Here you will find basic tutorials for configuration SAP FICO. From my point of view, it is better to
make a full SAP FICO Configuration from A to Z and then to dive into the details. In this way, you will
start to understand much faster what you will see in the advanced books. These tutorials are part of
my learning of SAP and my search for valuable materials which will help you to become a SAP FICO
Consultant.

period variant and chart of accounts configuration before step in to creating controlling area. Fiscal
year variant is used for ensuring the correct period posting of the accounting documents . Fiscal
year could be based on the calendar year as well as based on your needs, e.g April-March. The periods

for posting. This is an important control tool for every organization which has monthly closing. Usually
every posting period is assigned to one company code, but you could assign one posting variant to
many company codes. In this way you will control all the entities in once which has pros and cons.
Despite the strict dates you agree with other departments in your organization there will always be a
cases where for some operation, period should be open. So you should very carefully consider whether
you are going to define one posting period for several company codes or you will have one for each.

Assign Posting Period Variant to Company Code | OBBP

creation. You could have external and internal managed number ranges. The internal ranges are auto-
incremented from the system while the external ranges are assigned manually/automatically from
interfaces with other modules or systems. You are able to define number ranges with alphanumeric
names. Therefore you are able to define number ranges with the same name as your document types
which will help you to follow and maintain them afterwards.
You could also share one number range to two or more document types which could probably be a
nice idea for Invoices and Credit Notes for example. Keep in mind also that number ranges are defined
per company code and are not shared between them.
