Who it's for: Financial-accounting and finance-transformation consultants — and business users moving into an SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition finance role — who want a recognized associate credential proving they can configure and operate core Financial Accounting: the general ledger, accounts payable, accounts receivable, asset accounting, and period- and year-end close, as a mentored member of an implementation project team.
The SAP® C_S4CFI certification verifies that you can configure and run core Financial Accounting in SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition as a mentored member of an implementation project team, not just describe it in theory. It spans the deployment tasks that stand up a public-cloud system — fit-to-standard workshops, SAP Central Business Configuration, extensibility, integration, data migration, and testing — alongside the accounting substance: FI master data and the general ledger, accounts payable and accounts receivable, asset accounting, period and year-end entity close, and financial reporting. Because it is delivered as a System-Based Assessment, the exam rewards applied execution in a live system over isolated recall, and it is written for the consultant profile at an entry-level, project-participation depth.
The blueprint areas to focus your preparation on.
Executing the core implementation tasks that deploy a public-cloud system — running fit-to-standard workshops, configuring with SAP Central Business Configuration, setting up authorizations and business roles, extending applications, wiring integrations, migrating legacy data with the migration cockpit, and testing configured processes before go-live.
Customizing and maintaining the master-data and general-ledger foundation of Financial Accounting — chart of accounts, G/L accounts, document types and numbering, field status groups, tax codes, account determination, and extension ledgers — so that record-to-report postings behave correctly across the finance close.
Configuring and running the payables side of finance — supplier down payments and clearing, the automatic payment run with its company-code, payment-method and bank settings, and process automation for blocked and parked supplier invoices using flexible workflow and situation handling.
Setting up receivables processes — special G/L transactions and their integration with sales, cash application and rule-based bank-statement clearing, dispute and collections management, advanced credit management, and the dunning run — including the intelligent-automation options layered on top of them.
Configuring fixed-asset accounting end to end — asset classes, account determination, master-data validation and substitution, procurement of assets through materials management, down payments for assets under construction, depreciation runs, revaluations, and year-end closing activities across accounting principles.
Performing entity-level period and year-end close in Financial Accounting and delivering its reporting — accruals management for purchase orders and service entry sheets, financial statement versions with semantic tags, balance sheets and income statements, the indirect cash flow statement, and analytical finance reporting.
