SAP Financial Accounting (SAP FI)
The Financial Accounting (SAP FI) module in SAP is designed to capture organizationsbusiness
transactions in a manner that will satisfy external reporting requirements. Local legal considerations are pre-
delivered with the system and the ability to manage and report on multiple companies in multiple countrieswith multiple currencies is part of standard functionality. Integration with Sales and Distribution, Purchasing
and Materials Management allows for the ability to select any financial transaction and "Drill Down" to the
originating transaction whether it is a purchase Order, Sales Order or material movement.
Financial Accounting includes the following sub-modules:
General Ledger (FI-GL) Accounts Payable (FI-AP) Accounts Receivable (FI-AR) Bank Accounting (FI-BL) Asset Accounting (FI-AA) Funds Management (FI-FM) Travel Management (FI-TV) Special Purpose Ledger (FI-SL) (I am not sure this is really considered a module anymore)
The flexibility of the Finance modules organizational structure gives the module the ability to handle any
economic situation. Whether a smaller organization with a single legal entity or a large organization with
numerous companies, consolidations and varying legal requirements, the FI module can support and
automate most financial postings and reporting. Below is a listing of the main organizational elements in the
Finance module:
Company Code- Represents a legal reporting entity. There can be numerous company codes withinan organization. Each has its own balanced books and reports itself as a single economic entity.
Credit Control Area- If credit management is being used, this sets the general parameters for howcredit is managed. The credit control area can control credit for a single company code representing a
decentralized credit management approach or multiple company codes representing a more
centralized credit management approach.
Chart of Accounts- The system supports single or multiple charts of accounts providing the abilityto record transactions and report financially in many different regulatory environments. A chart of
accounts can support multiple Company Codes if necessary.

SAP Controlling (SAP CO)
The purpose of the Controlling (CO) module in SAP is to provide organizations with a method of slicing anddicing data to view costs from an internal management perspective and provide a view of profitability
beyond that of basic financial reporting. This allows the organization to create information in a manner that
is tailored to their specificbusiness measurements needs. Controlling allows an organization to:
Plan and track overhead costs within the company's specific organizational structure. Track costs related to specific projects or events and either capitalize those costs or charge them to
appropriate departments upon completion.
Perform "Activity Based Costing". Perform Product Costing, measuring production cost and variances. Report profitability by product line, division, or other internal measurement. Report sales and gross profitability by external measures such as market segments or customer
groups.
