Assignment Description
This assessment will be completed in groups of four students. Groups will be formed within the first two weeks of class. Each group is required to complete four tasks (by providing screenshots) and answer the related questions.
Task 1: Financials
Display General Ledger Account
Use the SAP Fiori Launchpad to display a General Ledger (G/L) account within your chart of accounts. Businesses typically maintain multiple bank accounts (e.g. payroll, general checking, and money market) reflected on their balance sheets. Each G/L account associated with a company code contains a chart of accounts and company code-specific information. This allows multiple company codes to share a chart of accounts while maintaining their unique information and settings. To find G/L Account Master Data, select the tile “Manage G/L Account Master Data.” Choose “GBI Global Group” (GL00) in the Chart of Accts field. Locate account 1000000 to display its G/L account master data. Take a screenshot of the displayed information and include it here. (Note: Arrive at “G/L Account Master Data” for G/L account 1000000. See page 31 on SAP Tutorial.)
