SAP Accounting powered by SAP HANA Single Source of Truth & Highest Granularity

Reconciliation Challenges of the Current Architecture Multiple Sources of Truth Business Warehouse Challenges The combined content of several tables represents the truth in SAP ERP. Reconciliation efforts are required by design. Need to move data to the appropriate table for reporting (e.g. settlement ) Different level of detail stored in the respective components/tables Components are structured differently (e.g. fields/entities differ) Different capabilities in the components (customer fields, currencies, multi- GAAP etc.) Performance often required the usage of a data warehouse introducing another redundant repository. Multiple BW extractors needed to cover the complete truth in data warehouse. 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved. UNWRAP HAPPINESS WITH SAP 15

Universal Journal Single Source of Truth A universal journal entry can have (technically) up to 999,999 line items less or no need for summarization (depending on data volume) New Architecture Concept: Take the best of all worlds (e.g. ledger, market segment, coding block, etc.) One line item table with full detail for all applications - for instant insight & easy extensibility This replaces the logical document of SAP Accounting 1.0. Data stored only once: no more reconciliation needed - by design Reduction of memory footprint through elimination of redundancy. Fast multi-dimensional reporting possible without replicating data to business warehouse (BW). If BW is in place anyway, only one single extractor needed. Secondary cost elements are now G/L accounts. 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved. UNWRAP HAPPINESS WITH SAP 16

Enhancements of Profitability Analysis SAP Accounting focuses on the integration of account-based CO-PA Account-Based CO-PA Several enhancements delivered making it more powerful. It is planned to continue into this direction. Split of cost-of-goods-sold posting on multiple accounts (by cost component) Split of production variance posting on multiple accounts (differentiation of price / quantity effects) Three new quantity fields in CO line items + BAdI for conversion of logistic quantities to common quantities (e.g. products sold in different box sizes but KPI in Finance is calculated on tons/kg of products) Costing-Based CO-PA Product continues to exist and be supported, but no enhancements with SAP Accounting. Customers can run account-based and costing-based CO-PA in parallel. Customers should assess their valuation in FI versus valuation in costing-based CO-PA If different, continue using costing-based CO-PA If the same, customer may consider switching to account-based CO-PA. 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company.

Convergence of G/L Accounts and Cost Elements Master Data All cost elements are now G/L accounts. Differentiation by attribute account type in the G/L account master. Secondary cost elements are blocked against manual postings. Maintenance of cost elements is done via G/L account maintenance. The old cost element table is updated in the background. Hierarchies Secondary cost elements need to be added to the account hierarchy (FS stmt. version) Management accounting continues to work with cost element groups, currently. As a consequence, hierarchies need to be also maintained in CO for the moment. Multiple account assignments These are possible (e.g. cost element by internal order and cost center). There is one primary account assignment per cost element which is relevant for subsequent processes. 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved. UNWRAP HAPPINESS WITH SAP 23
