More Details

There are many ways to post a journal in SAP S/4HANA. In addition to direct entry, you can schedule recurring journals to automatically post on a regular basis, or use pre-filled templates where you adjust certain values each time. You can set up journals that reverse automatically, or you can reverse them manually. You can hold or park journals before posting, and you can prepare multiple journals in Excel and upload them. In this article, I compare the different options and explain how to deal with any errors you might encounter. This article concentrates on less obvious functionality that may not be available in the standard SAP Help relating to an app, and various tips are included along the way. For example, this article goes through how to use ledger groups and special periods and gives some background on document splitting. It explains how the cross-company offset postings work and how to add additional fields to the journal upload template.
