Universal Journal:
What is Universal Journal?
Universal Journal is a structure of single source of truth for both FI and CO modules business
transaction posting
Helps reporting in all components use data from the same journal entries
Simply speaking, Universal Journal is a one line item table of all dimensions from FI, CO, AA and
Material Ledger
Key Features of Universal Journal
Secondary cost elements are part of GL accounts and thereby uniformity is maintained
Universal Journal has got its own currency fields which brings currency concepts used in FI and CO
closer together
Universal Journal entries are written to a new table, ACDOCA. However, one can use the use data from
old tables
Significantly reduced memory footprint
Harmonized internal and external reporting
Deployable as central finance in case of diverse system landscapes
06/22/2015

Universal Journal (Continued …)
The new universal journal entry replaces the Financial Accounting (FI) document and the Controlling (CO) document with a universal document.
A journal entry is created for every business transaction in one of the following application components:
General Ledger Accounting (FI-GL)
Asset Accounting (FI-AA)
Controlling (CO)
Exception: Costing-based Profitability Analysis (CO-PA)
Material Ledger (CO-PC-ACT)
The introduction of the journal entry eliminates the need for the separation made previously between Financial Accounting (FI) and Controlling
(CO). Since financial accounting and managerial accounting are reconciled constantly, there is no longer any need for reconciliation between FI
and CO or between FI-GL and FI-AA, nor is there any need for the real-time integration of these components. The reports in all components use
data from the same journal entries
For this uniformity, all cost elements (primary and secondary) need to be portrayed as G/L accounts. Consequently, you no longer need
to enter the master data for cost elements separately; instead, you only need to create G/L accounts from now on
The universal journal entry has its own currency fields. This brings the currency concepts used in FI and CO closer together
The journal entry contains data for characteristics from all of these components. In the case of data that is not entered during
document entry or that is not determined by the business transaction, the system derives such data automatically from existing data. In
this way, you can analyze the data using characteristics from different components. For example, you can create a balance sheet at the
segment level
Effects on Existing Data: Universal journal entries are written to a new table, ACDOCA. Consequently, updates are no longer
made to some old tables. Nevertheless, you can continue to use reports that use data from these old tables. This is because
compatibility views for a data request from one of these tables read the data from ACDOCA

Simple Finance Business Values:
Financial Insights - end-2-end analytical capabilities
• Today, legal accounting is separate from Management accounting
(based on profit center and Profit center hierarchies)
• The two views can not be easily combined (e.g. Accounts
Receivable does not provide Information about Profit Center)
• Management reporting is based on aggregates with a set of pre-
defined joins with no possibilities to further drill down, e.g.
Information about DSO is available on company code and LoB only
but cannot be broken down to a specific area of responsibility (Profit
Center)
• Data structures are harmonized and integrated to form one logical
document across FICO (Accounts Receivable are combined with
Profit Center Information)
• Reporting is based on line items (no aggregates), therefore, new
reporting requirements can be easily implemented based on new
FICO joins/views
• This allows to perform end-to-end analysis and define new
responsibilities in many areas. E.g.
• Cash Management as integrated part of Business Steering (e.g.
more granular on DSO)
• Tax optimization (e.g. I/CO agreements for management license,
management overhead etc.)

Financial Reporting and Analytics Simplified:
Simplified Intercompany Reconciliations
Customers can replace the long running transactions and batch processes they might be using today for
achieving intercompany reconciliations. SAP Simple Finance provides a unified, single general ledger that
automatically achieves this reconciliation. This not only speeds up reconciliations, but also enables
simulations and thereby enhances a company's ability to plan and stay ahead of the curve
Integrated Planning
Unified models for enterprise-wide financial planning and reporting scenarios on a single source of truth.
This integration can eliminate any latency or discrepancies that might exist between operational systems and
analytical or planning systems and it enhances a company’s overall planning capabilities
In our next Webinar we will be discussing Financial Close and
Intenerated Planning in detail with a Live Demo
