Hi,
The order the first guy gave you is misleading. It seems he
does not want to get into SAP. Obviously the order he gave
me was not correct.
If you are planning to move Traditional Finance to SAP FI,
first try to get a handle on SAP FI. So for the time being
just forget about Treasury. You will not be able to get a
grip on Treasury unless you are well versed with FI and CO.
So concentrate on this order
1.FI-G/L,A/P, A/R,Banking,Assets - FIND an SAP FI Job
2.Then get a handle on Materials Ledger and brief
introduction into SD, MM, HR, PP. (Do not have to master
it, but just understand the initial process of this modules
and how it interacts with FICO)
3.Then master CO- Product Costing, Internal Orders,COPA
etc. However mastering CO without a job in SAP FI is not an
easy task.
Mostly once you get a job in SAP FI you will figure out
what to do. So do not delay GET A JOB IN SAP FI. FORGET
ABOUT TREASURY.
OTHERWISE YOU WILL BE ALWAYS SEARCHING FOR WAYS TO MASTER
EVERYTHING AND YOU WILL NEVER GET A SAP JOB

SAP DEPRECIATION RUN ERROR: I have a problem with depreciation posting. I have searched the forum but did not find any answer. Net book value of $ 559,350 as on April 2012 was fully depreciated by 31 Mar 2017. Additions between April 2012 and March 2017 were correctly depreciated. However, additions from 01 Apr 2017 were fully depreciated when depreciation program was executed. For example, asset acquisition on 01 May 2017 $ 2400 was fully depreciated ($ 2400) which is not correct. It should be $ 2000*20%/12*11 = $ 440. Subsequently, in Jan 2018, on the acquisition of $ 207, the system has posted a positive depreciation of $ 47,469 on the base value of $ 1,640,423.72!!! More surprisingly, acquisition after that is correctly depreciated. For example, acquisition on Jan of $ 3,488.94 was correctly depreciated by $ 174.45 (3488.94*20%/12*3 months). Here are the details of the configuration of depreciation: · Depreciation method SLM · Base method 0014 · Useful life: 5 years (20% depreciation). · Period control 01/01/01/01 · Depreciation after the end of planned life – the box is “checked”. · There is only ordinary depreciation. · “Only negative values and zero allowed” checked in Rule for positive/negative sign for ordinary depreciation in Depreciation Area. · Fiscal year: April to March · SAP ECC 6.0 Can anybody suggest/help how to fix this?
What is fast entry? : fi- general ledger accounting
Hello all, a doubt on F-32 knock off clearing. I am using F-32, partial payment tab, for knocking off between Receivable (DR) and Collection (DZ). Senario: If the collection amount (DZ) is more than receivables (DR), after the entry when i check in FBL5N and F-32 open items, the Collection (DZ) amount is unchanged eventhough a part of the amount is paid against Receivables DR. Lets say, DR-500, DZ - 1000. After entry DR gets cleared. but DZ remain 1000. Could any one help me on this?
