This book provides comprehensive, step-by-step configuration information for using Documenting Splitting and Balanced Scorecard in the New G/L.
The International Accounting Standards (IFRS-8) and many other legal requirements (IFRS, US GAAP, Other GAAPs) mandate that companies publish their accounting records for individual lines of business and separate geographical areas, otherwise known as segments. The key objective of segment-level reporting is to report fully-balanced financial information ("scorecards") according to strict criteria and compliance regulations. Historically, companies have had to use a variety of labor-intensive and unreliable workarounds to get the segment-level financial information to regulators. With the introduction of the New G/L in SAP ERP Financials, however, help has come in the form of Document Splitting for Balanced Scorecard Reporting.
Document Splitting uses a new system object, the Segment, to allow companies to "split" the documents created as part of financial transactions according to the segment to which they are assigned. For example, a sales order for a product "booked" by the U.S. headquarters, manufactured in India, and shipped to a customer in Spain would be automatically "split" according to the line of business and geographical segments defined in the system, saving financial analysts from having to "split" it manually at reporting time. "Split" documents are then automatically organized for the new Balanced Scorecard Reporting interface, which allows for seamless, reliable regulatory reporting for both internal and external audits. Document Splitting is completely system-driven and goes unnoticed by the user at the interface level.
The primary purpose of the book is to provide implementation team members, functional finance professionals, and consultants with a roadmap for configuring and implementing Document Splitting and Balanced Scorecard. The focus of the book is on helping the target group configure Document Splitting in the New G/L to incorporate and establish defined segments for use in the Balanced Scorecard reporting tool.
