. The rate is determined by the kind of product,
service that is purchased. The taxes on the sales and purchase transactions are classified as exempt, zero tax
rate, or standard tax rate. It is possible for the VAT Tax on some purchases to be non refundable. For these
transactions the Vat amount will be added to the actual cost of the product.
A tax code will be set for every vendor and every material in the SAP system. This denotes that taxes are
calculated automatically. The code can be manually overwritten with a non-taxable code if taxes are not
applicable to a certain transaction when the transaction is entered. Tax codes are to be assigned to the
Vendors and Materials records.

The fiscal year change can only be carried out (even in test mode) for the new fiscal year. The earliest that you
can carry out a fiscal year change is in the last month of the old fiscal year. You can choose any point in the
new fiscal year for carrying out the fiscal year change. Before you can change to fiscal year YYYY, you must
have already closed fiscal year YYYY.
Maximum of two successive fiscal years can be opened for posting at one time.
No business transactions can be posted in a new fiscal year before the fiscal year change. You can continue to
post in the old fiscal year, even after the fiscal year change. The system automatically corrects any values that
are affected by postings in the past. The fiscal year change has to be carried out as background processing
for performance reasons. The system carries out the fiscal year change for all assets, even if the assets have
errors. The system provides statistics per company code for the assets that have been changed. The system
writes assets with errors to an error log. In the case of program termination, you can repeat the fiscal year
change as often as required.
Year-End Closing
Before close a fiscal year in Financial Accounting from a bookkeeping perspective, carry out Year End Closing
activity in Asset Accounting to close the fiscal year for the company codes from an accounting perspective.
Once the fiscal year is closed, no longer post or change values within Asset Accounting (for example, by
recalculating depreciation). The fiscal year that is closed is always the year following the last closed fiscal year
and cannot close the current fiscal year. Perform the year-end closing as background processing for
performance reasons.

Controlling Area is an organizational unit within an Organization. Controlling Area is being used to represent a
closed system for cost accounting purposes. Controlling Area is used for internal reporting purposes. Multiple
Company Codes can be used same Controlling Area, to have a uniform Costing Systems in place. All the
company codes in the controlling area must use one Chart of Accounts and Fiscal Year Variant.
Controlling provides with the information for management decision-making. It facilitates coordination,
monitoring and optimization of all processes in an organization. This involves recording both the consumption
of production factors and the services provided by an organization.
Along with documenting Actual events, Planning can also be done in controlling module. This facilitates
determining variances between plan and actual data. These variance calculations enable to control business
flows.

Cost Elements

The data automatically flows to Controlling if a GL account is created as Cost Element in Controlling.
This is because of integration between Finance and Controlling modules.
Primary Cost Elements will be created with naming convention as that of GL accounts for revenues
and expenses. Without GL Account, it is not possible to create the Primary Cost Element.
Important fields in Cost Elements are as follows:
Cost Element Category determines the business transactions for which the Cost Element can be
used.
ABC will be using Cost Element Category 01 for all the Primary Cost Elements.
Cost Element Category 41 Overhead Rates for Overhead calculations
Cost Element Category 42 - Assessment for Secondary Cost Elements for the purpose of
Assessments between Cost Centers.
Cost element groups will be used to process several cost elements in one business transaction.
Multiple Cost Element Groups will be maintained for the purpose of executing the various Controlling
Reports effectively.
It is necessary to check the costs of individual areas in an organization so as to provide decision-making data
for management. This requires that all costs be assigned according to their source. Since, source-related
assignment is especially difficult for overhead costs; Cost Center Accounting lets you analyze the overhead
costs according to where they were incurred within the organization.

The main activities in Cost Center Accounting include entering the plan figures at the beginning of a fiscal year
for the combination of Cost Center and various other Master Data. Thus it involves entering plan figures for
Costs, Activities, Prices or Statistical Key Figures for a particular Cost Center and a particular Planning Period.
The variances from these figures can then be determined by comparing these plan values with the actual. The
other objective of planning is for the calculation of product cost.
The period-end processes in Cost Center Accounting include periodic allocations between the various Cost
Centers through Distribution and Assessments and Variance Calculation to analyze the cause of them.

The actual values are posted online to monitor costs on an ongoing basis. These postings enable us to
recognize variances at an early stage, and to take the necessary counter measures.
Actual cost entry involves transferring primary costs from upstream components to the Controlling (CO)
application component. In the CO component, this transfer occurs real-time from the components Financial
Accounting, Asset Accounting, Materials Management, Production Planning and Payroll Accounting. This is
achieved by entering a cost accounting object (such as a cost centre or an internal order) during account
assignment.
Primary costs entered in other systems are allocated further using internal allocations and as true to source as
is possible. To enable this, costs are determined for each business transaction, based on the valued internal
activity. They are then posted real-time to the sender and receiver object(s) (debit and credit postings).
Errors are unavoidable and may result particularly during initial days of SAP live operations. Thus, there will be
occasions where postings are assigned to the wrong controlling object, and ABC should be able to rectify
posting errors related to erroneous assignment to controlling objects.
ABC can repost primary costs from one controlling object to another using transaction-based transfers; the
original cost element is always retained. This function is designed to correct posting errors. Posting errors
should preferably be corrected in the application component where they originate, so that external and internal
accounting (FI and CO) is always reconciled.
In ABC, the assignment of CO objects to the transactions in other modules like FI, SD etc. is taken care of
where ever possible, to post the entries automatically to the respective CO objects, in order to reduce the
chances of error occurrence.
Posting errors involving assignment to a controlling object (cost centre or internal order) can, however, is
corrected using a transaction-based reposting in CO. The reposting costs (or revenues) transaction is simple
transfer of cost (or revenue) from one controlling object to another.

