Explanation: Integration Between SAP S/4HANA Finance and Sourcing and Procurement

Understanding how transaction keys are assigned to account assignments is essential for smooth integration between SAP S/4HANA Finance and Sourcing and Procurement. Ensuring that G/L accounts are correctly determined and assigned enables accurate financial reporting and streamlined procurement processes. 

Define G/L Accounts for Materials Management

Within SAP S/4HANA, the process of defining G/L accounts for materials management involves setting up Account Modification or General Modification using transaction codes. 

Transaction Code: OMWN

  • This key is crucial for determining different G/L accounts for the same type of goods movement, depending on its origin and target. 
  • When making offsetting entries for inventory postings, the key is assigned to the transaction key for the movement type in T-code: OMWN. 
Understanding and configuring these settings properly allows the system to accurately propose accounts for various scenarios such as purchasing non-stock materials or performing inventory postings.
