Financial Accounting Basics in SAP Business One
- „ There is a debit to the customer account for the total price of the sale
- „ There is a credit to the tax account for sales tax and a credit to the revenue account for the sales price (excluding tax)
„The Account Balance
The transaction summary or the balance of a certain G/L account or business partner is the initial information the accounting system can provide about the business. With every journal entry transaction, a certain account increases and another decreases in value. The result is the recording of balancing debit side and credit side postings.
The effect on the account balance would be:
- Assets, Expenses, and Drawings accounts are generally in debit
- Liability, Revenue, and Capital (Equity) accounts are generally in credit
Control Accounts
The control accounts are the links between the Business Partner’s sub-ledger and general ledger. They are the Accounts Receivable (A/R) for the Sales process and Accounts Payable (A/P) for the Purchasing procedures.
Chart of Accounts
The Chart of Accounts presents the complete financial status of the company. It reflects the accumulation of the customers’ and vendors’ transactions in their balances within the receivable and payable control accounts.
How The Software System Knows the Values
The Business Partner Master Data balances are represented in the chart of accounts in the receivable and payable control accounts that accumulate the customer and vendor transactions in their balances. In an A/R Invoice the system “˜knows’ the value to be credited and debited in the automatic journal entry using the default price list as defined in the customer master record and the item price in this price list. In a Delivery the system “˜knows’ the value to be credited and debited in the automatic journal entry using the item cost value that is calculated automatically, behind the scenes, according to the valuation method chosen for the item.
