METHOD AND DEVICE FOR GENERATING ACCOUNTING VOUCHER BASED ON
SAP SYSTEM
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of computer technology, and
more particularly
to a method and a device for generating an accounting voucher based on SAP.
Description of Related Art
[0002] Current financial bookkeeping by means of SAP (System APplications)
devices is divided
into the two modes of manual bookkeeping and programming-mode bookkeeping.
Manual bookkeeping is completed via standard transaction codes provided by
SAP.
Programming-mode bookkeeping is completed via the ABAP programming language
that
invokes the standard bookkeeping BAPI function provided by SAP.
[0003] Of the aforementioned two bookkeeping modes, the programming-mode
bookkeeping is
characteristic of being highly effective and flexible as compared with the
manual
bookkeeping, but at each new addition of a bookkeeping business or a change in
a
bookkeeping item, it is required to newly add corresponding codes or amend the
related
codes to adapt to the change in the business, however, as seen from the
software design
principle, such programming-mode bookkeeping violates the rules of
maintainability and
reusability in the software design, and tends to affect existing bookkeeping
businesses.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0056] To make more lucid and clear the objectives, technical solutions and
advantages of the
present invention, technical solutions in the embodiments of the present
invention will be
described more clearly and completely below with reference to the accompanying
drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Apparently, the
embodiments
described below are merely partial, rather than the entire, embodiments of the
present
invention. All other embodiments achievable by persons ordinarily skilled in
the art on
the basis of the embodiments in the present invention without creative effort
shall all fall
within the protection scope of the present invention.
[0057] Business data input in SAP devices can be divided into business data
that are associated
with accounting vouchers (namely data required to be used in generating
accounting
7
Date Recue/Date Received 2022-01-31
CA 03150626 2022-01-31
vouchers) and business data that are irrelevant to accounting vouchers (namely
data not
required or rarely required to be used in generating accounting vouchers). In
prior-art
technology the SAP device does not process the business data, and the
accounting
voucher is directly generated; since the business of an enterprise often
changes, and
generation of the accounting voucher needs to be changed with the change in
the
enterprise business, it is thus required to frequently alter the accounting
voucher
generating codes, whereby manpower is wasted. In the embodiments of the
present
invention, the bookkeeping function of the SAP device is separated out, and
the
accounting voucher is generated according to configuration rules, whereby it
is made
possible during use for the user to select or define configuration rules on
his/her own
initiative according to business features and requirements, and it is not
required to amend
the original codes, so the extensibility, maintainability and reusability of
the device are
enhanced.
[0058] Embodiment 1
[0059] As shown in Fig. 1, there is provided a method of generating an
accounting voucher based
on SAP, and the method comprises:
[0060] receiving business data integrated with accounting events as
dimensions;
[0061] searching for configuration information corresponding to the accounting
events in pre-
stored configuration data according to the accounting events, and generating a
first
accounting voucher according to the configuration information, wherein the
configuration information includes: accounting voucher structures of the
various
accounting events and calculating rules of various fields in the accounting
voucher, and
wherein the accounting voucher structures include: voucher headers and voucher
row
items.
[0062] As should be noted, the business data in the above method is data
associated with
enterprise business. Business order data mainly indicates data that is related
to accounting
8
Date Recue/Date Received 2022-01-31
CA 03150626 2022-01-31
and bookkeeping, can be information input by users themselves, and can also be
information automatically recognized by the device through such business
orders as sales
orders, purchasing orders, expense orders, and carry-over orders, etc. The
accounting
events can be differentiated according to properties and types of business
funds on
account as they actually occur, such as collections, repayments, carry-over
funds, income
costs, consignment and joint funds, and taxes, etc., and each accounting event
can be
marked with a field code; in the method provided by the embodiments of the
present
invention, once the code of an accounting event is input, all business data
under this
accounting event code will be received. One accounting event inevitably
corresponds to
one type of accounting voucher, and the subsequent generation of the
accounting voucher
takes the accounting event as the generating unit. Business data integrated
with
accounting events as dimensions specifically includes analyzing, sorting and
concluding
business order data, and splitting each business order into one or more
accounting
event(s). The accounting voucher structures include headers and row items of
accounting
vouchers; as shown in Fig. 2, searching for configuration information
corresponding to
the accounting events is to base on the accounting events to correspond to one
type of
accounting voucher and to obtain the calculating rules of the various fields
in this type of
accounting voucher, so as to ascertain the headers and the row items to be
included in the
accounting voucher and the values of the headers and the row items, thus
generating a
first accounting voucher. The accounting voucher structures and the
calculating rules of
the various fields in the above method are preset, so once the accounting
events have been
well determined, it is possible to directly search for the configuration
information
required to generate the accounting voucher according to the accounting
events, and the
first accounting voucher can be generated by executing the configuration
information. It
the calculating rules corresponding to the accounting events cannot be found
from the
preset calculating rules, it is further possible to invoke configuration data
according to
the accounting events via an external interface.
[0063] The step of generating a first accounting voucher according to the
configuration
9
Date Recue/Date Received 2022-01-31
CA 03150626 2022-01-31
information includes:
[0064] traversing the accounting voucher structures of the various accounting
events in the
configuration information, determining the voucher headers of the first
accounting
voucher, and determining the voucher row items of the first accounting voucher
according
to configuration conditions of the voucher row items; and
[0065] traversing calculating rules of the various fields in the configuration
information, and
determining calculating rules of various fields in the first accounting
voucher according
to configuration conditions of the calculating rules.
[0066] As should be noted, each accounting event can correspond to one type of
accounting
voucher structure, the accounting voucher structures are preset in the device,
the
calculating rules of the fields correspond to the various fields in the
accounting voucher,
and likewise preset in the device, accordingly, once the accounting events
have been
determined, the headers and the row items of the corresponding accounting
voucher and
the values of the headers and the row items can then be configured and
determined
according to their respective configuration conditions; the voucher headers
are not
equipped with configuration condition, the row items of the voucher and the
field
calculating rules in the row items of the voucher are equipped with
corresponding
configuration conditions, and the corresponding row items and calculating
rules can be
configured only after the business data has satisfied the corresponding
configuration
conditions. If there is a newly added accounting event or accounting voucher
field, it is
then required to provide the newly added accounting event with an accounting
voucher
structure and to provide the newly added field with a calculating rule.
[0067] The calculating rules of the fields of the accounting voucher include
one or more selected
from directly allocating, form enquiring, derivatively calculating, and code
enhancing.
[0068] When the calculating rule is a directly allocating rule, field
calculation of the first
accounting voucher includes: directly assigning random one or more field(s) in
the
Date Recue/Date Received 2022-01-31
CA 03150626 2022-01-31
business order data to the fields of the first accounting voucher.
[0069] When the calculating rule is a form enquiring rule, field calculation
of the first accounting
voucher includes: basing on random one or more field(s) in the business order
data to
search out from a condition intermediate table one or more field(s)
corresponding thereto,
and assigning the same to the fields of the first accounting voucher.
[0070] When the calculating rule is a deriving rule, field calculation of the
first accounting
voucher includes: basing on random one or more field(s) in the business order
data to
employ a derivation table to derive one or more field(s) corresponding
thereto, and
assigning the same to the fields of the first accounting voucher.
[0071] When the calculating rule is a code enhancing rule, field calculation
of the first accounting
voucher includes: basing on random one or more field(s) of the business order
data to
assign the same to the fields of the first accounting voucher through ABAP
language
programming. The code enhancing rule is to realize calculation of the fields
of the first
accounting voucher through the mode of programming directly by the user, and
the code
enhancing rule mainly functions to supplement the directly allocating rule,
the form
enquiring rule and the deriving rule, so as to make the method disclosed by
the
embodiments of the present invention more widely applicable.
[0072] In actual use, there is a need for the user to merge accounting
vouchers, so the method
disclosed by the embodiments of the present invention further comprises:
summarizing
the first accounting voucher with designated dimensions, and generating a
second
accounting voucher.
[0073] The designated dimensions in the above method are random one or more
field(s) in the
first accounting voucher. Summarizing the first accounting voucher with
designated

