To Block or To Post? It’s Up To You (40.2024)

SAP software offers features that simplify your SME’s operations. Every week, we share tips that highlight how these features can benefit your business.

This week, we’ll show you how SAP Business One allows you to configure policies to block or allow transactions without a project code or distribution rule, ensuring tighter financial control.

 

Running projects and managing cost accounting? You probably invested significant effort in planning and initial definitions – project codes, cost centers, distribution rules, and more. Everything to ensure that each transaction is recorded with the right details and allocated to the right project or cost centers. But even when thorough prep is done, during the regular course of work there might be attempts to post transactions with lines that are relevant to cost accounting but without the assignment of distribution rule or project code. Depends on your business policy for handling such cases, SAP Business One enables you to define your preferences:

For each distribution rule, you can define whether block the transaction or allow posting it. Similarly, you can define whether to allow or block posting in case project code is missing in transaction line.

Available for SAP Business One, version for SAP HANA and SAP Business One
