How to check in SM37 whether a monthly batch job finished correctly: the selection screen, the numbers and buttons on the job overview, how to read the job log, how a periodic job creates its next run, background-only variants that do not appear on the selection screen, and DB02 SQL for checking. Note: screens, menus and settings can differ by SAP release and system configuration. Screen labels are given with their English GUI names. SQL results are from a demo system. 1. SM37 selection screen (Simple Job Selection) Field Example Meaning Job name part of the name + * * means "any characters". If you know only part of the name, put * before and after it User name * The default is your own user ID. Jobs created by other users appear only after you change it to * Job status all except Sched. Released (waiting), Ready, Active (running), Finished (completed), Canceled (stopped with an error) Job start condition today to t...

Part 1 summarized IFRS 18 itself, Part 2 covered the Financial Statement Version (FSV) in SAP FI, and Part 3 covered the cost flow in SAP CO. All three answered the question of what the standard requires. This post changes the angle. Taking a practice case, it looks at what is actually touched in CO: which accounts are split, on what basis, how the categories are assigned to cost elements, and what follows in allocation, CO-PA and the income statement. Scope note: this is a generic practice note. Accounts are named, not coded, and no company-specific or system-specific information is included, only the structure and the order of the work. 1. IFRS 18 and CO Category Item Detail Requirement of the standard Three categories in the income statement IFRS 18 splits the income statement into three categories, operating, investing and financing, and requires two new subtotals: operating profit and profit before financing and income taxes. It applies to annual ...

Earlier posts covered IFRS 18 itself ( Part 1 ), the SAP FI side and the financial statement version ( Part 2 ), and the SAP CO cost flow behind operating profit ( Part 3 ). The previous post set the IFRS 18 work out in five stages and ended with a table of ten items to check before starting. This post expands those items into the queries that actually answer them. The same IFRS 18 project is not the same amount of work at every company. A company whose accounts are already split and one whose accounts are not, a company whose allocation cycles reference cost element groups and one that lists the cost elements individually, have a different scope to touch. That difference can be established by querying the system before starting. The T-Codes and tables below are SAP standard. What follows is the selection criteria, how to read the result, and how the scope of work splits depending on what comes back. No figures from any particular system are included. 1. Order of checks ...
