11 OORRGGAANNIISSAATTIIOONNAALL EELLEEMMEENNTTSS IINN FFIICOMPANY CODE (FI)

1.1 Company code is the smallest organizational unit for which complete,

independent accounting can be carried out. A legally independent company is

generally represented by one company code in the SAP System. Customer and

vendor master records have a company code area, which contains data that is

only relevant to one company code. Each G/L account master record contains

data that is relevant to the company code specific accounts in the company code

area

1.2 Company Code is the central entity in financial accounting. It is also the highest

entity in Logistics. For all customer, vendor and material related transactions that

have accounting implications, it is necessary for the system to derive the

Company code. Each plant and each sales organization is assigned to one and

only one company code.

1.3 Following 4 Company codes will be defined in the SAP system:

Company Code Name Short Name SAP Code

MOBICA Integrated Industries Mobica INT 1000

CONTROLLING AREA (CO)

1.4 A controlling area represents a closed system for cost accounting purposes.

Cost allocations can only be performed within a controlling area. Several

company codes may be assigned to one controlling area, which gives the ability

to perform cross-company-code controlling.

1.5 MObica will be the only controlling area in the current implementation. All the four

company codes mentioned in this document will be assigned to this Controlling

Area. Proposed code – 9000

CHART OF ACCOUNTS

1.6 Chart of Accounts are G/L Account Master Records required in one or several

company codes. Postings are made to these accounts. The maximum length of

the GL code will be 6 digits (numeric).

1.7 A company code must be linked to exactly one Operating Chart of Accounts. An

Operating Chart of Accounts can be linked to many companies.

1.8 The Chart of Accounts is the link between FI and CO modules in the following

way:

Ø A Company Code is Linked to the Operating Chart of Accounts

OVERVIEW

1.1 The purpose of this chapter is to document the configuration settings in Financial

Accounting - global settings for the Company Code. These settings control the

transaction entry and the dependant controls in SAP. Financial accounting

requires the following basic settings:

Ø Chart of Accounts (Explained in the earlier chapter)

Ø Currency Settings

Ø Fiscal year and fiscal year variant

Ø Posting Periods

Ø Document types

Ø Document numbering

Ø Posting keys

CURRENCY

1.2 The company code currencies will be configured as follows:

Company Code Name Company code Currency

Currency Key

MOBICA Integrated:industries Egyption pound EGP

MOBICA Carpentry Egyption pound EGP

WOOD and Steel Egyption pound EGP

IBS Egyption pound EGP

1.3 MOBICA will define USD, Euro, British Pound,Soudi Rayal,Japaneis yein,

Emarites Dirham(AUD) , and Frank (CHF), in relation to the EGP Factors for all

currency translations maintained in the system. Users can also enter appropriate

exchange rate for conversion of each foreign currency into EGP. Otherwise the

system will convert on the basis of the last translation rate maintained in the

system. Foreign Currency translation rates need to be revised periodically.

Page 13: SAP FI Blueprint Document

Business Blueprint MOBICA

11/04/2007 13

FISCAL YEAR AND FISCAL YEAR VARIANT

1.4 Fiscal year variant identifies financial transactions related to a financial year. The

financial year of MOBICA is January to December. The fiscal year variant will be

defined as K4 in the system that have 12 normal periods i.e. from January to

December & 3 special periods for financial closing.

POSTING PERIODS

1.5 Posting period means monthly period of fiscal year i.e. period within a fiscal year

for which transaction figures are updated. Every transaction that is posted is

assigned to a particular posting period. The transaction figures are then updated

for this period.

1.6 Mobica will have 12 normal periods & 3 special periods. The first period for the

fiscal year will be January and the twelfth period will be December. The four extra

periods are special periods provided in the system for accounting year-end

closing and adjustment entries.

DOCUMENT TYPES

1.7 The document type determines the type of transaction and the account types to

be posted. The document type is entered in the document header and applies to

the whole document. The document type controls the following:

Ø Document Numbering (external or internal)

Ø Posting to Account Types (Assets, Debtors, Creditors, Materials and General

ledger accounts).

1.8 MOBICA has suggested the following document types which can be amended as

per the requirement:

DOCUMENT NUMBERING

1.11 In the SAP System, every document is assigned a number that identifies it

uniquely within a fiscal year and company code. The number ranges are

assigned to the document types. The number ranges will be fiscal year specific &

internal i.e. the document number will be generated automatically by the system

in sequential order.

