Assignment Description

Task 1: Financials

Display General Ledger Account

Use the SAP Fiori Launchpad to display a General Ledger account in your chart of accounts. Businesses commonly maintain several bank accounts (e.g. payroll, general checking and money market) that are listed on their balance sheet. Each G/L account being used by a company code has both chart of account and company code specific information. In this way, a chart of accounts may be used by several company codes with each having their own unique information and settings. To do this, choose the app Manage G/L Account Master Data. Select GBI Global in the Chart of Accts. Find GL00 for G/L Account, assign 100000 for G/L Account. Back in the screen Manage G/L Account Master Data check if the field Chart of Account is just filled with GL00 in the Chart of Accounts field. Click on the account number (100000) to display the G/L account data and take a screenshot and provide it here:
