What is integration between FI and other modules?

Answer Posted / varun kamboj

In SAP FI Integeration with other modules means how the
system maps with different modules and how the effect of
those is passed into FI Module.

SD will interact with FI, MM will interact with SD :-

Looking at MM and SD interaction first, take the scenario
of a third party order process. This process uses a
purchase order (which is sent to your vendor). Also invoice
verification is used further along the process to check
that the invoice you send to your customer is the same
material and quantity as that which the vendor sends to you

Billing is an SD function. But SAP needs to know, when
processing a customer's payment, to which GL account the
payment has to be processed. For instance payment of a UK
based material would be placed in a different GL account to
that of a non-UK based material. Furthermore, a UK based
customer may have a different GL account to that of an
Export customer. This is configured in Account
Determination.

ABAPers are there to essential do some bespoke development.
Your integration, or interaction, with them would be when
specifying the tables, fields, input fields, a simple
process explanation, data mapping (if doing an interface
from one system to another) etc.

link between SD and FI :-

1. Whenever you create a delivery with reference to a sales
order, goods movement takes place in the bacgground. eg. In
case of standard sales order, you create an outbound goods
delivery to the customer.
Here movement 601 takes place. This movement is configured
in MM. Also, this movement hits some G/L account in FI.
Every such movement of good s hits some G/L account.

2. The accounts posting in FI is done with reference to the
billing documents (invoice, debit note, credit note etc)
created in SD. Thus this is a link between SD and FI

3. Tax determination: In case of a tax determination also,
there is a direct link between SD and MM

For SAP FI-MM T.Code OBYC is used to map.
