Financials > Financial Accounting
New Features Description Target Users
Inclusion of multiple
activity prices in periodic
costing run
Allows the periodic costing run to use activity price from leading valuation to determine
the cost of goods manufactured according to the global accounting standard, and update
the inventory values accordingly
May also be used to calculate actual costs according to the local accounting standard, if
the group accounting approach is standard costs
Global manufacturing
companies with a requirement
to report according to multiple
GAAPs or to calculate actual
costs for the local GAAP
Transfer of depreciation
from asset accounting to
controlling
The depreciation values for the international accounting principle are updated to the
leading ledger in the SAP General Ledger application (or the global accounts in the
classic general ledger) and to version 0 in controlling. The depreciation values for the
second accounting principle are updated to a nonleading ledger in the SAP General
Ledger (or the local accounts in the classic general ledger) and to a delta version in
controlling.
Manufacturing customers who
report according to multiple
accounting standards
Calculation of activity
prices to reflect multiple
accounting approaches
During all operational processes (such as confirmations and backflushing in logistics),
the hours worked are valued with the planned activity rate in version 0 in controlling. At
period close, activity price calculation is used to determine the actual activity rates for
the leading version (international accounting standard) and the alternative version (local
GAAP) in that period. Both are calculated as deltas to the initial standard activity price.
Global manufacturing
organizations that report
according to multiple
accounting principles
Inclusion of multiple
activity rates in
alternative valuation run
Allows multiple valuation runs to be created to determine the value of the cost of goods
manufactured. The periodic costing run uses the activity price for the leading valuation
(version 0) while the alternative valuation run uses the activity price for the alternative
valuation. It is then possible to revaluate inventory (create closing entries) to take
account of both valuations.
Global manufacturing
organizations that report
according to multiple

Benefits
Removes the need for substantial manual work to determine inventory values according to multiple accounting principles

(including promise-to-pay agreements, creation of dispute cases, and resubmission) to
the customers with outstanding receivables from the non-SAP systems.

Support for SAP R/3
4.6c in SAP Collections
Management
This feature provides a framework to facilitate a common and unified collection process
independent of where the outstanding receivables originate from. Technically the
accounts receivable data from the SAP R/3 4.6c system is loaded into SAP Collections
Management. This enables worklist creation and the execution of collection calls for the
customers with outstanding receivables from the SAP R/3 4.6c system. Note: The
integration of SAP R/3 4.6c into SAP Collections Management is very similar to the
integration of non-SAP systems into SAP Collections Management. However, it is very
different from the integration of SAP R/3 systems 4.7 or higher into SAP Collections
Management.

FVH: Stock in local
currency hedged with
OTC option against
price risk
In EHP4, stocks could be hedged only with forward securities transactions (FST) against
the price risk. Now, the customer can hedge stocks by using OTC options against price
risk. The system automatically splits the stock‟s overall change at valuation by posting
the option‟s security change below the strike price to the P&L and the remainder to OCI,
if the hedging relationship is effective at the valuation date.
All companies that invest in
financial assets and want to
hedge the price risk, both
business- and accounting-wise,

FVH: Stock in valuation
currency unequal to
local currency hedged
with FST
In EHP4, users could hedge stocks with forward securities transactions (FST) only in
local currency against the price risk. Now, the customer can hedge stocks in foreign
currency by using FSTs against price risk. The system automatically splits the overall
change of the stock at valuation by posting the security change to the P&L and the FX
change to other comprehensive income (OCI), if the hedging relationship is effective at
the valuation date.
All companies that invest in
foreign financial assets and
want to hedge the price risk,
both business- and accounting-
wise
FVH: Rollover for
hedging relationships
Customers have an option to prolong an existing hedging relationship without dissolving
the OCI that existed since designation. There are two possibilities for a rollover:
1. Operational rollover - the designated FST is rolled over and the hedging
relationship inherits the new end-of-term date
2. Rollover by replacement - the designated FST is replaced by a new one.
Both rollovers can also be done as partial rollovers, which means that the number of
designated units is decreased during rollover.
All companies with an interest
in a rollover strategy for their
hedged financial assets
Benefits
Hedge management for financial instruments, including a single point of entry for auditor inquiries and hedge-related activities (identify items and

New Features Description Target Users
Enhancements in
interfaces and
effectiveness test
The dollar-offset method is most widely used to calculate the effectiveness of a hedging
relationship. However, the dollar-offset method has a problem in small changes to the
hedged item and the hedging instrument, which results in ineffectiveness.
This change enables use of the Schleifer method, which eliminates the small change
issue and is widely accepted as a proper test method. Additionally, the linear regression
method is also an effective test method.
All companies that use hedge
management for financial asset
management
Bewertungseinheiten:
Units of valuation
Unit of Valuation (UoV) refers to a German GAAP requirement. By using UoV, the
customer can designate one hedged item with one or more hedging instruments.
Designation can be done without an effectiveness test and without documentation
(customizable). If a UoV is valuated, the system transfers the market value of the
instrument(s) to the market value of the item and uses the position management
procedure of the item with this market value. The value of the instrument is set to zero.
All companies that hedge
financial assets according to
German GAAP
FVH: Bond hedged with
interest rate swap
against interest rate risk
With EHP5, the customer can hedge fixed rate bonds by interest rate swaps (which
exchange the fixed interest rate payments for variable payments) against interest rate
risk. The system automatically calculates a credit spread at designation.
If the hedging relationship is effective at the key date, then during valuation the system
splits up the change of the bond and posts as follows:
the part related to credit spread to OCI
the part related to hedge amortization to P&L
the hedge adjustment (which is the difference between hedge amortized costs and
hedge fair value) to P&L

Fin. instruments:
forward loan purchase,
fiduciary deposit, total
return swap
Forward loan purchase gives the customer an opportunity to create a financial
transaction which represents an option to purchase a loan in the future. The object is
linked to the loan module in SAP.
Fiduciary deposits are equivalent to asset swaps, that is, they behave like a credit
portfolio plus an interest rate swap. The credit portfolio (the pool of assets) is chosen by
the depositor, who bears all credit risk.
A total return swap (payer) is a bilateral financial transaction where the counterparties
swap the total return of a share in exchange for periodic cash flows, typically a floating
rate such as LIBOR +/- a basis point spread and a guarantee against any capital losses.
All companies that use forward
loan purchases, fiduciary
deposits, and total return
swaps