OVERVIEW

2.1 G/L accounting provides a comprehensive picture for external accounting and

accounts. Essentially, the general ledger serves as a complete record of all

business transactions entered into the SAP system. 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 monthly debits and credits at various levels such as:

Ø Account

Ø Journals

Ø Summary of monthly debits and credits (balances)

Ø Balance sheet/profit and loss evaluations

Ø Other analysis

2.2 General Ledger has the following features:

Ø Free choice of level: corporate group or company

Ø Automatic and simultaneous posting of all sub-ledger items in the appropriate

general ledger accounts (reconciliation accounts)

Ø Simultaneous updating of general ledger and cost accounting areas

Ø Real-time evaluation of and reporting on current accounting data, in the form

of account displays, financial statements with different financial statement

versions and additional analyses.

Ø Multiple currencies handling (foreign vendor accounts can be maintained in

the vendor’s currency).

MASTER DATA MAINTENANCE

2.3 The G/L account master records control the posting of accounting transactions to

G/L accounts and the processing of the posting data

2.4 Master records for each account needs to be created and maintained in the

system. The master data contains information that controls the entry of business

transactions in an account and the processing of data to that account.

2.5 Within master data processing, accounts are defined so that they can be updated

by postings in other module of SAP like HR, MM & SD.

2.6 The chart of accounts contains general specifications for the G/L account master

record. Each company code uses only one chart of accounts. Specific Chart of

Accounts (9000) will be created for MOBICA.

2.7 G/L account master record processing will enhance the efficiency in executing

the following activities:

Ø Management of master record (G/L Accounts) -creation and maintenance.

Ø Blocking of accounts from postings on a temporary basis.

Ø Updating the transactions of other modules to the General Ledger.

Page 20: SAP FI Blueprint Document

Business Blueprint MOBICA

11/04/2007 20

Ø Line Item Reporting and/or Balance-Only reporting.

General Ledger Master Data Segments

2.8 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.

Ø Chart of Accounts Area: The chart of accounts area contains the data that is

valid for all company codes, such as the account number. The fields that must

be filled /selected while creating masters are as follows:

q Account Group

q P&L statement / Balance Sheet

q Company code specific area

Ø 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.

2.9 This data controls entering and processing of business transaction data in the

appropriate account as well as management of account within a company code.

The fields that must be filled /selected while creating masters are as follows:

Ø Currency

Ø Reconciliation Account for Account Type

Ø Open Item Management -

Ø Line Item Display

Ø Field Status Group.

Account Group

2.10 Account group is a logical grouping of accounts, which have similar properties.

The Account code of an account depends upon the number range that is

assigned to that Account group. The account group determines the function of

the fields available at the time of GL master creation.

2.11 Mobica Account Groups:

Field Status Group

2.12 Field status group controls the fields of the screen which needs to be

suppressed, Display, required or optional entry at the time of data entry. For

many General ledger accounts the same fields need to be entered while posting

transactions which can be achieved by defining field status groups for a group of

G/L accounts. Many field status groups are grouped under a field status variant

which is assigned to a company code. Field status group is not defined for

customer and vendor accounts. The status of a field for postings to these

accounts is determined via the reconciliation accounts of the vendors or

customers.

2.13 SAP Standard Field status groups will be retained and used. Field status

definition of the above field status groups will be fine tuned as per user

requirements and base design.

OVERVIEW

3.1 The system uses the document principle as its reference for entering and posting

business transactions. Each business transaction is stored as a document form

within the system till it is archived. The following common documents will be used

within the General Ledger posting area:

Ø Adjustment entries.

Ø Banking and Cash Transactions.

Ø Provision Postings.

Ø Other G/L Transactions

3.2 The document header contains information that applies to the entire document,

such as the document type, date and number. The document number will be

assigned internally.

3.3 The line item only contains information, which is specific to that line item. It

always has an amount and one account number. It may also contain other

specifications, such as the terms of payment, a cost center or an explanatory

text, depending on the posted transaction. The posting of general ledger

transactions shall be handled at all locations and at the corporate office.

3.4 The following functions will be used to process GL documents:

PARKED DOCUMENTS

3.5 The feature of parked document may be used in various operating scenarios

such as:

Ø A user does not know a part of the inputs to be entered in the document

Ø A document needs to be approved or changed if required by an approving

authority.

3.6 Document parking can be used to enter and store (park) incomplete documents

in the SAP System without carrying out extensive entry checks. Parked

documents can be completed, checked and then posted at a later date. Parking

Page 26: SAP FI Blueprint Document

Business Blueprint MOBICA

11/04/2007 26

documents does not update any data in the system, such as transaction figures.

