anywhere using best practices.
Overview of SAP Finance Modules:
- SAP FI
Stands for Financial Accounting and it is one of important modules of SAP ERP. It is used to
store the financial data of an organization. SAP FI helps to analyze the financial conditions of a
company in the market. It can integrate with other SAP modules like SAP SD, SAP PP, SAP
MM, SAP SCM, etc.
SAP FI comprises of the following sub-components:

 Finance Accounting General Ledger.


 Finance Accounting Accounts Receivable and Payable.
 Finance Accounting Asset Accounting.
 Finance Accounting Bank Accounting

- SAP Controlling (CO)


It is another important SAP module offered to an organization. It supports coordination,
monitoring, and optimization of all the processes in an organization. SAP CO involves recording
both the consumption of production factors and the services provided by an organization.
SAP CO includes managing and configuring master data that covers cost and profit centers,
internal orders, and other cost elements and functional areas.
The main purpose of SAP controlling module is planning. It enables you to determine variances
by comparing actual data with plan data and thus enables you to control business flows in your
organization.

SAP CO Integration with Financial Accounting


Both SAP CO and SAP FI modules are independent components in a SAP system. The data flow
between these components takes place on a regular basis.

Data flows relevant to cost flows to Controlling from Financial Accounting. At the same time,
the system assigns the costs and revenues to different CO account assignment objects, such as
cost centers, business processes, projects or orders.
SAP Funds Management (FI-FM)
The functions in this component support you in creating budgets. The tasks of Funds
Management are to budget all revenues and expenditures for individual responsibility area,
monitor future funds movements in light of the budget available, and prevent budget overruns.
Integration
Funds Management is fully integrated with other components such as FI-GL and SAP MM.
We can divide Scope of work in three areas:

SAP PS “Project System

 Project System (PS)


PS is meant to manage large, complex projects such as setting up a new manufacturing plant or
monitoring a plant's maintenance turnaround. All project-specific procurement or production
through PS ensures that this component is able to allocate a project's costs correctly while
remaining within the defined project's budget.

 Purpose

Both large scale projects, such as building a factory, and small-scale projects, such as organizing a trade fair,
require precise planning of the many detailed activities involved. The project manager has the job of ensuring that
the project is executed efficiently, on time, and within budget - which he or she achieves by ensuring that the
required resources and funds are available as and when needed.
Projects are generally part of the internal processes of a company. To be able to control all tasks in project
execution, you need an organizational form that is specific to the project and which is shared by all departments
involved. Before you can carry out a project in its entirety, the project goals must be precisely described and the
project activities to be carried out must be structured. A clear, unambiguous project structure is the basis for
successful project planning, monitoring, and control.
You structure your project per the following points of view:
o By structures, using a work breakdown structure (WBS)
o By process, using individual activities (work packages)
o Project managers usually distinguish between two types of project:
o Externally financed projects
o Customer projects
o Internally financed projects
o Overhead cost projects
o Capital investment projects
o For further information on capital investment projects, see the SAP Library under Investment
Management (IM) .

 Integration
The high degree of integration between the Project System (PS) and other application components means that you
can plan, execute, and account for projects as part of your normal commercial procedures. This means the Project
System has constant access to data in all the departments involved in the project.

Project system is closely integrated with other SAP modules like logistics, material management, Sales and
Distribution, Plant Maintenance, and Production planning module.

The integration between SAP Project System PS with SAP S4hana Core application modules allows you to design,
plan, and execute the projects as part of your normal project procedure. Hence, Project System module has the
constant data access to all the departments involved in the project.

SAP PS system is tightly integrated with the following modules:

Finance and Controlling Module − To plan the costs and revenue in the project system as per the financial planning
requirements.

Material Management MM − To manage procurement and inventory functions occurring in project lifecycle.

Sales and Distribution Module − To manage the sales process in project lifecycle- includes quotations for customer
projects. This includes billing, selling, and shipping of goods and services required in project lifecycle.

Production Planning − To perform activities like material requirement planning MRP, Bills of material BOM,
material requisition as per MRP, capacity planning, and other production planning tasks in project lifecycle.

Other modules like plant maintenance, budget management, investment, etc.

In the following diagram, you can see SAP Project System is integrated with SAP R/3 modules during project
lifecycle.
 Features
The Project System guarantees close and constant monitoring of all aspects of your project.
This includes both technical and commercial aspects of the project.

Estimated Man days is 4 months

SAP Material Management:

Material Management function as an important SAP-Module which handles material/external service


procurement process, inventory management, and vendors’ invoice verification in the entire
organization. SAP-MM begins with determination of organization’s requirements, and then follows by
determination of source of supply, material procurement from external vendor or internal procurement,
goods receipt in storage location and issue to production lines or costs objects including project; cost
center; asset; order, and finally is finished through invoice verification. The SAP-MM implementation
makes sure the inventory is enough. The SAP-MM facilitates procurement processes and business flow
of material management results cost-effective inventory processes. In business environment,
organization requires to complete business flow through proving material or service from external
vendors or internal procurement. The SAP-MM represents basic procurement and special procurement
in such cases.

