Importance of Period-End Closing
Overview

• The Period-End closing process covers all activities to deliver Period-End reporting packages for:
• Statutory and management reporting
• Mandatory statutory declarations
• The Period-End closing process is interdependent on other processes in SAP, and to follow the right sequence across all
relevant modules, ledgers and interfaces.
• The Period-End closing is mainly divided in two parts, month-end closing and year-end closing.
• The closing processes enable an effective cut-off that is necessary to freeze transaction processing-related activities in a
given period and provide a framework for reliable financial and non-financial evaluations.

Sales and from FO systems (Trading One, Sharp, EKA, K3), Treasury which sends information to SAP S/4 HANA.
• Several tasks – such as tax adjustments, reconciliations, manual journals, sub ledgers close and fixed assets depreciation
– are performed by the Financial Accounting team during the closing process in SAP.
• Some other tasks, such as cost allocation, are performed by the Controlling team.
• The closing processes are performed in order to prepare and publish the financial statements and other reports from both
legal and group perspective (including all reporting packages to BPC).
• As part of the year-end closing process, parallel ledger adjustments are performed by creating an accounting document.

Month-End Closing Flow & Closing Cockpit concept
Local Period-End Closing

• For controlling and monitoring the complexity of all required closing activities – regional (time zones), technical (FO-interfaces)
and functional (different GAAPs) - in the right sequence, CIL plans to use the SAP Financial Closing Cockpit (as a central activity
manage by PT). It enables a better quality and in-time delivery of all required reports and declarations to the appropriate
authorities according to the specific GAAP, regulation, and audit compliance requirements.

Posting Period End Closing
Local Period-End-Closing

• Posting periods are defined in the fiscal year variants assigned to company codes. SAP provides the option to open and close
these posting periods for posting.
• Usually, only the current posting period is open for posting, all other posting periods are closed. At the end of this posting period,
the period is closed, and the next posting period is opened. The authorization for opening/closing posting period would reside
with a selected few. It is also possible to open/close period for selected General Ledger, Vendor, Customer or Asset accounts.
• Special periods will be open for closing postings during year-end closing.
• There are two times intervals, Time Period 1 and Time Period 2. In each interval, a period limit and the fiscal year are specified.
• A period can be closed by selecting the period specifications. Authorization groups can also be assigned for
permitted posting periods. This means that during a month-end or year-end closing, some posting periods can be opened for
specific users only (Accountants). The authorization group has an effect only on Time Period 1.

Financial Closing Cockpit
Closing Cockpit P1 PT

• SAP S/4HANA Financial Closing Cockpit supports in planning, executing, monitoring, and analyzing financial closing tasks
for the entities of corporate groups.

• Closing Cockpit is used:


• In activities that recur periodically
• For multiple responsible agents involved
• When the activities are performed within a process that has a fixed chronological sequence or is determined by
dependencies
• When the activities need to be supported by a shared, uniform interface for everyone involved
• When the status of all periodic activities need to be documented and made transparent and available for everyone
involved

Financial Closing Cockpit
Closing Cockpit P1 PT

• CIL needs to run Closing Cockpit for Period-End closing, based on a plan which helps in understanding the existing closing
process from start to end.

• This involves:
• Tasks to be performed
• The order of performing the tasks
• Who owns the task
• Who executes the task
• Who reviews and approves the results after the task has been completed
• How long the task takes to be completed (run time)
• The post-close audit requirements

Authorization in Closing Cockpit
Closing Cockpit P1 PT

• To set-up Closing Cockpit, all required steps must be identified in a task list reflecting the organizational hierarchy and the
dependent closing process step sequence must be predefined to enter the flow definition in the template.
• The task defines the activities that users can perform and analyzes execution results.
• CIL can maintain authorization control for users at the application, task group, template, task list, organizational unit, and
task level.
• The authorization checks at the application, template, task list, and task group level are mandatory; the authorization checks
at the organizational unit level and at the task level are optional.
• The system checks user authorization top-down. The system grants authorization to perform an activity only when the
authorization to perform the preceding higher-level activities are granted.

Detailed Authorization Check Logic
Closing Cockpit P1 PT

• As the figure shows, to have the authorization to perform an activity on an organizational unit, the user must have the
corresponding authorization at the template or task list level.

