What is an integration point between SD AND MM?
Link Between SAP SD, MM & FI
The link between SD and MM :-
1. When you create sales order in SD, all the details of the items are copied from Material master of MM.
2. MRP and availability check related data is also taken from MM although you control this data in SD also.
3. While you create inbound/outbound delivery with reference to a sales order, the shipping point determination takes place with the help of the loading group, plant data, shipping conditions etc. This also refers to Material Master.
4. The material which you are entering in a sales order must be extended to the sales area of your sales order/customer otherwise you cannot transact with this material.
There are many such links between SD and MM.
Now the link between SD and FI :-
1. Whenever you create a delivery with reference to a sales order, goods movement takes place in the background. 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 goods 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 .

What are MRP types?
Material Requirement Planning is concept of planning for the demand, whether we need the material
- to be planned internally
- to be procured externally
- to be planned in external system (ex APO
- No planning
- time based planning
What is use of customer group?
Customer group is used for generating statistics and also used to give group pricing, and discounts etc...
What is the difference between incomplete order and backorder processing?
Incomplete orders are the orders which have not maintained Completely as to full fill the business requirement to place the order ( as defined in incompletion proc by
business).
The backorder is the order in which has not confirmed in Full or not confirmed at a requested delivery date. (Certain delivery date)
What are the Steps for the End-user Training in SAP-SD module?
1.we will decide who are the team members of end users
2. Arrange one common place for training
3.In a day with pre planned material and using development system with some hard copies of various transaction codes which will use by end users will distribute to them and ask them to practice
4.it is generally like a in house training which may remains for 2 day's
5.after the training we will give them hard copies of list of transaction codes with narration which are relevant to their modules like SD related and PM related etc
Why does the customer master have different views?
The main purpose of the customer views is for each dept to determine the roles effectively in customer
GENERAL DATA- deals with all the details regarding the customer
COMPANY CODE DATA- deals with financial aspects.
SALES AREA DATA- deals with sales; billing; shipping details along with the partner determination
What is t-code for listing the blocked documents?
VKM1 is for blocked document, VKM2 Released Doc.
What is batch split?
If a material is managed in batches then you can carry out a batch split for every component. This means that if you Split a batch, you assign more than one batch to one
Component. In this case, each batch is displayed as a Separate component in the component overview.
Batch splits can only be triggered manually in the Production order.
The following requirements must be met for batch splitting:
(1)The material master record of the material must specify That the material is managed in batches.
(2)Batches must exist for the material.
What is Product attributes?
What is difference between SD account key and FI account key?
Account key is created and provided by FI. Account key determines the
G/L account to which the amount is to be posted. SD defines account key
in pricing and FI uses it for posting taxes.
To the maximum both are one and same to find the right G/L account through condition technique .SD Account key will be from Pricing procedure and the FI Account key is from the tax procedure. as far as my knowledge is concerned both the Key purpose is same.
Acct keys are defined in FI only, SD people only use them, say in pricing. But ultimately they r used for posting the amounts to relevant GL accounts only
What is a variant and its use?
How is credit control determined?
Credit control is determined in the combination
COMPANY CODE + CUSTOMER RISK CATEGORY + CREDIT GROUP =
CREDIT CONTROL AREA
One Company code can be assigned too many credit control areas And multiple company codes are not assigned to one credit Control area.
What are the parameters in FD32?
FD32 Maintains credit management records here we can give the amount of the customer WHAT IS HIS credit limit.
U can see address of the customer, Central data, status and payment history of the customer.
What is the difference between routine and requirements?
I know requirement in SD point of view
1. Requirements are used in different area of SD, for example requirement in pricing procedure, it restrict the access of the condition type. for example the rebate condition type bo01 has the requirement 24 it means that this condition type should appear in the billing document. Routine means the program written for the requirement.ie the logic written in the ABAP code.
What is condition supplement and why is it used?
A condition supplement is a group of conditions that should be applied every time a certain condition is found. for Eg: If u define a material price, u will enter condition records for that material and the corresponding price. If u also want to give discount to that material every time the price is determined, u can enter the discount condition type as a condition supplement. So whenever the price is determined for the material, it will automatically includes the discount condition records.
What is the difference between milestone and periodic billing?
Periodic: - full amount in each bill till contract period
Milestone: - partial amount in each bill till full amount is billed.
Milestone billing is a billing plan type where the customer have to pay the amount in parts within the billing date e.g. suppose the bill amount of the customer is 1000 usd, the customer can pay 200usd,300usd as mentioned on the Agreement whereas in periodic plan type the customer have to pay the amount in a regular periodic interval.i.e. The customer have to pay the 1000usd in 1 year then the amount payable by the customer is 1000/12.
What is the landscape?
What is the difference between Static and Dynamic Credit Check?
They both are belong to automatic credit check
The only difference is Dynamic contains a time/horizon/attach period .This time period used by the system where we specify time in months .EX: 2 months .System will use this period to take open orders, open deliveries etc. to get credit exposure .Within this attached time period not after this specified period, u have to do delivery after this horizon period say 3 months latter the delivery date so system will not calculate this date
static check will carry out the open sales orders +open deliveries +open billing + open items,
dynamic check= static check+ time horizon

GL ACCOUNT CANNOT BE DETERMINED DURING INVOICING MOVEMENT TYPE NOT FOUND DURING DELIVERY STORAGE UNIT NOT FOUND IN THE BIN ERROR DURING TRANSFER ORDER CREATION FOR DELIVERY
ROUTE NOT DETERMINED DURING DELIVERY TOR CANNOT BE DONE DURING DELIVERY ETC...
What is a field catalog?
What is the difference between condition type EK01 and EK02?
Ek01- the result of unit costing can be used as base for price (pr00) determination.
Ek02- the result of unit costing simply taken as a statistical value
What is the Function of item category group?
The item category group determines how a material is processed in the sales order. It defines, for example, that pricing does not take place for a free of charge item, such
as a business gift; or that inventory management is not carried out for a service. When processing sales and distribution documents, the system uses the item category
group to determine the item category. The system determines the item category based on the item category group of the material and the current business transaction, and proposes
it in the respective document.
When creating the material types non-stock material and
services, DIEN is proposed in both cases for the item category group, because the order processing for both material types is identical: for example, pricing is carried out for both, but no availability check.