Applications:

Determination of requirements: Purchase Requisitions component can carry notification of


requirements of materials and/or external services and keep track of such requirements. Materials
and/or external services requirements can be indirectly created in SAP-MM via materials planning and
control, via networks (from the component PS Project System), via maintenance orders (from the PM
Plant Maintenance and Service Management component) or via production orders (from the PP
Production Planning and Control component).

Vendor Master Data: The SAP provides the function to maintain the information about external
suppliers that specifically relate to purchasing. Vendor master data comprises three areas; General data,
Company code data and Purchasing data; including the vendor’s name and address, the currency the
vendor uses, Terms of payment, Names of important contact persons, and the vendor number (stored in
the SAP system as an account number), and accounting information.

Request for quotation and quotation: In SAP-MM RFQ and quotation component manages and
compares requests for quotation (RFQs) issued to vendors and the quotations submitted by the latter in
response to them. In situation in which an RFQ has been issued to several vendors, the component
determines the most favorable quotation submitted and automatically generates letters of rejection to
the unsuccessful bidders.

Purchase order: The MM-purchase order component is provided for a variety of procurement purposes
upon which materials can be procured for direct consumption or for stock, and procure services.
Furthermore, the special procurement types "subcontracting", "third-party", and "consignment" are
possible. The purchase orders is used to cover the enterprise requirements from external sources
whether a vendor supplies a material or performs a service. Furthermore, MM-PO is provided to procure
a material for one of your plants from an internal source, i.e. from another plant which is called Stock
Transport order. All steps of procurement process can be monitored in the MM-PO component (such as
the receipt of goods and invoices).

Outline Purchase Agreement: SAP’s outline purchase agreement is presented to handle a longer-term
agreement between a purchasing organization and a vendor regarding the supply of materials or the
performance of services within a certain period. Outline Purchase Agreement enables you to
predetermine terms and conditions. In Purchasing function, Outline Agreement is classified into
Contracts (Centrally agreed contracts, distributed contracts), and Scheduling agreements (Scheduling
agreement referencing a centrally agreed contract.

Vendor evaluation: The SAP system database contains information about the vendors that supply an
enterprise and information such as delivery dates, prices, and quantities can be taken from the
Materials Management components, and the results of incoming inspections or quality audits from the
Quality Management components. Based upon the SAP’s database, the Vendor Evaluation component
provides the accurate information on prices, and terms of payment and delivery, and improves the
enterprise's competitiveness. Furthermore, Vendor Evaluation is applied to measure the reliability of the
vendors whom provides services on a plant whether the vendors perform the services within the
specified timeframes and appraise the quality of the work carried out.

Down Payment and Down Payment Request: Depending on the contractual agreement with your
vendor, you can determine a suitable down payment category in the purchase order accompanied by
the down payment amount or a percentage and a due date. Both Logistics Invoice Verification and
Financial Accounting component can be used to clear down payments. If you perform down payment
clearing in logistics invoice verification, when you enter an incoming invoice for a purchase order, the
system proposes all down payments that have been posted with reference to the purchase order and
that are not yet completely cleared, for down payment clearing. The system posts the down payment
clearing document together with the invoice document. If you want to clear down payments in financial
accounting instead of logistics invoice verification, the down payment clearing is posted with reference
to the purchase order and the invoices already posted. During the payment run, the system offsets the
down payment made against the invoices.

Consignment Procurement: In consignment processing, materials are procured and stored on your
premises while the legal owner of the material is the vendor till withdrawing materials from the
consignment stores. In Consignment Procurement, the vendor invoice must be immediately issued after
you withdraw materials from the consignment stores into your stock or for consumption.

Direct Procurement: Sometimes, materials/external services procurement is processed for an especial


subject. In such case, the purchase requisitions bypass the warehouse and are set with an especial
account assignment category, i.e. cost center. You can determine the cost object of the direct
procurement in PO in order to simplify and facilitate the direct procurement.

Return to vendor: If you have received materials from external vendor which are spoiled, broken or of
inferior quality/damaged and you have to send it back to vendor. Applying return corrects a goods
receipt and issues a credit memo against the vendor which it takes into account in Invoice verification. In
this case, return to vendor process is executed upon with/without Delivery. SAP-MM enables you to
post Return goods to vendor with/without reference to purchasing Documents, i.e. a purchase order.

Intercompany process: Increasingly trend towards globalization and the rapid increase in the number of
company mergers are considerably effected on internal financial and logistical processes within
corporate groups. In this situation, a plant which is actually a member of the same corporate group may
procure components from a supplier that, despite legally and technically belonging to a different
company. In the procuring plant, an ordering process is completely carried out from supplying plant as a
vendor. Upon such process, Intercompany stock transfer order, you can achieve a complete price
determination process, monitor delivery of the goods, and use the vendor confirmations (which may or
may not be MRP-relevant). In the supplying plant, you can also process a complete sales order
processing cycle including order entry (with the receiving plant as the customer), a sales-side price
determination function, delivery and billing options, and monitoring of the document flow.
Inventory Management: The SAP’s inventory management represents material stock management on a
quantity and value basis, planning, entry, and documentation of all goods movements, and carrying out
the Physical Inventory. SAP-IM implementation enables you to track the current stock situation of any
given material at any time, and to manage various types of a company’s own special stocks and
externally owned special stocks separately from standard stock. All goods movements including
"external" movements (goods receipts from external procurement, goods issues for sales orders) and
"internal" movements (goods receipts from production, withdrawals of material for internal purposes,
stock transfers, and transfer postings) automatically update quantity and value for Inventory
Management, account assignment for cost accounting, G/L accounts for financial accounting via
automatic account assignment.