In case of a parked document, the amounts, account codes may be changed till it

is posted. However document date, cannot be changed. Posting date may be

changed at the time of posting the document.

3.7 The advantage of parking documents is that the data in the documents can be

evaluated online for reporting purposes from the moment they are parked rather

than having to wait until they have been completed and posted. Parked invoices

can be blocked from future processing.

3.8 The facility of parked documents will be used in MOBICA.

RECURRING ENTRIES

3.9 Recurring Documents are created for processing transactions that are of routine

and repetitive nature. In all the locations of MOBICA, entries at specific intervals

are passed with regard to:

Ø Rent

Ø Insurance

3.10 A recurring document needs to be created as a reference document. For every

recurring entry, a first run date and repeat run timeframe need to be given. At any

point of time, recurring entries pertaining to a specified period may be processed

using options of periodic processing.

3.11 Alternatively, a time schedule for processing these transactions may be entered

and the system would automatically carry out the processing of such

prescheduled transactions.

ACCOUNT ASSIGNMENT MODELS

3.12 The Account Assignment Model is used for repeated transactions of similar

nature, standard allocation entries etc. An account assignment model needs to

be created as a reference transaction. At the time of creation of a model, Debit

and Credit line items may be entered. The model entry need not be a balanced

entry. The line items can be modified/changed by the users. The users can then

create these Models from time to time. An account assignment model may be

Page 27: SAP FI Blueprint Document

Business Blueprint MOBICA

11/04/2007 27

created using absolute amounts or for proportions for a combination of a specific

account codes with or without other assignments such as cost centre etc.

DOCUMENT REVERSALS

3.13 A Document can be reversed in financial accounting if the following conditions

are fulfilled.

Ø The original transaction has originated in financial accounting

Ø There are no cleared items

Ø The line items contain only G/L, Debtors and Creditors

3.14 Document Reversal may be used for reversal of a general ledger transaction in

error, however not for an accounting entry posted from Asset Accounting or other

module. A reason code can be set and assigned to a reversal document. In case

of MOBICA all document types, which can be reversed, will have a reversal

document type.The documents, which have been posted due to error, should be

reversed in the same period (month) if the posting period is open. In case where

the period is not open then it has to be posted to the current period.

SAMPLE DOCUMENTS

3.15 Sample documents can be used as reference documents entered specifically for

this purpose. Sample documents have a separate number range. The system

stores the document when a sample document is entered and ‘posted’ but does

not update any transaction figures.

4.1 When a business transaction is posted to accounts, the system automatically

updates the account balance. It is therefore possible to view the account balance

and line items for the account.

4.2 An account balance shows the:

Ø Opening balance (carry forward balance from the previous year)

Ø Total of all transactions per posting period, broken down into debits and

credits (transaction figures)

4.3 Using these figures the system also calculates the:

Ø Balance per posting period

Ø Accumulated balance of the account

4.4 In addition to the above balances, the system displays the gross turnover per

period for each account. Account balances are also comprised of the balances

resulting from special G/L transactions such as advance and down payments.

4.5 Account balances can also be viewed in document amounts posted in foreign

currency & the respective local currency. In case the account is displayed on the

system online then the following details need to be displayed:

Ø Posting date

Ø Cost centre

Ø Reference

Ø Currency

Ø Clearing document in case of cleared items

CLEARING OF ACCOUNTS

4.6 Account clearing process is used to clear open items in an accounts. Clearing

process is used to clear one or more open line items within one account. On

clearing open items, system will create a clearing document. E.g. vendor

payment can be cleared against vendor invoice posting. MOBICA will use

Page 29: SAP FI Blueprint Document

Business Blueprint MOBICA

11/04/2007 29

clearing only if the open items are not cleared for some reason at the time of

posting.

4.7 Manual Clearing: can be done in two ways:

Ø Partial Clearing

Ø Residual Clearing

Partial Clearing

4.8 Partial Clearing will be used where a part payment is made for a vendor open

item. For example - There is a vendor invoice of SAR 10,000/-. A part payment

for SAR 5000/- is made for the invoice.

made. The system however, will not clear the invoice till the entire invoice

amount is cleared & all line items are shown as open items.

Residual Clearing

etc.

4.11 Considering the above example, In case of residual clearing R/3 system clears

the open line item to the extent of EGP 5000/- and generates a new line item for

the balance payable of EGP 5000/-. The default baseline date for the new

document would be Residual document date; however, the date may be changed

to any other dated.

4.12 During the clearing, the residual amount i.e. the balance amount needs to be

entered against the original open item.
