SAP Certified Application Professional – Financials in SAP S/4HANA for SAP ERP Finance Experts (2021) — Question 5

What are the consequences in an SAP ERP system when activating the business function EA-FIN to support conversion to SAP S/4HANA?

Answer options

• A. Parallel ledgers are available.
• B. New asset accounting is activated.
• C. New depreciation engine is used.
• D. Period posting (ASKB) became obsolete.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

Enabling the business function EA-FIN activates new asset accounting, which is essential for the transition to SAP S/4HANA, thus making option B correct. Options A and C refer to features that may be relevant but are not the direct result of activating EA-FIN. Option D is incorrect because period posting is still relevant in certain contexts, even if it may be less prevalent.
