8. Account-Based CO-PA
For release S4 FINANCE more flexibility was introduced regarding currency configuration. The
Universal Journal in SAP S/4HANA can handle up to 10 currency fields.
It is possible to have 2 fix (Local and Global currencies) plus 8 freely defined currencies for GL (3
for AA, 3 for ML, and 2 for CO). The 8 freely currencies can be defined on ledger level.
However, the currencies for parallel ledgers do not depend on leading ledger.
2. Extension ledger

extension ledger. Apart from defining the ledger, there is no other customizing to be done. You
set up the ledgers in SAP S/4HANA using transaction code FINSC_LEDGER, which leads you to
the screen shown in below screen.
Click the New Entries button and create the entries as highlighted in Figure 1. In this example,
extension ledgers E1 and Z1 are created.

3. Simplified data model on S/4 FINANCE
Data will now be stored in Universal journal table ACDOCA i,e GL, AA, CO, CO-PA and
ML.
The Journal entry consists of a header (BKPF) and items (ACDOCA), moreover ACDOCA
has a 6 digit field for the document line, whereas BSEG has only a 3 digit field.
The new Material Ledger Document tables MLDOC and MLDOCCCS replace most former
periodic tables (MLHD, MLIT, MLPP, MLPPF, MLCR, MLCRF, MLKEPH, CKMLPP, CKMLCR,
MLCD, CKMLMV003, CKMLMV004, CKMLPPWIP, CKMLKEPH).
The architecture of new Asset Accounting is very flexible now. That means you can very easily
handle parallel valuation of your assets using both the ledger approach and the accounts
approach.
The leading valuation can be recorded in any depreciation area. It is no longer necessary to use
depreciation area 01 for this. The system now posts both the actual values of the leading
valuation and the values of parallel valuation in real time. This means the posting of delta
values has been replaced; as a result, the delta depreciation areas are no longer required.
New Asset Accounting makes it possible to post in real time in all valuations (that is, for all
accounting principles). You can track the postings of all valuations, without having to take into
account the postings of the leading valuation, as was partly the case in classic Asset Accounting.
In a new Asset Accounting posting transaction, the system creates a document for each
accounting principle in the general ledger.
Depreciation postings and runs complete a lot faster due to the streamlined model.
Data redundancy has been reduced and actuals are stored in the universal journal
(ACDOCA) instead of in a variety of tables (including ANEP, ANEK, ANLC, ANLP, and
accounts approach, different valuations on different accounts are reflected in the same
ledger. In comparison, if you use the ledger approach, different valuations or different
accounting principles are reflected in relevant separate ledgers.
Planned depreciation is determined and updated with each asset master record change
Period end closing can be performed even if there are errors on individual assets.
A test can be performed but still with the restriction for 1000 assets.
6. Inventory Valuation
Today with S/4 FINANCE global organizations operating in different countries can valuate
inventory in multiple currencies (3 currencies) this functionality is available in S4 FINANCE 1511
and higher. Material ledger provides balances per inventory account in multiple currencies,
these values will be included in the universal journal.

MBEWH, OBEW, OBEWH, QBEW, QBEWH
Customer, Vendor and employer can be created in single transaction code called BP.
One business partner could perform multiple roles (eg Customer, Vendor and Employer)

For example: US GAAP requires income statement by function, where in India GAAP requires
income statement by nature.
Depending on the income statement method used, the account to the debit line represents:
No Separate program to be executed for balance carry forward in asset accounting. This
would be done along with the GL close process FAGLGVTR
Planned depreciation will automatically be calculated for the new year after having
performed the balance carry forward (year end close) fast depreciation posting run due
Complex calculations that are performed at period close, for example, the calculation of
work in progress at actual costs, determination variances for production orders and
results analysis for sales orders, are pushed down to the SAP HANA database in-memory
capabilities.
Eliminates end-of-period batch job bottlenecks.
Enhanced reports use a logical view that combines the financial accounting (FI) line
item, the CO line item, and the CO-PA dimensions to provide an income statement
broken down by market segments.
In SAP S/4HANA, the material number field length was extended from 18 to 40 characters.This
change was first implemented in SAP S/4HANA, on-premise edition 1511 and affects this
release and higher releases.
Extending the material number on the database means that the field length of the MATNR field
on the database has been extended from 18 to 40 characters. This has been done in all tables
(and all fields within the tables) in which a material number can be stored.
The functionality for valuing the transfer of goods or services according to legal, group, or profit
center valuation is supported as of SAP S/4 HANA 1610. The Functionality is not available in SAP
S/4HANA 1511, on-premise edition. Transfer prices provide parallel valuation methods for legal,
group, and profit center valuation.
- The legal perspective looks at the business transactions from a companys point of view.
Pricing is driven by legal requirements and tax optimization strategies.
- Profit center valuation looks at profit centers as independent entities within the group.
- The group view considers the group as a whole. The processes are valued by eliminating
intercompany/inter-profit center profits.
With the merge of FI and CO into the Universal Journal, a new approach for parallel valuations
was implemented:
Transfer prices can be updated within a ledger containing all valuation views or alternatively
with separate ledgers per valuation view.
Parallel delta versions for actuals in Controlling are used for statistical line items updating table
COEP only. All other actual line items updating table ACDOCA use the new data model.