Organizational Hierarchies for the Closing Process
Closing Cockpit P1 PT

• Organizational hierarchies are used to systematically organize the closing process. This helps avoid applying identical
process steps to each of the independent accounting units of the same type.
• SAP delivers the following organizational levels:
• Controlling Area
• Company Code
• Plant
• Controlling Area/Company Code
• Controlling Area/Plant
• Company Code/Plant
• Controlling Area/Company Code/Plant

What is a Task?
Closing Cockpit P1 PT

• A Task is created to identify the activities that need to be performed as part of the overall closing process in a
template.
• This allows users of the Financial Closing Cockpit application to navigate to the required activities from the central
interface.
• In the task, Global IDs have to be maintained to specify the tasks whose status need to be monitored.
• The Global ID Monitor can be used to display the tasks that have been assigned to a global ID.
• The global ID is useful for tracking the status of the tasks that have been assigned to different organizational units.
• With the Global ID Monitor, these tasks can be monitored from a single access point rather than having to open
each task list to check.

Types of Tasks
Closing Cockpit P1 PT

The Closing Cockpit at CIL has the following types of tasks:

Programs with program variants


Transactions Notes
(background processing)
Standard programs are available for
processing activities in the Use notes to simplify complex
background. If these programs are processes. For example, you can list
included in the task list template with Start online transactions manually the necessary organizational
corresponding parameters (that is, from the task list and go directly preliminary activities that cannot be

Task Groups
Closing Cockpit P1 PT

• A task group is a special template that allows folders and tasks to be assigned to ordinary templates . A folder or task contains
fields, such as its description, whose values you specify when creating or editing the folder or task. During the task group
assignment, all the field values are copied to the template. Multiple task groups can be assigned to a template.

• The users will only see their own activities and


transactions.
• Only the manager who has created the task list will be
able to see all the activities and transactions within it.
• If the line manager is authorized, he can also perform
the task.
• Tasks can be delegated from one user to another.
However, while assigning tasks, it must be ensured
that the user is authorized to perform the task.

Additional Features of Closing Cockpit
Closing Cockpit P1 PT

Template A template is used to structure the individual steps of a process. The relevant activities are
accessible in tasks that are executed online or in background processing.
Exporting and Importing Templates With this process, CIL can export and import folders and tasks in templates in the Comma
Separated Values (CSV) file format. This allows the templates to be edited outside the SAP
system before importing the changes back into the system. This allows the creation, change,
and deletion of multiple folders and tasks in a template, all at once.
Defining Dependencies As required by the organizational structure, some tasks might need to be processed in a certain
order. To meet this requirement, business or system-related dependencies can be defined for
these tasks.
Sending Email Notifications You can configure the system to send email notifications to the responsible agent of a task list
and the processor of a task when the conditions for triggering a notification scenario are met. A
notification scenario describes the circumstance in which email notifications should be sent.
Task List Related When a task list is released, an email can be sent to the responsible agents and the
processors of the tasks in the list, to inform them that they have been assigned tasks.
Prerequisite Task Restarted When a prerequisite task for a successive task is restarted, an email can be sent to the
responsible agent and the processor of the successive task to inform them that they might
need to restart their task.

Notification Scenarios in SAP
Closing Cockpit P1 PT

Task Error or Cancelled When a task has an error or is cancelled during execution, an email can be sent to the
responsible agent and the processor of the task to inform them that they need to fix the error.
Planned End Time of Task When the planned end time of a task is approaching, an email can be sent to the
Approaching responsible agent and the processor of the task to inform them that they need to complete the
task. By default, the system sends email notifications for this scenario 24 hours before the
planned end time of a task, at an interval of 8 hours.
Creating and Releasing Task Lists To perform activities included in a task list, you need to specify variant values. You can define
the structured process flow in a generic template and then create a task list with specific
parameter values. The task list generated from the template automatically updates the time-
related program parameters of the selection variants when you enter the corresponding header
information for the task list.
Cross Template Monitor After assigning tasks in a task group to templates and then creating task lists from the
templates, you can use the Cross Template Monitor to display the status of these tasks in the
task lists. In this way, you can monitor these tasks from a single access point rather than
having to open each task list to check.
