Introduction
Scenario
Global Bikes Inc (GBI) was founded in 2001 following the merger of two bicycle manufacturers, one based in the US and the other in Germany. GBI has three lines of business: deluxe and professional touring bikes, men’s and women’s off-road bikes, and bike accessories. GBI sells its bikes to a network of specialized dealers throughout the world, and it procures its raw materials from a variety of suppliers globally.

GBI has two manufacturing facilities, one in the US and one in Germany. It also has three additional warehouses, two in the US and one in Germany. GBI has more than 100 employees globally. The organization uses SAP ERP to support its processes. The company has a new bicycle for sale- Mongoose Mountain Bike.

Accounting
The function of accounting is to provide financial documentation and information for an enterprise and other interested parties that are associated with it. There are basically two types of accounting:

· External accounting is oriented more towards satisfying the information requirements of external parties. This is referred to as Financial Accounting (FI).

· Internal accounting meets the reporting demands of internal enterprise groups. This is referred to as Cost Accounting (CO).

Financial Accounting
The payment of vendor invoices and the receipt of customer payments is handled by the Financial Accounting (FI) module. The major components of this module are the general ledger(G/L) and sub ledger accounting (accounts payable, accounts receivable, and asset accounting), and consolidation.

· Accounts Payable records all accounting transactions for dealings with suppliers. Much of its data is obtained from procurement (Materials Management).

· Accounts Receivable records all accounting transactions for dealings with customers. Much of its data is obtained from Sales and Distribution.

· Asset Accounting records all accounting transactions relating to the management of assets.

· Travel Management manages and calculates travel costs and supports travel planning and travel expenses

· Bank ledger supports the posting of cash flows.

The General Ledger (G/L) is the foundation of the accounting function. It serves as a complete record of all business transactions. It is the centralized, up-to-date reference for the rendering of accounts. Actual individual transactions can be checked at any time in real-time processing by displaying the original documents, line items, and transaction figures at various levels such as:

· Account information

· Journals

· Totals/transaction figures

· Balance sheet/profit and loss evaluations

Process Overview
Image46

General Ledger Master Records
G/L account master records contain the data that is always needed by the general ledger to determine the account's function. The G/L account master records control the posting of accounting transactions to G/L accounts and the processing of the posting data. Before you can make postings to a G/L account, you have to create a master record in the system for that account.

G/L account master records are divided into two areas so that company codes with the same chart of accounts can use the same G/L accounts.

· Chart of accounts area

The chart of accounts area contains the data that is valid for all company codes, such as the account number. It is a list of all G/L account master records which are used in one or several company codes. For every G/L account master record, the chart of accounts contains the account number, the account name and controlling information.

· Company code specific area

The company code specific area contains data that may vary from one company code to another, such as the currency in which the account may be posted.

The G/L account master record in the company code contains company code-specific information which controls the entry of data to this account and the management of the account.

Task 1: Display the Chart of Accounts
A chart of accounts may be shared by many company codes. Each company code must be assigned a chart of accounts. Once a chart of accounts is assigned to a company code, it becomes the operative chart of accounts for that company code and it is used to capture information for both Financial Accounting (FI) and Cost Accounting (CO). For each G/L account, the chart of accounts contains the account number, the account name, and additional technical information

You want to view the Chart of Accounts to get a better understanding of the structure of the General Ledger.

1. Logon to SAP S/4HANA if not already logged on.

2.

Click on the Group Selection Bar to display this Group.
However, you will notice that a Fiori tile to display the Chart of Accounts has not been included. You will need to search for this function using .
3.

Click to display the Search text field.
4. Type Chart of Accounts in the text box.

After a short while a screen appears with suggested results.

5.

Click to select this function.
A large list of Chart of Accounts appears:

6.

Click on the toolbar to display the Chart of Accounts.
7. Click GL00 Global GBI to select this Chart of Accounts.

You will notice the Chart of Accounts includes a structure for Account codes, Descriptions and Account types.

8. Scroll to review the various accounts contained in the Chart of Accounts for GBI.

Record information on your chart of accounts in the table below:

G/L Account Number

G/L Account Name

100000

200100

300000

310000

600000

700000

9.

Click to return to the launchpad.
Task 2: The Chart of Accounts Applied to the General Ledger
You are going to review a listing of the General Ledger (G/L) accounts that are part of your chart of accounts and that have been made operative for your company code. Each G/L account being used by a company code has both chart of account and company code specific information. In this way, a chart of accounts may be used by several company codes with each having their own unique information and settings but at the same time facilitating the integration accounting information.

10.

Click on the Group Selection Bar to display this Group.
11.

Click to display the General Ledger selection screen.
You will notice that there are three fields (Company Code, Chart of Accounts, View) that require information before you can display any data. From the previous exercise we looked at the Global Bike Chart of Account (GL00).

How does this information differ from the information in the figure after step 7?

What are the company codes this chart of accounts is assigned to? Hint: Use the Company Code search field options

You will notice that the General Ledger has a similar structure to the previous Chart of Accounts in terms of Account Codes and Descriptions. But now at the Company Code level the default currency has been added. When the GL00 Chart of Accounts was used in the German GBI Company General Ledger the currency was set to Euro.

17.

Click to return to the launchpad.
Task 3: Display General Ledger Account
Businesses commonly maintain several bank accounts (e.g. payroll, general checking and money market) that are listed on their balance sheet. Often you need to display a General Ledger account in your chart of accounts. The account you need to display is the alternative bank account (101000) in the GBI US company (US00).

You can display account details through the Manage G/L Account Master Data Fiori tile.

24. Click 101000 to drill down to further details for this account.

What Account Group is this G/L account assigned to?

Is this account a Profit and Loss Statement account or a Balance Sheet account?

What is the account currency?

25. Repeat the same procedure for the same G/L account, but for the German GBI Company Code (DE00).

What differences did you find?

You may look at other G/L account details if you would like.

26.

Click to return to the launchpad.
Task 4: Post Transfer of Funds to Alternate Bank Account
The General Ledger contains a number of accounts. In some scenarios funds may need to be transferred between accounts. In this exercise you are going to generate a journal entry for the US GBI company to transfer funds ($US5,000) from the current bank account to the alternate bank account.

27.

28. Type US00 in the Company Code field.
