Course Overview
SAP S/4HANA Finance configuration and End-User processes as compared to SAP FICO
SAP S/4HANA Finance Training (vs SAP FICO) is a focused and practical course designed to help learners understand the key differences, innovations, and functional changes introduced in SAP S/4HANA Finance compared to the traditional SAP ECC FICO system.
This course prepares students to understand both configuration and end-user processes in SAP S/4HANA Finance, with special emphasis on how classic FI and CO concepts have evolved in the S/4HANA environment. It explains the new integration of FI and CO, the Business Partner concept, the Universal Journal (ACDOCA), and the impact of simplification on financial processes and reporting.
The training covers essential areas such as General Ledger and Cost Element master data integration, reconciliation ledger concepts, posting logic changes, Business Partner configuration for customers and vendors, SAP S/4HANA native capabilities, and new asset accounting. Learners will also gain insight into ledger configuration with accounting principles, currency settings, depreciation areas, and architectural changes in asset accounting tables.
In addition, the course highlights changes in period-end closing, cost center planning, GL planning, and the role of SAP Fiori and SAP Business Client in SAP S/4HANA Finance. Each topic is explained with a clear and structured approach to help learners connect theory with real project and support scenarios.
This course is ideal for SAP FICO consultants, finance professionals, end users, and learners who want to transition from SAP ECC to SAP S/4HANA Finance or prepare for SAP S/4HANA Finance project work and certifications.