CA 03150626 2022-01-31
[0074] dimensions can be to summarize with client codes, to summarize with
payment modes,
etc.
[0075] For access with the SAP device, the configuration data is invoked by
employing an
external interface according to the accounting events in the embodiments of
the present
invention. The first accounting voucher or second accounting voucher as
generated can
be returned via the external interface to the SAP device to be presented
therein.
[0076] As shown in Fig. 3, a device for generating an accounting voucher based
on SAP as
created on the basis of the above method comprises:
[0077] a data receiving module, for receiving business data integrated with
accounting events as
dimensions;
[0078] an SAP module, for employing an external interface to invoke
configuration data
according to the accounting events;
[0079] a voucher generating module, for generating a first accounting voucher,

wherein the configuration information includes: accounting voucher structures
of the
various accounting events and calculating rules of various fields in the
accounting
voucher, and wherein the accounting voucher structures include: voucher
headers and
voucher row items; and
[0081] a calculating module, for generating the first accounting voucher
according to the
configuration information.
[0082] The calculating module further includes a summarizing module for

[0132] S03 ¨ traversing accounting voucher structures of the various
accounting events in the
configuration information, and determining a voucher structure of the first
accounting
voucher. Further, step S03 further includes: judging whether the first
accounting voucher
structure configuration is enabled, if not, traversing anew.
[0133] As should be noted, during the process of determining the voucher
structure of the first
accounting voucher, it can be determined whether to configure the row items of
the
Date Recue/Date Received 2022-01-31
CA 03150626 2022-01-31
accounting voucher according to preset conditions of the various row items,
for instance,
if the payment mode in the business bookkeeping data satisfies a certain
preset payment
mode condition of the row items of the accounting voucher, this row item is
configured,
if not, this row item is not configured. Judging the enabling of the
accounting voucher
structure configuration in step S03 is to judge whether the business data
satisfies the
configuration conditions of the row items of the accounting voucher.
[0134] The voucher structure of the first accounting voucher determined
according to the
accounting events includes the following:
[0135] Voucher Headers
[0136] voucher type BLART.
[0137] reference to XBLNR calculating policy.
[0138] voucher date BLDAT.

[0157] SO4 - traversing calculating rules of the various fields in the
configuration information,
and respectively determining calculating rules of various fields in the first
accounting
voucher. Further, step SO4 further includes: judging whether field calculating
rules are
enabled, if not, traversing anew.
[0158] As should be noted, each field may include plural calculating rules, it
is therefore required
to determine from the plural calculating rules one that is suitable for the
business data;
accordingly, similar to the configuration conditions of the aforementioned row
items,
corresponding conditions are also provided for the configuration of the field
calculating
rules. The corresponding field calculating rules are configured only when the
business
data satisfies the configuration conditions of the field calculating rules.
Judging the
enabling of the calculating rules in step SO4 is to judge whether the business
data satisfies
the configuration conditions of the calculating rules.
[0159] According to the aforementioned voucher structure, the calculating
rules of the various
fields in the first accounting voucher are configured as follows:
[0160] Voucher Headers
[0161] voucher type BLART, calculating policy being directly allocating, value
being: fixed
value SK.
[0162] reference to XBLNR, calculating policy being directly allocating, value
