Maybe you've heard of "the Universal Journal" which is one of the most key innovations in SAP S/4HANA Finance. So you may be wondering what exactly makes the Universal Journal so Universal when compared to its predicessor code block in SAP's ERP Financials and even earlier versions. I like to think of in terms of the "ity's" - unity and versatility.
Unity meaning it provides a single and universal view of the truth for all your transactions arne financial reports without needing inefficient and redundant reconcilliations.
Versatility meaning is provides that universal key that opens the door to extend all your different reporting needs to one versatile coding block.
