Cash Management
1 IntroductionCash Management in SAP ERP Financials provides three basic functions:
Quickly and reliably transfers all cash-relevant information from internal and external sources into the cash management system (inbound data)
Performs analysis and reporting of current and future cash flows to help you make cash management decisions (analysis and decision)
Communicates with banks and other business partners based on the results of the decision process (outbound data)
SAP ERP Financials offers the following tools, designed to make cash flows clear:
The cash position, which illustrates short-term movements in the bank accounts
The liquidity forecast, which illustrates medium-term movements in subledger accounts
The cash position shows how your bank accounts move in the next few days. Meanwhile, the liquidity forecast illustrates liquidity changes in the subledger accounts. Functions are also supported which can be used to obtain relevant information on forecast payment flows. This information appears in the form of memo records in the cash position, or as planned items in the liquidity forecast.
This document provides an overview how to use the SAP ERP Cash Management functionality. The scope item includes the following sequence:
Posting of a vendor invoice in local and foreign currency
Posting of a customer invoice in local currency (from a sales order)
Posting of planning items and memo records
Execution of the report showing cash position and the liquidity forecast. All posted documents are displayed on the value date basis.
After posting the manual bank statement, the flow between the planning levels is demonstrated
Due to the actual postings of the bank statement, the memo records are archived automatically (by using a special report).
The function of cash concentration illustrate how to identify the relevant amounts and transfer them from one account to another.
1.1 PurposeThe cash position overview provides information on the current financial state of the bank accounts. It is the starting point for cash concentration in which the balances from various bank accounts are concentrated in one target account, taking minimum balances and payment optimization into consideration.
The example in this document shows a posting process that affects liquidity (customer invoice and incoming payment). It presents the main functions for retrieving information about the liquidity status.

4 Process Steps
4.1 Posting of a Planning Memo Record for Recurring Payments (Manual Planning)
UseThe following example describes how to enter a memo record. This example illustrates a monthly recurring payment. Since there is no invoice existing in FI, this memo record must be created, so the cash management report includes these expenses.
For archiving the advice, a report compares the bank statement with the memo record. The memo item is identified because of the amount and archived.
In case of differences, the result is represented. Due to this functionality, the user has the possibility to decide whether the line item is archived or not.
A special planning type YB is provided to show credit limits on house bank account level. This planning type can be selected with grouping YCREDIT. YB is excluded in all other groups.
Procedure1. Access the transaction choosing one of the following navigation options:
Option 1: SAP Graphical User Interface (SAP GUI)
SAP ECC menu

8. Choose Enter.
9. Save your entries.
ResultThe selected number of memo records (for example, 12) is generated and posted. The memo records have updated the financial status in cash management and can be found under the corresponding planning level (for example, DI).
4.2 Archiving the Memo Record
UseThe planning memo records of the cash position and the liquidity forecast are managed with this transaction. The system displays the memo records in a list. You can select an individual record for display and modification.
In the list, you can select memo records to transfer them afterwards into an archive. After they are archived, the records are no longer relevant to the cash position and liquidity forecast, but are still available for evaluations (for example, for calculating the average interest on fixed-term deposits from last year).
Memo records in the archive can be processed in a similar manner. To list these records, specify the required archive category during the transaction. The system displays a list of the memo records stored in this archive.
If such records are selected, they can then be reactivated later.

The system prints the outcome of the cash concentration process in the form of payment orders to banks. It also creates the payment advices needed for determining the new bank account balances.
