The integration cycle between FI and MM can be summarized as follows:

1. Purchase Requisition: A purchase requisition is created in the MM module when a


material is required. This requisition contains information such as material code, quantity,
and delivery date.

2. Purchase Order: Once the purchase requisition is approved, a purchase order is created in
the MM module. The purchase order contains information such as the vendor, material
code, quantity, and price.

3. Goods Receipt: When the material is received, a goods receipt document is created in the
MM module to record the receipt of the material. This document updates the inventory in
the MM module and creates an accounting document in the FI module.

4. Invoice Receipt: When the vendor invoice is received, an invoice receipt document is
created in the MM module to record the receipt of the invoice. This document updates the
accounts payable in the FI module and creates an accounting document in the FI module.

5. Payment: When the invoice is due for payment, a payment document is created in the FI
module, which updates the accounts payable and bank accounts.

6. Accounting Entries: The accounting entries are created automatically in both the FI and
MM modules during the above steps. These entries are necessary for financial
reporting and analysis.

The integration cycle between SD and MM can be summarized as follows:

1. Sales Order: A sales order is created in the SD module when a customer places an order
for a product. This order contains information such as the material code, quantity, and
delivery date.

2. Availability Check: When a sales order is created, an availability check is performed in the
MM module to confirm that the required quantity of the material is available in stock or
can be procured in time. If the material is not available, a purchase requisition is created in
the MM module to procure the required quantity.

3. Delivery: Once the material is available, a delivery document is created in the SD module
to initiate the shipment of the material to the customer. This document updates the
inventory in the MM module and creates an accounting document in the FI module.

4. Goods Issue: When the material is shipped, a goods issue document is created in the MM
module to record the removal of the material from inventory. This document updates the
inventory in the MM module and creates an accounting document in the FI module.

5. Billing: When the material is shipped, a billing document is created in the SD module to
invoice the customer for the product. This document updates the accounts receivable in the
FI module and creates an accounting document in the FI module.

6. Payment: When the invoice is due for payment, a payment document is created in the FI
module, which updates the accounts receivable and bank accounts.

7. Accounting Entries: The accounting entries are created automatically in both the SD
and MM modules during the above steps. These entries are necessary for financial
reporting and analysis.

The integration cycle between FI and SuccessFactors can be summarized as follows:

1. Employee Data: Employee data such as name, address, job title, and compensation
information are created or updated in SuccessFactors.

2. Payroll: The payroll process is initiated in the SuccessFactors system based on the
employee data. The payroll process calculates the employee's net pay, taxes, and
deductions.

3. Payroll Posting: Once the payroll is processed, the payroll posting is initiated in the
SuccessFactors system. These posting transfers payroll data to the FI module for posting
to the financial ledger.

4. Posting to Financial Ledger: The payroll data is posted to the FI module, which updates
the general ledger accounts related to payroll, such as salaries, taxes, and benefits.

5. Financial Reporting: The financial reporting process is initiated in the FI module, which
generates financial statements such as the balance sheet, income statement, and cash flow
statement.

6. Analytics: The analytics and reporting features in SuccessFactors and the FI module
enable analysis of key performance indicators (KPIs) related to payroll and financial
performance.
