What you have in your hands is a unique book. You may have seen several books
on SAP Financial Accounting (FI) that are available in the market, but none of them
are as comprehensive as this, covering the gamut of Financial Accounting in SAP
Financials including—besides the regular topics —FI-CA (Contract Accounts Receiv-
able and Payable), Consolidation (New), FI-LA (Lease Accounting), FI-TV (Travel
Management), and much more. The book is also unique in another sense: It gives
you much more than information on SAP FI, because it enables you to get started
in any SAP implementation project with all the knowledge you need to understand
the methods behind creating a project before you actually jump into customizing
SAP FI. In addition, this book also provides you with insight into technical and
functional upgrades.
For an easy understanding of the concepts and customizing steps discussed across
the chapters, we have followed a story-board approach with the case studies Mer-
cury and Orion. As you read through, you will notice that a story is being built to
configure these two corporations for SAP FI. Though these corporations are ficti-
tious, we are certain thatyou will feel as \iyou are actually configuring a real-world
situation in SAP when you see how the business requirements for these cases are
translated into FI settings. This information is supported in an easy-to-read walk-
through of concepts and customizing steps, and supported by numerous screen
shots from SAP ERP 6.0 and illustrations. You will also see that, in each of the 18
chapters, several tips and tricks are included to provideyou with additional insights
relevant for those unique situations. Besides the IMG menu path for customizing,
