Company: A Company is the unit to which your financial statements are created and can have one or
many company codes assigned to it. A company is equivalent to your legal business organization. Consolidated financial statements are based on the companys financial statements. Companies are defined in configuration and assigned to company codes. Each company code must use the same COA (Chart of Accounts) and Fiscal Year. Also note that local currency for the company can be different.
Company Code: Company Codes are the smallest unit within your organizational structure and is
used for internal and external reporting purposes. Company Codes are not optional within SAP and are required to be defined. Financial transactions are viewed at the company code level. Company Codes can be created for any business organization whether national or international. It is recommended that once a Company Code has been defined in Configuration with all the required
settings then other company codes later created should be copied from the existing company code. You can then make changes as needed. This reduces repetitive input of information that does not change from company code to company code as well as eliminate the possibility of missed data input.

What is the meaning of direct Quotation / Indirect Quotation to maintain exchange rates?
This component enables you to manage exchange rates for each currency pair using direct or indirect quotation. The type of quotation used is dependent on the market standard. You can define the type of quotation per client and currency pair (business transaction). Indirect quotation has not been required until now, because direct quotation was usually used for exchange rates. With the start of the dual currency phase of the European Monetary Union (EMU), indirect quotation is now used within Europe for exchange rates with the euro. Indirect quotation is also becoming more widely accepted internationally. Until now, there were many limitations involved in processing indirect exchange rates.
Direct quotation is where the cost of one unit of foreign currency is given in units of local currency, whereas indirect quotation is where the cost of one unit of local currency is given in units of foreign currency.

No, Reconciliation a/cs( also called Control A/cs in pure accounting) are the net figures for items such as Drs and Crs of an organization. since it would not be possible to show the complete list of all vendors in the B/S, a recon a/c is maintained for the purpose. However, the main feature of a recon a/c is that the debits MUST equal the credits in each entry, and so no mistakes in entries are possible (at least mathematically). Only if the organization has a handful of suppliers and customers is it advised that no recon a/c is opened.

Customer credit limit defined at company code level or credit control area level?
You can assign a credit limit to a group of customers, as well as to an individual customer. If a company has different branches, you would define the credit limit for just one customer in this group (the head office) and this customer account then becomes the credit account. Credit limits are normally specified by credit management
staff in the individual customer master records. You can specify individual credit limits for each credit control area. You can expand your credit control for a customer by specifying a central credit limit for all credit control areas to which that customer is assigned. The total of the limits at the level of the credit control area must not exceed the total limit for all credit control areas. The credit limits at the control area level are checked during sales order processing. Credit and risk management takes place in the credit control area. According to your corporate requirements, you can implement credit management that is centralized, decentralized, or somewhere in between. - For example, if your credit management is centralized, you can define one credit control area for all of your company codes. - If, on the other hand, your credit policy requires decentralized credit management, you can define credit control areas for each company code or each group of company codes. Credit limits and credit exposure are managed at both credit control area and customer level. You set up credit control areas and other data related to credit management in Customizing for Financial Accounting. For more information, see the IMG> Enterprise Structure > Definition or > Assignment > Financial Accounting and then > Maintain credit control area. You assign customers to specific credit control areas and specify the appropriate credit limits in the customer master record.

What is Material Period? What is the transaction code used to execute the same?
You can execute period closing up to the end of the current fiscal year. The period closing program updates the administration record, thus ensuring that the stock data of the material master are updated. If, for example, you want to close your periods up to 12/1999, you are not allowed to post values in 10/1999. Therefore, if you still want to make postings in period t, you should execute period closing only for a maximum of t+1 periods. First of all, you should check to which period the period closing was executed. This ensures that you can subsequently carry out period closing for the remaining periods of the current fiscal year.

What is Valuation class? State the usage of valuation class in FI-MM integration?
Valuation class it is used in FI and MM integration. It determines the g/l accounts to be posted automatically (Ex Raw material or Finished goods). The Valuation Class in the Accounting 1 View in Material Master is the main link between Material Master and Finance. This Valuation Class along with the combination of the transaction keys (BSX,WRX,GBB,PRD ) defined above determines the GL account during posting. We can group together different materials with similar properties by valuation class. Eg Raw material, Finsihed Goods, Semi Finished. We can define the following assignments in customizing : All materials with same material type are assigned to just one valuation class. Different materials with the same material type can be assigned to different valuation classes. Materials with different material types are assigned to a single valuation class. Valuation classes are linked to valuation class in T code OBYC.
