Duration and effort for the migration is small. It can be executed at any period end. It is supported by a migration guide and monitor. There is no required SAP migration service. Changes to coding blocks, external interfaces, security, reporting etc. are optional The New G/L is NOT a pre-requisite for an implementation of the G/L in SAP Accounting Both, customers with the classic G/L or the new G/L can implement SAP Accounting. The G/L in SAP Accounting is more powerful than the New G/L in SAP ERP It provides all the capabilities of the new G/L. It is further optimized for SAP HANA – e.g. no totals tables, universal journal. Additional Notes for Customers with the classic G/L As part of the migration, classic G/L data is automatically transferred to the new data structures. Existing PCA (profit center) and SL (special ledger) functions and features can remain in place. Subsequent optimization (like adoption of parallel ledger or document split) is a recommended later option. SAP plans to add respective optimization functionality in 2H 2015 (subject to change). Customers running a migration project to new G/L in SAP ERP with a planned go live in Jan 2016 should continue this project. © 2015 SAP SE or an SAP affiliate company.

Accounting Joint Venture Profitability Analysis Custom specific Universal Journal Legacy ERP 46 Universal Journal Content Planned Content 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 & extensibility This replaces the “logical document” of release 1.0. Secondary cost elements are G/L accounts. Data stored only once: no 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 BI extractor needed (instead of many today). © 2015 SAP AE or an SAP affiliate company. All rights reserved. 47 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.

Simplified extensibility by enhancing just this ONE line item table. No technical limitation on the number of dimensions (though performance to be considered) P&L line extension using “CO-PA capabilities”, i.e. field definition incl. rich derivation tools. “Coding Block” extensibility like in SAP ERP. The SAP HANA based reporting can use both kinds of customer fields. © 2015 SAP AE or an SAP affiliate company.