Goods Movement: Goods receipt, goods issue, stock transfer, stock posting as goods movement update
quantities and values in SAP-MM-IM. The receipt of goods from an external vendor or from production
as goods receipt (GR) leads to an increase in warehouse stock. Based upon SAP-IM, you can accomplish
Goods receipt with/without references document such as reservation, or an order. A material
withdrawal or material issue, a material consumption, or a shipment of goods to a customer as goods
issue (GI) leads to a reduction in warehouse stock. Such goods movement leads to update quantities and
value of stock.

Stock Transfer and Transfer Posting: The removal of material from one storage location and replace into
another storage location as Stock transfer can be carried out either within the same plant or between
two plants. And, a transfer posting as a general term for stock transfers changes stock type or stock
category of a material, i.e. Transfer postings from material to material, Release from quality inspection
stock, Transfer of consignment material into company's own stock. In SAP-IM, Stock transfer can carry
out upon three different procedures as follows:

o Stock transfer via stock transfer posting using the one-step procedure,
o Stock transfer via stock transfer posting using the two-step procedure,
o Stock transfer using a stock transport order.

External service procurement: MM External Services Management function supports the complete cycle
of vendor invitation, award/order placement phase, and acceptance of services, as well as the invoice
verification process. MM External Services Management is completely integrated into the MM system
with providing the purchasing documents in which service specifications for a concrete procurement
project are entered. The External Services Management component as also integrated to the SAP
modules Plant Maintenance and Project System upon which purchase requisition is created for external
services within the framework of maintenance measures or a project and then transmitted to
Purchasing without incurring additional data maintenance work.

Benefits:

 SAP-MM’s fully integration with Financial Accounting, Quality Management, Sales Distribution,
Logistic Execution, Plant Maintenance and Project System provides subsequently default data
for the purchasing documents and other following documents.
 SAP-MM integration with other modules leads to reduce data entry and user errors.

1. SAP HCM Core

SAP HCM module is the apt software for the HR department of an organization. The job of an HR is much beyond
just recruiting. From hiring professionals to managing details of designation, payment, compensation, promotion
etc., are taken care by the HR. SAP HCM module enables one to keep a better track of everything.

SAP HCM streamlines, automates administrative HR tasks and reduces associated time and costs. This frees your
HR staff to focus on activities that generate real business value and enables HR and line managers to improve their
productivity. At the same time, you can standardize and consolidate all workforce-related core processes and data
onto a single platform, while adhering to local regulations and laws.

SAP provides unmatched support for legal and business requirements in many countries to enable expansion into
new markets and geographies. SAP HCM also provides a single, accurate source of employee data that is available
in real time throughout your organization. Features and functions along with related solutions include:
A. Personnel Administration
Automate all basic processes related to personnel and employee information management.
Use a centralized database that enables employees and management to access up-to-date, consistent information
that supports HR- and business-related decisions.
Personnel Administration enables you to manage many benefits processes, storing information on employees by
date and time. Regional HR organizations can access flexible, localized processes delivered for many countries.
There is also support for data and document archiving.

How SAP Employee Administration Fits into an Enterprise


Because it is the central database for storing employee data, the Employee Administration function is the key
component in SAP ERP HCM. When companies use SAP ERP HCM, this function is the most frequently accessed
part of the solution.

All other employee-related HCM processes, such as recruiting, performance management, and payroll, reference
and make decisions based on the data stored in this function, so employee administration sits at the heart of your
company.

The Employee Administration function is built around the Personnel Administration (PA) component, which is
where all your employees' data is stored. A large amount of the information input into other SAP ERP HCM
components ends up stored in PA and can be accessed from Employee Administration. This means that in addition
to your core employee data, you can view data from many of the other SAP ERP HCM components from inside the
Personnel Administration component.

designed to manage normal and shifts employees with the ability to integrate with the time and
attendance machines to calculate the overtime and deductions with the option to auto calculate in
payroll or with prior approvals.

Time Management facilitates effective time-management strategies. It provides convenient tracking,


monitoring, record keeping, and evaluation of time data. Time Management enables you to define and
manage working calendars and vacation allowances for global and localized processes for many
countries in one platform.

Time Recording enables you to record and manage time data effectively and efficiently. It provides you
with a comprehensive and effective business concept and related processes for manual and automatic
recording of personnel times. Time recording allows you to enter employee time data for working time,
leave, business trips, and substitutions using different methods.