the financial picture for product costing.
As all the materials including the finished and semi finished materials are using the moving average price as
price control indicator, the standard costing system cannot be suggested.
The following process to be adopted for Product Costing:
The Bill of Material (BOM) details the raw material and packing material in the required portions that are
required for production.
The recipe contains the details process of production activity including resource such as manufacturing
vessel, equipment. Each operation is assigned to its resource and each resource assigned to relevant
activities such as Labour, fuel, power etc. (maximum of six parameters for each resource). Each
resource is attached to a cost centre.
The recipe and BOM are copied to process order automatically when the order is created. The quantities
of materials and activities are determined at standard levels (Planned costs).

Confirmation of order:
Confirmation of the order means declaration of production against the order. The order has to be confirmed
completely. Confirmation is possible for release order only. Confirmation will result in stock up of product,
reduction in stock of all raw materials.
At the time of confirmation standard activities (machine, labour) & quantities as per BOM are proposed.
Changes can be done at this stage. The actual cost is updated depending upon the actual quantities
confirmed. In case of back flush option is used then changes can be done for the goods issue quantity as well
during goods movement: Goods receipt quantity (Yield) is automatically transferred to storage location
specified.
Following data are confirmed at confirmation stage phase wise:
Activity data Confirmation of activity used to carry out the phase, such as the duration of the processing

The Standard Cost Estimate shall be calculated using the following strategy and
process:
Standard Cost Estimates will be done at the beginning of the month for all the
materials produced in house - Finished Goods, Intermediates and Bulk products at
the Manufacturing Plant.
ABC will use the Costing Variant PP01 Std Cost Est (Mat.) for the purpose of
calculating the Standard Cost Estimate.
The Standard Cost of finished products, Intermediates and Bulk constitutes
Materials (Raw materials and Packaging materials) and Conversion cost.
The Standard cost for material component will be determined from the Bill of
Materials (BOM) and Raw material Prices. The Bill of Materials (BOM) contains the
standard material quantities for manufacturing finished product. Bill of Materials
(BOM) with usage 1 - Production will be used for the purpose of calculating the
quantities of the material. These Quantities from the Bill of Materials (BOM) and
the Moving Average Price maintained in material master will be used for
calculation of Standard Cost Estimate.
The Standard Conversion cost will be determined through the Master Recipe and
Planned Activity rate. The Master Recipe contains all resources required to produce
a material and the number of hours required for each activity performed by each
resource. The planned rate for each Activity and standard number of hours
maintained in Master Recipe will be used for calculating conversion cost for each
material. The conversion cost will include the following overheads of Operations

The standard hierarchy consists of summarization nodes and end nodes. Summarization areas group together
profit center data at a higher level. Each node of the standard hierarchy, which is not an end node, is a
summarization area. You cannot assign profit centers directly to a summarization area; it merely groups
together the profit center areas and summarization areas that lie below it. The summarization nodes are used
in reporting and the profit centers are assigned to the end nodes.
To fulfill the requirements, the Profit Centers have to be set up in such a manner as to reflect the reporting
requirement of ABC. For ABC, Profits are classified as from Agro Chemicals and Formulation Products. The
Chemicals product segment is further sub-divided into self-manufactured products,

assignment of these objects to the profit centers. The assignment of business objects to profit centers is
absolutely essential to ensure data consistency in reporting. The following business objects are to be assigned
to the profit centers in ABC:
Material master
Assignments of materials to profit centers provide the default values for assignment of sales orders and
manufacturing orders. With internal goods movements also (such as stock transfers or material withdrawals)
the profit center is derived from the material master, if no other account assignment has been made. The

Profitability Analysis can receive actual data from the following R/3 applications:
CO-OM (assessment of cost center and process costs, activity and process allocation, order settlement)
CO-PC (valuation using material cost estimates, settlement of cost objects, production variances)
Each CO-PA-relevant transaction in SAP (such as invoicing) triggers the creation of line items in COPA. The
data posted in CO-PA is determined through automatic and manual mappings, and through derivation and
valuation configuration.
7.16.6
The CO-PA information system uses an online reporting tool - called "drilldown reporting" , which allows to
evaluate the data collected in Profitability Analysis. With this tool we can select the desired dataset according
to any of the characteristics in our CO-PA system.
It is possible to display several profitability segments for any key figure, or several key figures for any
profitability segment.
The CO-PA information system provides a number of different ways to analyze profitability data. We can define
and display profitability reports to analyze the characteristics that are contained in the segment level for an
operating concern.
When defining the profitability report, it is possible to specify the different analysis criteria mainly by selecting
characteristics and value fields.
All the MIS reports for Sales and Profitability Analysis of ABC would be generated through CO-PA.
