Analyzing the reconciliation data

The best way to analyze the reconciliation data depends on your main business processes and your information requirements. The Operations Management - Financial Reconciliation (tfgld4595m000) session and the report options in the Print Reconciliation Data (tfgld4495m000) session enable you to create various views of the reconciliation data on various levels of detail.

For example, you can generate the reports:

  • By business object:

    • Order number
  • By reconciliation element:

    • Item
    • Business partner
    • Purchase office
  • By status:

    • Open/Active
    • Closed
  • By ledger account
  • By transaction type
