Accounting in practice – ERP/SAP example Accounting logic in ERP is all about configuration & master data Configuraton update by developers Master data update by end users (centralize) Data hierarchy & account assignment logic P&L and BS links in interated logistics – actually basics simple, configuration not that simple, and volume of transactions create pain Interfaces from other systems Transaction accounting –> Closing –> Subsidiary financials Management reporting <-> Legal consolidation (integrated up-to Consolidation or not ? ) Copyright: Heikki Puomila/KLBR Industries Oy

Revenue process – ERP Master Data Sales Order Goods Issue Sales order -> (no postings until invoicing) MM/Movement type: goods issue Customer code -> Accounts receivable; General Ledger reconciliation account Material code -> Profit center e. g. Business unit X Sales info records -> price e. g. per customer Acc'ts receivables Sales Plant code -> Legal company code (delivery plant, can be different than sales cocd, ref. To intercompany postings) Material code -> Inventory and cost of goods sold account (e. g. raw materials or finished goods) Material code -> unit price of material (std or avg) Inventories Finished goods 100 (3) (4) Payment Delivery Sales area -> Legal sales company code Material code -> Sales/Revenue account Invoicing Cost of goods sold (3) Bank acc't 100 150 (4) 150 (5) VAT/Tax postings excluded for simplification 150 Copyright: Heikki Puomila/KLBR Industries Oy

Revenue process – Before ERP’s Master Data Sales Order Goods Issue Invoicing Payment Legacy accounting systems logic typically Sales, inventory accounting and logistics in non-integrated systems with interface to accounting Key difference: Inventory related cost impact posting done via ’change in inventories’ Profit & Loss account (+/-) typically at period end on totals Though, you can build similar logic with ERP, but is it wise?

Material inventory purchase process Master Data Purchase Order Goods Receipt Purchase order (no postings until goods receipt) MM/Movement type: goods receipt -> account Vendor code -> Accounts payables; General Ledger reconciliation account Plant code -> Legal company code (warehouse) Material code -> Material Inventory account (e. g. raw materials, semi-finished goos or finished goods) Acc't Payables Inventories (3) 95 (4) (5) 95 GR/IR concept Posting key: vendor posting debit or credit ’Matching account’ to record liability posting from GR and match to invoice posting Quantity or price differences -> accuracy in PO & GR! -> Beware: DUMBSTER on your backyard GR/IR matching Goods receipts/ Invoice receipts 100 (3) 100 5 (4) Payment Goods delivered (input only PO # & quantity) Purchase organization -> Legal company code Price -> from contract based master data or manual entry Invoicing (4) Bank account VAT/Tax postings excluded for simplification 100 95(5) Copyright: Heikki Puomila/KLBR Industries Oy

Material inventory purchase process – Before ERP’s Master Data Purchase Order Goods Receipt Invoicing Payment Legacy accounting systems logic typically Material purchases to an equivalent P&L account Oftentimes summary bookings from non-integrated inventory accounting systems with interface to accounting -> challenge in matching inventory goods receipts value to posted invoices (in SAP ERP the GR/IR concept) Note: Still, inventory related cost impact posting done via ’change in inventories’ Profit & Loss account (+/-) typically at period end on totals Though, you can build similar logic with ERP, but is it wise?

Operating expenses purchasing process Master Data Purchase Order Goods Receipt Purchase order (no postings until goods receipt) Invoicing Payment Goods delivered (input only PO # & quantity) Purchase organization -> Legal company code MM/Movement type: goods receipt -> account Vendor code -> Accounts payables; General Ledger Plant code -> Legal company code (used also for reconciliation account operating expense purchasing) ”Material” code -> cost account Invoicing & GR/IR concept Cost assignment -> cost center Posting key: vendor posting debit or credit ’Matching account’ to record liability posting OPEN ORDER BOOK?

General ledger entries G/L Account Master data Posting keys Cost assignments Document type Document Refs & headers No real difference to other accounting systems, but automatic and configuarble controls of data integrity are better and extensive – key examples (equivalent also to bank account & treasury postings) G/L account master data drives requirements to cost assignment postings -> is e. g. cost center, profit center, material code required Posting key determines account type and debit or credit (e. g. 31 vendor + DB; 01 customer + CR; 40 GL account + DB; 50 GL account + CR) G/L account master data for reconciliation accounts between AP & AR and asset accounting G/L account master data to protect automatic posting accounts (e. g. from logistics transactions) to avoid loss of data integrity and fraud Document type can be determined for external system interfaces only or even use restricted with authorizations (e. g. hiding fraud transactions to document type with inventory postings) Document headers and reference fields oftentime used to provide additional information, which then can be used for data sorting and search (e. g. accruals per unit) DATA STRUCTURES allow systematic preventive control (not always effectively configured) but also sophisticated detective control (not used often) Copyright: Heikki Puomila/KLBR Industries Oy

Asset accounting Asset master data Depreciation area Asset class G/L accounts Asset accounting is integrated to general ledger Asset master data (individual assets) are linked to asset classes and further to depreciation areas Asset classes are linked to different type of accounts e. g. Buildings, software, hardware. . . Depreciation areas determine the depreciation rules Asset and depreciation accounts are linked to master data and all postings go via individual assets (purchase, periodical depreciation run, scrapping etc) Copyright: Heikki Puomila/KLBR Industries Oy
